BABY,S FUTURE. Something for Mothers tolThink About <. l

 Lives of Suffering and Sorrow . kyerted. And Happiness and Prosperity
 Assured by CgiicBEa Soap, Ointmeutand Pills When All Else Fails.

Every child born into the world with an inherited or early developed ten- dency to distressing, dishguring hu- mours of the skin, scalp and blood, becomes an object of the most tender solicitude, not only because of It's suffer- ing, but because of the dreadful fear that the disfguration is to be lifelong and mar it's future happiness and pros perity. Hence, it becomes the duty of mothers of such afflicted children to &C., quaint themselves with the best, the purest and most effective treatment available, viz, The Cuticura Treatment.
 Warm baths with Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the skin and scalp of crusts and scales, gentle applications of Cutlcura Ointment, to allay itching, irritation and inflammation, and soothe and heal, and mild doses of Cuticura Resolvent, to cool the blood in the severer cases, are all that can be desired for the speedy relief and permanent euro of skin tor tured infants and children, and the com fort of worn-out parents.
 Millions of women use Cuticura Soap, assisted by Cuticura Ointment. for pre- serving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair and hands, for annoy ing irritations and weaknesses. and for many sanative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves.

field company received on an average of $l2.25 per ton for all the iron they sold, netting them profit of s3.25 per ton. The Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad com pany realized an average of $11.2 per ton on all their iron, or a clear profit of $1 72 per ton.
 The scale base for mining coal in Ala bama should now be advanced at least five cents per ton, to more nearly conform to the general increased value of all manufactured products of our country 1 mine workers wages in this state have not advanced in the same proportion as | the selling price of iron. As proof of this We beg to submit for your consideration the following comparisons Iron has advanced since 1897 from an average selling price of $6OO per ton to an average selling price at the present time of $1300 per ton. or an advance of 116 ga per cent in the selling price of iron for the furnace operators. In the same period miners wages have advanced from 371s cents per ton In 1897 to 55 cents per ton for mining coal at present or a total ad- vance of 4s 2-3 per cent in mining as | against 116 2-3 per cent advance In the selling price of iron
 l When the minimum base for mining | coal in Alabama was fixed at 40 cents per ton. steam coal was sold freely at
 
 coal was sold as low as GO cent per ton The past year. with a 55-cent per ton maximum base for mining steam coal | sold for s1.20 per ton at the mine and in many instances sold at much higher figure. During the past year coal for domestic use has old for as high as g 50 and 8 per ton.
 Admission of Operators. fc aa Bt, 4t,ot they now receive on time contracts s1. 20 and $1. 25 per ton for steam coal from the rail road companies.
 It is generally known to those who are familiar with the coal trade that railroad companies purchase coal at a much less rate per ton than any other consumer because of the large contracts tho rail- roads make.
 We desire to call your special attention to the fact that when the minimum rate was 40 cents per ton and less. and when steam coal Is selling at s120 and s1.25 the mining rate Is but 55 cents per ton. The selling price of coal having advanced from 50 to 60 cents per ton, while the min ing rate has advanced but 15 cents per ton. This ought to be enough evidence in itself to secure an advance of cents per ton in the mining rate for the Alabama miners.
 In order to convince you that we arc not attempting to compel the operators of Alabama to concede more than tho operators in other mining states. we sub init for your consideration the following table of figures. which shows the mining rate last year and this, and the advance per ton which has been paid this year for mining coal
 We respectfully request that you give this statement your earnest and careful consideration.

England's Unique Liquor Law.

England's new liquor law, which be-
came operative at the beginning of the
present year, is so novel in some of its
features and its success thus far has
been so marked that it interests all
American observers. The law is so
com prebensivs in its scope that il
covers all classes of people who have
anything to do with intoxicants. Not
only saloonkeepers are affected, but
also clubs and associations, including
those at the top. All drinks are in.
cluded in its provisions, and it is a
misdemeanor even to "treat" person
in certain circumstances. The maxi.
mum penalty for selling liquor to a
habitual drinker is imprisonment with
hard labor, and the burden of proof of
innocence lies with the defendant, in.
stead Of the establishment of Gaze by
the prosecution.
A feature Of the law that has already
proved to be very effective is the pho.
tographing of all persons convicted as
habitual drunkards. Pictures of such
persons are exhibited in all places
where liquors are sold, and there are
heavy penalties for selling to the per.
sons so portrayed. The law is particn.
larly stringent in relation to spurious
clubs organized for the primary pur-
pose Of eyading liquor restrictions. 1t
is stated that "all dealers of the better
class seem to have accepted the law
gladly, because it helps them to con-
duct their places in more decent
manner"

The Sleeping Sickness.

British East Africa, a territory oi
100000 square miles, with a popula
ton of unnum bered millions, is threat
ened by the mysterious sleeping sick
ness," a disease which has already
wrought terrible havoc in Uganda.
DR.. G. Q. Low, who with DR.. Castel.
lani and DR.. Christy, was sent out to
Uganda on royal commission to in.
vestigate the malady, has just returned
to England, and the reports which he
and his colleagues have sent to the
foreign office and the Royal society
contain much new and important in.
formation on the nature of the disease
and its alarming and continued spread.
The disease has now been ravaging
Uganda for four years, and DR.. Low
estimates that 10000 natives have died
Of it, the majority of them within the
last two years. How it got into Ugan-
da cannot be discovered.
Not less than $4,000 natives are now
affected, and the disease is practically
invariably fatal. Moreover, the dis.
ease is increasing ia virulence in the
new areas.
The sleeping sickness" first mani
tests itself In slight change in the
mantal attitude of the victim, so slight
that the relatives are able to perceive
it before anyone else, even European
doctor. 1t attacks both sexes and all
ages. Then the patient becomes dull
in manner, next quite stupid, with a
heavy look about the face and swelling
of the lips. A disinclination to work
develops and the patient lies about,
taking less and less food. Lethargy,
rather than sleepiness, is the outward
sign. Tremors Of the arms aud tongue
succeed, and finally the victim falls
into comatose state, which ends in
death.
The commission made its way to En-
table, the seat of government in Ugan-
da, on the western side of Lake Vic
toria, and spent five months there
studying the disease. A hospital had
been especially erected by the govern.
ment, and Colonel Sadler, the commits
sioner, and DR.. Moffatt, the P. NJ. o.,
rendered every possible assistance.
The hospital accommodates sixteen
pstie is and Dr. Low and his col.
leagues treated their patients with var.
ious drugs, but without discovering
cure.
DR.. Low says that the disease is a
nervous complaint, consisting of 10.
flammation of the brain and mem.
branes of the brain, analogous to or
dinary meningitis, but the usual treat
ment has proved Of no avail.-London
