FROM CALF OF THE LEG TO ANKLE
A SOLID SORE.

New Castle, Pa, July 90, 1905.
Three years ago q common boil ap.
peared on the calf Of my limb. Not yield
ing to simple home remedies, I consulted
a physician, who prescribed poultice,
fax seed, supposedly. By some fearful
mistake I was given corrosive subli-
mate, and after having it on for few
minutes I could endure the pain no
longer, so took off the application and
found that NY limb from the calfto the
ankle was in an awful condition. I i'm
mediately sent for another physician,
who told me had been poisoned. My
limb from the calf to the ankle was ono
solid inhamed sore. was advised to
begin s. 8. g., and improved rapidly
under it's use, but about this time had
an attack oftyphoid fever, and this set
tied in the original sore. This, of course,
caused back set, but having confidence
in the ability Of s. 8. g., I began it again
as soon as was over the fever, and to
make a long story short, was completely
and permanently cured. Two years have
elapsed, and have never had a return Of
the trouble. MRS. K. A. DUFFY,

NOTHING FOR THE KAW RIVER.


Washington, April 19.-Congress will
not authorize an appropriation for the
aKaw river at this session. The com.
mittee of commerce, at a meeting yes

mend to the senate an amendment to
the river and harbor bill, offered by
Senator Stone appropriating $4,000 for
the removal of the Instructions at the
mouth Of that river All of the rAm-
bers Of the committee voted against
the amendment except Senator Stone.
Those interested in the improvement
project said yesterday evening that no
further effort would be made to get an
appropriation for the Kaw until the
next session.

facts showing how swiftly justice Is

brought out in debate in the house
yesterday afternoon on bill providing
three additional United States judges

Tesentative Thomas, of Iowa, who
urged that 1t be passed at once in
order to meet conditions which Mr..
Thomas declared were deplorable with
reference to the trial of civil and GRIM
inal cases in the territory. 1t was sup
ported by Representative Little, of Ar
Kansas, a member Of the committee on
Indian affairs. Mr.. Little, in empha-
sizing the need Of more judges for the
Indian territory, declared that because
of the crowded condition of the court
dockets man on trial for his life was
given but one day in which to prove
his innocence. He said:
-The Indian territory jails are al
full Of people. The civil dockets are so
crowded that half Of the cases are not
called once a year. Owing to the large
amount Of court business In that ter
ritory 1t is costing the government

When you talk about being the worlds
leader in any one thing you have estab-
iished a wonderful standard of COMPARE
SON. Nothing could be greater and in
this day Of tremendous competition it
means more than you can really grasp
without study to say 'the greatest in the
world" Particularly is this true of a
medicine and it is such a strong testi-
monial of great merit that we cannot
help but express our satisfaction to learn
that CASCARETS has, to-day, the larg-
est sale of any similar medicines in the
world. In obtaining this, judicious news
paper advertising has played a very inn
portant part. but all the advertising and
push and energy would have counted for
naught unless CASCARETS had the
merit and would do all that's claimed for
them. Nothing has ever attained such
a large sale in the history of medicine.
Over ten million boxes a year and the
demand is growing rapidly. because the
people take them, like them, they are
cured and they recommend them to their
friends.

Books of Timber.

There is at Cassel a library prob

Der pages-possibly from wood blocks
and deals exclusively with timber.
The library in question is the Holz-
biblistek, which was compiled at the
end Of the last century by Karl
Schieldbach, and is composed Of about
five hundred volumes made from trees
in the park at Wilhelmshohe. Every
volume bears on a tab-not in
timber, but queerly enough, in moroc-
co-the name of the tree from which it
obtained. There are plates Of the
tree in all stages Of its growth, and
the letter-press is a treatise on the
foresting and natural history Of the
tree.

Later News About Suicide.

From Deseret News, Feb. 22nd.
 Concerning the reported death of Elder Lorenzo Crosby, who the dispatches state, committed suicide by shooting near Kansas City, Mo-, Saturday morning, a private wire was received in this city Saturday night stating that the wounded man was still alive, although in a precarious condi- tiOn.
 Word from President Ben E. Rich to President Joseph F. Smith states that Elder Crosby was in good spirits when he left Atlanta and that at that time there was not the least indica- tiOn that he would be led to com init suicide. President Rich was due in Kansas City this morning and will. fully investigate the causes leading up to the lament able tragedy.
 President James G. Dufin has also been instructed to do every thing possible for the wounded missionary and in the event of his death to have the remains carefully embalmed for shipment home.
 The friends of Elder Crosby
