NEAR DYING
Frem an Awful Skin HumsuP.
Scratched Till Blood Rem.
Wasted to Skeleton.
cURED BY cUTIcURA
One Application Soothed Him to
Sleep. Cure Speedy
and Permanent.

"When my little boy was about three
months old his head broke out with o
rash. which was very itchy and ran CON
siderable watery fluid. We tried every
thing we could, but he got worse all the
time till 1t spread to his arms, legs, and
then to his entire body, and he got so
bad that he came near dying. The rash
would itch SO that he would scratch till
the blood ran, and q thin yellowish stuf
would be oil over his pillow In the morn
ing. I had to put mittens on his hands
to keep him from tearing his skin around
his wrists. He got SO weak and run
down that he took fainting spells like
we would think him dying. He was al
most q skeleton and his little hands
were thin like claws.
"He was bad about eight months
when we tried Cuticura Remedies. I.
had not laid him down In his cradle in
the daytime for O long time. He had
got so that he Just slept in q arms all
the time. I washed him with Cuticura
Soap and put on n application OF
Cuticura Ointment and he was 10
soothed that I put him in the cradle.
You don't know how glad / felt whenh 10
felt better. Ittook one bog Of Cutioura
ointment, pretty near m CAKE OF Cuu-
cura Soap, and about half @ bottle OF
Cuticura Resolvent, to cure. I think
our little boy would have died only for
the Cuticura Remedies, and I shall al
ways remain q firm friend of them"

GOOD TIMES FOR
| THE PAWNSHOPS
UNUSUAL NUMBER OF WATCHES
"SOAKED' AT HOLIDAY TIME,
Pawn Broker Inspectors Annual Re-
port Shows That Many Young Men
Celebrate "on Time Percentage
of Those Who Pawn Property Be-
cause of Dire Want Is Comparatively
Small. # 49,

More than one kind of "soaking' is
done in connection with the celebration
Of the big holidays. that come around
each year. Just before each important
period of rest and recreation over 400
young men about town "soak' their
watches and celebrate on their Hun-
Gle 80 money. The normal number of
the city's watch "soakersn is about
800 per month, but coming holiday
increases this by 400. TIT. IT,. :,
These are the facts shown by the re-
port of the city pawn broker inspector.
This does not indicate that hard times
are approaching, says Inspector Scallon,
but rather the contrary; for most of
these watches are redeemed within a
month. The 400 do not get their salary
in time to celebrate so they use the
watch to tide them over. -
The September report shows that the
city has been in good condition fnan.
cially and comparatively free from
crooks. ...
During August the customary 1,5OC
watches were pawned and 90 per cent
were redeemed. AS to stolen property
the report is the most favorable II
years. But $4,000 worth of property
was reported stolen and $4,000 worth
as lost. More than half of this prop
ertv was recovered.
The pawn broker reports make an ex
cellent barometer Of general conditions
say the police officials, and the last re
port indicates that Minneapolis is liv
ing we'll. Most of the property ha
been pawned by persons who hold pay
