WONDERFUL CURE
OF SORE HANDS
~ cuticura After tho
Most Awful Suffering
Ever Experienced.
EIGHT DOCTORS
And Many Remedies Failed
to do 4 Cents Worth
of Good.

"About i've years ago 1 was troubled
with sore hands, so sore that when I
would put them in water the pain would
very nearly set me crazy, the skin would
peel off and the flesh would get hard
and break. There would be blood flow
ing from at least fifty places on each
hand. Words could never tell the suf-
fering 1 endured for three years. 1
tried everything that I was told to use
for fully three years, but could get no
relief. 1 tried at least eight different
doctors, but none of them seemed to do
me any good, as my hands were as bad
whenI got through doctoring as when
1 first began. l also tried many reme-
dies, but none of them ever did me one
cents worth of good. l was discour-
aged and heart-sore. / would feel S
bad mornings when I got up, to think
l had to go to work and stand the pain
for ten hours, and / often felt like CIV
ing up my position. Before l started
to work mornings ! would have to
wrap every finger up separately, so

wear gloves over the rags to keep
the grease from getting on my work.
At night I would have to wear gloves
in bed. In fact, 1 had to wear gloves
all the time. But thanks to Cuticura,
the greatest of all great skin cures.
After doctoring for three years, and
spending much money, a SOC. box of
Cuticura Ointment ended all my suffer-
ings. It's been two years since l used
any and I don't know what sore hands
are now, and never lost a days work
while using Cuticura Ointment"

The Chicago, Milwaukee & ana st.
Paul Railway Co. is doing some
effective advertising at present,
or rather, is a continuation of what
has been doing in the past four or
five years. The company has just
sent out an elegantly illustrated
booklet on South Dakota that is the
cleverest bit Of advertising the state
has. ever had, in fact the Milwaukee
road is taking the place Of an immi-
grafton bureau and is doing just
what an institution Of that chaIcter
would do for the state. This book
let is being distributed over the
eastern section Of the country and
within its pages are given the best
of reasons why people looking for a
western home should investigate
South Dakota. Statistics are given,
farm scenes are shown and features
are used to bring out the strong
points Of the state. Such a book
showing the varied resources Of the
state, the agricultural, the grazing,
the orchard, the fruit, together with
the illustrations of many of our
great educational institutions en-
phasize the character of the people
and the country. The advertising
department Of the Milwaukee road is
capably managed, as this book thor
oughl7 shows, by Mr.. q. 5. Young,
who is exceptionally we'll equipped
to handle this end Of the business

received an offer from the Pierre

accepting the proposition, as he
never was given to fighting very Wig
orously for a lost cause. From the
evidence that has been going forth
through Pierre's newspapers they
certainly need somebody to do a lit

hundred carloads of household and

In a special from Fort Pierre I'M
der date OF May s., in the Sioux City

ment as to the shipment Of cattle to
the reservation:
Cattle shipments from the south
to this range are considerably later
this year than in previous years on
account Of the lateness of Spring.
James Philip will unload several
train loads Of southern stockers
about May 10 at the Pierre stock
yards, which will be the first large
shipment into this point for the
year.
The above would Indicate that
considerable faith was retained in the
reservation country being good for
range purposes. This comes from
the very door Of Pierre and shows
co~nolusively that Pier re is simply
using the reservation for capital pur-
poses.
