tons on the skin, not only on the face,
but other portions of the body 1t is
akin to the old style itch. In cities
across the Atlantic the disease is so prev

on the circulars are: Don't kiss any

The Farce of Civil Service Reform.
Civil Service Commissioner Cooley
has written a letter indorsing Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the Republican
party as the most ardent civil service
reformers that the United States has
ever been blessed with. He adds that
nothing of importance has been done
by the President except with the con-
currence of the Civil Service Commits
sion," and if there has been any Yio-
lation of the rules the Commissioners
should be impeached. 1t was hardly
to be expected that the Commission
ers would smite the hand that feeds
them, but when the appropriation for
the Civil Service is up at the next
session of Congress it is pretty certain
that old man Grosvenor and other Re-
publican leaders will do little bark
ing against the Commission, and des-
ignate crimes that have been commit
ted in the cause of civil service that
should demand impeachment and con-
viction. The civil service rules every
one approves of, but no one wants to
live up to them.

Good Speeches.
Hon. Stuart W, Walker, Demo-
cratic candidate for Congress IN this
district, made an excellent speech in
Shepberdstovn last Thursday after
noon to large audience. He dis
cussed general political issues, but
gave most OF his attention to the new
tax laws OF West Virginia, which he
tore into rawlings. Mr. Walker has
been making a strenuous campaign,
and thoroughly covered the counties
of this district, delivering in all about
eighty set speeches.
One Of the largest crowds OF the
present campaign assembled in the
town hall last night to hear Col. Buch-
anan Schiey, the eloquent and versa
tile Democratic leader from Hsgers-
town, maqy ladies being in the audi
ence. Col. Scbley entertained and
edited the people in his usual happy
style as he discussed public matters,
and quoted from numerous RePubli-
can authorities to show that Presi-
dent Roosevelts policies are not in
accord with the principles Of his party
or dictated by wisdom. Col. SchleY
was cordially received and heartily
applauded, and his visit did good for
the Democratic Cause.
