PARLoR CAR RATES.
As Much May Be Charged for Part as
for Full Journey.

An opinion rendered by the interstate
commerce commission in the case Of E. D..
Hewins of Boston against the New York,
New Haven and Hartford Railroad Com
pany sustains the contention of the COM
pany that it is not unjust discrimination to
charge a passenger as high rate for a
parlor car seat for a short distance as Is
charged for longer trip.
The specific complaint was that on the
through trains of the company between
New York and Boston the rate for a seat
in a parlor car was 81. while for interme-
date distances the rate was so and 20
cents according to distance. On three OF
the trains of the company. the complainant
alleges, the fare for intermediate distances
was 81, and this was charged to be Illegal
discrimination.

EARLY DAY HUNTERS
Hassayampa Says There Were Great
 Boosters in Those Days.

Tn Camp. Arizona Wilderness. Octo- ber 190t-(Special Correspondence of The RepubliCan)-As the evening is nice and pleasant, made more so by the festive and musical coyote and a very good ocauua torchlight. I will relate an incident that occurred about twenty years ago to a party of a half dozen prominent professional men of the old Angel City of California.
 It was about the time a new pattern of breech-loading rifle was coming into the market The gentlemen, according to their stories. were all wonderful spoltsmen, and their prowess in the chase was most amazing. Each one was anxious to get hold of one of the new rifles. and in due time did so quietly secreting it and proceeding to rib up a hunt for big game only. They employed my old friend the Chime heuva scout, to take them to a couu- try where the grizzly was supposed to abound. He led them to a certain tule swamp where hear could always be found. They started with team. and on the road discovered for the first time that each had a gun of the new est pattern. After that there was more thinking and less bragging.
 They canned about a mile from the luie swamp which was nearly round. with a little pond in the center. There was no surrounding high land. excep- ridge, that on oEe side extended down to the shore of the pond. the ridge being covered with pine trees. The guide directed the sports to se- crete themselves on this ridge. as the bear would be startled in such way as to run in that direction. They did so, some CrOuching behind the trees and others hiding in their branches
 One noble hunter perched himself near the edge of the wood. on q branch com handing clear view in front The guide circled to the opposite siGe of the swamp and discharged his weapon into the jules, when. much to his surpri=e a sure enough little black bear ran out Of the swamp and up the ridge. direct ly under the tree in which the first nimrod was hiding. He was too ner- voUs to shoot. of course. and just as the bear reached him his limb broke and he fell on the animals back The bear gave q sqUeaL and. almost fright ened to death, hastened his pace. He soon got beyond range. the other hunt CTS being too busy laughing to think of shooting. The silence of the guide was made an object. by all concerned. but thereafter there was no more big game talk HASSAYA8IPA.

 of Child.
CURED BY CUTICURA
Had Given up All Hope of Ever

My little girl has been suffering for two years or more from eczema, and during that time I could not get nights sleep, as her ailment was very severe.
 "I had tried so many remedies and spent much money, deriving no beue- ft, had absolutely given up all hope of making any cure. But ss Q last re- sort was persuaded to try set of the Cuticura remedies, and to my great delight Q marked change was mani- tested from the first application. gave the child a bath with Cuticura Soap, using a soft piece of muslin cloth. This I did twice a day, each time fol- lowing with the Cuticura Ointment, and at the same time gave the Resol- vent, according to directions. One box of the Ointment and two bottles Of the ResoIvent, together with the Soap, effected a permanent cure. l submit this for publication if you desire, hop ing it will add to your success and assist so many thousands of sufferers In cur ing themselves" Mus. l. B. JONES, ADDISGTON, IND. T.
 The first step in the treatment of the chronic forms is to remove the scales and crusts and soften the skin, by warm baths with Cutlcura Soap. The scalp, ears, elbows, hands, ankles and feet will require frequently 8 thorough soaking in order to penetrate the thick ened skin and crusts with which these parts are often covered. Dry care fully, and apply Cuticura Ointment, lightly at first, and where advisable spread it on pieces of soft cloth and bind in place. Take the ResolVent, pills, or liquid, in medium doses. Do not use cold water in bathing, and avoid cold, raw winds.
