Puzzled by TWO Reports.
twenty-five thousand dollars is the
amount appropriated by the county
board of supervisors for running the
Racin county insane asylum the COM
ing year on recommendation of the
asylum committee. The report Of the
committee shows that there is a wide
difference existing between the trus-
tees of the asylum and the county
treasurer in their bookkeeping. Ac-

there is deficiency in the asylum

AS last resort 1 was persuaded to try Cuticura, and to my great delight marked change was manifested from the first application. I gave the child bath with Cuticura Soap, using soft piece of muslin cloth. This I did twice a day, each time following with Cuticura Ointment, and at the same time gave the Resolv- ent, according to directions. One box of Ointment and two bottles of the Resolvent, together with the Soap, effected a permanent cure. 1 submit this for publication, hoping it will assist other sufferers in curing them selves"

 Rita said the woman was his wife, and that he did not strike her. He said he did pull paper out of a typewriter she was using and told her to move away from the window as he did not care for her to be the target of remarks from men. The judge was inclined to believe Howard and his friends and as Rita re- fused to summons his wife he was fined $10
