MASS OF. SORES
Awful Suffering Of Little Boy
from an Itching Humour
CURED BY CUTICURA
Not One Square Inch of Skin on
His Whole Body Unaffected

"My little son, boy of five, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At the
time I was induced to try Cuticura
he was SO bad that I had to cut his
hair off and put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on him on bandages, as it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass of sores.
The bandages used to stick to his skin
and in removing them it used to take
the skin off with them, and the screams
from the poor child were heart-break.
ing. began to think that he would
never get well, but after the second
application of Cuticura Ointment +
began to see signs of Improvement,
and with the third and fourth appli.
cations the sores commenced to dry
up. His skin peeled off twenty times,
but it finally yielded to the treatment.
Now I can say that he is entirely
cured, and stronger and healthier
boy you never saw than he is today

IMPRESSIONS OF TOM JOHNSON
Jimmy Foley Analyses the Characteristics Of
CeVeIand'S Remarkable Mayor

Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 9.-This is
the third pen have tried and none of
them writes well. You will appreciate
my loyalty to Tribune readers when
try to prepare a letter with such a
literary weapon. If this manuscript
IS bad, charity should lead you to lay
it to the pen, and not to the fact that
the annual banquet took place at the
Hollenden last night and lasted until
2:30 this morning.
Tom Johnson, mayor of Cleveland,
was there. Frank Daniels, the come
dian, who is playing Sergeant Brue'
at the opera house here, was "among
those present." and made one of his
characteristic speeches. There were
others, more or less noted, who
responded to addresses. Johnson was
the most interesting to me, because
he is in a way, a national figure. He
is an ingenious chap, wealthy, and a
master of politics. When he bought
an old house recently and wanted 20
build an addition that should harmon
lie in color with the old stone building,
he set his wits to work to find stain
for the new part. Reflection told him
that years of SCOT and rain had dis
colored the old part, and so ne made
paint of SCOT and rainwater and
painted the addition. Needless to say,
he has house that presents uniform
color-that of an old stone mansion
that has stood years of SCOT and
weather. This is merely to show that
the man is ingenious and when he
wants to accomplish something, does
not rest till he has done so.
Tom is of below the middle height,
stout and pleasant looking. His face
is round and jolly. His hair curls in
little rings about his forehead and the
back of his neck. He is careless Of
his personal appearance, and looks
like a westerner. He is remarkably
clever at repartee and a bad man to
best in public speech or debate. He
is a thorough politician and when he
promises a thing, it is done. He re.
sembles Bryan in appearance and man.
ner, but is not nearly so commanding
a figure, physically. He has an en-
gaging way with him, and hobnobs
with equal grace with a millionaire or
ditch digger. In personal popularity
he Is like our own Alexander McKen.

his enemies acknowledge his fine
qualities. He Is worth several mil
lions, but he Is the kind of fellow
you can't spoil. -~ IS
He is mayor of Cleveland and I
should play him as strong favorite
for reelection. He plays + to the
galleries, but they all do that. But he
has given Cleveland a good admins
tration. He has made good parks and
streets and is, think, q good man for
such an Office. He has some cratic
notions, but they are all in the way of
benefitting the masses. If he is sim
cere in his objects (and I think he isl,
we can forgive some of his extreme
ideas.
Personally, we have met some old
Dakotans who are always good to see.
One night we took dinner with Mrs.
Booth, sister of Ed Patterson, who

49,

that great conservator of the public
morals of the state-outside of the I'M
mediate vicinity of Grand Forks-has
a severe chill following Bismarck
Tribune editorial expressing it's con-
fidence in the integrity of the capitol
commissioners. Where was this
model of Righteousness did the
Grand Forks Herald have to say when
thousands, up to six figures, were be-
ing expended on state institution adj
joining that city without a shadow Of
law or authority? Bismarck is not
very much more interested in the
state capitol than any other communi-
ty in the state but it does want to
see the state receive the most for the
money in the way of capitol build
ing that wise expenditure of the
means available will produce. The
Herald does not believe the integrity
of the commission cuts much figure.
The reputation of the members of the
Soard counts for nothing. The
nypocracy of the Herald has become
so pronounced and so firmly estab-
ished that judging all things by the
profundity of his own experience the
Herald man unhesitatingly classes
everything except the Herald-as
corrupt and corruptable. The Tribune
is not endorsing fully, or to any degree
the form of the advertisement inviting
proposals for capitol building, but it
does believe that the capitol commits
sioners are honest, well meaning and
reasonable men and that any reason
able criticism of their acts or proposed
acts will receive serious and proper
consideration. The carpenters and
joiners of Fargo-who are "fraid cats"
when it comes to bidding on very
particular work for Uncle Sam-and a
few disgruntled politicians who want
to GUST the present bosses to make
way for a new set of bosses are not
the most honest and best qualified
critics in the world, and it is not TO-:
them to impugn bad motives to lead
ing citizens of this state who have
been charged with the responsibility
of fashioning into a state building the
funds that the federal government
mas given this state exclusively for
that purpose. AS the Tribune has
heretofore minated it is very likely
that when the capitol commission next
meets to consider the matter of build
ing it will be found that there is
much ado about nothing" However
1t is really too bad that the commits
sioners did not consult the wise and
righteous. man of the Herald before
taking any action whatever.
