WInIng % ~ 81 Contempt.


The following anecdote Is told
Of General Gilman Marston, a once
famous New Hampshire lawyer,
says the Boston Herald.
General Marston was attending
court at Dover, when a young at
torney made q motiOn that was de-
MED BY the court. The young
man demonstrated against what be
thought was the wrong ruling Of
the Judge. So vehementIy did be
demonstrate that be was fined 80
for contempt OF court. An older
attorney took the matter up and
be was ined q similar sum. Still.
another, who thought be stood a
little better with the Judge, en-
desvored to straighten the matter
out, but he, too, enriched the COT.
iers Of the state by paying a stem
spOt'' for contempt.
General MarstOn was then seen
to rise in his seat ana advance to
the clerks desk. Taking his long
pOcketbOOk from his pocket he
took out two $40 bills and laid
them on the desk.
"What is that fort" asked the
court.
~ want you to distinctly under
stand" said the general, ''that I
have just twice as much contempt
for this d-cOurt as any man here,
and ] am paying for it."

CURED BY CUTICURA
FOR FIVE DOLLARS

Mrs. George H. Tucker, Jr., sss
Greenfield Avenue, Milwaukee, Wis,
is q grateful mother. "When six
months old" she says, "my little girl
weighed a pound and q half less than
at birth. When one month old scab
formed on her face, spreading until Il
completely covered her from head to
foot, followed BY boils, having forty
on her head at one time, and more on
her body. Then her skin started to
dry up, and it became so bad she
could not shut her eyes to sleep. One
months treatment with Cuticura Soap
and Ointment made q complete cure,
and'now my child Is as large, strong,
and healthy as any child Of her age.
The Doctors and drug bills were over
one hundred dollars, and my baby
grew worse all the time. Then We
spent less than five dollars for Cuti-
cura and cured her"
