Scheme Worked Out Badly.

Congressman Sulzer represents a densely populated district on the East side of New York city. It occurred to him some months ago that though there are no gardens in his district some of his constituents might grow plants in boxes placed on window sills or fire escapes, so he sent an as- sortment of seed to the inmate of a model tenement house owned by one of his friends. The latter met him few days ago and said: See here, Sulzer. want you to cut out that seed business. It's the limit" Why, what's the matter? asked the aston ished Sulzer, and he explained why he had sent the seeds. "Oh. you meant we'll. all right" returned the friend scornfully. but when 1 visited the place the other day found that about ten families were raising cabbage, GU. cumbers and tomatoes in the bath tubs"

TERRIBLE ITCHING SCALP,
Eczema Broke Out Also on Hands and limbs-An Old Soldier Declares:
 "Cuticura Is a Blessinq."

At all times and to all people I am willing to testify to the merits of Cuticura. It saved me from worse than the tortures of hades, about the year 1900, with itching on my scalp and temples, and afterwards it com menced to break out on my hands. Then it broke out on my limbs. I then went to surgeon whose treat ment did me no good, but rather az gravated the disease. I then told him l would go and see a physician in Erie. The reply was that I could go anywhere, but case of eczema like mine could not be cured; that I was too old (S0). l went to an eminent doctor in the city of Erie and treated with him for six months, with like results. I had read of the Cuticura Remedies, and so I sent for the Cuti. cura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, and continued taking the Resoivent until had taken six bottles, stopping 1t to take the Pills. I was now get. ting better. I took two baths a day and at night left the lathcr of the Soap dry on. I used the Ointment with great effect after washing ir warm water, to stop the itching at once. l am now cured. The Cuticura treatment is blessing. and should be used by every one who has itching of the skin. can't say any more and thank God that He has given the world such curative. Wm. H. Gray, 3303 Mount Vernon St.. Philadelphia, Pa. August 2. 1905."

1t Will Stay There.

Tn my family medicine chest no remedy is permitted to remain unless it proves beyond doubt the best to be obtained for it's particular purpose. For treating all manner of skin troubles, such as Eczema, Tetter, Ringworm, etc, Hunts Cure has held it's place for many years. I have fail- ed to find surer remedy. It cures itching instantly.

to bite at sight of another dog or cat
may lie looked on as very suspicious, es-
pecially if rabies exist in the country.
Soon the characteristic howl is emit

there is one loud howl followed by two

An avalanche of mud and slime over

and cattle were buried.
At least 30 persons have been buried
alive. The streets are flooded six feet
deep with yellow mud. Acres of crops
have been destroyed and hundreds of head
of cattle.

area of about five kilomererS in the val
