"Three years ago this summer had very bad case of eczema in my hands. They were so bad 1 had to keep them bandaged for eight weeks. l had four different doctors. The first three made them worse. The last one helped them for little while, but the next summer they broke out worse than ever; and as had seen Cuticura adver- tised in the papers great deal, I thought 1 would try it. I took the complete treatment of Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills. Before I had used one box of Ointment my hands were all smooth again, and now l am doing all the work for four and my hands are all free from eczema, and I cannot say too much in praise for Cuticura. My hair was falling out fast and a fev applications of the Ointment Stay ped it. If there is any part of this letter that would be the means of others trying Cuticura, l am willing you should publish it; as I would like others to be cured as was; for no matter how long any one has suffered with eczema, Cuticura Remedies will cure it.

Johnson as the Village Judge" Miss Mabel F. Hurd as Monica, the gypsy fortune teller, are difficult characters in the play, which call for more than me- diocre talent, and Prof. Brown is cer- tainly entitled to much credit for the efficient manner in which he has train ed his choir, so that the production of the operetta is so charmingly rendered.

tanned one Of the finest establishments
in that town. His family still occupy
the house, living in comfortable cir

Twenty years ago Ryder was man
of wealth and influence, one of the big

Now he is homeless, his wife will
not permit him to enter the house and
his daughter, Alice B. Ryder, has
brought suit in equity to dispossess
him from his little tent and compel him
to remain away from the neighborhood
The success of an invention was re-

contractor and mechanical engineer, he
had amassed considerable sum Of
money, when he was unfortunate
enough to perfect an improved heater

large amount.
Thenceforth he devoted all his time
to experiments, with the hope OF
patenting something else Of value

Treaty Of Paris in 1855 Bound Russia

Sweden is anxious over the continued

the approach to the Gulf of Finland
and Bothnia gulf, but also the ap-
proaches to Stockholm.

Of Paris, after the Crimean war, Rus,
STA was compelled to abandon the for
tifcations at Bomarsund on one Of the
islands and to agree that no military
forces shall again be stationed on the
islands. This pact has been religiously
observed until last month when it was
learned that battalion Of Russian
troops had taken possession Of the old
works at Bomarsqnd; that 8. wireless
telegraph station had been established,
and communications opened with Asno
and Cronstadt. and that several naval
vessels were there. -
It is given out that the operations
are simply to prevent the smuggling
Of arms into Russia. This is plainly q
subterfuge, for the smugglers do not
live on the islands and the infantry
troops are not needed on the waters

Prince Of .Etchers.
In the more than 1000 works of art
which Rembrandt left, there are some
900 drawings and 26O etchings. He is
called the ''Prince of Etchers,' and
notwithstanding his fondness for fnery
he saw the picturesqueness Of beggars,
and like Murillo, some of his best work
is devoted to genre studies of this class.
His studies are grotesque, humorous,
often repulsive, as, for instance, the
world s most famous etchers have been
the Dutch and German artists, and OF
these Rembrandt stands first. In en-
craving, the lines are cut with the
tools upon the metal, but, in etching

Special to The Journal.
New York, July 14.-As a result Of
the onward march Of civilization, the
effete west is to to be supplied with
bison from the wild and ewoolly east.
This ,paradoxical situation has arisen
of an offer from the New York Zoology.
cal society to place herd of the Amer
lean buffalo in the Wichita forest and
game reserve in southwestern Okla
homa.
| AS an evidence of it's desire to aid
the government in taking steps to pre-
serve permanently the American bison
from final extinction, the geological So
gift, a herd Of between fifteen and
twenty bnffaloes. provided the govern
ment would fence in a suitable range on
the Wichita game reserve, wherein the
herd could be maintained without the
| expense of constant feeding. This of.
fer was favorably received.
| The New York Geological society
desires it to be distinctly understood
prompted solely by patriotic motives,
and not because, as has been erroneous
! ly alleged, the buffaloes in the zoologi-
| cal park are not doing well. AS mat
| ter of fact, no buffaloes in captivity
are in finer condition, or breeding moro
readily than those in Bronx park, which
is today the largest and finest herd on
public exhibition anywhere.
| It is conceded, however. by the 20.
illogical society and by all competent
authorities that the American bison
cannot be preserved from ultimate e1-
tinction- and carried thru several GEN.
turies by breeding in the close confne-
ment of geological gardens and parks.
This noble animal can be saved only
by establishing herds on very large
areas, so that the animals will be in a
semiwild condition and will thereby oh.
tain the exercise that is absolutely
necessary to their permanent welfare
