Fergus Falls, Mimi, Aug. 23.--The city coun-
Gil of this city has thrown down the gauntlet

underground would interfere with good service
The matter referred to the street committee
and after some elaboration 1t was determined
to charge the company rental Of SO year
for the of the streets In case 1t declined to
put its wires underground.
Assistant Manager Prendergast appeared at
the meeting Tuesday night and said positively
that the company would not put the wires un
foreground, and that 1t positively refused to pay
for tie use of the streets for the reason that II
would establish precedent that might be fol
lowed by other cities. He maintained that the
company had right to run Its wires thru the
city without charge and intimated that it woult
exercise It's right The council took the GROUND
that che city had to pay for it's messages an(
that there reason for giving the company

Caton's Business College, 253 20 Az S.
When a man has spent twenty years
educating men and women for business
life and for positions in business
houses; when he has educated more
than 5000 young and middle-aged men
and women; when he has placed more
than 1000 of his students in business
houses in this. city alone; when he has
established for his school the reputa-
ton that secures the best students, and
calls for it's graduates from all the
leading business houses, his opinions
are valuable. Professor Cation and his
school have received the highest in
dorsements from business, professional
and public men, and his graduates are
so well equipped for office work that
they are generally engaged ahead Of
their graduation. Since last January
more than 100 students have graduated,
and with very few exceptions these
Young people were placed in positions
within one week after their gradua-
ton, and more than one-half Of them
were engaged for office work before
their graduation. Tt pays to attend

Webster City, Iowa, Aug. 23.-The attention
Of the telephone world is being called to tae
wonderful progress which Iowa has made in
developing independents telephone lines and 70
the extraordinary number OF rural telephones
in operation over the state. The development
has taken place within the last ten years.
The state of Iowa has % per cent of the rural
telephone lines Of the United States. In the
1902 reports of the United States census bureau,
it Is shown that the state Of Iowa has TO
exchanges, IS Of which are Bell lines and 642
independent. More farmers use telephones In
Icwa than in any other state.
The figures submitted to the executive coun-
Gil for taxa ton purposes for the year ended
dependent telephones and 1880 Bell telephones.
The independents report 5,U46.4O miles Of cop
per wire, while the Bell company reports
6,113.9S ..-
According to the figures compiled recently by
George Il. Hewes manager of the Iowa telephone
clearing house, Iowa farmers are among the
largest telephone users in the state and II
was thru their demands for telephones that the
great service developed. The twenty four com
panies which patrons of the low clearing
house have total number of 173 exchanges anc
329 tollline stations. The population tribu
tary to their lines is 6S1 800. There are S. SOL
independent lines, 51,13S rural lines and p 3S(
Bell lines.
Many of the rural and independent lines are
doing considerable rebuilding this season, and b,
fall Iowa will be still further covered with tele
phone lines. The old lines are being put /,
much better condition than they have been ii

The demand of the farmers for telephones
has been of the greatest factors in the build

SKIN ECZEMA
IN WORST FORM
Black Sp|otches All Over Face -

Treatment by Physicians Did No

Alabama Lady's
CURE BY THE
CUTlCURA REMEDIES

"About four years ago was afflicted
with black splotch hes all over my face
and few covering my body, which
produced severe itching irritation, and
which caused me great deal of annoy
ance and suffering, osuch an extent that
Twas forced to call in two of the leading
physicians of my town. After thor
ough examination of the dreaded COM
plant they. announced it to be skin
eczema in it's worst form. They treated
me for the same for the length of one
year, but the treatment did me no good.
FINALLY I became Respondent and
decided to discontinue their services.
Shortly afterwards, my husband in read
ing copy Of a weekly New York
paper saw an advertisement of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. He purchased the en-
the outfit, and after using the contents
of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent
in connection with the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. I continued the use of the
Cuticura Remedies for six months, and
after that every splotch was entirely
gone and the affected parts were left as
clear as ever. I have not felt a symp-
tom of the eczema since, which was three
years ago.
"The Cuticura Remedies not only
cured me of that dreadful disease,
eczema, but other complicated troubles
as well; and I have been the. means Of
others being cured OF the same disease
by the Cuticura Remedies, and I don't
hesitate in saying that the Resolvent
is the best blood medicine that the world
has ever known" Lizzie E. Sledge,
