CHURCH PEW HIS BED.
Tramp Finds Rest for His Weary
Bones in House of Worship.

The janit0r OF one of Portsmouth s
largest churches was given big sur.
prise Sunday morning as he stepped
into the auditorium after opening the
big front doors to allow of the usual
airing out. He came face to face with
a strange and tough-looking man. At
first the janitor feared a touch of the
chills, but he finally brought himself
together and inquired of the man what
he had been doing.
The fellow said that he had been en-.
joying nights rest on the cushions
of pew away down front. Saturday
night he was attracted to the church
by the singing of the choir during re.
hearsal. He found the door open,
walked in and sat down.
The music had that soothing effect
and the wanderer fell asleep. He knew
nothing more until daylight, when he
awoke wondering where he was at. He
said that in all his life he had never
found a more comfortable bed.
The janitor looked about, saw that
nothing was disturbed and then al
lowed the stranger to go.-Portsmouth,

RUNNING SORES ON LIMBS.
Little Girls Obstinate Case of Eczema
Mother Says: "Cuticura Rene
dies Household Standby"

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by very prominent
physician, for an obstinate case OF
eczema, resorted to the Cuticura
Remedies, and was so well pleased
with the almost instantaneous relief
afforded that we discarded the physi
clans prescription and relied entirely
on the Cuticura Soap, Cut!cura Oint.
ment and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence OF
the trouble. We find that the Cuti-
cura Remedies are a valuable house.

home. He wanted to ask for details.
but he deemed it wise not to do So
Mrs. Flynn is exceptionally sarcastic
when she gets the idea that she is do
ing the thinking for the family, which
has a tendency to induce the patrol
man to solve problems in his own
original way. However, there was the
light of victory in his eyes when he
went on duty that night, and almost
the first thing he did was to interview
Casey.
"'Tis mesilf," said Casey, that's
been wondherin' why tn la-ads come
trapsin' in tn wan door an thin 70
pilin' out tn other. There's no money
in it f'r me, an they'll not get through
this night"
Matters being thus satisfactorily ar
ranged, Policeman Flynn bided his
time. Never before had he left the
dudes who congregated about the
stage entrance so entirely alone, for
he desired to gather them ali e. a.
one swoop. Tney were harmless fei-
lows of the class VINO hike to hover
about, making eyes at the chorus girls
and pretending to have a standing

with them that they do not possess;
but as Policeman Flynn had said,
they were nuisances-although of
kind numerous in every large city
and in this instance the stage entrance
was so arranged that it was difficult
to keep it clear of them.
Finally, when the assembled crowd
was large enough to suit him, the pa
trolman made his sally. Out of the
alley went the youths and in at the
front door of Caseys saloon, with the
officer in close pursuit. This time he
knew where to go when he emerged
on the street, and he found In Casey's
back room as panic-stricken crowd
as one often sees, for the alley door
was locked and exit that way was i'm
possible.
"Oho!" cried Policeman Flynn, tri-
umphantly, 81 ha-ave ye now f'r sure!
Shtand in r-row there an let's see

them were inclined to rebel, but they
thought better of it when Policeman
Flynn made a movement in their di-

wall. "'Tis a fine-lukkin' er-rowd ye

1t was a great picture that Police

counting the results of the raid
