In these days when access TO the
bankruptcy courts is an easy way of
settling an estate which has suffered
by bad business methods. and when
the supposed demand and greed for
money and the possession OF wealth
snrpasses all other considerations. II
We can believe what some reformers
tell us, II is interesting and note
worthy to read of the performance
OF young man in Iowa who. after
working hard for 10 years. has paid
on debt OF 100000 left by his
father, who. became a bankrupt and
died as a result OF his business re-
versals. James G.. Whitney is the
name OF the man who has thus clear.
ed the memory aud name OF his faith
err. as well as established n name for
high purpose and loyalty. The es-
tate OF his father was ruined through
unfortunate investments There was
no faint OF corruption no misappro-
priation OF funds. nothing rejecting
on anything but the Judgment OF his
father. This. however. made no diff
Terence TO this loyal son. who. taking
upon his own shoulders the business
OF the private bank which his father
had managed and assuming all the
other obligations. which his father
had left in an estate which II was
! thought at the time would not yield
80 cents on the dollar, has carried
| this business TO such successful re-
suits that he has been able To pay
out this vast sum of money to the
creditors of his father and will, now
proceed to secure private fortune
OF his own. IL is high minded deed
and one which should be held up for
the admiration OF all who like to be-
lieve that the day of such deeds and
the loyalty of sons is not passing
: away.-Boston Herald.

Dreadful Complaint, InfantiIe &c.

MOTHER PRAISES
CUTlCURA REMEDIES

"Our baby had that dreadful COM
plant, Inlantile Eczema, which afflicted
him for several months, commencing at
the top OF his head, and at last covering
his whole body. His sufIerings were
untold and constant misery, in fact,
there was nothing we would not have
done TO have given him relief. The
family doctor seemed 10 DO wholly
incapable Of coping with the case, and
after various experiments OF his, which
resulted in no benefit to the child, we
sent 10 Macon, ILL.,. TO druggist and got
full set Of the Cuticura Remedies and
applied as per directions. and he began
TO improve Immediately, and in about
three or four days began to show
Brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in year. In about ninety
days he was fully recovered, with the
exception Of rough skin, which is
gradually disappearing, and eventually
will be replaced by healthy one.
"Praise for the Cuticura Remedies
has always been our greatest pleasure,
and there is nothing too good that we
could say in their favor, for they GER
tsinly saved our babys life, for he was
the most awful sight that ever beheld,
