Danger in Drinking Ice Water,

1t is as unscientific to cool off the
human body by flooding ones inter-
nails with ice cold water as it is to
cool off a stove by dashing cold
water on 1t. Water fresh from the
well or faucet is a good deal better
for a person than water from the ice
pitcher. In Europe they never put
ice into water but set a vessel con,
tanning water in the refrigerator,
when it soon becomes as cold as
should be taken into the stomach.
The ice water habit has done the
American people a lot of harm. The
slavery of some people to ice water
would be amusing if it wasn't amaz-
ing.-The Epitomist.

new JERSEY STATE NEWS
= Melted TooIs in His Hands,

Melted Tools in His Hands.
The queerest prank ever played by
lightning in Paterson happened at the
building being erected at 62S River
street. George w. Rutan, a plumber,
had finished work in one room and
gathered up his tools preparatory to
going into another part of the build
ing. In one hand he held a large and
a small saw and brace a1d bit. In
the other he had a heavy lead plumb
ing bob and two calking tools. The
calking tools were rods of iron eight
and twelve inches long. There was
a flash and Rutan was lifted off hil
feet and flung sprawling OF the floor.
Fire seemed to be spouting from his
hands. When he recovered he had
only the handle of the big saw in his
hand. There was a small hole in the
smaller saw. The calking tools had
disappeared entirely. In the brace
and bit and the plumbing bob there
were holes showing where the light
ming had pierced them. A plumbers
helper who was with Rutan says he
saw a ball of fire playing about his
head. The ball left the room with
out damaging anything in it except
Rutan's tools. Rutan himself was
only dazed. The lightning entered
the building under. the shingles of a
metal cupola on the roof.

Black Splotches All Over Face-Affeeted
Parts Now Clear as E~ver-Cured by
the C~uticura Remedies.

: about four years ago l was afflicted
with black splotches all over my face and
a few covering my body, which produced
q severe itching irritation, and which
caused me a great deal of annoyance and
suffering, to such an extent that l was
forced to call in two of the leading ply
sicians of my town. After q thorough ex-
animation of the dreaded complaint they
announced it to be skin eczema in its
worst form. They treated me for the
same for the length of one year, but the
treatment did me no good. Finally my
husband purchased a set of the Cuticura
Remedies, aud after using the contents of
the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent in
connection with the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. l continued the use of the Cuti-
cura Remedies for six months, and after
that every splotch was entirely gone and
the affected parts were left as clear as
ever. The Cuticura Remedies not only
cured me of that dreadful disease eczema,
but other complicated troubles as well.

FIFTY FORGERS CAUGHT.
Band Included Sons of Prominent
Erenchmen-ATadc $40 600.


Paris.-The police discovered a
band of expert coiners having inter
national connections, and fifty mem
bers of it were arrested, including
several Latin Quarter students whose
parents hold high official positions.
The students are implicated on ac-
count of having passed the money,
most of which was in ten and twenty
franc pieces.
The process used by the counter
feiters was a perfect one, the coins
being electroplated with gold dust.
1t is estimated that $1,000 francs of
this money has been passed in the
last six months.
The band operated also in England
and Germany and was making prepa-
rations to open business in Chicago
