cHlLD's AWFUL SKIN HuMoR
" Broke Parents Heart-speed-
lily Cured by Cuticura.

Il wish to inform you that the
Cuticura Remedies have put a stop to-
twelve years of misery I passed with
my son. As an infant I noticed on his
body red spot, and treated same
with different remedies for about five
years, but when the spot began to
get larger I put him under the care of
doctors. Under their treatment the
disease spread to four different parts
or his body. The longer the doctors
treated him the worse it grew. Dur
ing the day it would get rough and
form like scales. At night it would
be cracked, inf1amed and badly swol-
len. with terrible burning and itching.
When think of his suffering it near
ly breaks my heart. His screams
could be heard down stairs. The suf-
fer1ng of my son made me full OF
misery. I had no ambition to work.
to eat, nor could I sleep. One doctor
told me that my sons eczema was
tncurable, and gave 1t up for a bad
job One evening I saw an article in
the paper about the wonderful Cuti-
cura and decided to give it a trial.
l tell you that Cuticura Ointment is
worth its weight in gold; and when I
had used the first box of Ointment
there was great improvement, and
by the time I had used the second set
OF Cut1cura Soap, Ointment and Resell
vent, my child was cured He is now
twelve years old, and his skin is as
fine and smooth as silk Michael.

Three veterans, hale and hearty de-
spite their thin hair and their white
boards, were lunching together DO
you see this?" said the first, and he
held his watch charm-a ball of dull
metal set in a square of gold. DO you
know what that is? This is the bullet
they took from my left arm at Bull
Run" The second veteran displayed
his charm-a metal ball set in a gold
cross. This" said he, lis the bullet
they took out of my leg at Gettysburg"
He sighed. The bullet they took out, .
he said, but not the limp" The third
veterans charm was a bullet set in a
ring OF brilliants- Out of my head, /"

Women ana Business.

Women ana Business.
Thousands of girls are sent out into
the world with what is called finished
ieducations, who cannot even give
proper recipe for money, to say moth
ing of drawing a promissory note,
draft or a bill, or understanding the
significance and Importance of bust
mess contracts. Such a woman, writes
% s. Marden, in Success Magazine,
presented a check for payment re- the
paying teller of her bank He passed
lit back to her with the request that
she be kind enough to indorse it The
lady wrote on the back of the check,
Il have done bushes with this bank
for many years, and 1 believe 1t to be
all right Mrs. James B. Brown" An
other society woman in New York
presented a check for payment at the
bank, and the teller told her that it
was not signed. '-Oh, do they have to
be s:gned?" she responded. What an
awful lot of red tape there Is about
the banking business" 1 know of
lady whose husband made a deposit
for her in a bank and gave her
check book so that she could pay her
bills without annoying him. One day
she received a notice from the bank
that her account was overdrawn. She
went to the bank and told the teller
that there must be a mistake about 1t,
because she still had a lot of checks
left in her book. She knew so little
about business that she thought that
she could keep drawing any amount
oh oil hi
sounds ridiculous and almost incredi-
bic, yet the very girl who laughs at it
may make even more absurd blunders.
Many an accomplished woman, when
given a pen and asked to sign an i'm
portant document drawn up by an at
torney or a long-headed business man,
will sign it without reading it or even
asking to be informed of its contents,
only to learn afterwards by disastrous
results that she has signed away her
property and turned herself out of
home. Only a short time ago 1 read
of lady who had won suit involving
about $4,000. New evidence, however,
was brought forward, which caused the
court Immediately to reverse its decis
ion 1t was proved that the lady had
sworn falsely. She was perfectly limo
cent of any such intention, but she had
sworn that she had never signed her
name to a certain document. The doc
ument was produced, and, to her utter
asoonishment, she saw her signature
affixed to it. She acknowledged at
once that the signature was hers, al
though she had just sworn that she
had never signed the paper in ques-
ton. 1t appeared that, during her hus-
bands lifetime, whenever papers were
signed, he told her where to write her
name, and she did as she was told,
without having the slightest idea OF
me contents of the papers.

Manson Entitled to Credit.

George G. Grassie, a republican
candidate for the legislature in one OF
the Milwaukee assembly districts, has
the following to sayof Ii. I'll. Manson,
chairman of the democratic state
central committee IS
sPoke as much fun as you like at the
democrats, they had good convention
which will inspire the party work like
sixty this fall. It's good thing to get
together and talk it over once in a
while and the republicans who will
have to satisfy themselves with listen
ing to the candidates who come through
the country on their campaign tours,
may find themselves at disadvantage.
Chairman Manson is entitled to whole
lot of credit in pulling off the conven-
ton, and ought to be repaid some way
some time. He is good fellow and a
hard worker, and | am beginning to be.
lieve quite a capable politician. He is
one of the kind who does things with
out letting people know he is doing
them, or, better still, making people
believe that they are doing them them
selves If Manson were inclined 70 be
selfish or self-seeking, he would bear
watching, but apparently he is inter-
ested only in the success of the party.
If by a possible trick of fortune it
should happen that the democrats did
carry the state next fall, Mr.. Manson
would be in most enviable position

him, after an hours interview in the
White house, as combination of st.
Vitus and St. George" He is man of
loud promise and little performance.
OF nineteen important measures urged
upon congress in his annual message,
five have been enacted into law, though
generally greatly altered. His admin
istration will become famous in our
annals for reckless extravaganza and
wanton waste. Its annual expendi-
lures in times of profound peace ex-
coed those of the great civil war. 1t
has wantonly plundered neighDoring
republic and otherwise justly earned
the title of international meddler. 1t
recklessly disregards constitution and
laws, or whatever stands in the way OF
its lordly will or present impulse.
When one recalls its appeal to pref
udice and passion, and remembers the
intimidation and wholesale bribery of
voters and the consequent debauchery
of the electorate; when one recounts
the crimes against liberty and free
government done in the name of liber-
| ty; when one recalls the great leaders
of the party, Matt Quay, Tom Platt,
| Chauncey NJ Depew, Mark Hanna, and
many others of like ilk, to whom the
rank and file have had to bow in mute
homage; when one sees its dominance
by and subserviency to the great none
tary interests, he can not, if he loves
his country, be proud of the record OF
the republican party in the last thirty
| five years. Listen to the words of the
/ greatest republican president, Abraham
| Lincoln:
/ In 1865 President Abraham Lincoln
uttered the following prophecy in re-
Spouse to delegation of Missouri and
| Kansas radical republicans who asked
to have Gen. Schofield removed from
| Tile COHlldHu Vi luc uopdl tlnCnp VI
Missouri and the appointment of Gen
B. F. Butler in his place:
''It has been trying hour for the
republic, but see in the future a crisis
arising which unnerves me and causes
me to tremble for the safety of my
country. AS result of the war, cor
porations have been enthroned, and an
era of corruption in high places viii
follow, and then the money power Of
the country will prolong its reign by
working upon the prejudices of the
people, until all wealth is aggregated
in few hands and the republic is des
troyed. / feel at this time more ankle
ty for the safety of my country thar
ever before, even in the midst of the
war. God grant that my fears may
prove eroundless."
The prophecy of Abraham Lincoln
has been fulfilled. Republicanism anC
plutocracy are in full accord and the
question now is whether their contro
shall be perpetuated.

Conway for Congress.

The names of several prominent
democrats, have been quietly associated
for some time past with the Congress
sional nomination in this district. The
old notion that the people, resident
within the geographical limits of the
Tenth district, are chronic in their al
legiance to some political party, right
or wrong, is fallacy. If ever there
was time when party yokes and party
collars would be discarded and the
easy, restful and comforting attire OF
independence donned by the voter,
that time is right now Something
more than the party brand will be
needed to gain the support, respect and
confidence of the people. The revela-
tons of the past year in governmental
affairs; the investigations in the depart
ments at Washington; the insurance
scandals, which are specifically politi
cal in their character, being part of
the plan to perpetuate the power and
administration of the republican party,
these and other sins of omission and
commission, have shaken the conf
dence of the people in republican pro-
LESSONS, pledges, and promises.
To the unprejudiced observer, to the
intelligent voter, there is little in the
recent history of the republican party
to commend it; in fact, its open and
avowed collision with corporate inter-
ests, its unsavory record on all legisla
ton, proposed to curb corporate
aggression and domination, is such as
to deter patriotic men from further
utilization with it.
1t is not the individual republican
who is wrong in his political conclu-
sions; he acts, having for his incentive
the belief that the leaders of that party
are patriotic and unselhsh, but the
domination of the trusts and corporate
interests, which absolutely direct and
control his party, the iniquities perpe-
trated by the DingIey tariff, which is
the breeder OF trusts, have become so
apparent that they have opened his
eyes and his patriotism is again I'M
fettered, he will therefore join in this
great awakening and win play an i'm
portant part in rebuking that party and
in discrediting its leaders.
1t is patriotic duty, therefore, for
democrats to be careful in the selection
of candidates at this time, and especial
ly careful as to congressional candi
dates. The PrLoT is guided solely by
its desire to serve all the people in this
matter, as the democratic party is
looked to, to right existing wrongs and
in the matter of selecting congress
sionaI candidate, in the Tenth distric {
much thought and consideration has
been given to the subject. A careful
survey has been made, the qualifiea
tons of every available candidate have
been considered and the conclusion
reached is that ID. ID. Conway, of Grand
Rapids, Wood county, would be, taking
everything into consideration, the
strongest and most available selection.
He is product of the Wisconsin uni
versity; young, vigorous and capable,
popular at home and generally known
throughout the district, he possesses all
the elements of leader and is well in
formed on the issues which will enter
into the campaign; honest, thoroughly
reliable and in every way equipped to
make a worthy. able and successful
congressman. Nominate him.
