TERRIBLE ITCHING SCALP.
Eczema Broke Out Also on Hands and
limbs-An Old Soldier Declares:
"cuticura 10 Blessing"

AT all times and to all people
am willing to testify to the merits Of
Cuticura. It saved me from worse
than the tortures of hades, about the
year 1900. with itching on my scalp
and temples, and afterwards 1t COM
menced to break out on my hands.
Then it broke out on my limbs. I
then went to surgeon whose treat
ment did me no good, but rather az.
gravated the disease. I then told him
I would go and see a physician in
Erie. The reply was that I could go
anywhere, but case of eczema like
mine could not be cured; that l was
too old (S0). I went to an eminent
doctor in the city of Erie and treated
with him for six months, with like
results. I had read Of the Cuticura
Remedies, and so sent for the Cuti.

ting better. I took two baths a day
and at night I left the lather of the
Soap dry on. used the Ointment
with great effect after washing ir
warm water, to stop the itching at
once. I am now cured. The Cuticura
treatment is blessing, and should
be used by every one who has itching

lndia's Railroad Industry,

One Of the main schemes Of the
railway board is to have rolling stock
built up partly in India, which will
give manufacturing firms in this
country an opportunity for tenders for
the construction of wagon frames and
bodies. The experiment will also be
extended to state lines, tenders being
received up to 25 per cent. part In
India, which will give the total num-
Der of wagons sanctioned for con-
struction yearly, while axles, wheels,
ETC., will be obtained by each railway
administration on indent from home
and be supplied to contracting firms

toners. incidentally it indicates that
the United States is not alone in fac.
ing increased cost of living. The re.
port says: "Owing to the rapidly In.
creasing cost of living in Japan labor
costs more, and in consequence cul-
tivation Of the tea gardens is less
generous and extensive, than formerly,
and less care and skill are expended
in picking and curing the leaf. Hence
the average quality Of the teas now
offered for sale is below that of sea-
sons prior to the war, and for the
same reasons we are not likely in the
future to see any reversion to the
excellence of former years."-New

Caring for the Ice Pond.

When winter thaws or heavy rains
after freezing weather wash sand and
trash onto the ice in the pond it will
be spoiled unless attended to at once
Drain off extra water over the dam by
cutting holes IN the ice. Scrape off
the dirt with hoe and shovel or it
will make the ice porous. III late fall
or early winter the ice pond should be
drained, the weeds and trash on the
banks cut and the pond then refilled
with clear water. Fhis will prevent
the ice being filed with grass and
sticks which hasten its melting. Abso-
lutely pure ice keeps much longer than
that containing sticks and trash.

Brother Aorieulturlsts.

In the early forties, on q certain

interest and excitement. Some auda.

see II the town will appropriate $500
for new schoolhouse."
The sturdy yeomanry were out in
force to fight down this proposition.
The sympathetic moderator didn't
moderate" them worth q cent. The
so-called "toney'' advocates, conscious
from the start Of their numerical
weakness. were conciliatory and per-
suasive, in the hope Of thus winning
to their standard sufficient of the op-
position to carry the day. These hopes
were dashed, however, when a vet.
eran farmer. the Nestor Of the guild,
got the floor, and shouted In foghorn
tones:
What do you want Of skulehouses,

When the election was held yester-

of the election officers. numbered
each ballot as it was dropped in the
ballot box. 1t is claimed that this in
the Territory provide that no numbers
or designating marks of any kind
shall be placed upon any ballot. This
numbering it seems was done with
the consent of the other election Of

misunderstanding of the law. so it is
said
Charles Brown was seen this after
noon by a representative of the Rec
ord, and confirmed the report that
that it was possible that he and 9th
ers would go before the grand jury
and ask that certain persons in the
Fourth ward be indicted for illegal
voting.
Being asked when the contest
would be filed. Mr. Brown refused TO
state the time. but said that it would
be filed. He also refused to state who
the other persons were interested
with him in the matter.
The Record understands that the
persons who may be arrested will be
charged with voting in the ward
when they had not lived there the
required thirty days The law states
that a contest must be filed before
the district court, and that bond must
be given TO cover the costs The pen
atty for illegal voting, or other viola
tions of the election laws is a fine of
from 500 to $500 and from three to
six months in the county jail.
The returns of the election will be
