"Our baby had that dreadful COM
plant, infantile Eczema. which affiict-

ing at the top Of his head. and at last
covering his whole body. His suffer
ings were untold and constant misery.
in fact, there was nothing we would
not have done to have given him re-
lief. We finally procured full set Of
the Cuticura Remedies. and In about
three or four days he began to show a
brighter spirit and really laughed. for
the f1rst time in year. In about
ninety days he was fully recovered.
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

In town near Atchison this hap
pened: A young man Of good posi-

tasteful to the young woman but she
had nothing else offering. and finally
accepted him. There was no love in
the match, indeed, there was actual
distaste and aversion on one side.
There is good deal of discussion
as to the woman's action. Some peo-
pie say she sold herself. But others
are more charitable and say she did

W. W. HUGHES SHORT
ABOUT $4,000
GAME AS A GREAT SENSATION TO CIT.
IZENS OF UNION.
Mr.. Hughes For Many Years Trusted
Employee OF Farr & Thompson and
Secretary and Treasurer OF Union
Building. And Loan Association.

1t came to light last week that
Mr.. w. w. Hughes, Secretary and
Treasurer of the Union Building
and Loan Association was short
in his accounts. To what extent,
ut is hard to estimate but it is ru-
mored about $50, 900. This caused
great commotion and excitement
among the citizens of Union, and
an investisetioI--was started at
once. An expert accountant was
sent for at once and is now at
work on the books.
Mr.. Hughes was for years re-
garded as strictly honest in all
his dealings and held the esteem
of his fellow citizens. 1t is un-
lerstood that speculation in cot
:on was the cause of his defalca-
tions; the same snare that catch
es so many others. Mr.. Hughes
is in New York.
The u. B. & l.. A. is a perpet-
lal institution; and has been sue
:essfully run for twenty years,
series 1, 2 and 3 having already
oeen wound up. Series Nos. 4,
), 6, 7 and 8 are still in exist
ence. 1t is thought by some that
5his shortage is scattered through
all the series; if this is true the
loss will not be heavy in any one
series; therefore, the losses to in
dividuals will be light.
The accountant will makes
statement as soon as possible
concerning the condition Of each
series, and each and every stock
holder will be invited to attenc
the meeting at which this state
ment will be made. If the stool
holders will but exercise patience
: hihiseE hihisseE EsHutppdsed.' i|I 5
When the stockholders meet il
IS suggested that they continue
each series and let it work itself
out. In the course of about two
years the loss will be recovered
from and without much hurt tc
any one.
For the further information OF
the stockholders it may be stated
that Mr.. Hughes was under bond
for years up to January of this
year. 1t is hoped that part OF
the loss may be recovered through
this bond.

in addition to this, Mr.. Dickert

every one, and Capt. Dickert
can rest assured that he has won

equal to all emergencies, and has
made all right. Many of the old
soldiers arrived last night, but
the large majority came in today.
1t was an interesting sight to see
them arrive. On every train
were crowds and they poured up
the stairways of the Union sta
ton in almost continuous stream.
Men in every condition came,
some with one arm, some with
one leg, others with only one eye,
some with faces all shot into

touched by the scenes that took
place. For instance, one crippled
old fellow stepped off the train
into the arms-did we say arms,
no, not arms, but into the arm of
an old comrade. Neither spoke
for a moment, but they looked
steadily into each others eyes.
Thank God, William, that I've
lived to see you again. 1t has
been many a long year since we
clasped hands, and I was afraid
we'd never see each other again.

to see you again, my friend, is

through at Sharpsburg was
enough to make us friends
throughout eternity" And tears
all but welled over in the eyes of
these two strong, old men.
The meeting of friend with

there was something else besides
pathos in it, there was humor,
