SAVED BABY LYONS LIFE.
Awful Sight from That Dreadful Com
plant, lnfantile Eczema-Mother
Praises Cuticura Remedies.

"Our baby had that dreadful COM
plant, infantile Eczema, which afflict-
ed him for several months, commenc-
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 a full set of
the Cuticura Remedies, and in about
three or four days he began to shSY a
brighter spirit and really laughed, tor
the first time in a 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
tainly saved our baby's life, for he
was the most awful sight that l ever

DRIVEN TO GET RELIGION.
Reason for Close-Fisted Mans Attend
ance at Church.

A New Hampshire man tells Of q
tight-fisted man of affairs in a town
of that state, who until recently had
never been observed to take an in
terest in church matters. Suddenly,
however, he became a regular attend
ant at Divine service, greatly to the
establishment of his fellow towns
men.
What do you think of the case Of
old Ketchum?" said n of the bust
ness men of the place to a friend. Is
it true that he has got religion?'
well, hardly replied the other,
with the air of one who knows. The
fact is, it's entirely a matter of busi-
ness with him. l am in a position 20
know that about a year ago he loaned
the pastor $50, which the latter was
unable to pay. So there ren4ained
nothing for Ketchum but to take it
out in pew rent."-The Sunday Maya,

NAPoLEON'S MANY ESCAPES
Reckless of Danger, the Great Soldier
Was Wounded Many
Times.

In reply to the question in what en-
gagements he considered himself to
have been in the greatest danger of
losing his life Napoleon once said, "In
the commencement of my campaigns"
Indeed, If further proof were demand
self at Toulon it is only necessary to
add that during the ten weeks of its
siege Napoleon, in addition to a bay
onet wound in his thigh, had three
horses shot under him, while at the
siege of Acre during the expedition to
Egypt he lost no fewer than four in
the same manner
During the last days Of his life,
when captivity, disappointment and
sickness had well nigh completed their
work, it is said that the agony of his
fatal disease drew from him on many
occasions the pitiful cry of, why did
The cannon balls spare me?"
During his long military career Ma
poleon fought 60 battles, while Caesar
fought but so. In the early part of his
career he was uttrely reckless of dan
ger while on the battlefield, and this
spirit of fearlessness contributed large
ly to the love and esteem In which he
was held by his armies. There was a
curious belief among the English in
Napoleon's time that he had never
been wounded, and indeed the report
was current that he carefully If not in
q cowardly name r~efrained from ex-
posing himself. Nothing could be more
contrary to the truth, for he was in
reality several times severely wound
ed, but as he wished to impress upon
his troops the belief that good fortune
never deserted him and that, like
Achilles, he was we'll nigh invulner-
able, he always made a secret of his
many dangers. He therefore ~enjoined
once for all upon the part of his i'm
mediate staff the most absolute silence
regarding all circumstances Of this ma
ture, for 1t is almost impossible to cal
culate the confusion and disorder
which would have resulted from the
slightest report or the smallest doubt
relative to his existence. Upon the sim
Gle. thread of this mans life depended
not only the fate and government of a
great empire, but the whole policy and
destiny Of Europe as well.

You're too far gone TO git any good

nevertheless insisted on paying full

Democratic Opportunity.

The Republican managers OF the
congressional elections are whistlins
to keep up the courage of themselves
and their followers, but like the boy
passing through the graveyard at
dusk, they are really scared TO
DEATH" They don't know what is
going to happen, for so many Repub'
lican voters are breaking away from
their political moorlngs that all the
information that comes to headquar'
ters Is replete with ~forebodlngs OF do
feat. The old Republican machine
workers are not enthusiastic In the
cause, for they do not see much ben
eft from success, except those who
are holding down federal offices and
they. OF course, are enthusiastically
putting In their time at politics, In
stead OF attending to business. The
late conference of the Republican
leaders at the White House was
gloomy, although 1t was given out
that victory was certain. But the
Republican brethren should cheer up,
the tariff protected trusts are putting
money into the close congressional
districts to save the standpat con
gresslonal candidates and matters
may not be as desperate as the new
amateur managers are scared into be-
lieving they are.
Democrats everywhere should take
advantage of the Republican apathy
and by personally urging all Demo
Gratis to vote, victory IL assured,
There are always enough stay-at'
home voters to change the result In
close districts and the whole Demo
cratic problem Is to get these laggard
roters to the polls.

A CONGRESS-
Roosevelt and csaaoa Agreement to
Prevent Reforms

President Roosevelt tried to be
aaroit in giving his advice TO the
voters Of the United States when he
wrote that letter 10 q congressman.
which was intended for the whole
e0antry TO read His admoRition that
TO change the leadership and organ
iIation of the house okrepresentativeS

shows that he believes with Speaker
Cannon it is necessary to stand pat
on the tariff and that the labor organ,
nations should be defeated in their
EFFORT to obtain legislation that is nee
essSry to protect them from trust and
corporation eoercing through govern,
meat by injunction. Yet he says: we
favor the organization Of labor Is we
favor the organization Of capital but
ON condition that organized labor and
organized capital alike act in a spirit
of justice and fair dealing and due re-
gard to both the letter and spirit OF
the law" Cannon is ~notoriously. OPP
posed to all the demands of labor and
will. If elected speaker of the next
congress, pack the committee or labor
against labor legislation, and yet Presi,
dent Roosevelt declares that ito
change the leadership of the house"
would be a party catastrophe, so he
must agree with Speaker Cannon in
his autocratic declarations against re-
form,
President Roosevelt says; I'VE ia
vor the organization of capital" and as
the vast organization of capital is
known as trusts, and as Cannon is
known as a trust and corporation man
and the president is so anxious to see
him reelected speaker, what other
conclusion can be drawn except that
the president while making a great
display of prosecuting trusts, though
not one has been really punished, is
really favorable to such organizations
of capital, The spectacular hauling
of q trust into court and filming it eff
feots nothing for the people who are
plundered by trust high prices; in
fact, the prosecuted trust will I'M
doubtedly increase its prices and thus
make the consumers of its products
| pay the fine. The way to help the peo-
| pie is to take from the trusts and COM
bines their special privileges, such as
the tariff protection that Mr.. Roose-
welt agreed with Speaker Cannon that
the next congress, If it has n Repub'
lican majority, is to refuse to consider,
As President Roosevelt declares that
Ito change the leadership and organi-
gatlon OF the house would mean con-
fusion" he therefore would back up
Speaker Cannon in packing the COM
mittees of the next congress to pre-
vent consideration of tariff revision,
and of the antiinjunction bill, which a
former Republican congress passed
unanimously, with Cannon in the
speakers chair, but which he now de-
nounces as anarchistic,
Mr.. Roosevelt, like other politicians,
will find 1t difficult to carry water on
both shoulders; he cannot handle the
Cannon pitch and not himself be de-
0led
