TORTURED BY
ITCHING ECZEMA
Suffered Tremendous itching Over

BIed Worse at Night, With
Soreness and Excruciating Pains
A Western Lady's
WONDERFUL CURE BY
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Last year at this time / suffered
with a tremendous itching on my
back, which grew worse and worse, un-
til it spread over the whole body, and
only my face and hands were free.
For four months or so l suffered the
torments of the damned, and had to
scratch, scratch, scratch, until | bled.
At night when l went to bed things
got worse, and / had at times to get
up and scratch my body all over, until
l was as sore as could be, and until L
suffered excruciating pains. L did not
know what it was, and resorted to a
number of blood purifiers, using at
times also Cuticura Soap. They told
me then that l was suffering from
eczema. Then l made up my mind
that l would also use Cuticura ONT
ment and Cuticura Resolvent. used
them according to instructions, and very
soon indeed l was greatly relieved. L
continued until well, and now | am
ready to recommend the Cuticura Rem
edies to any one who suffers as did your
obedient servant. Mrs. Mary Metzger,

son would give. Here in America in
lost and found cases there is no rec
ognized percentage of reward, but in
England there is such a percentages,
namely, half crown to pound; that
is to say, about 10 per cent. Ten per
cent is what the finder must be paid
in England provided he takes his find
to a police station or to Scotland Yard.
He always does so, as otherwise the
owner is apt to give him less than the
legal 10 per cent. 1 lost in London

handing out 5000 but that is what I'd
have TO do before the Scotland Yard
folks would have given me my prop

pared to give at least 10 per cent to
the finder. Ten per cent is the recog-
nizcd reward in lost and found cases

reward here. To my mind it is little
enough. and they who give less are to

Cleveland is again clamoring for Bill
Armour, the present manager OF the
Detroit Tigers. Regarding the situa-
ton a Cleveland authority says:
what is the greatest need of the
Cleveland ball club today?
1T is not third baseman. 1t is not
a fast outiielder. 1t is not another star
pitcher 1t is not any Of these things
separately, though in a way this great
est necessity includes all OF them.
The Cleveland clubs greatest need
is for 4 man who knows good young
ball players when he sees them and
can go out into the minor leagues and
pick up the real ones.
IF Charley Somers is willing to
spend $4,000 or $4,000 to capture
that flag-and we all believe. he is
the best thing he could do would be
to hire Bill Armour away from De
troit and let him do nothing but scout
for new material.

Stallings went to Buffalo in 1903 he
retained Grimshaw, utilizing him part
of his first season as an outf1elder. He
was then tried at first base and be-
came the Eastern league star in that
position in 1904.
In the fall of 1904 he was purchased
by the Boston American league club
and displaced Lachance at first base.
His work at first fell below expecta-
tons, owing to i'll health, but in the
latter half of the season he played
splendid ball, thus assuring his reten-
ton for 1906.

JUDGE BURNETTS CANDIDACY
INTERESTS SAN FRANCISCA ANS
His Personality and Reputation Locally
Established Through Notable
Trials at Which He Presided.

San Franciscans will take something
more than a passing interest in the
canvass of Judge Albert G. Burnett
of Sonoma County for place on the
District Court of Appeal Bench. Judge
Burnett has been called to this city
to preside over several important trials,
latest and most notable among them
the case of George D. Collins, and thus
his personality as well as his reputa-
tion has been locally established.
Soon after Judge Burnett was named
by the Santa Cruz convention for the
appellate bench the Santa Rosa Re-
publican printed the following article
with regard to his candidacy:
Albert G. Burnett was born on
farm in Oregon April 8, 1855. His
father was Glen o. Burnett, a pioneer
preacher of the Christian church. One
nett, a minister of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church, South: another uncle
was Hon. Peter Burnett, the first Gov
ernor of the State of California Judge
in this State. He lived on farm In
Colusa County from 1860 to 1856. He
lived with his parents in Woodland,
perian College for two years. The
family resided from 1858 to 1871 on a
farm near Vacaville. Solano County.
Judge Burnett has lived in Sonoma
County ever since that time.
His father was poor, and the lesson
of hard work and sacrifice was learned
by the subject of this sketch in early
life. He worked in a brick yard and
at farm labor to secure means with
which to go to school When seven
teen years old he began teaching, and
thereby was enabled ito take a four
years collegiate course. He taught
school altogether ten years in the
country districts, and at Bodega,
Healdsburg, Petaluma and Santa Rosa
He was admitted to the bar in 1887,
and in 1888 was elected District Attor-
ney of Sonoma County, and he served
the people faithfully two terms in that
office. He was elected Judge of the
Superior Court for Sonoma County in
1896 by a majority of 1900, and was
reelected in 1902 by largely in
creased vote. Judge Burnett ranks
among the strongest members of the
bench in California. In the course
of his judicial career he has had many
hard legal nuts to crack, and he has
never hesitated to do his duty. He
has been called to San Francisco to
try some highly important cases,
among them being the perjury charge
against the notorious George D. Col
Inns. The bigamous attorney found
his match when he appeared before
Judge Burnett. He was unable to get
advantage of the court at any point
and was promptly convicted 1t seems
highly desirable to have men of such
learning and force of character in our
higher courts, and Judge Burnett
ought to be elected by a tremendous
majority.
