GAINING ON THE FAIR SEX
According to This Report Men Will
Soon Outrumber the
Women.

Frau Gnauck-K uehne is one of the
greatest German authorities on the mod
ern feminist movement, and after mature
study and the collection of statistics she
has come to the conclusion that the
superiority of women in so many European
countries is a fact which in the first place
is in no sense an evil, and in the second
place is rapidly disappearing.
In another twenty years, she belleves,
the tide will begin to turf the other way
and the men will be in the majority even
in such countries as England and Ger
many, where at the present time women
immensely predominate. Some OF her
statistics are most interesting. In Lux
embourg, for example, in 1890 there were
1902 women for every 1000 men,. There
are now only 999. In Australia the pro-
portion has been reduced in the same time
from I.o44 to l,035, in Hungary from LOIS
to l.CN9. in Switzerland from ,057 to l.035,
in Sweden from LOGS to 1,049, in Germany
from :.040 to 1882, in England from l,C55
to l,O47. She does not believe that any
European nation except Russia will long
continue to increase rapidly in proportion.
England has begun to follow the example
of France and Germany will certainly fol-
low E~ngland's footsteps.
In all advanced" European states the
birth rate is either becoming stationary,
or begins to show a backward tendency.

Vestry. Miss, Jan. lst (Special).-The
case of Mrs. C. w. Pearson, who resides
here, is a particularly interesting one.
Here is the story told by Mr.. Pearson,
her husband, in his own words. He
says
MY wife's health was bad for a long
time. Last July she was taken terrible
bad with spasms. l sent for the doctor,
and after making a thorough examination
of her, he said undoubtedly the cause
of her trouble was a disordered state of
the Kidneys. His medicine didn't seem
to be doing her much good, so as 1 heard
about Dcdd's Kidney Pills, 1 got her a
box just to give them a trial. Well, the
effect was just wonderful. I saw that
they were the right medicine and l got
two more boxes. When she had taken
these she was so much better that she
had increased thirty pounds in weight:
She is now quite we'll. and we owe it all
to Dodd's Kidney Pills"

back that once 1 tainted. The kidney
secretions were much disordered, and l

BOYS TERRIBLE ECZEMA.
Mouth and Eyes Covered with Crusts
Hands Pinned Down-Mirac-
ulous Cure by Cuticura.

old, he had eczema. The sores extended
so quickly over the whole body that we at
once called in the doctor. We then went
to another doctor, but he could not help
him, and in our despair we went to a
third one. Matters became 30 bad that
he had regular holes in his cheeks, large
enough to put a finger into. The food
had to be given with a s, DON, for his
mouth was covered with crusts as thick
as a finger, and whenever he opened the
mouth they began to bleed and suppurate,
as did also his eyes. Hands, arms, chest,
and back, in short the whole body, vas
covered over and over. We had no rest
by day or night. Whenever he was laid
in his bed, w had to pin his hands down;
otherwise he would scratch his face, and
make an open sore. l think his face must
have itched most fearfully.
I'VE finally thought nothing could help,
wife with the child to Europe, hoping that
the sea air might cure him, otherwise he
was to be put under good medical care
there. But, Lord be blessed, matters came
differently, and we soon saw a miracle. A
friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We
made a trial with Cuticura Soap, ONT
ment, and Resolvent, and within ten days
or two weeks we noticed a decided i'm
provement. just as quickly as the sick
ness had appeared it also began to dis
appear, and within ten weeks the child
was absolutely well, and his skin was
smooth and white as never before. +.
