S FURIOUS HUMOR ON CHILD,
Itching, Bleeding Sores Covered Body -Nothing Helped Her-Cuticura
 Cures Her in Five Days.

After my granddaughter of about seven years had been cured of the measles, she was attacked about a fortnight later by furious itching and painful eruption all over her body. especially the upper part of it, forming watery and bleeding sores. especially under the arms, of considerable size. She suffered a great deal and for three weeks We nursed her every night, using all the remedies We could think of. Nothing would help. We tried the Cuticura Remedies and after twenty four hours We noted considerable i'm. proyement, and after using only one complete set of the Cuticura Remedies, in five consecutive days the little one, much to our joy, had been entirely cured, and has been well for long tine.

JUDGE EMULATEs SOLOMON.
Odd Trick Soon Decides Who Owns a
 Philadelphia Dog.

Philadelphia.-Su over the owner ship of a dog has been settled in court here in novel manner The plaintiff. Mrs. Mary Crane, swore the dog be, longed 10 her. The defendant Pat. rick OMalley. asserted with equal positiveness that the animal was his, so the magistrate concluded that the dog should decide the case, and the sagacious little fellow ran to the side of the woman.
 In arranging for the test the mag. istrate sent the woman into the street two squares from the court, and O'Malley was stationed two squares in an opposite direction. The dog. a lit. tie fox terrier. was liberated by the magistrate. Mrs. Crane stood motion less. without even holding out her arms toward the little dog. OMalley, on the other hand, set up loud whistling.
 The dog glanced at the crowd on the sidewalk in front of the police sta tion, and then turned it's head toward O'Malley. The latter held out his hand. but the animal faced about till if caught sight of Mrs. Crane. Then end. ed its hesitation With a sharp bark of delight 1t raced away over the pave ment, and the next moment was leap ing about the woman.

Poured Pepper Into Boys Eyes.

Ardmore, Pa - Determined tha. Henry Skinner. Jr., aged 12. should not peep when it came his turn to be it" in a game of hide-and-seek, a half dozen youthful companions held him flat on his back and poured red pep per into his eyes. His screams fright. ened the boys implicated in the affair and they fled. while Skinner was led home by neighbor
 The victim is a son of Dr. Henry Skinner, and the youths accused of the cruel treatment are members of prominent Ardmore families. The po- lice took up the case, but proceedings will depend upon the result of the boys injuries. Under medical treat ment his eyes are being gradually re- stored to normal conditions and his eyesight may not be affected

When the Orator Scared,

In the course of an address extolling the virtues of the medical profession, Dr. L. B. McBrayer of Asheville, N. C.. used the following characteristic southern language:
 Could l borrow from the sun his cheery smile. from the moon her golden beams of light. from the south. ern zephyrs their softness. from the rose it's fragrance, from the rainbow its celestial beauty, from the babbling brook it's laughter and song. from the sea its awe and wonder, from the val ley it's serenity. and from the noun tains their majesty and put these down upon piece of azure blue sky, with comets for commas and planets for periods, I might then paint for you what the practice of medicine is like"

On Mt and Hutr1nr-

Man is the only animal that laughs and weeps, for he Is the orly animal that is struck with the difference be- tween what things are and what they ought to be. We weep at what thwarts or exceeds our desires in seri- ous matters; We laugh at what onfy disappoints our expectations in triaes. We shed tears from sympathy with real and necessary distress; as we burst into laughter from want of sym pathy with that which is unreasonable and unnecessary, the absurdty of which proyokes our spleen or mirth, rather than serious reflections on It.

 CAR THAT WRECKED IT.
Affair Closely Resembling a Duel to the Death Afforded Diversion to Crowd on San Francisco
 Street Recently.

san Francisoo-An electric car. a gasoline runabout. & willing and over. jealous motcrman, two amateur au. tomobile enthusiasts and a chorus of apprciative street ear patrons-these composed the principals. supporting cast and audience which figured In a one act arenic spectacle put on with. out prior announcement in the middle or Sutter street between Pierce and Scott.
 The event. which had every element of tragedy bat at the same time was replete with delicate humor which converted it into a comedy, was in the nature of a gladiatorial struggle to the death between electricity and gas. oline. As an exhibition of mortal com. bat it was an equal of the melodramat. ic thriller of 10 cent theater, for all concerned got 1t il the neck in the end
 The automobile-a one cylinder af fair-started the trouble; but then, too much should not he said about it's faults for the dear departed should not oe reviled. Suffice it that the machine suffered paralysis in the middle of the eastbound street ear track and that the ministrauons of its two oceu- pants Were of no avail. It's wheels absolutely refused 10 go around either in answer To the appeal of it's own engine or when urged by the strong arms of its disgruntled passengers. Then the street car came up behind and stopped
 "Wha 'smatter?s sang the motor. man 10 the accompaniment of a bell solo with his gong.
 Give us a shove came the answer. Were stuck
 The motorman was accommodating. He unslung the heavy connection bar used when a well car goes to the as sistance Of sick one, and attaching one end to the front of the car braeed the other against the back of the auto mobile. Then he turned on all the juice
 It was a foul blow. The automobile was looking for steady shove and it got a slap. The bar flew in the air, the street car gave a bound, -here was one resounding crash and a couple of yells. and tie automobile was a subject for the machinery morgue It had refused to budge even with several hundred volts of Patrick Calhouns soothing syrup behind it, and the heavy car made a scrap heap of it. But in its expiring gasp the auto sent back as good as had been given and eyened up the score. It's drive chain. wrenched loose from the machinery, writhed out with a hiss of hate, struck fair and true. and for the fraction of a second formed a connection between the motor box of the street car and one of the rails.
 Bang" Retribution had been re- ceived The car demolished the auto mobile, but the automobile short cir. cuited the whole Sutter street system in return. And then the passengers got out of he dark. silent car and gazed at its lifeless bulk standing there over the ruin it had wrought Only one or two of them swore: all the rest sat down on the curb and laughed.

 less and Pleasant to Take.

What will appear very interesting .o many people here is the article taken from New York daily paper. giving a simple prescription, as formu. lated by noted authority, who claims that he has found a positive rem edy to cure almost any case of back ache or kidney or bladder derange- ment, in the following simple prescrip- tion. if taken before the stage of Brights disease:
 Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-hall ounce: Compound Kargon, one ounce: Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Shake well in a bottle and take In teaspoonful doses after each meal and again at bedtime
 A well-known authority, when asked regarding this prescription, stated that the ingredients are all harmless, and can be obtained at a small cost from any good prescription pharmacy, or the mixture would be put up if asked to do so. He further stated that rlile this prescription is often pre- scribed in rheumatic aflictions with splendid results, he could see no req son why it would not be a splendid remedy for kidney and urinary trou- bles and backaehe, as it has a peculiar action upon the kidney structure, cleansing these most important or gaus and helping them to sift and filter from the blood the foul acids and waste matter which cause sick. ness and suffering. Those who suffer can make no mistake in giving 1t trial.

The Dairy Industry
Is Flourishing

When the ISLANDER a few years
ago began urging farmers to 90 in
to dairying and encourage the estab-
lishment of one or more creameries
in the county, not can of cream was
beng shipped out of the county and
every pound of creamery butter hand
led by the stores was shipped in.
During the year ending December l,
the Lopez creamery alone paid to
Lopez farmers over $36, 900 for cream
and sales to the Anacortes creamery
amounted to several thousand dollars.
During the first two weeks of this
month, checks issued for cream pur-
chases at Lopez amounted to $112O.
The Friday Harbor creamery will
probably handle from $40, 600 to $50, :.
900 worth of cream during the cur
rent year, and yet the dairy industry
of the county is only in it's infancy.
