FEARFUL BURNING SORES.
Boy In Misery IL Years-Eczema In
Rough Scales, Itching and In
Manufactured by Cuticura.

"Cuticura has put a stop to twelve
years of misery I passed with my o n
AS an infant I noticed on his body a
red spot and treated same with differ
ent remedies for about five years. but
when the spot began to get larger I
put him under the care of doctors.
Under their treatment the disease
spread to four different parts of his
body. During the day it would get
rough and form like scales. At night
it would be cracked. inflamed and bad.
ly swollen. with terrible burning and
itching. One doctor told me that M
sons eczema was incurable. and gave
it up. I decided to give Cuticura a trial.

The Tell Tale Voice,

"If you want to tell whether or not
the man you are talking to is telling
the truth don't look him in the eyes,"
said a Denver bank teller to some
friends 1T is he voice. when you
don't look at the eyes. hat tells you
whether the other fellow is lying. We
use he system frequently in the bank.
A man will come in to tell us some
business tale. We look at his fee or
his hands or his knees, but never In
his eyes. If he's telling the truth his
voice will be firm n straightforward.
and the absence Of your gaze in his
eyes will not affect it. But If he's
lying he'll be confused by your &C.
ton, and his voice will tremble; he'll
hem INT haw, and clear his throat.
You may rest assured then that he's
stringing you"

War Bills.

War is not only hell, as Gen. Sher-
man said. but it is an expensive hell.
The world is to-day paying for the
cost of two recent and highly expen-
sive wars. and yet some persons o
der where all the money goes. The
South African conquest cost Great
Britain a cool 1 1000. 900, 900, and the
Beers must have spent a sixth as
much in defending their little re-
publlcs. To get a foothold in Man
churia and drive back the Russian
armies took a tidy 81, 100, 000, 900 from
the Japanese treasury, while ambi-
tions for a greater empire cost tho
car 81. 500. 600. 900. In these two wars,
not counting the many millions which
Germany is still paying out in south
west Africa. the stupendous total of
$4,000. O00. 900 was expended. A large
part Of this may be set down as utter
waste of capital. ~,

Scoring the Ruttermaksr.

The officials of the dairy division Of
the department of agriculture are
planning a score card that will not
only score butter and cheese but that
will score the buttermakers and
cheesemakers also. This Is a good
plan. and the card would do much
good il it could be honestly used.
Some of the managers of factories
would be surprised at the low scoring
their manufacturer would receive. 1t
would certainly be a good thing for
the dairy schools; for 1t would show
the dairy students ranking high up.
as a rule. This would be an object
lesson to the boards that control the
creameries and cheese factories.

DAIRY NOTES..

Three cows without salt produced
65 pounds less milk in a week in an
experiment station test.
Only clean tin milk utensils should
be used. Patched or rusty tinware
should not be tolerated.
When you buy a separator get one
that runs easy, washes easy and
skins clean and you'll have the best.
Whitewash looks and is mighty
nice on the inside of the COW barn and
a little salt will make 1t stick better.
Eastern cowmen practice soiling in
summer. They figure green corn or
alfalfa fed this way is worth 500 to
$25 per acre.
Many a dairyman blames his cows
when he ought not to do so. 1t often
quiets his conscience. though, and the
cows don't care

There Are a Few Of Them But Many

Some time ago | had the pleasure of
creameries in the county in which I
live. AS a result of hat visit / came
to the conclusion that there are many
very dirty creameries and also many
very clean ones. l could but wish
that the people that buy the butter

creameries knew the difference be.

ers' Review. If they did l am sure
that the dirty creameries would all
shut their doors and go out of bust
ness, while the other creameries
would have all the business. If we
could get a publicity of hat kind 1t
would be a powerful lever for lifting
up the quality of our butter and other
dairy products.
The dirty creameries were. wide
open to the flies and dust. Old milk
and dirt were spattered all over the
floor. The churns smelled strong,
and some of the utensils smelled as IL
they had not been thoroughly washed
out for a long time. The clean
creameries had cement floors, and the
doors and windows were all screened.
The u%ntensils all smelled as clean as
II bran new. 1t is a pleasure to think
of eating butter coming from such
creameries.

Preachers Still Needed.

The crusades are out of date, but
the spirit which prompted them-the
spirit of devotion. piety INT s~elf-sacri-
fce-is not extinct. If 1t were there
would be no use for the churches to
keep their doors open. The minister
who breaches the fundamental truths
Of religion and brings them home to
the hearts Of his hearers as truths
which should be the greatest interest
OF life will neither lack hearers nor

HERO IS HONORED ANYWAY.
Navy Undisturbed by Paris Rumor
About Paul Jones Body.


1t makes little difference to me wheth-
er the body buried at Annapolis IS that
Of Paul Jones or not I am not well
enough posted on anthropology or path
ology to dispute with those Parisians
who assert that it IS not The sigrif-
canoe Of the honor remains, and that is
what we Americans are most concerned
about"
This statement, from a prominent naval
officer, seems TO reflect the sentiment of
the Navy concerning the recent reports
from France that the body which was
brought from France and buried at An
napOlis was not that of the famous pa
triot and sailor
Some Partisan scientists, according to
published dispatches, say they have found
that the body was that of some unknown
sailor, and that the measurements made
by the anthOpoligists were not at all
convincing.
In discussing the matter the naval Of
ficer said:
The American people have paid a high
tribute to Paul Jones IN having what
they thought TO be his body brought
here. II 1t is not his body, what does
it matter. They are paying respect to
the memory Of one of their greatest
heroes, and even though his body may
be a thousand miles away his spirit is
IN Annapolis, and all the reverence that
is done his grave IS significant Of the
deep love that the American people have
for him"
