My skin peeled, and the high fever played havoc with the lustre of my hair, which came out in punches. also had three large bed sores on my back, -. two on the shoulders and one at the waist. 1 could have cried the first time I saw myself in @ mirror. had lost fully thirty-six pouIsls, and looked like a consumptive. did not gain very rapidly, and my appetite was very poor. When l was able to get around, had all my friends advising remedies, and all guaranteed sure cures l, tried many, but they were of little help, and until 1 tried Cuticura Resolvent I had had no real relief. That gave me such an appetite that felt half starved about all the time, and immediately began to gain in weight, my complexion cleared, and 1 felt better. The bed sores went very soon after few applications of Cuticura Ointment, and when used Cuticura Soap 0s shampoo and Cuti- cura Ointment as a massage, my hair began to regain it's former glossy ap- pearance. 1 am really all made over. and cannot say enough for the Cutioura Remedies.

AT THE LOCAL THEATERS

Saens, and many others of the worlds best known musicians Vladimir De Pachmann was selected to represent the fraternity of famous piano virtuosi and the committee invited him to make an address, De Pachmann pre- pared thoughtful and interesting discourse and occupied his platform seat at the appointed time on a certain evening. The chairman--he shall be nameless here-was a bumptious and tactless person who not only appro- priated full hour for his own talk, but also introduced several speakers who were not on the program at all. It was almost midnight when the chairman said to the audience:
 Vladimir De Pachmann, whose name is his best introduction wher- ever musical folk are assembled, will now honor us with his address"
 De Pachmann rose, and said calm; ly: My address is Hotel Deutscher Hof, on the Koniggratzer strasse, city of Berlin, and I now wish you all good night, for am far from home"

ST. GAUDEN's DOUBLE EAGLES.
Minor Changes to be Made in New Coins-Demand Exceeds Supply.


 Coins-Demand Exceeds Supply.
 Philadelphia, Dec. 12.-Preparations are being made at the local mint for resumption of the coinage of the new St. Gaudens double eagles. The coins, however, will be somewhat different from the first lot of 5000 coined, which are now commanding a premium.
 The design, except for several minor changes, will be the same. These modi- tications, it is understood, consist prin- cipally of the elimination of the much discussed sharp edge which madesthe gold pieces hard to stack; the substitu- tion of figures for the Roman numerals and slight lowering of the relief work.
 Because of the large demand for St. Gaudens gold pieces, the sub- treasury has already placed an order with the mint for supply. The first consign- ment, it is expected, will arrive to- morrow or Saturday. It is probable that a limit will be placed on the num- Der of coins to be allotted to banks and individuals
 The mint finished the coinage of the first issue of 5000 several days ago and then stopped pending further instruc- tions from washington.

SKELETON AT HIS FEAST
A Thing of the Past for a Portland,
 Me; Man.

Many person in New Haven sits down to a table laden with good things, but a staring skeleton at the board warns them that they satisfy their ap- petite at their peril This skeleton of indigestion has become a phantom of the past to many persons who have restored their digestive organs to a normal condition by taking our delic- ious cod liver oil preparation, Vinol. Vinol is rich in alterative clements which restores natural assimilation and makes rich, red blood which in turn strengthens every organ in the body to do its work as nature in- tended.
 MT. w. E. Waterhouse of Portland Me, writes: "I suffered so long with stomach trouble and indigestion that lost flesh rapidly. Vinol cured me after everything else had failed. It strengthened my digestive organs, gave me a hearty appetite, and I can eat anything without the slightest distress. l do not believe any other medicine equals Vinol for stomach troubles and indigestion"
 We ask New Haven people who suf- fer with Indigestion, and every weak, aged or rundown person to try Vinol If it does not help you we will return pLlchase money. Hullls Corner Drug Store, corner State and Chapel streets, ccrner Howard and Congress avenues.

 Sidney Greenstreet. as Lancelot Gobbo, was the funny man in fact as he is supposed to be, and in the act with his father was as amusing as could be desired.
 The performances of this company have suffered somewhat from the fact that splendid productions of the plays which they gave here, have been so re- gently given, by other actors.

ALL FOR GOVERNOR HUGHES. New York Republicans United by
 Roosevelt Utterance.

New York's vote will be practically solid for Governor Hughes in the re- publican national convention. This is the universal verdict of the politicians upon the local effect of President Roosevelt's announcement last night that he surely would not accept 8 nom nation for a third term.
 To the opponents of Hughes, the am nouncement came like a thunderbolt. They had expected that the president would withhold his dictum for many months, and that in the meantime, under cover of his potential candidacy, they could choose delegates who would be anti Hughes in their sympathies.
