DON'T SWALLOW DRUGS FOR
 SKIN AFFECTION.
Discovery Proved That Skin Disease
 Exists in the Skin Only-Cure the Skin Through the Skin.

The old method of trying to cure skin disease by treatment through the blood by way of the stomach has now been given up by all scientists. It has been proved that the only sure way to relieve and cure skin disease is by treating the disease where the disease is.
 The remedy discovered and used by Dr. Decatur D. Dennis in his practice with such remarkable success in cases of eczema. psoriasis, ring worm, bar bers itch and other such diseases and which he finally gave to the world un- der the name Of D. ID. D. Prescription. is now effecting almost miraculous cures everywhere.
 Thousands of people have written warm personal letters testifying to the wonderful results obtained by the use of this remedy. especially in cOnnec- ton with D. D. D. soap. One valu- able feature is that it stops all itch and burning instantly. immediately re- lieving the patient of agony and suf- fering. while continued applications effect a positive cure.

Don't Whisk Your Hat.

Never use a whisk broom to clean a
hat either stiff or soft, particularly
a soft hat, as it gradually removes the
fine surface originally on the hat. The
worst effect, however, is the wearing
away of the band and binding by such
rough usage. The effect Is more
quickly shown on the best grades of
bands and binding. A fine hair brush,
one of curved shape, made especially
to use under the curl Of the hat, is
good. Best of all, however, is a thick
piece of wooden cloth. Such pieces are
now made in the form of pads, with
a strap across the back, SO that they
can be held securely In the hand

Told Who He Was.

The game warden of Colorado was
walking oft in the mountains on one
occasion when he met hunter with
his gun. The official suggested that
that ought to be a good country for
hunting at certainly isl said the
hunter proudly. Il killed one of the
finest bucks yesterday ever saw, and
he weighed over two hundred" 1t was
the season when deer may not be shot
without subjecting the hunter to a
heavy fine. well, that is fine one
said the warden, "and do you know
who you are talking to" Being assur-
ed that he did not, the official said.
"Why, am the chief game warden of
Colorado" The hunter was only taken
aback for moment, when he asked,
''And do you know who you are talk
ing to-" The warden didn't know.
well, sir" said the hunter, appar-
emily much relieved, you are talking

The Primitive Violin.

IN its primitive form the violin was
a direct development of the Tyre and
monochord-the strings from the for,
mer and the elongated box, with its
sound holes, finger board and movable
bridge, from the latter. The history
of the violin began with the invention
Of the bow some time before the thir-
teenth century, when the wolfe, or vielle,
used by the troubadours, made its ap-
pearance. This instrument underwent
many changes until the middle Of the
sixteenth century, when the true violin
model appeared. The primitive violin
had little or no contour. 1t was not
until the thirteenth century that the
vielle was scooped out at the waist.
The corner blocks were added in the
fifteenth century and are attributed
to Germany. For nearly century
the sound holes were shifted all over
the instrument before they were cut
in their proper place and the bridge
fixed between them.-Circle Magazine.

Two of Kind.

A revival meeting was in progress,
and Sister Jones was called upon for
testimony. Being meek and humble,
she said: 81 do not feel as though I
should stand here and give testimony.
1 have been a transgressor for good
many years and have only recently
seen the light believe that my place
is in a dark corner, behind the door"
Brother Smith was next called upon
for his testimony and, following the
example set by Sister Jones, said: 81,
too, have been sinner for more than
forty years, and do not think it would
be fitting for me to stand before this
assembly as model. think my place
is behind the door, in a dark corner,
with Sister Jones'" And he wondered
why the meeting was convulsed with
the laughter Of those who came to
pray.

"FIirtinq" with Brook Trout,


If the farmer boy is more successful
il his catch than the city fisherman it
is because he realizes the advantage
of keeping out of sight Of course the
supposition is that other conditions are
equal. Familiarity with q stream of:
ten has much to do with the size OF
the string. Trout especially love to
hide under wooden bridges, water
soaked logs, branches, etc. They seem
to realize that safety is found in such
places. When the current will not take
the worm to these spots one must re-
sort to flirting" This is done by
holding the hook in the left hand and
bending the pole until the tension is
sufficient to throw the worm over the

clipping" In Europe.


According to immemorlal usage, Ed.
ropean servants are entitled to tips as
an assured part of their income. At
the hotels the theory is that the land
lord furnishes guest private room
and the use of the public rooms, heat
and light, food and dishes, but not
mental service. For convenience he
keeps at hand corps Of servants who
will respond to the guests summons,
but at his expense. In old times trav-
elers We're attended by their own serv-
ants to wait on them. The modern
custom echoes the ancient. The trav-
eler no longer carries with him ret
inue of servants, because he can hire
temporarily those of the landlord. The
customary fees are the payment. To
avoid feeling is really to cheat the serv-
ants, who need all they can get, heav-
en- knows. A chambermaid at the best
hotels receives as wages only about 50
a month. Tipping servants in America
is a regrettable imitation of the Euro
pean custom without its resting on the
reasonable basis of the foreign instltu-
tions.-Travel Magazine.

A Presidents Daughter.


When President Grants only daugh-
ter, Nellie, afterward Mrs. Sartorls,
was a miss of twelve years, she at
tended a private school in Washington.
One afternoon, says the author of 1.-THE
Olivia Letters" Nellie's lessons were
not learned. The carriage came for
her, but the teacher dismissed it with
the request that it should return at
the end of half hour. The half hour
came and glided away with the lesson
still unlearned. The carriage came
again and was dismissed. At the end
of the second half hour the lesson was
committed, and Miss Nellie was per-
mitted to go. The next day at the
usual hour the young lady arrived, &C
companied by her mother. The teach
er began to fear she had lost her most
cherished pupil, but Mrs. Grant came
to thank her for performing her duty.
Teach her," said Mrs. Grant, that
she is only plain, simple Nellie Grant,
subject to the same rules which govern
all the scholars. This course will have
my sincere appreciation"

CHICAGO COAL MARKET

Chicago, June 9.-In the. main coal
prices In Chicago are practically un-
changed from last week. II may be
said that the market Is a shade
stronger, due In part TO the movement
OF less unsold coal and due also In
part to the heavy demand In the lake
trade and to the fact that some rail-
roads are beginning to store COAL
Screenings are especially strong, al
though prices have not advanced. In
rare cases lump Goals are offered at
ridiculously low prices. Domestic coal
continues to show record movement
TO this territory and It .s question
whether the appearance OF warm
weather would bring about an imme-
diate relapse. since dealers are almost
entirely sold out.
More anthracite coal is coming to
this territory than Is customary, which
is probably accounted for by the ex-
cessive demand In the east. In Chica.
og the largest sizes are more In de-
mand while in the country dealers are
running more to the small sizes. The
May business is considered as a little
below normal, although inquiries In
dicate good demand for the latter
part OF this month and throughout
July On all grades OF coal car
shortage is beginning TO be exper-
fenced. This is especially acute on
long allrail hauls.
