scALY ERUPTION ON BODY.
fered 10 Years = Completely
Cured by Cuticura.

Small sores appeared on each Of
my lower limbs and shortly afterwards
they became so sore that l could
scarcely walk. The sores began to
heal, but small scaly eruptions ap-
peared. The itching was so severe
that 1 would scratch the sores until the
blood began to flow. After suffered
thus about ten years made a renewed
effort to effect a cure. The eruptions
by this time had appeared on every
part of my body except my face and
hands. The best doctor in my native
county and many remedies gave no
relief. All this was fruitless. Finally
my hair began to fall out and I was
rapidly becoming bald. A few months
after, having used almost everything
else, I thought I would try Cuticura
Ointment and Cuticura Soap. After
using three boxes I was completely
cured, and my hair was restored, after
fourteen years of suffering and an ex-
penditure of at least $50 or $50 in vain
ly endeavoring to find cure. B.

Tin from the SAGE.

WELL" yawned the sage of the park
bench, this business of chasing dogs
around the town and taking them to
the pound may be all right in some
ways, but it certainly is wasting a lot
OF valuable power"
"Power?" calculated the park pc.
nceman in surprise.
Eyes, power. When a dog is in a
good humor he wags his tail, doesn't
he?"
Believe he does"
well, now, if we could keep all the
stray dogs in good humor and stand
them in row and let them wag their
tails from morn till night, why, man,
there would be enough power general
ed to run a trolley line. Niagara
wouldn't be in it. Wonder to me
some genius don't try to harness
those wags."

LIVING is CHEAP IN JAPAN.
How They Manage to Exist Comfort
ably on Small Amounts.

It is estimated that a professional
man in Japan can live with his wife
in comfort on the sum of $3.50. This
means one large Invisible apartment,
g small kitchen, a bathroom, study
and O. storeroom, charming garden,
one servant and surroundings of great
refinement. Mats are the covering OF
the floor, of course; pillows the seats;
table linen is superfuous where lac.
quered trays and paper napkins are
used; personal laundry is at it's min
imum where two hot baths day are
the custom. The fagots used in cook
ing are not much larger than mans
finger and fuel for ironing is unneces-
sary where clothes are stretched prop
erly upon a frame. Perfect privacy
is one of the Injuries of this minute
menage, for high bamboo fence
shuts off the view of strangers. Each
article of the house is carefully Sc
lected and some of them are of rare
beauty and of a durability that per-
mits them to be handed on from one
generation to another. No waste takes
place, for every crumb of the food pre-
pared is eaten. Flowers are the chief
decoration and the science of flowers
is a part of the accomplishments of
the lady of the house. The large
room, with it's several mats and its
adjustable partitions, becomes at
night time the sleeping places of the
several members of the house, but
during the day quickly is converted
into a spacious, peaceful, fiower-dec-
grated apartment, the bedclothes be-
ing laid away neatly on the shelf of
the storeroom. Simplicity, delicacy
and refinement characterize homes of
these qualities-the homes of the
poor who feel no poverty-the abodes
of those who having little would not
complain had they even less.

When I reached Jacks house the
Burnish Brothers were grabbing
groutchy music out of guitar that
didn't want to give up, and the mad
revel was on.
The Burnish Brothers part their
hair in the middle and always do ''The

ENTICED BY THE BAR.
Strenuous Actions Mildly Explained
by the Minister.

Many stories are told of the &C.
centric doings and sayings Of an
old clergyman who lived in Maine
some years ago. At one time there
had been a fight among some men,
one of whom was seriously hurt. A
trial took place, and the old minister
who had seen the ARRAY was sum-
moned as a witness.
What was Salson doing?" was
the first question.
ooh, he was slashing around"
well, sir, just what do you mean
by that?"
why, he was knocking about him
here and there"
Nov, sir, kindly tell us plain
ly what Salson did to this man."
"Why, he-he enticed him." said
the old minister slowly. HE enticed
him with crowbar. He used the
crowbar to persuade the man-to en-
tice him; and by series of pokes
and blows he succeeded in doing it,
said the minister. mildly.

bow and backed off we were all in
vited to listen to soprano solo by
Miss Imogene Lukewarm.
Somebody went around and locked
the doors, so made up my mind to
die game.
A foolish friend once told Imogene
she could sing, so she went out and
bought up bunch of tra-la-la's and
began to beat them around the parior.
When Imogene sings she makes
faces at herself.
If she needs high note she goes
after it like she was calling the dach-
shund in to dinner
Imogene sang "Sleep, Sweetly
Sleep" and then kept us awake with
her voice.
After Imogene crept back to her
cave we had the first treat of the even
ing, and the shock was so sudden it
Jared us.
Uncle Mil came out and quivered a
violin obligato entitled "The Lost
Sheep in the Mountain" and it was
all there is.
Uncle Mil was the only green spot
In the desert.
When he gathered the gourd up un-
tiptoe over the bridge you could hear
the nightingale calling to its mate.
1 wanted to get up petition asking
Uncle Mil to play all the evening and
make us all happy, but Will Bruce
wouldn't let me.
Will said he wasn't feeling very well
and ne wanted to hear the rest of the
program and feel worse.
He got his wish.
The next thing we had was Sybil,
the Illusionist.
Sybil did lot of mouldy tricks with
cards and every few minutes she fell
down and sprained her sleight of
hand.
Sybil was polish for sure
Then Swift MCGEE, the Boy Mono
loguist, flung himself in the breach
and told a bunch of Bixbys.
1t was a cruel occasion.
Swift had an idea that when it came
to cracking merry boohoos he could
pull Lew Dockstader off the horse and
leave him under the fence
AS monologuist Swift thought he
had George Fuller Golden half way
across the bay, and Fred Niblo was
screaming for help.
Swift often told himself that he
could give Marshall P. Wilder six

THE STORY OF A WISCONSIN
MAN IN WESTERN CANADA.
Three Years Ago Worth Only $4,000;
To-Day Is Worth $4,000.

The following is copy of letter,
Government throughout the United
States receive similar ones many
times during the year:
Cayley, Alta, Dec. z, 1906.
Agent Canadian Government,
Watertown, S. D.
Dear Sir:
Your letter dated Nov. 9th at hand
and was very glad to hear from you.
/ see that you are still at work per-
suading people to move into the Cana
dian Northwest. I must tell you that
l owe you many thanks for persuading
me to come out here, am only sorry
that l wasn't persuaded sooner, and
there is still plenty of good chances
for many more right at the present
time. hope that you will be able to
induce more to make a start out to
this part of the country.
Now l must tell you what I have
accomplished since 1 came out here
and it won't be three years till the list
of July. l shall shortly receive my
patent for my homestead, the home
stead cost me $1,000 in all, to-day it is
worth $4,000 per acre, but it is not for
sale. Then a year ago last May |
bought 800 acres at $500 per acre and
sold this fall for $4,000 per acre and
cleared profit of 100000. How is
that for the Northwest? / now have
800 acres of land and all paid for, Is
head of horses, 80 head of cattle, %
pigs, 2 sheep and about $50 chickens
and other poultry, and all new ma
chinery and everything is paid for.
We also bought lots in Calgary and
in High River. We gave $470 for
the Is lots and they are paid for. At
| present / consider myself worth $751;
100000, and when l left Wisconsin less
than three years ago I had about
| 100000 This year threshed little
over 1000 bushels of grain, have
about one thousand bushels of fine
potatoes and about five hundred bush
els of turnips. Mrs. Beisiegel sold
| about 5000 worth of garden truck and
poultry this fall. Now there are lots
of others in this community who did
as we'll as did in the same length of
time
The family and myself are all well
at this writing and hope this letter
will find you the same.
Yours very truly,

Cayley, Alta, Canada.

JUDGES at Their Best.

In the course of recent case be-
fore Mr.. Justice Darling the judge de-
clined to make a requested ruling,
saying that if he did so the court of
appeals would say he was wrong.
Counsel having expressed disagree
ment with this view, the judge said:
"Well, you know the court of appeals
as well as I do, perhaps better, for
you see them at work, while / only
meet them at luncheon" To which
the barrister dryly replied: Your
lordship sees them at their best.

Tobacco Smoke Poisonous.

1t is often said that tobacco smoke
is a powerful germicide. The COM
position of tobacco smoke is complex,
the principal constituents being oils of
a tarry nature. Nicotine itself Is a
strong germicide, but the quantity of
this poison in tobacco smoke is minute.
The oil matter which accumulates in
a tobacco pipe is highly poisonous, but
does not contain any appreciate guam
tity of nicotine, the chief constituent
Of residue being a very poisonous oil
known as pyridine. Tobacco smoke
contains decided quantity of carbon
monoxide, which is a preservative and
which must possess germicidal prop
critics. Recently it has been observed
that one of the principal constituents
accounting for the germicidal prop
critics of tobacco smoke is the power
full antiseptic formaldehyde.

This chaps name was Llewellyn
Joyce, and he considered himself a
perfect hellyon.
He thought all he had to do was to
roll his lamps at a lassie and she was
off the slate.
Llewellyn loved to sit around at the

Well Equipped.

The morning after the wreck of the
fast trains running between New
York and Chicago, an old farmer was
standing on the bank of the river
into which the train had plunged,
intently watching the water.
A stranger approached, and natu-
rally the conversation reverted to
the wreck and the fortunate escape Of
all the passengers.
1T was the costliest train in the
world" informed the stranger.
YES" grunted the otl still
watching the stream.
And also the best equipped" the
newcomer continued.
mo doubt about it, assented the
old farmer. 1--WE fshed dozen bot
