oriqln Of "piceadilIy.-

A new theory as to the origin of "Piccadilly." was put forward by Archdeacon Bickersteth about 70 years ago. says the London Chronicle. He had discovered a Piccadilly among the Chilterns. the central one of three conical hills near 1vinghoe. and he learned that this hill had at one time been known also as Peaked hill. Might not London's Piccadilly like wise be a peaked hill No doubt the hill in Piecadilly is not remarkably peaky. but then the same thing might be said of the Derbyshire peak itself. There is another Piccadilly near Ab- erystvith. and yet another near Bol ton But in the provinces one al ways suspects borrowing from Lon don In such oasea There are Hyde Park Corners in provincial towns that have 10 Hyde Park to justify them

 Week of Crackers and Cod,


 New York. Feb 23.-F. V. Knouse, caretaker of a hotel at Havemeyer Point, Oak Island. on the ocean side of the Great South Bay, and Harry Reynolds, boy who assists him, have been marooned ten weeks by the alternate freezing and thawing of Great South Bay. and the gales and cold snap that made the passage of the bay in scooter impossible.
 If Knouse had not had gun, with which he had shot ducks. he and the boy might have starved. For a week the weather was so boisterous that no ducks visited the point and the care taker and his helper lived on crack CTS and salt cod and half rations at that.
 This week they managed to get to Babylon for the first time in ten weeks and each ordered a steak, with French fried potatoes.

Feat In Brlcklayina.

In the erection of the house of rep
resentatives Office building, adjacent
to the United States capitol at Wash
ington. an interesting fact has devel.
oped in connection with the brick ma.
'sonry work. The first brick was laid
at the site on the afternoon of July 8,
1905, and on July 3, 1906, there had
been laid in the walls 100000 brick.
This is believed to be the greatest
number of brick laid on any building
In one year In the United States. and
probably In the world. One of the
causes conducting to this record break.
ing feat was the remarkably open
winter of 1905-06, In those winter
months the work continued almost
without interruption from either snow
or cold, and not more than II or II
days were lost during the entire win

Writes In Diplomatic Language.

Though Elihu Root, secretary Of

cessful diplomat, the verbiage Of the

is not his. AS a lawyer of large
practice he acquired the. habit Of
directness and incisiveness, which Is
lily suited to the ways and customs
of diplomacy. Realizing this folly, It
was not long after Mr.. Root as
sumed the duties of secretary of state
that he discovered that the safest
course for him to pursue would be
to have one of his assistants clothe in
the formal and stilted language of
diplomacy every communication of
Importance he had to make to a

SURELY WINS THE PALM.
One Mean Man Who 0utdoes Some
Others.

Many stories have been told of
mean men, such as he who used
wart for collar-button and he whose
birthday gift to his son consisted in
washing the windows SO that the
lad might watch the cars go by.
This man, however, seems to have
won the palm:
There was an extremely mean man
In New Hampshire. who gas the pro.
prietor Of a hotel. BY his direction
rules were posted in the hosiery for.
bidding almost every conceivable priv.
ilege to those not guests Of the place.
There was absolutely no chance for
the casual loafer to get newspapers.

not even free seats in the ONCE.

loafer gazing at the old clock that

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.
Covered with Yellow sores-0rew
Worse-Parents Diseouraged-cu-
ticura Drove Sores Away.

"Our little girl, one year and
half old, was taken with eczema or
that was what the doctor called II.
We called in the family doctor, and
he gave some tablets and said she
would be all right in q few days.
The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. 2. He said she
was teething, as soon as the teeth
we're through she would be all right.
But she still grew worse. Doctor
No. 3 said 1t was eczema. BY this
time she was nothing but yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, SO we let him try 1t about
q week. One morning we discovered
little yellow pimple on one Of
her eyes. OF course we 'phoned for
doctor No. 8. He came over and
looked her over, and said that he
could not do anything more for
her, that we had better take her
to some eye specialist, since 1t was
an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to
doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could
help 1t. We thought we would try
doctor No. 6. Well, that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. 4. We were nearly dis
couraged. saw one of the Cuti-
cura advertisements in the paper and
thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, SO l went and purchased
a set Of Cuticura Remedies, which
cost me 81, and in three days our
daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment, and in one week all sores had
disappeared. or course 1t could not
restore the eyesight, but II we had
used Cuticura in time l am confident
that it would have saved the eye. We
think there is no remedy so good for
any skin trouble or impurity Of the
blood as Cuticura. Mr.. and Mrs, Frank

NEED OF NEW BUILDINGS.
Many Government Departments I'm
properly Housed.

Senator Hepburn has introduced .
bill for the purchase Of considerable
tract Of land in the city Of Washing.
ton. to be used for public purposes.
The plan is old and similar bills have
been submitted from time TO time.
From two important points Of vlsw
such proposal should command ia.
vorable consideration. Hil
The country Is rich enough to make
Its national capital a gem among the
cities of the world, and the people Of
the country should take pride in max.
ing It such. That Is the aesthetic side
of the question. The other side Is
prosaic and strictly economical. The
need of new buildings becomes more
evident from year to year. The de-.
partment Of state is now crowded In
with the navy department and the war
department, to the great inconveni.
ence Of all three. The department Of
justice and the department of labor
and commerce now carry on their
work in rented buildings widely scat
tered, inconvenient and unsuitable.
Some day each of these must have its
own proper building. 1t Is estimated
that the sums now paid for rentals
amount to more than liberal interest
on the cost of suitable structures.
The Hepburn bill provides for the
purchase Of land with view to the
ultimate erection of these buildings.
II fs estimated that $10,O00,000 will
secure for the government, through
purchase and condemnation, about
1900 acres of land adjoining the mall
that extends westward from the cap
ital to and beyond the monument. II
would include all the area lying be.
tween the mall and Pennsylvania ave-
nue.. 1t Is altogether the proper place
for our department buildings. The
value Of the land increases rapidly.
A few years from now will probably
find 1t worth $15,OOO,OOO. This is the
prosaic, side OF. the question:. strictly
a matter of national economy -
We have the dollars, and we need
the buildings. We should have the
pride to make our national capital a
city beautiful, and we should have the
wisdom to houseSor departments in a
way that will enable them to carry on
their work withs every possible adj
vantage Of location. space and sur
roundings.- New York Sun.

Thorouuhly Reliable.

II ever there was reliable and safe
remedy 1t is that old and famous por-
GUS plaster-Allcock's. 1t has been in
use for sixty years, and is as popular
to-day as ever, and we doubt IL there
is civilized community on the face
Of the globe where this wonderful pain
reliever cannot be found. In the selec-
ton Of the ingredients and in their
manufacture the greatest care is taken
