DREADFUL DISEASE
CURED BY CUTICURA

"About four years ago I was afflicted
with black splotches all over my face
and a few covering my body, which
produced severe itching irritation, and
which caused me great deal of annoy
ance and suffering, to such ON extent
that l was forced to call in two of tho
leading physicians Of -. After
q thorough examination of the dreaded
complaint they announced it to bo
skin eczema in its worst form. They
treated me for the same for the length
OF one year, but the treatment did me
no good. Finally became respondent
and decided to discontinue their SER
vices. Shortly afterwards, my husband
in reading copy of n weekly New York
paper cav an advertisement of tho Cuti-
cura Remedies. lie purchased the en-
tire outfit, and after using tho contents
OF the first bottle Of Cuticura Resolvent
in connection with tho Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. continued tho use of the
Cuticura Remedies for six months, and
after that every splotch was entirely
gone and the affected parts were left as
clear as eyer. have not felt n symp.
tom OF the eczema since, which was
three years ago. The Cuticura ReIne-
dies not only cured mo OF that dreadful
disease, eczema, but of other complicated
troubles as well, and I have been the

No Txp!analIon for L Other Than
a Decline In Prices In London
and Higher Rates for Money.
AMERICAN SMELLING A BIG LOSER
List Opened in Nervous Manner
and in Few Moments the Market
Weakened Very Much and Prices
Were Breaking Wildly-Total Sales
and Closing Quotations.
(By Associated press.)

NEW YORK, March 25.-There
was violent slump In prices ca
the Stock Exchange again today ac-
companied by excited trading, but
without news to account for it other
than a decline in prices in London
and higher rates for call money.
The monetary situation die not
seem to attract much attention,
however, and according to brokers
and members of the banking firms
there was nothing to explain the
rapid melting away of prices except
that holders of stocks wanted to-
regard TO the price they got for
their shares.
American Smelling was one OF
the weakest features, calling All cx-
trome l3 Ia points, but the United
States Steel Corporation shares and
tho railroads also made declines.
Bankers generally said that no
one was in difficulties and thar
brokerage houses mad protected
themselves with ample margins.
The fluctuations were extremely
nervous Immediately after the open
ing and ii was only few minutes
until the entire list had weakened
and prices We're breaking wildly.
American Smelling, Amalgamated
Copper, Northern Pacific and Read.
ing went down without rcstra:n..
carrying with them the general list
without exception. After the first
decentralization there came quiecer
period of trading and the murae;
stcadied itself only to give, away
again just as soon as the pressure
to sell was resumed. Towards tie
close of the day buying demand
apparently to close out short cos
tracts, appeared and gave prices n
rail-. At the last the market was
excited and irregular with quota,
tons better than the lowest, but
showing wide declines from Saiur-

LITTLE ENTHUSIASM
Over the Irish Home Rule Bill In the
ationaIst-Papers.

Dublin. May S.-The introduction OF
Mr.. Birrclls Irish bill into the House
of Commons yesterday has not evoked
much enthusiasm in the Nationalist
newspapers. but there is tendency to
favor its acceptance as an instalmcnt
Of larger policy.
"Thc Irish people" says the free
mans Journal. "will give the most
careful consideration to the proposals
with the desire to find in them meas
urc Of usefulness.
The Irish Independent remarks that
the measure gives Ireland but the
minimum of what she could accept as
administrative reform and puts an END
to the indefensiblc system of govern
mcnt by irresponsible departments,
The Union press bitterly opposes the
bin. The Irish Times says it violates
every principle Of common sense and
that it's adoption would be followed by
separation as surely as night follows
day"
The Daily Express says: The coun-
ell will be a standing committee Of the
separate party and the loyal minol ity
will be wiped out. The checks provided
are entirely illusory.

TO PHOTOGRAPH MARS.
Special Camera Being Built for Work
on Canals and Polar Caps.

Chicago. May S-Work Oh Il camera
designed especially to be used by
members of the I.owcll expedition to
photograph the canals and polar caps
Of the plant Mars WAS completed
yesterday by William Gactncr. Chica-
go maker Of scientific Instruments.
The apparatus will BE- shipped today
to Professor PcrCival Lowell of the
Massachusetts Institute Of Technology
who is sending out the expedition. The
party which will Do under the direction
of Professor David Todd Of Amherst
College will sail for South America on
Saturday and will establish himself at
some point in the Andes where the
planet Will appear in the zenith. Mars
Will be nearer the earth this summer
than it has been i'll Il years and for
this reason astronomers are making
elaborate preparations FOR Il study of
the planet. Mr.. Gactncr's camera is
in the general form Of y fourfoot
brass tube, orc Cnd fitted To De clamp
cd to the cnd Of an 1S-inch telescope
and the other containing d shutter and
plate holder. The main tube is in two
parts. the one trlescoped into the other
and adjusted with device for slow
focusing.
The unusual features of the appara-
tus are a peculiar arrangement of the
platcholdor by which Il large number
of exposures may be taken on one
plate and a concavc lens which en-
largcs the image on the plate instead
of diminishing it. as do the lenses of
the ordinary camera.
BY pressing on Il pneumatic bulb
the operator may move the plate 50
that as many as 80 exposures may be
taken. each exposure showing a differ
cnt phase of the planet On account
of the difficulty Of following the plan
cts motion accurately, however, the OK
posures cannot be longer than 10 or l.
seconds. Each image on the negative
will be about onc-cighth Of an inch in
diameter.

TALES TOLD HERE.

some remarkable stories are
being told OF this simple home
prescription curing rheumatism
and Kidney trouble, even after
the most noted health resorts
failed to give the slightest relief.
Here is the prescription ana
directions for taking: Mix by
shaking we'll in a bottle One-half
ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one ounce Compound kargon,
three ounces Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla. Take as dose one
teaspoonful after meals and at
bedtime.
No change need be made in
your usual diet, but drink plenty
Of good water.
This mixture, writes one
authority. has a peculiar tonic
effect upon the Kidneys; cleans
ing the clogged up pores of the
eliminative tissues, forces the
Kidneys to sift and strain from
the blood the uric acid and other
poisonous waste matter, over
coming rheumatism, Bladder and
Urinary troubles in short
while.
Every prescription pharmacy
can supply the ingredients, which
are easily mixed at home. There
is no better blood cleansing agent
or system tonic known, and GER
tainly none more harmless or
simple TO use.

STEAMERS WILL SAIL.
No Little Strike VIII Be Allowed to
Disarrange Sailing Schedules.

New York, May S.-From present indi-
cations it does not appear that the big
transatlantic steamship companies pro-
pose tn permit any disarrangcment of
the sailing engagements as 4 result Of the
strike of lOrGSnOremcn which has been
becoming Increasingly serious during the
past few days. 1t now appears that the
companies have decided 10 give the
freight only secondary consideration for,
The present at least. and 10 send their
paSScnCer-fllCG steamers away on time
even if their holds are practically empty.
Thus far only one of the big trans-At-
lantic lines has permitted any apprccfi-
bic delay in sending away Il schedules,
steamer. This was the Kroonlan1 of the
Red Star Line. which sailed last Mon
dav after n two-days' delay. Yesterday
half a dozen big liners sailed only slightly
behind their regular schedules. and the
companies declare that the steamers
scheduled to go out today will leave their
docks on time. All of them, however. will
take short cargoes. The Baltic cr the
White Star Line will have only 10000 tons
and the NOordam of the Holand-Amcri-
can Line will carry only about two, thirds
of her formal cargo of freight. Both will
have full cabins.
The attitude Of the steamship compa-
MICS toward the men is unchanged - far
las could be learned today. J. II. Thomas
manager of the operating department Of
the International Mercantile Marine Co.
(which controls the American. Atlantic
Transport Red Star and White Star
Lines, declared positively today that his
company will never acccde tn the de-
mands of the strikers. "Nc can't afford
to do it." he said. Mr. Thomas added
that good progress is being made in dis
charging ard loading all the ships now in
port and that they all are expected to
sail on time.

The headquarters Of this associa ton are

tend the reunion may be sent. In this
connection the following letter was re-
ceived:

My Dear Sir: | unrescrvedly approve
OF the project which the Thomas Jcff"r-
son Memorial Association of the United
States has in hand. 1t seems To me that
a reunion of the descendants of the sign
crS of the Declaration of INDEPENDENCE
on or about the date when this immortal
document was signed would he Il most
impressive incident in come elton with
the Jamestown Exposition. Such a re-
unCn should certainly have a tendency
to stimulate patriotic sentiment and
arouse among those who are within its
influence a better appreciation of the ini-
tial efforts of the fathers of the republic
to establish a new nation and impress
upon it the best ideals of a free govern

citation has issued circular advising
sheep men throughout the state that a
conspiracy is being planned by eastern
wool buyers to force down the price
of wool in spite of manufacturers de-
mands. Producers are advised not to
sell their wool under any circum-
stances at less than 1906 market and
the associations offers to buy the wool
at last years prices if Eastern buyers
will not pay as much. Should the
growers take advantage of the offer,
the association will be incorporated
