In Torments with Terrible Sores ON
Face and BOdy-Tore at Flesh
Cured by CutIcura.
"My little son, when about a year
and half old began to have sores
come out on his face. They began to
come on his arms, then on other parts
Of his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. At the
end of about a year and a half of suf-
fering he grew so bad l had to tie his
hands in cloths at night to keep him
from scratching the sores and tearing
the flesh. He got to be mere skele-
ton and was hardly able to walk /
sent to the drug store and got cake
OF Cuticura Soap and box of Cuticura
Ointment, and at the end of about two
months the sores were all we'll. He
has never had any sores Of any kind
since, and only for the Cuticura REM
edies my precious child would have
died from these terrible sores. l used
only one cake of Soap and about three
boxes of Cuticura Ointment. Mrs. Egg

To reduce your flesh, increase your

ly out with a nut-pick. Should this fail,
try blasting.
Brilliancy may be impaired to the
complexion by powdering with dia-
mond-dust.
Hair on the lips may sometimes be
avoided by requiring the young man
to shave before calling.
There are various ways of remov
ing blackheads, in the south lynching
is much in vogue.
When scrowfeet'' will not yield x

BICYCLE REVIVAL UNDER WAY.

In 1904 it was estimated that the
total number of wheels made in the
United States was scant 100000
And of this number a large proportion
was Grated for an ocean voyage, anc
dispatched east, south and west to
foreign lands.
The figures for 1906 closely approx
mated 100000 bicycles, and the manu-
facturers began to show more interest
in life. 1t did not take an excessive
amount of shrewdness to see that
the tide had turned in earnest, aud
special preparations were made for
the past year, in which the truly nota-
bic total of half a million wheels were
produced.
And most important of all, while
the number of wheels intended for
foreign use has only slightly increased
| from year to year, the quota demand
ed by riders in this country exceeded
in 1906 the sales of the two previous
| years combined.
| Naturally manufacturers are ask
| ing themselves what may be expected
in 1907 Preparations have already
been made for turning out 750,000
wheels this year, and it is conserva-
/ lively estimated that this quantity
will not exceed the demand
| Indeed, the revival of the bicycle is
so much an accomplished fact, that it
is rather late in the day to inquire
the reasons thereof Doubtless the
very best one is realization of the
great truth that the man or woman
who does not use a wheel, misses so
much out of life. We all realize
that--all of US who ever owned a
wheel in the old days. We know that
we ate better, slept better, and I'M
questionably were better physically
when the wheel was utilized part OF
every day either for business OF
pleasure.
And Wien the matter is looked at
from the prosaic dollars and cents
side, it is still easier to prove that
the non-riders are losing money and
time as we'll Someone with head
for figures has recently shown that
the owner of a wheel will average
half an hour saved morning and even
ling by it's use This is six hours 8
weel1-three working days a month
At low calculation il is the addition
lof $40 a month to any mans earning
capacity, without taking into account
the ten or twenty cents day which
you can credit yourself as having res
cued from a traction company. Ao(
that's not a small sum either; say $6(
g year.
But that is not all, when you come
to measure the advantages of CHI
present day use of the wheel, because
the bicycle this year rot only cost
less than the good wheel of '95 or '96
but is really better bargain. In tn
years in which the price has beel
steadily hammering down, the conlpe
tition for business has been so tlGrc
that today's wheel is the best tn
world has ever seen. 1t is more PEI
feet scientifically, and is bette
equipped.
So, you see, there are plenty Of req
sons for revival of the sanest spor
we ever had; plenty of reasons TO
Iasking yourself whether you had no
better join the riders again.

TAKING an Inventory.

George Morse the well known Hev-
erhiIl auctioneer, used to tell a story
OF a young fellow who had been some
thing of a "high-roller" whom ne
once employed Two or three days
after the young man entered Mr..
Morse's employ, says the Boston
Herald, he was handed the keys Of a
very nice house in the aristocratic
part of the city, the furnishings of
which were to be disposed Of and
told to take an inventory of the con-
tents and to be back before 3 o'clock,
so that they might get the an
nouncement in the papers.
When the young man got to the
house he found sideboard with a
coed stock or liquor and cigars re-
naming.
About 5 o'clock Mr. Morse asked
where the new man was No one had
seen him since he Lev in the morning,
and a clerk was semi to investigate.
On arriving at the house he found
the new man lying on couch near
the sideboard, with empty bottles
and cigar stubs scattered about. He
was sound asleep, but had evidently
meant to do his work, for in one
hand he held long blank form on
which inventories are recorded, and it
had one entry at the top, which
read, "One revolving carpet.

The SaIome Question.

Joseph Sohn in Forum-The rejec-
ton of "Salome" involves question
of far-reaching importance: the free
dom of dramatic representation. The
growth of dramatic and musicodram-
attic performances during the past
years has been phenomenal. Never
before have people fiocked to theater
and opera in such numbers. Never
has the stage been more fruitful
topic of discussion. Why? Because
people are daily becoming more in
tensely interested in the actualities
of life. They thirst for actual ex-
perience. They wish to put life to
the test for themselves. Is it not
natural, therefore, that, during their
hours of leisure, they should eagerly
throng to witness the representation
of life on the stage-life in its actual
ity, in all it's phases, the intense life
in the present, which is fraught for
them with an ever-increasing import
ance, which all conditions are tending
to stimulate, and which no reactionary
tendencies, whether dictated by con-
viction or policy, can long arrest?
Does any one really believe that at
such a time and in a country the
boast of which has ever been the
right of free discussion the represen-
tation of musical drama performed
at the greatest centers of modern cul-
ture abroad can really be long with
held from an American public de-
sirous of judging for itself?

Verdict for DR.. Pierce
AGAINST THE

malicious attack upon DR.. r. ". Pierce

later. twas boldly charged in the sland-

Favorite Prescription, for the cure OF
woman's weaknesses and ailments, con-
tanned alcohol and other harmful ingredi-
ents. DR.. Pierce promptly brought suit
against the publishers of the Ladies'
Home Journal, for s2OO,0OO,O0 damages.
DIR. Pierce alleged that Mr.. Box, the
editor, maliciously published the article
containing such false and defamatory
matter witH the intent of injuring his

These facts were also proven in the trial OF
the action in the Supreme Court: But the
business of DR.. Pierce was greatly injured by
the publication of the libelouS article with
its great display headings, while hundreds or
thousands who read the Wickedly defamatory
article never saw the humble groveling re-

good deal of exaggeration exists
as to the effect of Mr.. Roosevelts al
titude towards the railroads. If all
the truth were know It is likely that
he Is not half so radical as some of
his enemies would have us believe.
The danger of injurious Federal leg
is1ation has unuuestionably been much
exaggerated. That something VIII
eventually be done to prevent repe-
tition of old abuses must be accept
ed as inevitable: but any radical or
seriously Injurious national legisla-
ton against American railroads Is al
most impossible Notwithstanding the
risdeeds of some of their managers,
the American railroads are in too
sound a position and OF too great
benefit and Importance to the country
at large to permit the passage of any
dangerous legislation. President
Roosevelt neither asks or would ne
support any measure of that char

Special to Evening Teller.
BOSTON, Mass, April 3.-Dr. Ed
ward Everett Hale, preacher. pub
licist and man of letters, was IS years
old today. Since his appointment as
chaplain of the senate DIR. Hale has
spent his winters in Washington, but
his summers he continues to pass at
his home in RoXbury.
Despite his great age DR.. Hale is as
vigorous as he was a quarter of
century ago, and his mental faculties
are unimpaired. He is a great lover
of outdoor life and to this he attributes
in great measure his splendid health
in his old age.
An Eminent Educator.
In celebration of DR.. Hale's So birth
day anniversary the Lend IA Hand So
ciety, which DR.. Hale founded, is
seeking to raise a fund of $4,000 for
the old age of it's founder. The work
is in charge OF an executive commit
tee of which Kidder, Peabody & Co,
the Boston bankers, are the treas
urers.
No living man has done more to
raise the moral standards of Ameri-
cans than has DIR. Hale He has been
conspicuous figure in all kinds of
reform and rescue work, both in Bos-
ton and in many other and distant
cities.
! From the time he received his first
license to preach he has been a con-
spicuous figure in all the most adj
vanced forward movements in charity
and education.
Only a Christian Minister.
! DIR. Hale refuses to he called a
clergyman He prefers to he desig-
mated only as a christian minister"
The title of professor of Ameri-
canism" TO his generation has been
aptly used in referring to DIR. Hale
and It perhaps best describes his most
conspicuous efforts.
His entire career his hereditary in
/ f1uences and environment and his nat
ural inclinations and choice of friends
all tended to make him q patriotic
American citizen. and fitted him To do
for the American public what he con-
ceived his professor Of America" as
