AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.
Covered With Yellow Sores-Grew
WorSe-Parents Discouraged
Cuticura Drove Sores Away.

"Our little girl, one year and half old,
was taken with eczema or that was what
the doctor said it was. We called in the
family doctor and he gave some tablets
and said she would be all right in a few
days. The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. @ He said she was
teething; as soon as the teeth were
through she would be all right. But she
still grew worse. Doctor No 3 said it was
eczema By this time she was nothing
but yellow, greenish sore. Well, he said
he could help her, so we let him try it
about week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimple on one of her eyes.
OF course we 'phoned for doctor No. 3.
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 it was an ulcer.
So we went to Oswego to doctor No. 4,
and he said the eyesight was gone,
but that he could help it. We thought
we would try doctor No. 5. Well that
proved the same, only he charged $40
more than doctor No. 4. We were nearly
discouraged. l saw one of the Cuticura
advertisements in the paper and thought
we would try the Cuticura Treatment, so
/ 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 dis.
appeared. OF course it could not restore
the eyesight, but if we had used Cuticura
in time l am confident that it would have
saved the eye We think there is no rem
edy so good for any skin trouble or i'm
purity of the blood as Cuticura. Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Abbott, R. F. D. No. 9. Full

Norris E. Rowe Good.

The big crowd that saw the circus
last light partly compensated Norris
& Rowe for the extremely hard luck
they had yesterday when their tent
blew down and the crowd in the after
noon had to stand in the rain waiting
for the performance to begin.
The Norris & Rowe show is a well
come one. They have been coming to
this city for a number of seasons. Each
year they present a better and better
program, live up to the promises made
in advance. always maintain a clean,
wholesome show and have none of the
disagreeable features that have charac-
teriZed other amuSementS of this ma
ture. No games of chance nor gambl-
ing IN any form was ever tolerated by
Norris & Rowe and no feature objec-
tionable to parents have ever been
exhibited 1t is small wonder then
that this amusement institution is a
potent magnet to draw the better ele-
ment to the circus.
If more shows were conducted as is
Norris & Rowe there would not be the
outcry against the people of the cir
| Gus and theater that is heard every
| once in awhile. People would be able
to attend these exhibitions without sa-
crificing their self-respect and moral
scruples.

HAD HIS LAWYER PLEAD
GUILTY THEN VAM0SED

PORTLAND, May 11.-Lloyd Burtis.
who authorized his attorney to plead
guilty for him and then left town,
failed to appear before Judge Frazer
in the circuit court this morning to
receive sentence for contributing to the
delinquency of 15-year-old Emma
Nevis.
Judge Frazer sentenced the absent
Burtis to year in the county Jail and
to pay a fine Of 500 ana costs. Bur-
it's bail bond of 5000 was declared
forfeited and a bench warrant was is
sued for his arrest. Burtis had been
tried once in the circuit court On the
charge and the jury disagreed.
In pronouncing sentence this morn
ing Judge Frazer said that Burtis had
committed fragrant perjury at his trial.
Burtis' attorney. who was present,
said that Burtis' family knows his
whereabouts, but refuses to divulge
it. 1t was said that the officers have
a clue to Burtis' hiding place and will
apprehend him within a few days.

THE TRADING STAMP EVIL.

From reports coming in to The
Statesman it may be adduced some OF
the business men of the city, parflcn-
larly the smaller retailers. We're led into
the trading stamp trap by the smooth
talking advance men and the ques-
ton has arisen as to the legality OF
contracts signed without a considera-
ton. For the benefit of those who have
realized their error The Statesman is
able to forecast an opinion to the effect
the contracts are not valid.
Merchants of the city should thor
oughly canvass the situation. The con-
,1itions are such that extra burdens
imposed upon them ami their custo-
mers will undoubtedly result in loss OF
individual business ultimately. This,
added to the five per cent loss of profits
is likely to bring about conditions not
conducive to commercial prosperity for
those who have been talked into a
plausible advertising scheme which
benefits no one but the man who is
placing tax on the merchants bust
ness and upon his customers pur-
chaSeS.
Because of this The Statesman asks
all merchants who have been consider
ing the trading stamp plan to wait UNI
til the results are announced.

common people, and even royalty mas

than one mistake of this kind Is ac-
credited to Mary, Queen of England
wife of Phillip II of Spain, and known
in history by a sanguinary title. Re-
oeated disappointments in this line al
ter the announcement that an heir 10
the throne was expected deepenej the
gloom that Swallowed the life OF this
cruel daughter of Henry VIII ana
Catherine of Aragon, completed the es-
arrangement between herself and the
unprincipled Spanish prince whom she
had married, and caused her subjects
to regard her with feeling or pity
akin to contempt. OF course, an out
come of this kind is not expected in
the case of the Queen of Spain. The
stork works in strict accordance with
the laws of nature and refuses to be
caioled into a departure therefrom
even by the most eminent physicians
of the realm. Only this and nothing

TOWNS KICK FOR BETTER
SERVICE BY RAILROADS

OLYMPIA, Wash, May 1.-THE
towns of Yelm, Thurston county, and
Mesa, Franklin county, have made
complaint to the state railway COM
mission to compel the Northern Paci-
fic to build suitable depots and pro-
vide better train service.
Complaints have been issued and
the railroad cited to appear and show
cause why il should not give the SER
vice demanded. Yelm, one of the old
est towns in Thurston county, has a
population of over $50. with a big
farming community behind it and does
a heavy local business with Tacoma.
Few trains stop at Yelm, and passen-
gers frequently must go to Roy, five
miles. to board train. The COM
plainants want a regularly employed
agent, and that more trains be regular
ly scheduled to stop. Practically the
same complaint is made at Mesa,
which is a thriving young Franklin
county town above Pasco on the North
ern Pacific.
