BLOOD POISONING
Hand Cut With Lead Pipe = Arm
Became Painful and Swollen
Sufferer Was in Despair, for
Amputation Seemed Last Resort.
CURED IN A @ N BY
CUTICURA REMEDIES

ga few years G o while at work, I
cut my hand with a piece Of lead pipe
and, as it was but a mere scratch, did
not give it any attention. A few days
after my arm began to pain me and
became terribly swollen. I went to see
a physician, who told me it was a case Of
blood poison, and if there were no signs
Of the Inflammation leaving I should
have to have my arm amputated. He
treated me for a month or so, but did
not help me. Another doctor told me
it was inflammatory rheumatism, but
his medicine seemed to 10 no good. I
gave up all hope and was discouraged.
At last a friend told me to try a good
blood medicine. I used Cuticura Re
solvent Pills for three weeks, when, to
my surprise, the place where 7 had
cut my hand began to tester and then
broke out in a large sore. The swelling
went down, and I applied the Cuticura
Ointment and inside OF a month my
arm was entirely cured, and I owe my
recovery to the Cuticura Remedies. I
can never praise them enough. and I
recommend them to all my friends.

Dreaming a Derby Winner.

i dare say that every year one or
more people dream of the Derby win

guessing in their dreams, and two or
three guess right. Take the Fayonius
case. A man came to an acquaintance
of mine and said, What is the Latin
for the southwest wind? p "Favonius, -
said my friend That's the name.'
said the other Il dreamed last night
that Fayonius won the Derby, but
could only remember that southwest
wind was the English of the word
when ! awoke." There was no Fa-
vonius in the list Of horses, but Oh
reaching the race course the men
found that 1.-The Zephyr COLT had been
newly named - Favonius. Probably
the name Zephyr (west wind)\ colt had
been converted into Favonius South
west wind in the sleeping mind of the
dreamer, though when awake he could
not remember the Latin word for
southwest wind Favonius won. The
dream was a good guess, no more

won a victory over the Socialists in the

1899, with room for seventy students,
which is not nearly enough for all who
apply. A special feature is the segre-
