BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING.
Rash Covered Face and Feet-@ould Cry Until Tired Out-Speedy
 Cure by Cuticura.

My baby was about nine months old when she had rash on her face and feet Her feet seemed to irritate her most, especially nights. They would cause her to be broken In her rest, and sometimes she would cry until she was tired out. I had heard of so many cures by the Cuticura Remedies that thought I would give them trial. The improvement was noticeable in few hours, and before l had used one box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet were we'll and have never troubled her since. l also used it to remove what is known as cradle cap from her head, and it worked like charm, as it cleansed and healed the scalp at the same time.

WHAT'S THE USE?
To Pour in Coffee When 1t Acts as a

Fasters have gone without food for many days at time but no one can go without sleep. For a long time I have not been sleeping well, often lying awake for two or three hours during the night but now 1 sleep sound every night and wake up refreshed and viz orous," says Calf. woman.
 Do you know why? It's because used to drink coffee but finally cut it out and began using Postum. Twice since then 1 have drank coffee and both times l passed a sleepless night, and so 1 am doubly convinced coffee caused the trouble and Postum re- moved it.
 My brother was in the habit of drinking coffee three times a day. He was troubled with sour stomach and I would often notice him getting soda from the can to relieve the distress in his stomach; lately hardly a day passed without dose of soda for re- lief.
 Finally he tried cup of Postum and liked it so we'll he gave up coffee and since then has been drinking Postum in it's place and says he has not once been troubled with sour stom- ach."

Blank news print has already reached the apparent high water mark, yet advances have been coming regularly since January 1. Many well-posted paper men predict that blank news-print will sell m e..c open market within the very near fu- ture at 1 cents per pound, carload lots.

Mrs. Courtney Has Patron Arrested on
Charge of Battery as outgrowth

a North Raymond Avenue,
Phones: Sunset 1907, Home 2124.


PASADENA, March 18.-As the re-
suit of a row in which he Is alleged to
have hurled table ware at the head of
the mistress of the household, James
Norris of a local plumbing firm this
evening finds himself in the city jail
under a charge of battery against the
person of Mrs. Lizzie Courtney, who
conducts a fashionable boarding place
on East Colorado street. The details
of the affair are not being shouted from
the housetops, and the episode is alto
gether both lively and exciting one.
According to the complaint, Morris
came to the boarding place, where he
lived in a condition which is ordinarily
termed intoxicated. 1t seems that he
was considerably vexed and that sonle-
thing which the mistress of the house
did pleased him not.
Just what happened then Is not yet
a matter of record, though 1t probably
will be when Morris comes before JUS
tce of the peace tomorrow morning to
explain his actions However, 1t is al
ledged that he used force and violence
toward the woman of the house, in the
course of which he hurled at her Ian
guage the reverse of polite, and also
some china.
The upshot of the matter was that,
in spite of the standing of the boarding
establishment, Mrs. Courtney consid-
cred it better to have the man removed
by the police, scandal or no scandal,
than to become the victim of over
whelmng modesty.
At any rate, Morris was removed to
strong quarters for the night, and there
he will probably remain in spite of his
respectabiity, for, and this is whls-

HENPECKED BEAR REGRETS
LOST JOYS OF BACHELOR

NEW YORK, March 18.-Ever since
Jim took up housekeeping with the
duchess when she arrived here from
Germany. three weeks ago, he has been
having a hard time of it. There are
henpecked husbands among the polar
bears, as there are in human families,
and Jim is one of them.
He was mighty glad when his mate
came over the seas to make her home
in the Central park menagerie, for he
had been a widower for two years, but
his keepers now think that the old
polar regrets his escape from single
bleSSednesS. His mate is a tyrant in
her way and makes it exceedingly dis
agreeable for him.
When it comes to eating time she
tries to keep all the fish or bread for
herself, and it is only by strategy that
Jim can get his portion. His usual
method is to sneak up behind her,
snatch a loaf of bread, and run with it
to the top of their cave. The Duchess
gets the better part of the food, occu-
pies the pool or cave when she feels
like it, and if her mate goes near her
she growls and shows her teeth.
One day he seemed to have made up
his mind to show the foreigner that he
was boss of his own home. When she
got surly at meal time he opened his
jaws and growled as If he was going to
eat her up. But he was only making a
bluff and the Duchess called him, as
she made a snap at his nose. He
hustled for the top of the cave and
staid there until she had finished her
meal.
What seems to make things worse for
Jim is that his mate is all kindness to
the big bachelor grizzly in the adjoin-
ing inclOSure. When the grizzly aOeS
to the iron bars that separate the two
dens the Duchess hastens there, and
the two rub noses. Naturally this
makes Jim bit jealous, but he cannot
stop their counting. He tried it one day
last week, and his mate pushed him
into the pool and went on gossiping
with her neighbor.

CROWN CITY TO WITNESS
TWO INnUESTS TUESDAY
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, March 18.-Coroner
Lanterman will have two inquests on
his hands in Pasadena tomorrow morn
ing. One will be the inquest over the
remains of Jesus Coronado, the man
killed last evening by the Santa Fe
San Diego local and the other will be
over the body of Edith Downey, the
negress, who was found dead in bed
Sunday owning.
The latter does not promise to be
sensational case as there seems no
reason to doubt but that the woman
died from heart failure.
Coronado, it seems, left some prop
erty and it is probable that his children
will sue the Santa Fe railway for the
death of their father as the locomo-
tive was running backward at the time
of the accident and had only small
white light out to indicate which way
it was running. Coronado probably
thought it was going from instead of
toward him when he drove onto the
track.

HONEST WOMAN
PAYS OLD NOTE
DEBT WAS INHERITED FROM
HER FATHER
Obligation Was outlawed Many Years
Ago, but the Woman Remained
Faithful to Promise to
Dead Parent
Long Beach Office,
129 East Third Street.
Phone-Home 297.


LONG BEACH, March 1S.-Falthful
to the pledge exacted of her by her
dying father who had been unable to
accomplish during his lifetime what he
asked her to do when he was dead,
woman back in the old Quarker state
has just paid up a note signed more
than fifty years ago. The note with the
added interest, which was compounded
at per cent, amounted to 5000. The
check for this amount was received this
morning by Albert Jones, 1927 Bishop
street, who recently came to his city
from Loeb, Kas.
The money came by way of an inheri-
tance from Jones' father, who was at
one time a miller III central Pennsyl-
vania. The signer of the note and the
elder Mr.. Jones were partners in the
milling business half a century ago.
Their business was finally closed out,
at which time a note for $1,000 was
taken by Jones as a portion of his share
in the business. The money received
today is an eighth part of this prorated
note which was destroyed years ago
as an outlawed and valueless claim.
The man who signed the note did not
forget it, however, and throughout his
life attempted to pay it up. On his
deathbed his daughter and his sole heir
promised to pay the note If possible,
and if not to leave 1T to those who
should come after her to settle with
Jones' heirs.
Years of work and waiting found her
finally with the $1,000 needed to pay off
the obligation her father took upon
himself, and with also a sufficient
amount of money to pay the interest.
The woman located the heirs of the
elder Jones and the money was equally
divided between them.
Her father made many speculations
and business ventures" Jones said this
afternoon, in speaking of the woman
who had finally paid off the old and
forgotten obligation. "I understand
that the daughter is now comfortably
wealthy, and L expect that one of the
fathers investments has turned out
well at last, though he did not do we'll
in the milling adventure and some
Others"
