scALY ERUPTION ON BODY.
Doctors and Remedies Fruitless-Suf-
fered 10 Years - Completely
Cured by C~uticura.

When / was about nine years old
small sores appeared on each Of my
lower limbs. ] scratched them with a
brass pin and shortly afterwards both
OF those limbs became so sore that
I could scarcely walk. When l had
been suffering for about a month
the sores began e heal. but small
scaly eruptions appeared where the
sores had been. From that time on
ward / was troubled by such severe
itching that. until / became accus-
toned to IL. / would scratch the sores
until the blood began to flow. This
would stop the itching for a few
days. but scaly places would appear
again and the itching would accom-
pany them. After l suffered about
ten years / made a renewed effort TO
effect a cure The eruptions by this
time had appeared on every part Of
my body except my face and hands.
The best doctors in my native coun-
ty advised me to use arsenic in small
doses and a salve. ! then used TO
battle the sores in a mixture which
gave almost intolerable pain. In ad-
dition / used other remedies, such
as iodine. sulphur, zinc salve. IS
Salye. - Ointment. and in fact /
vas continually giving some remedy
a fair trial. never using less than
one or two boxes or bottles. All
this was f~ruitless. Finally my hair
began TO fall out and | was rapidly
becoming bald. ! used IS -.
but II did no good. A few months
after. having used almost everything
else. | thought | would try Cuticura
Ointment. having previously used
Cuticura Soap and being pleased with
IL. After using three boxes | was
completely cured. and my hair was
restored. after fourteen years Of suf-
fering and an expenditure OF al least
$50 or $50 in vainly e~ndeavoring 10

HEADS SHAPED TO ORDER.
German Doctor Explains Causes Of
Various Formations.

At a recent convention OF German
naturalists and doctors DR.. Watcher.
OF Stuttgart. in an instructive paper
put forth a sensational theory to ex-
plain the formation OF the shape Of
the head Of infants. He maintained
that the head Of a child could be
nodded a~rtihcially. He found by ex-
perience that when a meiium-shaped
head Is placed in a soft cushion the
child turns on its back. or rests on the
back Of its head. in order TO free
mouth. nose and face. In this manner
the head rests smoothly. and a short
head Is developed. But If the medium
shaped head Of a child is placed on a
hard ~undcr-rest. Ike a hair mattress
or rolled carpet. the child's head
turns aside. as it cannot stand any
more on it's head than an egg. for the
muscle OF the back is weakened
Therefore. with continued resting on
the side a long head is developed. To
prove his assertions the lecturer pre-
scented a child whose mother and sis
ter are shortheadei. The child az IFS
birth had a short head, now after is
months II IS long skulled II the child
had been placed on its back. according
10 other experiences its head would
have been short-shaped. Or. Watcher
did not deny that the shape Of the
head was inherited. but >serted that
il could be greatly influenced by the
way the child rested.

Is very careful about her churn. She
scaldS IL thoroughly after using, and gives
IL sun bath TO sweeten it. She knows
that II her churn is sour IL will faint tho
butter that Is made in 1t. The stomach is
churn. In tho stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
ceSSes which arc almost exactly like the
churning Of butter. Is it not apparent
then that If this stomach-churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil OF a foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but tho corruption of
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
ination Of disease throughout the body.

An Insult to Army and Navy.

When the Cdmmanderin.C Chief OF
the United States Army is asked as
President OF the United States TO APP
prove the proposed constitution OF tho
new State OF Oklahoma he will find
throin the following stipulation: "No
officer, soldier, or marine OF the regu-
lar army or navy of the United States
shall be entitled to vote at any cleo
ton in this State; provided that this
section shall not be construed to in
clude members and officers of the
State militia" This provision is a
gross insult to the army and navy,
and wicked invasion OF the rights
of every retired soldier and sailor who
may now or hereafter reside in the
State of Oklahoma. There are with
in the limits of the new State many
retired officers and men of the army
who have large property interests and
have done much to prepare the Terri
tory for the dignity of Statehood. yet
it is here deliberately proposed to dis
franchise these citizens and subject
them to the injustice of taxation with
out representation. The adoption of
the above-quoted clause by the cons
titutional convention of Oklahoma has
provoked widespread Indignation

Probably the most extraordinary
band on earth is that which is station

says "TitBits." A famous composer
was recently taken into a darkened
room to hear one of his new compost
tions played by this band. The COM
poser was mystiGiod until the lights
were raised, when 200 soldiers were
revealed, each with horn or trumpet
in his hand varying in size from IL
inches to so feet Each instrument
and each performer produced only a
single note, but the playing was so
perfect that the sound was just as if
from one grand instrument played up
on by a master hand.

Much depends upon the preccn-

have about the book which falls into
his hands what his judgment about
its contents will be. Americans are
the greatest Bible readers. The ma

been taught to, as the divine word,
true and wholly good. When they
find what they do not understand or
discover conflicting statements they
pass them as mysteries, but not as in
any sense errors. Commentaries
either skip those peculiar passages
or attempt to smooth the difficulty
over. The work of the much-abused
higher critics has been to find out how
these statements got into the text
and to candidly point out errors when

Arc Lights on Trains.

Western railroads have begun to
plan the installing of arc electric
lights on passenger trains de luxe.
These are to be operated on a bat
terry of 80 cells, which will prevent
fire or explosion following n wreck.
The use of the incandescent electric
lights on trains was regarded as a
distinct advancement, but the are
lights glow with a light so much
winter and softer that they will be
adopted by progressive lines. a
test made in Chicago during the week
by one of the railroads was entirely
satisfactory. The battery is ample
for 50-hour run.
