My little boy, when only an infant

itch and claw himself and cry all the
time. He could not sleep day or night,
and a light dress Is all he could wear.

treat him, but he seemed to get worse.
He suffered SO terribly that my hus-
band said he believed he would have
to die. l had almost given up hope
when a lady friend told me to try the
Cuticura Remedies. l used the Cuti-
cura Soap and applied the Cuticura
Ointment and he at once fell into q
sleep, and he slept with ease for the
first time since two months. After
three applications the sores began to
dry up, and In just two weeks from
the day | commenced to use the Cuti-

An Open Policy.


The death of Mr.. Conger, former
American minister at Peking, brought
to mind the services rendered by that
gentleman at the terrible time of the
Boxer uprising. A word of praise ana
appreciation is spoken by an English
man In his book entitled, THE Siege Of
the Picking legations" Shut up to
gether as the various foreigners were.
and living daily In the face OF death,
1t was interesting to observe the differ
ent policies adopted by the heads Of
the several legations. Says the Rev.
Roland Allen:
The American minister vas always
very ready to communicate news, and
told his people everything which went
on. In this his policy differed from
that Of the British authorities, who
often suppressed Jews Of public inter
est. and posted notices Of letters ~
ceived several days after the event,
and when its general tenor VA widely
known by rumor.
This caused great discomfort, and
kept the people In constant suspense.
No doubt there was some reason for
suspicion that news OF Affairs Of state
might leak out to Chinese cara but
there was % a for delaying Items
which were intended to b published
ct all.
Such a policy Of secrecy irritated
minds and kept up 4 condition Of anx-
Lefty. . stats Of Affairs successfully
avoided by the American minister.

Orange Judd Farmer says.
There were about 5000 exhibits OF
corn on display. Taking the entire *.
hfbit into consideration, the o r on
the tables was probably the best ever
shown Mt any exhibition. This Is most
remarkable, considering the unfavor~
able conditions which prevailed through
the growing season. It would not be
possible TO have anything like corn OF
the high quality shown were II o for
the great advancement In breeding
and cultivation OF late. Pure bred va
rteties mature earlier and resist unfa-
vorable weather conditions to a great
cr extent than the inferior corn grown
a few years ago. In the class open to
the world the showing was wonderful.
Probably a third OF the entire exhibit
was In this lot.
The Illinois exhibit, as would natu-
rally be expected. was very complete In
white ard yellow classes. Undsubt-
edly. however. the yellow varieties pre-
dominated. the majority OF them being
Of the Reid type. This Is a remarka-
bic uniform variety and OF high c
ing quality. The white samples were
Just about as numerous, and many OF
them were Of very excellent character.

Outside OF the white and yellow va

prises-a thing of trusts and monopolies.
Before you decorate your house with
flags and send off your fireworks upon
this Fourth of July, like good American
citizens, you would better make little
mental analysis of your motives, habits
and methods of life, and find out just
what you are daily contributing toward
the freedom of all Americans
Are you doing everything you can in
your social, business and political orbit
to give wider liberty, leisure and pros
perity to humanity at large?
Are you thinking how to lessen the
hours of labor for the hordes of people
who toll twelve and fourteen hours out of
the twenty-four in this glorious land of
liberty? Or are you planning ways to
get more work out Of them, and to in
crease your own fortune and leisure?
Are you helping to teach the law of
brotherhood or are you widening the
breach between the employer and EN-
ploye by your arrogance and selfshness?
You have no right to celebrate the
birth of American independence or to
talk of the beauties of freedom until
you are ready to aid by thought, word
and deed all mankind to the benefits of
liberty.-EIla Wheeler Wilcox.
