THOUGHT CHILD WOULD DIE.
Whole Body Covered with Cuban Itch
-Cutlcura Remedies Cured at Cost
of Seventy-Five Cents.

"My little boy, when only an infant
of three months, caught the Cuban
Itch. Sores broke out from his head
to the bottom of his feet. He would
itch and claw himself and cry all the
time. He could not sleep day or night,
and light dress is all he could wear.
I called one of our best doctors to
treat him, but he seemed to get worse.
He suffered so terribly that my hus-
band said he believed he would have
to die. / had almost given up hope
when lady friend told me to try the
Cuticura Remedies. I used the Cuti-
cura Soap and applied the Cuticura
Ointment and he at once fell into
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 Cuticura
Remedies my baby was entirely well.
The treatment only cost me 75c, and I
would have gladly paid 500 if 1 could
not have got it cheaper. I feel safe in
saying that the Cuticura Remedies
saved his life. He is now boy Of five
years. Mrs. Zana Miller, Union City,

are so largely under our personal con-
troll that the proper selection of food
should be, and is one of the most i'm.

and more powerful in point of nutri-
ment, than the modern Grape-Nuts,
four heaping teaspoons of which is suf
ficient for the cereal part of a meal,
and experience demonstrates that the
user is perfectly nourished from one
meal to another.
Il am convinced. that the extensive
and general use of high class foods OF
this character would increase the term
of human life, add to the sum total of
happiness and very considerably i'm
prove society in general. am FREQ to
mention the food, for l personally
know of its value"
Grape-Nuts food can be used by
babes in arms, or adults. 1t is ready
cooked, can be served instantly,
either cold with cream or with hot
water or hot milk poured over. All
sorts of buildings and fancy dishes can
be made with Grape-Nuts. The food

as to the shooting up of the town,
are substantially as reported by the

is well established even by the most

innocent Of the charge of shooting
up the town and that it was done by
Mexicans and citizens, who deliberate

discredit upon the colored troops, and
have them removed from the post.
There is doubt as to just which of
the members of the committee will
join with Senator Foraker In this
minority report, but it seems estab-
hshed that they will include Senator
Buckley of Connecticut, Senator Full

Hemenway of Indiana or Senator
