The Roncy'5 Boys proved a
quartet of rare Sweetness and more
than pleased boill young and old
in their concerts III this city Fri
day. The boys ranging in age from
twelve to fonrt' ell years proved
rare musical artists and if the say

is true, then the audience atslast
nights entertainment had n goodly
share of that spice.
Henry b. Rone.y. Of Chicago, is
tire originator and trainer of the
quartet. In an interesting talk he
explained to the audience how he
trains his boys anl made the pass

Cures Her in Five DAYS.

After my granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacked about a.
fortnight later by furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body.

watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered a great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night
using all the remedies we could thinl,

Cuticura Remedies and after TWENTY
TOUR hours we noted considerable i'm.

HORSE BREEDING PROFITABLE.
Why High Prices Hold Firm Through
out the Country.

Every day indications are visible
horses as a market product. During
the Illinois state fair, at Springfield,
this past fall, pair of driving horses,
bays. without any action. but looking
like fair roadsters able to pull some
weight, changed hands for $500, and
the pair looked to be sold for about
800 more than they were worth, to
discriminating judges, yet one of the
most astute dealers in the trade got
them.
For a pair of draft mares that were
shown in the farm team class, 1925
was offered by the same dealer and re.
fused promptly This same dealer
seemed to think that prices are going
steadily upward, for some time at least.
He stated that he did not know where
the end will come, but that the con-
sumption of horses Is so great that the
supply, though increased will hardly
go around He also stated that be-
cause wagon horses have been high
all summer, many farmers have sold
themselves short on team power and
will have to buy in the spring. He
said that grain is and has been high,
hay is scarce and high, and that even
If farmer had to pay $50 or $40 more
in The spring for horse than he re-
ceives now, he will be making money
by the transaction. He says that next
spring there will be such a demand for
horses of from 1900 to l,400 pounds
weight that prices will soar into the
clouds. He predicts that wagon horses
will then sell on a parity with drafters.
There is not lack of similar evidence,
says the Horse World, in all parts Of
the country, to show that horse breed
ing will prove extremely profitable to
such farmers as have any taste in that
direction.

Nlc4rcAps IN VOGUE AGAIN.
Women Returning to the Fashion OF
Their Grandmothers.

Fashionable women have revived
the use of the nightcap. 1t was dis
carded at least half century ago, ex-
cept by grandmothers and elderly
spinsters, but now, according to the
Diapers Record 1t has again become
an indispensable part OF woman's out
at and is included in all trouseaux.
The revival is partly ascribed to the
doctors. Their incessant advocacy OF
we'll ventilated bedrooms has, in the
absence of over door transoms In
English houses, resulted in bedroom
windows being opened at night, and
women who are not robust found the
wintry draughts too trying. Another
and more distressing cause Is alleged
by hairdressers. These say that elab-
prate coiffures are being desired.
These are helped by stylish transfer
nations, which are detached at night.
To facilitate this arrangement 1t Is
said that many ladies have their hair
cropped rendering a nightcap neces-
sary. Their grandmothers practised
the same folly. Moreover, the new
manner of dressing the hair, which In
PRODUCES an exceptionally careful pro-
cess of undulation and is submitted to
by women three times week, calls
for the use of the protecting nightcap
to preserve the freshness of the Golf

OLD CANNON CAN'T BE BROKEN.
Armament Of Old Craft Was Made to
Last.

A good story is being told at the
Mare Island navy yard concerning a
San Francisco contractor who bought
all the old obsolete cannon which were
sold at the local yard some time ago.
The cannon were all of the smooth
bore kind, and in order that they
might be easily handled for shipment
to the city all sorts of schemes were
tried to endeavor to break them with
dynamite and blasting powder, but
they were unsuccessful.
An electric drill machine was even
set up at the yards and the cannon
were drilled full of holes in order to
weaken them for breaking open with
wedges, but this was also unsuccess-
full. The cannon were then taken
away and the last heard of them they
were corralled in the hills near Point
Richmond, where an effort was being
made to break them open with dyna.
mite again.
The cannon which proved to be so
strong were among the armament of
the war craft which sailed the seas
in 1912.
