AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.
Covered with Yellow sores-crew
Worse-Parents Discouraoed-cu-
tlcura Drove Sores Away.

"Our little girl, one year and 3
half old, was taken with eczema or
that was what the doctor called it.
We called in the family doctor, and
he gave some tablets and said she
would be all right in few days.
The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. 2. He said she
was teething, as soon as the teeth
were through she would be all right
But she still grew worse. Doctor
No. 3 said it was eczema By this
time she was nothing but yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try It about
a week. One morning we discovered
q little yellow pimple on one OF
her eyes. OF course we 'phoned for
doctor No. 3. He came over and
looked her over, and said that he
could not do anything more for
her, that we had better take her
to some eye specialist, since 1t was
an ulcer So we went to Oswego to
doctor No. 4, and he said the eye
sight was gone, but that he could
help it. We thought we would try
doctor No. s. Well, that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. A. We were nearly dis.
couraged. l saw one Of the Cuti-
cura advertisements in the paper and
thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, SO / went and purchased
set Of Cuticura Remedies, which
cost me 81, and In three days our
daughter, who had been sick about
eight months, showed great improve
ment, and in one week all sores had
disappeared. OF course it could not
restore the eyesight, but II we had
used Cuticura in time am confident
that it would have saved the eye. We
think there is no remedy SO good for
any skin trouble or impurity Of the
blood as Cuticura. Mr.. and Mrs Frank

oil Of the White Pine Tree Used sue
oessfulIy BY Physicians IN Treat
Ing consumptivs Patients.

The Oil Of the Pine Tree Is sup
posed to be the balm Of Scripture. It
contains great medicinal properties
and was regarded with the utmost
esteem by the ancients, and to the
present day is peculiarly priced by
the people Of the East.
A noted authority on diseases OF the
throat and lungs, who established a
camp for consumptives in the Pine
Woods Of Maine, says that his entire
treatment consisted Of fresh air,
nourishing food and the Pure Virgin
Oil of the White Pine Trees, mixed
with Whisky and Glycerine in the fol-
lowing proportions:
Virgin Oil Of Pine (Pure) Koz.
Glycerlne ..................
Good Whisky ..............8
Used in teaspoonful doses every four
hours.
It is claimed the above mixture will
heal and strengthen the lungs, break
up cold in twenty-four hours, and
cure any cough that is curable.
The ingredients can be secured
from any good prescription druggist
at small cost, aud can be easily mixed
In your own home.
Virgin Oil Of Pine (Pure) is put up
only in half-ounce vials for dispensing
Each vial is securely sealed In a
round wooden case with engraved
wrapper with the name-V Virgin OIL
Of Pine (Pure). prepared only by
Leach Chemical Co., Cincinnati. o.
plainly printed thereon. There are
many raSk limitations OF Virgin Oil
of Pine (Pure). which are put out
under various names, such as Con-
centrated Oil Of Pine, Pine Bal
sam. ETC. Never accept these as a
substitute for the Pure Virgin Oil Of
Pine, as they will invariably produce
nausea and never effect the desired
result.

sAID WOMEN MAKKIEp HIM.
Remarkable Excuse Put Forward by
French BlgamIst.

AT Versailles. France, recently d
baker was tried osa charge OF polyg-
amy, having married I've women,
who are living and undivorced. The
pentagamist's defense was that he
had not married the women; they had
married him. When they proposed
he had not the courage to say no.
Neither money nor love, he said, had
prompted his nuptials: he was the
victim Of the stronger Wills Of his
successive spouses. III the five wives
three appeared as witnesses, but did
not prosecute, saying that their com
mon husband was a topper OF whom
they were glad to get rid. He was
acquitted-on what ground does not
appear AS all the years In which
the multiplex husband took wives
were leap years except 1881, In which
It would seem that In four out OF
the five cases the women had the
right to propose. But the man had
the right, even in the leap years, to
decline, and it was up to him at least
to explain to his fair suitors that he
was engaged TO establish the prln-
ciple that man is not responsible
Tor the number Of his wives unless
he himself does the courting, would
be plainly against public policy. II
'Barkis is willin'." that at once puts
all the responsibility on him, no
matter who managed the prelimi.

Many stories have been told Of
mean men, such as he who used a
vart for a collar-button and he whose
birthday gift to his son consisted ln
washing the windows SO that the
lad might watch the cars go by.
This man, however, seems to have
won the palm:
There was an extremely mean man

There was absolutely no chance for
the casual loafer to get newspapers,

not even free seats in the office.
One day, relates the Success Maya

loafer gazing at the old clock that
hung on the wall. The next day a
sign was placed over the clock. It
read: "This clock is for the use Of

z IERCELY the battle ragged and
gradually the army of Israel was
driving the great hosts of the enemy
backward All day long the struggle
had continued and now the sun was
nearing the western horizon and two
hours more would see it disappearing
below the mountains crest. Defeat
now seemed certain to Adonfzedec
king of Jerusalem and to the other
four kings who had federated them
selves with him in the assault upon
the stronghold Of Gibeon. and the
only CLEAN Of hope for their shatter-
ed armies as they gradually fell back

what though the Gibeonites had es-

help of Israel, they would recoup their
shattered armies and some day later
came upon them unawares and punish
them for the treaty of peace which
they had made with Israel.
1t had come almost as a complete
surprise to find that the army Of
Israel had come up to the help Of the
people Of Gibeon, and they had learn
ed during the day while the battle was
on that Joshua by forced march dur
ing the darkness OF the night before
had hastened from Gilgal to Gibeon
and had his divisions drawn up In bat

five kings had appeared. Il Is little
wonder therefore that at the very be-
ginning they should have been dis

half over it became evident that
Joshua would win the victory, and, as
wa have said, Adoni-zadee and the
four kings with him. as they took
council together, watched the de-

that soon darkness would give them
the opportunity Of making good their

the chance to strike here and there

Filled thus with the purpose 10 save

sERMoNETTE.

Falthfulness to a Promise
There is no more striking illus
tration in the Bible, we think,
Of the faithful fulfillment Of a
pledge given than this incident
Of Joshua going up TO the aid Of
Gibeon. Here was a people
douby despised In the eyes Of
Joshua and the people of Israel,
first, because they were heath
en- people, and second, because
they had tricked Israel into a
dlstasteful alliance. And yet,
when the cry for help came
Joshua and the people with him
hesitated not but made haste to
60 up TO the defense OF the Glib
eonites. Under a strict inter-
probation Of the agreement
made, Joshua was under no OBJ
legations to fight Glheon's bat
ties, and what more natural
feeling fcr Joshua and the peo-
pie Of Israel, who but a short
time before had wanted to de-
stroy the Glbeonites notwith-
standing the oath Of Joshua and
the princes of Israel, than for
them to welcome the peril which
threatened cibeon as an easy
and fortunate escape from
most dlstastefuI alliance. But
no. The spirit Of the agreement
was that Gibeon should dwell
with them in the land; she had
identified herself with Israel,
and had acknowledged the SUI
premacy Of the true God; there
fore Israel would fight for her.
Because Of the promise Joshua
and his men would face peril
and hardship. cibeon's plea for
help should not 90 unheeded.
What a noble devotion to lofty
ideals.
To-day there is not the same
fine conceptions, the same faith
fitness In the fulfiIlment Of 4
promise. The modern Joshua
looks for technicalities, the legal
loophole which will let him slip
free from the fuifillment Of an
obligation. He keeps the agree
ment that he cannot escape, but
as for doing more, not he. If
the Gibeon Who is in trouble
can show undlsputed claim upon
his time and resources, then he
will go up to his help, but If
there Is convenient escape from
the promise given, then he will
let Gibeon shift for himself.
But Joshua Of old had the d.
vine conception of the impor-
tance and invlolability of an
oath, and he did all and more
than that oath demanded. And
God honored such spirit of self
sacrificing devotion by giving
Joshua power over the forces of
nature and Iengthening the day
20 that the task undertaken
might be fully done.
