CHILDREN TORTURED

Girl Had Running Sores from Ecxes

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by very prominent ply
sician for an obstinate case OF &C.
zema, resorted to the Cuticura REM
edies, and was so well pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief afford
ed that we discarded the physicians
prescription and relied entirely on the
Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Pills. When we commenced.
with the Cuticura Remedies her feet:
and limbs were covered with running
sores. In about six weeks we had her
completely well, and there has been no.
recurrence of the trouble.
I'm July of this year a little boy
in our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were
a mass Of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cut;cura
Soap, and amounting them With the
Cuticura Ointment, and then gave him
the Cuticura Resolvent. In about three
weeks his hands and arms healed up.
o we have lots Of cause for feeling
grateful for the Cuticura Remedies We
find that the Cuticura Remedies are a
valuable household standby, living as
we do twelve miles from doctor. Mrs.

Washington Judge Holds that Juriel
Cannot Consider Ii.

Cannot Consider Ii.
Judge William A. Huneke, in the
superior court Of Spokane county
Wash. has ruled that the "unwritten
law" cannot receive consideration by
juries.
There is no 'unwritten law in the
state of Washington" he said in his
instructions to the twelve jurors hear
ing the case of the state again A. J.
Hosticka, chargde with a statuto~
crime, adding: You are to be guided
solely by the law made by the legisla-
ture of this state"
This declaration OF the futility of
the 'unwritten law" as subterfuge
for lawyers was called forth by the
plea of Attorney Losey, representing
Hosticka, that there is a course Of
life regulated by the law higher than
that prescribed by legislatures. The
jury he said, should consider these
higher statutes in passing opinion Up
on the merits of the case.
After celebrating for less than an
hour tae jury brought in verdict Of
guilty. The punishment for the crime,
optional with the judge, varies from
one year to a lifetime.
