FORTUNE FOR FAIR PRINCESS.
Twenty Million Dollars is Nest Egg
She Inherited.

Americans as well as Europeans
who know her express delight at the
good fortune of Princess Henry of
, Pless In inheriting, with her husband,
$40 100000, comfortable addition to
their modest fortune. The money is
derived by the popular couple from
the estate Of the duke Of Pless. whom
nobody on this side of the water knew
well, and who had few friends even
in England. Princess Henry, on the
other hand. gained the hearts of many
as Daisy West. 1t was by that name
she was known to most Of her ac-
quaintances before her marriage.
though in strict formality she was
Miss Cornwallis-West. She was be-
throthed to Prince Henry at the end
of her first season in society. The
duke OF Pless lived q life OF almost
feudal formality at Furstenstein. their
splendid Renaissance castle in the
borders of Bavaria. 1t must have re-
quired, indeed. power of adaptability
in an English girl to take up the posi-
tion of sort of queen among the
peasantry there, driving about mag.
nificently In carriage drawn by Arab
grays, ridden by postillions In claret-
colored coats and white beaver hats.
Still, Princess Henry has made the
life at Furstenstein quite pleasantly
informal. and most Of the time is
spent. when she entertains English or
German friends there, in riding or
driving in the beautiful woods or val
leys near. Prince and Princess Henry
Of Pless spend good deal Of the year
in London. and they are oftener over
in England for the Cowes week. Their
little son was baptized in London two
years ago. 1t may be remembered.
The queen stood sponsor. and the
ceremony was splendid affair.

FIFTEEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Terrible Itching Prevented Sleep
Hands, Arms and Legs Affected
-Cuticura Cured In 6 Days.

II had eczema nearly fifteen years.
The affected parts were my hands,
arms and legs. They were the worst
In the winter time. and were always
itchy. and could not keep from
scratching them. had to keep both
hands bandaged all the time. and at
night 1 would have to scratch through
the bandages as the itching was SO
severe. and at times would have to
tear everything OF my hands to scratch
the skin. could not rest or sleep. l
had several physicians treat me but
they could not give me permanent
cure nor even could they stop the itch
ing. After using the Cuticura Soap.
one box of Cuticura Ointment and two
bottles of Cuticura Resolvent for about
six days the itching had ceased. and
now the sores have disappeared. and
never felt better in my life than do
now. Edward Worell Band Both U. s.

Eiremen's Ball.

The ball, given by the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Firemen, in the opera house
last Friday evening was a grand success.
The hall was very t~astefully decorated,
and those not familiar with the duties of
a fremen were given an insight by the
various assortment of tools neatly ar
ranged in the decorations. A very good
representation of an engine, with its
glazing head light, greeted the dancers
from the stage as they entered the hall,
and a head light in the gallery repre-
scented a train approaching from the dis
lance. The decorations were certainly a
feature.
The ball opened with the grand march,
led by Mayor and Mrs. Manning. Over
one hundred couples followed the lead
ers through the march and it was with
considerable difficulty that the changes
were made, because of the crowded con
dition of the hall. The same difficulty
was experienced throughout the entire
program, but everyone found plenty OF
! room for one of the best times of the
season. Many visitors from the sur,
rounding towns were present and as.
sisted in making the ball a success.
The music for the occasion was fur.
nished by the Davis orchestra and was
up to the usual standard.
Credit is due to the committee who
had the affair in charge, and many are
a~nxiously awaiting the event of Apri
first, when the railroad boys will AGAR
be entertainers at the ball given by tho
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers.
