ELEVEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Hands Cracked and Bleeding-Naii
Came Off of Fineer-cuticura Rem
edies Brought Prompt Relief.

Il had eczema on my hands for
about eleven years. The hands crack
ed open in many places and bled. One
of my fingers was so bad that the
nail came off. l had often heard of
cures by the Cuticura Remedies, but
had no confidence in them as l had
tried so many remedies, and they all
had failed to cure me. l had seen
three doctors, but got no relief Final
ly my III band said that we would
try the Cuticura Remedies, so we got
a cake of Cuticura Soap, box of
Cuticura Ointment, and two bottles
of Cuticura Resolvent PiEs. OF course
l keep Cuticura Soap all the time for
my hands, but the one cake OF Soap
and half box of Cuticura Ointment
cured them. 1t is surely a blessing
for me to have my hands well, and |

Keen Your Blood Pure.

No one can be happy, light-hearted
and healthy with body full of blood
that cannot do its duty to every part
because of its impurity; therefore, the
first and most important work in hand
is to purify the blood so that every
organ will get the full benefit of
healthy circulation. There is no rem
edy so good as that old family rem
edy, Brandreth's Pills. Each pill con-
tains one grain of the solid extract of
sarsaparilla blended with two grains
Of a combination of pure and mild
vegetable products, making 1t blood
purifier unexcelled in character. One
or two taken every night for awhile
will produce surprising results.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over a century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

JAP YOUTH ON scHooLsHIP.
VIII Get Thorough Training on an
American Boat.

The first Japanese youth to be ad.
mitted to the crew of the schoolship
st. Mary's is Katzern Artyoshi. Art.
yoshi, who is II years old, has been
in the revenue cutter service on the
Pacific for the last three years.
AS it is necessary for all foreigners
who wish to become members Of the
scholarships crew to have a guardian,
Artyoshi was forced to get one before
he could be admitted to the crew. He
succeeded in getting Capt, Osborn to
act In that capacity. Capt. Osborn
will coach the boy along and help him
over the hard points in his lessons.
Artyoshi has not made up his mind
yet whether he will remain In this
country or 60 home to Japan after he
has been graduated from the school
ship. A term on the schoolship fits
a boy for service in the merchant ma
rine. Artyoshi says he likes the
United States and may stay here, but
II Japan ever goes to war he will re-
turn home quickly as possible to take
part in it.

Peru Claims KurokI.

Gen. Kuroki, the famous Japanese
soldier, has been variously described
as of Polish, Russian and German ex-
traction. Another interesting chap
ter has been added to this genealogical
symposium by an official publication
in the Official Gazette, of Lima, Peru,
which makes the claim, and submits
a plausible statement of facts to prove
1t, that Kuroki's father was Peruvian
patriot whose name was Transito
Charroqui. 1t is also declared that
the generals father was a descendant
of the Incas, who themselves are be-
lieved to have been descendants Of an
Asiatic race, so Kuroki is an atavism
and has come into his own in the land
of his fathers.

THE PROGRESS OF THE CANA.
DIAN WEST.
Nearly 100000 Of an Increase In Cana
da's immigration In 1906.

The progress of new country can
not be better ascertained than by not
ing the increase Of railroad mileage in
its transportation system, and, judged
by this standard, the Canadian West
leads all the countries In the world
during the current year. Thirty years
ago there was not one hundred miles
OF railroad west of the Great Lakes,
and very little prospect of IA trans
continental route for many years to
come, but by the end Of 1885 the
Canadian Pacific Railway was within
measurable distance of completion,
and last year-twenty years later
over 5000 miles of railroad traversed
the provinces of Manitoba, Sas-
katchewan and Alberta.
In the past year the work Of rail
road construction has been vigorously
prosecuted, and by the end of 1906,
some 5000 miles of completed railroad
has been added, making total of
fully 1900 miles in the three great
grain producing provinces of Canada.
Such an increase in the transportation
facilities of the country Is bound to
make good times not only in the dis
tricts where the railroads are being
built, but throughout the entire west.
Allowing $4,000 mile for construc-
ton, the sum of $100,000,000 will be
put in circulation, and this in itself
should cause good times to prevail in
a land where work is plentiful, wages
are high, and the cost of living Is mod
crate.
But the building Of new railroads
through Western Canada means a
greater benefit to the country than
merely the money put in circulation
by the cost Of construction. Addition
al railway building means the opening
of new agricultural districts and an
additional area under crops; a largely
increased output of grain to foreign
markets with consequent financial re-
turns; the erection of elevators and
the growth of villages, towns and cit
les; and everything else that makes
for the progress of national life, and
the opening up of additional thousands
of free homesteads, SO extensively ad-
vertised by the Canadian government
agent, whose address appears else
where.
1t was stated on the floor Of the
Canadian Parliament recently by a
prominent representative that ten
years from now would see the bulk Of
the population of Canada residing
west of the Great Lakes, and il the
work of railway building during the
present year Is any criterion, he
prophecy made by the Canadian staIes-
man may be easily fulfilled inside Of
the time stated. During the present
year no less than 1S9, 1854 persons have
found homes in the Canadian west,
of whom 57,796 were Americans who
have seen the great possibilities Of
this new West, and have decided to
cast in their lot with it. Certainly,
our neighbor north of the 49th parallel
is making a great record, and deserves
the success that appears to be coming
its way.

Horses Still In Demand.

Happily the horse has faculty for
upsetting the gloomy predictions that
he is fated to be put out of business
by the automobile. The horse business
has kept right on developing in spite
of the fact that the automobile indus
try has been engaged in similar I'M
dertaking. The demand for horses is
still great. The supply Of some
classes of them is inadequate. The
prices are high. The automobile may
scare the horse into the ditch, but
it isn't likely to crowd him to the wall.
There will a. Ways be field for the
horse, as there will always be field
for the automobile.-Hartford Times.
