CARTER co. VICTORIOUS.
q. s. Court Says 1t Is Exclusively
Entitled to Red Package for Pills.

u. s. Court Says II Is Exclusively
Entitled to Red Package for Pills.
The Carter Medicine Co, OF New
York, states that its exclusive right as
owner of Little Liver Pills to the red
package has just been again confirmed
by two important DEGREES of the United
States Circuit Court sitting at Trenton,
n. J. 1t says: The suit Of the Carter
Medicine Co., in that court, for an in
junction restraining n Camden (N. j.
pill manufacturer from using red
colored package for his preparation is
decided In favor Of the Carter Co. A
similar result occurs in suit to enjoln
retail druggist from selling pills in
red packages. Both actions were con-
tested.
THE cosrt decides that the Carter
Medicine Co. has for many years had
the sole and exclusive right to the use
Of red-colored wrappers and labels
upon small round packages of liver
pills, and says that the right was ac-
quired by the adoption of that color
more than thirty years akO, and by its
continuous use ever since. The de-
fendant in each case is permanently en-
Joined from manufacturing or putting
up any liver pills IN such red colored
packages, and also from selling any
pills n red packages, except the genu-
inc Carter's. ,
''The decrees direct the defendants,
among other things, to deliver up to-
the Carter Co., for destruction, all in
fringing wrappers. packages. bottles,
etc. The defendants are required to-
account to the complainant, and to pay
the damages found due, as well as tol
the costs Of the action"
While the Carter Medicine Com
pany's sol1 right to the red package
has been upheld by many previous adj
publications, these decisions are consld-
cred of especial Importance. in view OF
the high character and standing Of the
canrt which pronounced them. !

CHICAGO.

Midsummer conditions are now entered
, into, but trade in the aggregate dis
closes less decline in activity than usual.
The volume Of dlstributive trade remains
! exceptionally wide and the leading indus
! tries show no disposition to curtail pro
duction, the full employment of machin-
cry and available workers being mpera.
tive 70 sustain prompt deliveries. Some
plants are yet considerably behind on old
contracts and the pressure here involves
much extra effort and overtime to in.
crease outputs.
Heavy hardware, machinery, furniture
and footwear demands average favOrably
with those OF a year ago, and the prices
obtained afford a fair margin Of profit. a
slight falling of in building permits does
not interfere with current operations in
construction.
Leading retail trade has advanced to
soassIable proportions, and the clearance
sales make substantial inroads upon
stocks of lightweight apparel. boots and
shoes and headwear. Conservatism in
selections of merchandise is confined TO a
! few points where harvesting is poor, but
the outlook for business in fall and win
ter goods appears TO be improving.
Grain markets disclose fupther cOntrac-
tion in prices and buying of the leading
breddstuffs, due mainly to the government
crop report indicating probabilities OF
adequate results under normal weather
conditions.

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.

Covered with Yellow Sores-Greyv

ticura Drove Sores Away.
'Our little girl, one year and a half
old, was taken with eczema or that was
what the doctor called it. We took her
to three doctors, but this time she was
nothing but a yellow, greenish sore.
One morning we discovered little yell
low pimple on one of her eyes. Doctor
No. 3 said that we had better take her
to some eye specialist, since it was an
ulcer. SO we went to Oswego to Doctor
No. 4, and he said the eyesight was
gone. We were nearly discouraged, but
] thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, so purchased n set OF Cuti-
cura Remedies, which cost me 81, and
in three days of daughter, who had
been sick about eight months, showed
great Improvement, and in one week all
sores had disappeared. OF course it
could not restore the eyesight, but If
we had used Cuticurs in time am con-
fident that it would have saved the eve.

Commendable Example.

The popular after dinner speaker rose
to respond to q toast.
Gentlemen" he said, "the unexpect-
edly 1attering manper in which your
toastmaster has introduced me this even
ing reminds me of a story which strikes
me as being appropriate to the occasion.
BY the way, how many of you have heard
the story of the Pennsylvania farmer and
the young wolf Ire bought for . coon
dog? Will those who are familiar with
it from having listened to it hale dozen
times or more please raise their hands ?"
An overwhelming majority Of his"audi~
tors raised their hands.
"Thanks, gentlemen" he said. II shall
not infist it upon you"
With their rapturous applause still
ringing In his ears he sat down.
He had made the hit of the evening.

attracts the most energetic soldiers In
to private life Never before have re-
cruiting officers found their work SO
hard and unproftable. The demands
upon Hkely young adventurous men for
the rapidly growing navy has also de-
veloped a new competitor for the re-
cruiting sergeant
A speca reason for. the refusal Of
the coast artillery ND to re-enlist IS
that they Gte obliged to do largo
asnosnt Of mechanical work In caring
for the complicated fortitications dress
ed only In working ovpralls or jumpers
and getting few opportunities to wear
their soldiers uniforms
AS to - other branches f the GER
vice, the men are being called on to do
too much hard work which they regard
as unnecessary Particularly do they
object TO the long. hard, periodical prac-
tce marches carrying the full heavy
field kit. Many desertlOns are trace
able to this dissatisfaction. The staff
Is trying to find corrective measures,
but some measures will require les!sla-
ton to make them effective.

der Of the President, 40 the same au-
rhority can dispense with them or re-
duce the requirements. But it Is GER
tain that Congress must provide for a
general and large increase of the pay
of the soldier II the regular army Is
to be maintained at its authorized
strength. Officers may be had. even
though Gen. Funston has reported that
captains pay is less than the wage
Of plumber or house mechanic In Cal
ffornia, but the War Department CON
tends that the private soldier can not
longer be kept In the ranks for $13 Il
month while wages In civil life remain
at their present standard.

Leon Maille, naval reservist, fired
the bullets. Both missed the Presi.
