And Fingers Were All Drawn up With
Eczema Cure Of Nearly Twenty
Years Ago by the Cuticura

PERMANENT CURE BY
CUTICURA REMEDIES

any mother was badly afflicted by a
species of eczema or salt rheIm in her

treated by her family physician for

Then she thought she would try the

found relief. Her hands and fingers
we're all drawn up and cracked and
bleeding. They very soon commenced
to heal up and in less than three months
were about we'll. She used the Soap,
don't know how many boxes of the
Ointment and four bottles of the
Resolvent. For two years she was
entirely free from the disease, when
it came on again; but as she used the
Remedies Immediately, was soon cured,
end has had no more trouble with her
hands for nearly twenty years.
"For years she has always had the
Ointment in the house and used It
occasionally in the winter time. she
has recommended it to many people
and always speaks we'll Of it and would
use it again If needed and che thinks
no Soap is equal to the Cuticura Soap.

Bradstreet's reports regarding State af-
fairs show prosperous conditions In al
lines OF industry during the year Of 1905
The holiday trade this year was very
large. weather conditions were such as tc
materially assist in sale of stocks. The
year closed has shown the largest sales
of manufactured stock and larger gen
eral business than has been known in the
State for years. The demand for more
skilled labor has constantly been heard
during the year and because Of lack OF
labor manufacturers have been handi-
capped in doing all they wanted to bu,

A MURDER MYSTERY
One more Victim Added to Long
List of Crimes by Organized
Band of Thugs.

Oklahoma City Aug. with a bull
let hole In the face, another over the
heart and two in the left arm, the
ears severed from the head, the body
OF an unidentified iaboring man was
found yesterday noon three miles east
OF the city by G. f. Ap2legate and
K. NJ MaGee, who were starting for
an afternoons fishing in West End
lake, The man appears to have been
less than 25 years old, Of medium
height ami weight, with every indica-
tion that ne was laboring man.
Not sign Of Identification was
found upon him or his clothing.
The authorities hold to the theory
that the man is a victim of an organ
lied gang Of murderers. They assert
the present crime was committed by
the same gang that killed the man
found in boxcar at Chickasha only
last week. only in that case both ears
were cut from the head of the victim.
D. A. Schriver, a farmer living near
where the body was found, says that
he heard three or four shots last
night about midnight.
One Of the strange features Of the
case is the finding of human ear at
Grand avenue and Hudson street this
morning by detective. 1t is believed
that the ear belongs to the body Of the
murdered man. The authorities are
making rigid investigation Of the
affair but so far have been completely
bafiled in finding clue to the MUIR
derers.
