SAID WOMEN MARRIED HIM.
Remarkable Excuse Put Forward by
French Rieamist.

At Versailles. France, recently a
baker was tried on a charge of polyg.
amy, having married five women
who are living and undivorced. The
pentagamiSt's defense was that he
had not married the women; they had
married him. When they proposed
he had not the courage to say no.
Neither money nor love, he said, had
prompted his nuptials; he was the
victim of the stronger wills of his
successive spouses. OF the five wives
three appeared as witnesses, but did
not prosecute. saying that their COM
mon husband was a topper of whom
they were glad to get rid. He was
acquitted--on what ground does not
appear. AS all the years in which
the multplex husband took wives
were leap years except 1881, in which
it would seem that in four out OF
the five cases the women had the
right to propose. But the man had
the right, even in the leap years. to
decline, and it was up to him at least
to explain to mis- fair suitors that he
was engaged. To establish the prin-
ciple that a man is not responsible
for the number of his wives unless
he himself does the counting, would
be plainly against public policy. If
"Barkis is willin'," that at once puts
all the responsibility on him, no
matter who managed the prelimi-
naries.

AWFUL EFFECT OF ECZEMA.
Covered with Yellow Sores-Grew
Worse-Parents Oiscouraged-Cu-
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 called in the family doctor. and
he gave some tablets and said she
would be all right in a few days.
The eczema grew worse and we
called in doctor No. 2. He said she
was teething, as soon as the teeth
were through she would be all right.
But she still grew worse. Doctor
No. 3 said it was eczema. BY this
time she was nothing but a yellow,
greenish sore. Well, he said he could
help her, so we let him try it about
a week. One morning we discovered
a little yellow pimplo on ono of
her eyes. or course we 'phoned for
doctor No. g. lie came over and
looked her over, and said that he
could not do anything more for
her, 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 eye
sight was gone. but that he could
help it. We thought we would try
doctor No. 8. Well, that proved the
same, only he charged $40 more than
doctor No. T. We were nearly dis
couraged. saw one of the Cuti-
cura advertisements in the paper and
thought we would try the Cuticura
Treatment, so l went and purchased
a set of Cuticura Remedies, which
cost mo 81, and in three days our
daughter, who had been sick about
eight months. showed great improve
ment, and in one week all sores had
disappeared. OF course it could not
restore the eyesight, but If we had
used Cuticura in Hmo 7 am confident
that it would have saved the eye. We
think there is no remedy so good for
any skin trouble or impurity of the
blood as Cuticura Mr.. and Mrs. Frank

lance. You haven't spinning

Two hours later George returned
from the fray with his armor bat

ThorouahIy Reliable.


II ever there was reliable and safe
remedy it is that old and famous por-
Gus plaster-Allcock'ss 1t has been in

to-day as ever, and we doubt if there
is a civilized community on the face
of the globe where this wonderful pain
reliever cannot be found. In the selec-
ton of the ingredients and in their
manufacture the greatest care is taken
to keep each plaster up to the highest
staudarL ot excellence, and so pure
and simple are the ingredients that
even a child can use them.
Allcock's are the original and gen.
uine porous plasters and are sold by
Druggists all over the world.

Judges on Their Dignity.

The ceremony of the United States
supreme court judges marching from
their robing room across the corridor
to take their seats on the bench,
which occurs at high noon every week
day while the court is holding session,

average visitor at the capitol Every
day there is small crowd waiting to
see the stately procession. The other
day Justice Moody, as the youngest
member Of the august body, brought
up the rear. A flicker of a smile a y
peared on his face as he noted the
black-robed figures ahead of him. but
it passed away instantly and he be-
came as solemn and grave as the
others.

Life Without Mind.

The possibility of life without mind,
while not subject to positive proof. is
a theory that has gained considerable
strength recently through it's advocacy
by DR.. L. Laloy, librarian of the
Academy of Sciences, Paris. He be-
lieves that many of the smaller living
organisms, such as insects, are mere
moving machines, having no more in.
telligence than may be ascribed to
plants. He refers to the we'll known
fact that insects are attracted by light,
often to their own destruction, and as
cribes it to the same cause that in.
clines the plant to grow toward the
light.

there were softly shaded fairy lamps,

porch chairs and settees in place Of
the ordinary furniture.
Each man was given fishing rod

a basket, the. handle adorned with a

The hostess provided napkins, drink

and delicious ice cream which was
packed in individual paper cartons.

guest took turn at the fish pond"
and caught real fish which proved
to be candy box filled. These fish
come, in all sizes and are just the
thing for souvenirs at an affair of
