The Nine Aldermen.

That was a most unselish and patriot ie proposition of Alderman Harry Jones Wednesday night, which suggested that under the new municipal code the present Board of Aldermen should consist of only nine members instead of eighteen" said a prominent citizen.
 Alderman Jones interpretation of the law, and his insstance upon carrying it into execution, would, if successful, de- prive him of a seat in the body; there fore l say that his position is unselfish and patriotic whether 1t be right or wrong from q standpoint Of law.
 Harry Jones has been member of the Board of Aldermen for twelve years, an earnest and persistent advocate of meas ures which appeared to him to be right, and I have never known him to flicker when strenuosty was necessary in a mat ter of public interest"

FURIOUS HUMoR ON CHILD.
Itching, Bleeding Sores Covered Body
Nothing Helped Her-Cuticura
Cures Her in Five Days.

"After MY granddaughter of about
seven years had been cured of the
measles, she was attacked about a
fortnight later by furious itching and
painful eruption all over her body,
especially the upper part of it, forming
watery and bleeding sores, especially
under the arms, of considerable size.
She suffered great deal and for three
weeks we nursed her every night,
using all the remedies we could think
of. Nothing would help. We tried the
Cuticura Remedies and after twenty
four hours we noted considerable i'm
provement, and after using only one
complete set of the Cuticura Remedies,
in five consecutive days the little one,
much to our joy, had been entirely

NOTHING HID FROM KAISER.
How German Emperor Keeps In Touch
with Worlds Affairs.

The German emperors interest in
everything that goes on in The world
is well known, but few are aware of
the trouble he takes to keep in touch
with current affairs. According to
Munich newspaper, the kaiser reads
at least three papers every day, chang
ing the list several times a week in
order to become fully acquainted with
the ideas Of all political parties in the
state. But this by no means exhausts
his appetite for information. Every
day the ministry of foreign affairs, as
well as that of the interior, has to pro-
vide newspaper cuttings, properly
named and dated, and pasted on slips
ready for the emperor's perusal.
These he carefully reads, making mar
ginal notes as he goes along, and they
are then scrupulously classified and
put aside ready for immediate refer
ence. Often, too, the emperor asks
for cuttings relating to the particular
technical subjects in which for the
time he is specially interested.
