FEARFUL BURNING SORES.
Boy in Misery II Years-Eczema In
Rough Scales, Itching and In
fiamed--Cured by Cuticura.

"Cuticura has put a stop to twelve
years of misery passed with my son.
AS an infant l noticed on his body a
red spot and treated same with differ
ent remedies for about five years, but
when the spot began to get larger /
put him under the care of doctors.
Under their treatment the disease
spread to four different parts of his
BODY. During the day it would get
rough and form like scales. At night
it would be cracked, infiamed and bad
ly swollen, with terrible burning and
itching. One doctor told me that my
sons eczema was incurable, and gave
it up. decided TO give Cuticura trial.
When had used the first box of Cuti-
cura Ointment there was a great i'm
proyement, and by the time had used
the second set OF Cuticura Remedies
my child was cured. He is now twelve
years old, and his skin is as fine and
smooth as silk. Michael Steinman, z

SPAIN FAR BEHIND NATIONS.
Illiteracy Prevails There to a Most
Amazing Extent.

OF the 100000 people inhabiting
Spain, only about 80 per cent. can
read and write; another two and one
half per cent. of the population can
read without being able to write, but
the remaining 62h per cent are alb
solute illiteratcs. In the south of
Spain 1t is impossible to get serv-
ant who can read and write, and
many of the postmen are unable to
tell to whom the letters they carry
are addressed They bring a bun
die Of letters to a house and the
owner looks through them and takes
those which are (or which he thinks
are) addressed to him. The Spanish
postmen are not paid by the state;
the recipient of the letters have to
remunerate them according to the
amount of their correspondence, and
each letter costs the addressee al
least one cent. 1t is joke among
the easy-going Spaniards that he who
treats the postmen best receives the
most letters-whether they are in
tended for him OF not.

Repellinu Vendors.

Mrs. R gives little concern TO
the shortage of domestic help She
takes care of her own home and does
it well. AS a rule, she does not re-
ceive callers except in the late after
noon or evening. During her work
she frequently is annoyed by venders
who call her to the door, seeking to
sell their wares. Beggars, peddlers
and their like, having caused her
many unnecessary steps, are now Ia
booed. When she sees them through
the glass in the door, she merely
shakes her head and goes away, leav,
ing them to grumble or swear accord
ing to their inclination.
Not very many mornings ago, a
snarp ring at the door came just as
she was making Dutch cheese. She
had large gingham apron over her
dress and her sleeves we're rolled well
to her elbows. Her hands were in the
cheese and, besides, she didn't want
to buy any shoestrings, anyhow!
Through the glass she could see a
tall man standing at the door. He
appeared like book agent or gold
bond salesman and Mrs. R didn't
propose to listen to his story or be
bothered by his entreaties.
Going into the hall where he could
see her, she merely shook her head
The man bowed, smiled and insisted
No, l don't want anything" shout
ed Mrs R.
Still the man stood there and mo-
toned

to finish her cheese.
That night when her husband came
home, he took the new minister's caro-
from the door.
Now Mrs. R goes to another
church in the neighborhooa.

ALWAYS in the Wav.

Recently country doctor in the
north of Ireland, bachelor, who was
locally noted for his brusqueness and
irascibility, was driving along a nor
row lane, or "boreen," when his pas
sage was effectually barred by an old
woman, who was returning from the
bog leading an ass whose panniers
were filled with peats. The woman
led the ass to the side of the lane as
quickly as she could, but not quickly
enough to please the short-tempered
doctor. "Faugh!" he exclaimed, with
a snort of disgust. Women and asses
are always in the way" I'm glad We
have the manners to put yourself
last" said the old woman, calmly.
The doctor drove on without another
word

A Little Debt for Husband.

A four-year-old tot invited three
older playmates into an ice cream sa-
loon, where she magnificently ordered
four plates of cream. When the de-
lectable food had been eaten she calm
ly proceeded to walk out of the place
without paying for it. The proprietor
stopped her. Looking up into his
face in the most innocent manner in
the world, she lisped:
Il amt got any money, sir. I'll pay
you when I'm married"
