Cure by C%uticura.

my baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face and
feet. Her feet seemed to irritatc her
most, especially nights. They would
cause her to be broken in her rest, and
sometimes she would cry until she was
tired out. | had heard of SO many
cures by the Cuticura Remedies that
/ thought | would give them a trial.
The improvement was noticeable in a
few hours, and before | had used one
box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet
were well and have never troubled her
since. I also used it to ENJOY what
is known as cradle cap from her
head, and it worked like a charm, as it
cleansed and healed the scalp at the
same time. Mrs. Hattie Currier,

LIFT II TO The OLD HENS.

An Indiana man tells OF the efforts
Of an author belonging to the iIoosier
school of historical novelists to put
in his leisure time as a hen farm
or" in that state. the literary per
sons venture afforded his agricultural
noighbOrs no end of amusement.
During the first year the amateur
farmer discovered that all his little
chickens, which were confined in
coops, were lansuishing at the point
of death. The novelist went yer his
hen literature" to locate the cause of
the trouble, but to no avail.
Finally he called upon an old chap
named Rawlins, to whom he put the
question:
What do you suppose Is the mat.
ter with these chickens?"
well, | dunno" said Rawlins,
what do you feed 'em?"
Feed them!' exclaimed the novel

anything"

TALKED WITH GREAT EMPEROR.
Belgian Woman Remembers Converse.
ton with Napoleon.

There Is still living in the village OF
Ligny, Belgium, a woman who spoke
with the great Napoleon on the day of
the battlc-June 16, 1S15-at that
place.
Her name Is Nine. Anno-Josephc
Rubay, says tho London Daily Graphic,
n she will reach her one hundred
and second birthday on July 80. Her
memory Is still perfectly clear as to
the incident. Napoleon had estab-
lished his quarters close to the little
farm where she and her mother we're
alone. Her parents had buried their
little stock of money and %valuables
in the ground, and in the morning the
emperor came out and took up his po-
sition close to the spot. Fearing that
he might discover the hiding place,
the farmers wife, to distract his at.
t~ention, took her head in both hands
and pretended to be suffering from
toothncle.
This attracted the emperor's atten-
ton, and coming over to the woman,
he told her not to be afraid, but added
that as the battle was about to be
fought, h should betake herself and
her little girl to a place of safety. He
then turned to the little Anne-Jo.
sephe, and, patting her on her cheeks,
told her to be "a good little girl and
take care of her mother"
Encouraged by his kindness, the
farmers wife told the emperor that
her brother had served in one of his
dragon regiments, but had not been
heard of for several years. On ascer-
tanning the name OF the regiment Ma
poleon replied that it was one OF
those that had suffered most during
the retreat from Russia, but he would
have inquiries made. He then told
them TO hurry off into the forest of
Sombreffe until the fighting was over.
Nine. Rubay has a perfect recollection
OF the emperor's appearance, and de-
scribes him as "a little man with q
big nose"
h also remembers the scene OF
destruction and slaughter presented
by the village when they returned the
next day. She describes the French
soldiers as fine fellows" but her rec.
objection of the Prussians Is not so ia.

Paid Debt After Nyny Years.

A Moorestown, n. j., butcher cast
his bread, or, rather. his steak, on the
waters, and it has returned 10 him
after seven years.
A ~fashionably dressed man came
into the shop the other day, threw
down a banknote on the counter and
said:
please take out what I owe YOU
for the steak l bought seven years
ago."
The man was unknown to the butch
er, but on inquiry it developed that he
was formerly a tramp who had picked
berries in the neighborhood seven
years ago, and after buying the meat
left the town.
Two years later the man settled
down in life, and is now a stock
broker. He gave his name and Office
address and said he had often worried
about that steak.
