CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by cuticura.

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent ply
sician for an obstinate case of &C.
zema, l resorted to the Cuticura Rem
edies, and was so well pleased with
the almost instantaneous relief afford.
ed that we discarded the physicians
prescription and relied entirely on
the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura ONT
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks We had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence Of
the trouble.
In July Of this year a little boy
in our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty.
four hours his hands and arms were
mass Of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, washing
his hands and arms with the Cuticura
Soap, and amounting them with the
Cuticura Ointment. and then gave
him the Cuticura Resolvent. In.
about three weeks his hands and
arms healed up. So we have lots of
cause for feeling grateful for the Gu.
ticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura- Remedies are a valuable
household standby, living as we dc

UnIovely Water Tanks.


"No doubt" observed the man who

the doings of others with critical eyes,

ton is to flood the threatened build.

no question about the utility of these
attachments, but why should all re.
gard for appearance. not to say
beauty, be overlooked in their design?
II there is anything in preserving
some uniformity in what artists and
others delight to call the sky line of
the streets of the city, why is the bare

COFFEE rHREsHEp HER.

"For over fifteen years." writes q

while coffee drinker, I suffered
from Spinal Irritation and Nervous
trouble. was treated by good physi.
clans, but did not get much relief.
Il never suspected that coffee might
be aggravating my condition. was
downhearted and discouraged, but
prayed daily that might find some.
thing to help me.
Several years ago while at a
friends house, I drank cup Of Post
UNI and thought I had never tasted
anything more delicious.
From that time on I used Postum
instead Of coffee. and soon began to
improve in health, so that now can
walk half dozen blocks or more with
ease. and do many other things that
I never thought I would be able to
do again in this world.
my appetite is good, sleep we'll,
and find life worth living, indeed. A
lady Of my acquaintance said she did
not like Postum, It was so weak and
tasteless.
Il explained to her the difference
when 1t is made right-boiled accord

know this because coffee did not agree
with her. Now her folks say they ex.

MORTALITY REPORT
CONSUMPTION AND PNEUMONIA
HEAD DEATH LIST.
Statistics Show That the Greatest
Number Of Deaths From Luno
Trouble Occur In Winter.

Tho Bureau of Census has published
. report presenting mortality statistics
for the United States for the five cal.
endar years 1900 to 1904.
AS shown in the table, tuberculosis
OF the lungs and pneumonia were by
far the leading causes of death. The
greatest number Of deaths from lung
trouble occur during the winter
months. Colds are SO prolific of lung
trouble that they should not be neg
lected. Persons with weak lungs
should be especially careful.
A noted authority on lung trouble
advises that as soon as cold is con.
tracted the following simple treatment
should be given. The ingredients can
be purchased from any prescription
druggist at small cost and easily pre-.
pared in your own home. It is said to
be so effective that it will break up a
cold in twenty-four hours and cure any
cough that is durable.
Take onehalf ounce Virgin OIL Of
Pine (Pure), two ounces of Glycerine
and eight ounces of good Whisky.
Shake well and take in teaspoonful
doses every four hours.

ARE KEEN AFTER RECRUITS.
Intense Rivalry Between Army and
Navy Departments.

An army officer in Washington on
visit has directed attention to Difficult.
ty officers are experiencing in secur.
ing recruits for the army in order to
keep it up to anywhere near its legal
quota. He added that the scarcity Of
material for the making Of fighting
men had resulted in a peculiar condi-
ton in certain places where there are
both army and navy recruiting depots.
1t has been charged that officers in
charge of naval recruiting have
"swiped" recruits that had been prom.
Used to the army, and vice versa, so
keen has become the rivalry between
the two branches of the service. He
pointed to recent occurrence at
Sioux City, which is considered one
of the best recruiting points in the
United States. The army was the first
to establish a station there. Then fol.
lowed the marines, and lastly the navy
came in its quest for sailormen. At
first, 1t is said, the three officers in
charge of the several stations were on
friendly terms, but that condition is
said to exist no longer. Each officer is
trying to Guido the other, and any in
fringement on each others territory ia
quickly and holly resented. It is un-
derstood that an applicant is not en-.
listed until he reaches headquarters,
and many are said to be enticed to
rival stations. Among the causes ad.
vanced for the scarcity Of material for
the army are the severe penalties that
are inflicted by the courts-martial and
the absence Of extras in the menus
of the military posts. due to the abo.
lition Of the army canteen, which for
merry supplied a company fund to
provide butter, milk and other things
not contemplated in the army supply
list.
