CUTICURA A STANDBY
 THAT NEVER FAILS HER

"I just cant say enough for the Cuti- cura Remedies, 1 can't find words high enough to express my thanks to God for hearing of the wonderful remedies. My baby had a running sore on his neck and nothing that 1 did for it took effect until I used Cuticura. My face was nearly full of letter or some similar. skin disease. It would itch and, after scratching, it burned so-that I could hardly stand it. Two cakes of Cuti- cura Soap and box of Cuticura Oint- ment cured me. Two years after it broke out on my hands and wrist. I cured it for a while, but it came again in the summer. Sometimes I would 20 nearly crazy for it itched so badly. I used ten dollars worth of so-called blood medicines which did no good at all, then went back to my old standby, that had never failed me. One set of Cuticura Soap. Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent did the work. One set also cured my uncle's baby whose head was a cake of sores. and know of another woman's baby who was in the same fix and nothing else did any good. I speak a word of praise for Cuticura whenever l see a case that needs it. Mrs Lille Wilcher. TO Eleventh St., Chattanooga, Tenn. Feb. I6, 19O7."

BELMONT PARK, N r., May 2s.-
The Canadian turfmen scored nota-
BILE victory and won large sums of
money today when Tourenne defeated
Jack Atkin In the Cosmopolitan han
dicap. The big bay son OF Odd Fell
low had all of his old speed and won
easily by three lengths. His closing
price was to 1. Atkin rushed to the
front at the start and acted rs the
pace maker. He showed the way by
a merry clip to the head OF the stretch.
Tourenne was two lengths away, with
the remainder of the field strung out.
Rounding the turn the race narrowed
down to a struggle between the lead
ers. Musgraye moved Tourenne up
fast and challenged for the lead as
the bend was made. At that period of
the contest Dugan on Jack Atkin car
ried Tourenne wide and bumped the
latter horse several times. Jack At
kin clung tenaceously TO his lead, and
fought the issue out until the last six
teenth OF mile. Then, as predicted,
the gallant son of Sain began TO tire
rapidly and Tourenne passed him in
the last hundred yards and won by
three lengths. Summary:

SPECIAL plspArcH TO THE CALI

ALBANY, n. Y, May 26.--More like
a game of battledore and shuttlecock
than a deliberate legislative program
is the plan which the leaders of the
two houses have framed up and put
into operation to end the extra session.
From the way the game opened up
today the indications are that the more
important of the recommendations
made by Governor Hughes will be
ruthlessly slaughtered, and the legis-
lators will go home defiant OF his fur
ther wishes.
There is a general belief that the

not, although outwardly there appears
to be rs votes for the measures, just
