for four or five months but did not get
much help for my piles. During this
time sores would come on q fieshy part

another would come. These sores
changed to eczema, accompanied by
a terrible itching. It seemed as i

brought on an inhamed condition.
Then Igot the Cuticura Remedies.
washed the affected parts with Cuticura

It took month Of this treatment to

III Ag MINERS
GEOLOGICAL SURVEY TO EsTAR'
LIsH STATIONS IN VARIOUS
COAL DISTRICTS.
EXPERTS 70 Be IN CHARGE
Mine Bosses and Men to Be Taught
Use Of Approved Apparatus
In Case Of Explo-
slons.

Washington, Dec. 28.-Carrying GU
its efforts to reduce the number o
fatalities In coal mines the Unitet
States geological survey Is about II
establish rescue stations in the prin
cipal coal fields of the county in add
ton to the experiment station now 10
Gated at Pittsburg. 1t will be the
purpose of the experts to teach the
miners and mine bosses how to use
the most approved apparatus for res
cue work.
Government mining engineers will
be assigned to the stations and will
be ready at a moments notice to go
to any disaster. They will be equipped
with oxygen helmets which will en-
able them to enter mine at once
even though 1t is filled with gas or
smoke.
1t is the intention to have every
station fitted up with an alright room
where gas can be generated. The
coal mining companies will be invited
to send picked men to these stations
where they will be trained by the
government In the use of the oxygen
helmets.
One Of the stations will be at Ur.
bana, ILL.,, In connection with the Uni
verslty Of Illinois. This station will
take care Of Illinois, Indiana, Michi-
gan, Iowa, Northern Missouri and
Western Kentucky.
A second station will be located pro-
badly at Ration. N. M, to take care of
New Mexico, Colorado. Utah, Wyo.
ming and Montana. The largest coal
output In New Mexico and Colorado,
comes from the Trinidad field which
Is Immediately accessible to Ration.
Another station Is suggested for this
district, to be located at Salt Lake
City. This will be central for the sew
raj Utah fields and will be accessible
o the Montana fields and also the
Washington fields.
The coal fields Of Oklahoma, Arkan-
as and Southwestern Missouri will
70 taken care of by station in the
of South McAlester, Ok.
Several locations are suggested for
he station which will cover Alabama,
'ennessee, Virginia, Eastern Ken
icky, Georgia and Southern West vir-
inia. One plan is to locate station
Knoxville, Tenn, in connection with
10 University of Tennessee, which is
'cated at Knoxville, and has mining =
purse. George s. Rice. mining en-
lneer will have general charge Of
j mining inquiries at the stations
nd j. W, Paul, former state mine
spector Of West Virginia will have r
lpervision charge of all rescue work. 8
At these stations not only will op. I
'rtunity be given the miners to be- p
me familiar with the rescue appar. il
us but safety lamps of all designs t
III be tested for their general safety q

Washington, Dec. ga wave o

sentiment has SO crystalized against

the new year opens upon a vast
stretch of territory absolutely bereft
Of liquor, while the area where anti.
Prohibitionists have triumphed, marks
the battle-ground for impending fights

Significant Of the magnitude this
problem has assumed is the fact that
In many states prohibition obscures
all other municipal and state ques-
lions. Other states have disposed of
the issue. temporarily at least by the
passage Of statutory laws whose eff
cheney must yet be tested. In still
other states the elections have re-
stricted the sale of liquor to the larger
cities.
More than half the South's terri

cities are the only remaining strong
holds for the saloons, and 1t is unlike
ly that this condition will be modified
except through a radical change In
political thought, through failure to
enforce the laws against the liquor
traffic, failure to solve the problem
growing out OF dificits in county, mu.
nicipal and state treasures from
loss Of the whisky tax, and perhaps.
other obstacles which follow in the
wake Of prohibition. Georgia for a
year has been experimenting with a
near prohibition law forbidding the
