Life Saved by Cuticura.

II have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for bad case of
eczema on my leg. They did their best,
but failed to cure it. My doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off. At
this time my leg was peeled from the
knee, my foot was like piece Of raw
flesh, and had to walk on crutches.
I bought set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg was cured and the new
skin came on. The doctor was sur
prised and said that he would use
Cuttcura for his own patients. Ihave

Expects to Remain There.
/ asked Mr. Croker where he got his
love for the country and he replied that
he thought it was Unborn. He is native
OF Clonkilty. a little village not far from
Cork where he has several relatives still
living. He went to America when his
family emigrated when he was only four
years old. and his life has since been
spent on city pavements and within city
walls. but he says that he has always
had longing to be farmer and as
soon as he was able he bought himself q
place near Richfied Springs. New York.
where he spent much time as possible
every year. He is perfectly satisfied with
his present conditions. He has everything
that he considers necessary to make life
perfect and intends TO stay at Glencatrn
with his colts and his flowers and his
humble neighbors as long as he is spared.
And IL is an ideal place and an Ideal lie
for one who loves nature and quite. AL
though IL is a striking contrast TO the
scenes and excitement with which Mr..
Croker was surrounded in New York.
He seldom goes to Dublin. He seldom
leaves his own farm except for a drive
and never goes on the lS4and except 10
attend a race in which one of his horses
is running He does not intend TO return
TO New York. He knows of nothing that
requires his presence there and cannot
imagine an inducement strong enough 10
take him across the sea. He knows all
his present neighbors and Is on good
terms with them, and is well acquainted
with the leading horse breeders and rae
ing men of Ireland and England. Their
society is sufficient for him and he cares
for no other. He is not member OF any
club, he asks no favors of any one, ex-
cept to be let alone to enjoy himself In ms
own quiet way.

den and his hothouses is quadrangle OF
box stalls In the center Is statue or

owned and for which he had great affec-
tion. There are a dozen stalls and in the

and one or two others all foaied on the
place. and six yearlings which Mr.. Gro
ker exhibited to us with the pride of pos
session; and one or two others. which he
said ARE no good" AT the stable of
Alabama" he showed more animation
and did more talking than those who
know him would suppose him capable of.
Mr. Croker has the reputation of being
one Of the most reticent and Unconditional
men in the world. as all American poll
ticians know. and l never saw him warm
up over anything before. He has
face like bulldog. perfectly expression
less. and no one can ever tell whether he
is pleased or displeased from the lines In
his face or the tone of his voice. which Is
always low and deliberate. But when he
showed us Alabama, the son of Americas
and Rhoda B.. he woke up and actually
became animated as he described the fine
points of the colt and told us what h"
had been doing and what he is expected
to do, for he is entered for all the big
threa-year-old races next year and Is CT
tain to capture the Derby.
Mr.. Croker has an even dozen horses
and colts in training and he showed US
some yearlings of great promise. His

entered for races in Ireland this season
