plan of giving money conditionally is
not a bit admirable, however business
like it may be. 1t is not open-handed
generosity, especially when all the
honor of the occasion goes to the con-

The Chicago Tribune's special brings
the gratifying Intelligence that the as

OF the oil king. No limits have been
placed on the memorialfund, and none

permitted to dictate any. There are
enough admirers OF the late Joel Chan

ITCHING HUM0R
ON LITTLE BOY
His Hands we're a Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over His Body
In Four Days the Child was
Entirely Cured Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTICURA
SOAP AND

zone day we noticed that our little
boy was all broken out with itching
sores. We first noticed it on his little
hands,. His hands were not as bad
then, and we didn't think anything
serious would result. But the next day
we heard of he Cuticura Remedies being
so good for itching sores, etc., that I
thought I would get them. By this
time the disease had spread all over his
body, and his hands were nothing but
a solid mass of this itching disease. I
went to the drug store and purchased
q box Of Cuticura Soap and one box of
Cuticura Ointment, and that night I
stripped my little boy and took the
Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water and
washed him well. Then I dried him
with a soft bath towel, and took the
Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him
thoroughly with it. I did this every
evening before I put him to bed and in
three or four nights he was entirely
cured. You have my permission to
publish this because anybody who suf-
fered as my baby did ought to know Of
the Cuticura Remedies. I will surely
n gladly recommend the C%uticura
Remedies, for they are a godsend to all
suffering with skin diseases. Mrs. Frank

AN OPEN CANAL IN 1918.

An open Panama canal in 1918 is
promised. The digging will certainly
be completed in four years, for about
5000, 600 yards of dirt and rock are
taken out a month. The work on the
Gatum dam is progressing, and unless
unforeseen difficulties appear, it, tso,
will be completed in about four years.
The Gatum dam is on the Atlantic
slope, and it is to hold back the waters
of the Chagres river. It will create for
that purpose a laks IL miles long,
reaching almost within sight OF the
by means Of double locks, but a single
lock can no doubt be completed and
used while work on the other lock pre-
crosses.
All those facts will be set forth by
the Republican stumpers, and the en-
tire credit will be given to Mr.. Taft.
They will also attempt to say that he
only can complete the canal speedily
and within estimates. 1t will be claim

Gold Stealing in Australia.

There have recently been unpleasant
revelations as to the extent to which the
stealing of gold by the miners is carried
on in Australia. Some authorities esti-
mate that as much as a million pounds
worth of gold is lost every year by the
Australian mining companies in this
way. Most of the mining centers are
haunted by a shady class of nominal
gold buyers" who are really the ac-
completes of the dishonest miners, the
fences" in criminal slang. Representa-
tives Of the mining companies in Bendi-
90, where a record number Of cases of
gold stealing have recently occurred,
have met in conference to consider the
best means of dealing with the evil. AS
one way of checking the evil il was de-
cided to establish g register Of all the
miners employed in the Bendigo district,
so that the movements and migrations
of dismissed or reasonably suspected
men might be traced and observed. In
this way it is hoped to prevent the
thieves getting employment Ia other
mines.-Pall Mall Gazette.

Revival of the Kilt.

Twenty years ago the kilt was prac-
tically unknown in the city of Aberdeen.
1t was, indeed. held up to universal ridi-
Guile by the townsfolk. That has quite
changed, and on my last visit to Aber-
deem | discovered that even the school
boys have returned to kits, 1t has be-
come a recognized article of evening
dress, and, what is more strange still,
many of the young men of the better
TODD classes are learning to play the
pipes.
The manager of one of the principal
firms of Scottish tailors in the West End
of London stated recently that the move
ment was making considerable Roadway
among the upper and middle classes.
In London" he said, there is a grow
ing demand for Highland evening dress
outfits among the large body of Scots
men who belong to the various national
societies.
1.-THE Scottish evening dress is as cost
ly. as il is picturesque. A complete out
fit would be cheap at $3.50, the average
prices paid ranging from 500 to S225.
1t is possible, however, to spend as much
as $500 or $1,000, or even more, In the
matter Of ornaments"

Memory OF Bees.

memory of bees, in which he says that
experiments made by him show that the

The most convincing proof" he says,
twas furnished at my summer home in
Chigny, where we had many bees. At
a neighboring house they placed soma
preserves in the air to cool one day, and
the pots of sweets were discovered by a
bee, who must h3vC communicated the
news to others, ior ON the next day
when at the same hour the sweets were
put on the window sill number of bees
came to enjoy the feast. After that the
preserves were placed elsewhere and the
bees, after coming once and seeing moth.
ing to eat, remained away. Another case
took place at my own table. We take
our meals in the open air whenever the
weather will permit, and our bees soon
learned that at the morning meal there
were sweets, and they came for their
share. They also came at tea time, but
at dinner, when no sweets are served at
our table, they never came near us. The
morning visits finally became so popular
that for comforts sake we had to take
measures against the little gluttons."
