The Popular Portrait.

I really cannot arrive at satisfac,
tory explanation of the question,
What makes portrait popular?"
A portrait may be greatly admired in
a studio and fail to attract much at
tention in an exhibition, and vice
versa. Personally when a portrait
pleases sitter / am satisfied, but
that is, of course, a different thing
from pleasing the popular taste in an
exhibition.-Charles Shannon, in The
Taller.

HORSE Trade Reyived.

The most significant feature of the
horse trade in New York City is the
decided decrease in the number Of
firms selling their stock and equip
ment at auction, owing to lack of
work. During the winter and early
spring seasons hardly a week passed
without the announcement of one or
two big concerns putting their plants
under the hammer either at regular
or special sale. The result was that
the private dealer was practically out
of business while the state of affairs

FEARFUL ECZEMA ALL OVER HIM.
No Nights Rest for Year and Limit
of His Endurance Seemed Near
Owes Recovery to CuticIra

My son Clyde was almost completely
covered with eczema. Physicians treated
him for nearly year without helping him
any. His head, face, and neck were COW
cred with large scabs which he would rub
until they fell off. Then blood and matter
would run out and that would be worse
Friends coming to see him said that if he
got well he would be disfgured for life.
When it seemed as if he could possibly
stand it no longer, used some Cuticura
Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuiicura
Resolvent. That was the first night for
nearly year that he slept. In the morn
ing there was great change fol- the better.
In about six weeks he was perfectly well.

BIG HARVEsTs PROMISED.
Every Important Crop in All Sections
of the Country FIourishes

Washington, p. C.-Mother earth
holds out this year the brightest
promise for the American farmer.
Never since the keeping of statistics
has been one of the recognized func-
tions of the Federal Government has
there been promise of a bigger har-
vest. Every important crop in every
section of the country except the Far
West is in more flourishing condi-
ton than ever recorded.
The harvest of 1907 was the larg-
est known That is the year the
farmers of the West paid off their
mortgages and put money in the
bank wherewith to buy pianos, tour
ist tickets for European trips, auto
mobiles and other things of luxury
their fathers never imagined possible
and their grandfathers never even
dreamed of.
Although corn is not well advanced
the promise is for crop of substan-
TALLY 1850, 900 bushels, to stand
against the crop of 1906, which re-
suited in 1,166, 626,479 bushels. At
going prices that crop is worth to the
farmers 1926, 100000 Not great
deal, it is true, in comparison with
the capitalization of the Steel Trust,
but still enough to give assurance
that the American farmer will not be
starved during the coming winter.

YOU'RE TOO THIN.
E0su Slight CatayvAal Deraxgsmeaks
Of the StomaeA Py0duce HID Fer
aaentatton IF The Food.
It's Stomach Cut0ayh

Some people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperamental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
popularity.
But there are large number of peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and feshy
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is chiefly composed Of
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily constit-
uents of food.
The fat-making foods are called by
the Psychologist, hydrocarbons. This
class OF foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division of the ali
mentary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, If not
wholly, the work of the pancreatic
juice. This juice is Of alkaline reac-
ton, and lis rendered inert by the addi-
ton of acid. A hyperacidity of the
digestive fluids of the stomach passing
down into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gested or emulsified, and the system is
deprived of it's due proportion Of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning of the trouble is ca
tarrhal condition of the stomach which
causes hyperacidity of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation Of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into the stom-
ach, if the process of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton will take place. This creates q
hyperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pam
creatic digestion of the oils, and the
emaciation results.
A dose Of Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. By
hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation of the contents of the
stomach, and the pancreatic juice is thus
preserved in its normal state. 1t then
only remains for the patient to eat q
sufficient amount of fat-forrning foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.
