Bad Fate Of q Workman Who Took an
Occasional Glass.
About half n century ago there lived
In quiet glen In Perthshire, Scotland,
John r., first class mechanic. handy
at any kind OF work, either In wood
or iron. He was n regular church
goer, n great controvcrsinlist on knotty
points of theology and, on the whole, n
man much respected in the communi.
ty.
Tho market town was about three or
four miles away, and It was a common
thing for him to leave his work and,
from sheer force OF habit, even when
he Ind nothing special calling him
there, to go to market every Thursday.
In his workshop ]. II. had q turning
lathe. which was driven by water
power, and no was known to be an
expert at tho art OF turning. Usually
he worked in his factory all alone.
One day, getting home from market
about midnfternoon, he took of some
of his good clothes. but did not ex.
change oil, nor did he take OF his tie
and collar, but went to his shop, turn,
ed on the water and started the lathe.
The older people who read this will
remember when It was all the fashion
to wear a black silk tic OF exquisite
quality with long ends hanging down
In front. Such tie my friend wore
on that day. Unfortunately 1t was
common for almost all who went to
market to visit the tavern and partake
moro or less OF liquor. So ]. II. had
done that day, and, although he wa'
not intoxicated, he had been drinking
and was not so clear IN his head MOI
SO steady on his feet as he should have
been. What was the result? STOPPING
forward and pressing the turning
chisel up against tho wood which he
was fashioning while II was rapidly
revolving In the lathe, the long ends OF
his silken tie were caught, and some
time afterward he was found, the ma
chine still going, and he was drawn
up close to the revolving wheel and
strangled, his eyes starting almost
from their sockets.--Home HerNld.
The proprietor Of ehe celebrated

"Ah, these cliffsW said the pro-

The next time storm rises see that
you are standing on the porch of
the inn. Why, sir, the air is always
heavily charged"
'T don't doubt it," laughed the
new guest, winking at another late
arrival, "and if 1 don't happen to
be standing on the porch 1 can feel
assured that it will be heavily charg-
ed apyway-on my bill."-Chicago

ECZEMA NOW CURABLE.
All Itching Skin Diseases Which Are
Not Hereditary Instantly Relieved
T.. by Oil of Wintergreen.

Can Eczema be cured?
Some physicians say Eyes"
Some say NO"
The real question is, What is
meant by Eczema?" If you mean
those scaly eruptions, those diseases
which make their first appearance,
not at birth, but years afterward, and
perhaps not until middle age-then
there can no longer be any question
that these forms of Eczema are cur
able.
Simple vegetable oil of wintergreen,
mixed with other vegetables ingred-
tents, will kill the germs that infest
the skin. Apply this prescription to
the skin. and instantly that awful itch
is gone. The very moment the liquid
is applied, that agonizing, tantalizing
itch disappears, and continued appli-
cations of this external remedy soon
cure the disease.
We carry in stock this oil of
wintergreen properly compounded in
to D. D. D. Prescription. While we
are not sure that twill cure all those
cases of skin trouble which are in
herited, we positively know that this
ID. D. D. Prescription, whenever
rightly used, will cure every last case
Of genuine Eczema or other skin
trouble, which did not exist at birth.
We know this. Anyway, your
self, will know that D. D. D. Pre-
scription instantly takes away the
itch the moment it is applied to the
skin. Charles Rogers & Son

Mr., Trumbull said that generally

however, that this gain was offset and
possibly would be for some time by
