SKIN TROUBLES CURED.

 Relied on Cuticura Remedies.

About twelve or fifteen years ago I had breaking-out. and 1t itcbed and stung so badly that I could not have any peace because of it. Three doctors did not help me. Then I used some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint. ment, and Cuticura Resolvent and began to get better right away They cured me and have not been bothered with the itching since, to amount to anything. About two years ago I had la grippe and pneumonia which left me with pain in my side Treat. ment ran it into my leg, which then swelled and began to break out. The doctor was afraid it would turn to blood-poison. l used his medicine but it did no good. then I used the Cuticura Remedies three times and cured the breaking-out on my leg. ]. F. Hennen, Milan.

DEMOCRATIC TEXT BOOK.

John Sayles ill the Buffalo (N, Y) Times:
 The Democratic campaign text book is out
 It is a classic-worthy of our splen. did leaders and righteous cause.
 Looking a il from an external point of view the book is as handy as one could wish. IL is just the right size to carry in the pocket
 The text is clear, good print. It's type emphasizes the vital points and the general reading matter is easy for the eyes.
 The arrangement of the material is a work of skill The subjects are log ically placed and each topic receives adequate treatment
 The issues of this campaign belong peculiarly to the year 1908. To be up to date the campaign speaker must know this book by heart.
 Publicity of campaign funds is topic the people are interested in, and this little red handbook has the sub jecl in a nutshell The guarantee of bank deposits is q subject very much alive The compilcrs of the text book anticipated this fact and made ample provision for il The election of United States senators by inc people ac- cords with the popular desire for a larger rule by the people. The book is eloquent on the subject
 The trusts come in for their proper I., people by the throat, and what with high prices and thousands of people out of work they will get roundly scored before election, and if Bryan is inaugurated next March certain criminals will ornament prison cells. The book tells it's own story on the subject in graphic fashion.
 Tarif robbery receives clear expo sition in the book All the buncombe about the benefits accruing from system of taxation which makes the rich richer and the poor poorer re- ceives the drubbing 1t deserves.
 Republican extravagance in spend ing the peoples money to support an army of a hundred thousand extra of ticeholders appointed by the Roosevelt administrations is held before the read CTS until he feels the wickedness of wholesale Republican robbery as never before
 In fine the Democratic campaign text book is as full of facts as an egg is of meat
 Every Democrat should own copy. This is to be campaign of issues, not personalities. The presidential can vass. therefore, will be chiefly a dis cussion of public measures.
 Send your silver quarter to Text Book" department, Democratic na tional committee, Auditorium Annex, Chicago. III, and procure this book. Saturate yourself with it. Then go for the Republicans and correct their errors.

 "l am satisfied there will be no tar in revision this congress. but fl goes without saying that the desire for a change which exists in the com mon mind will drive the Republican party, if continued in power, to a tariff revision. do not want 1t, but if will come in the not distant fwure"
 When revision comes. 1t will be like the Diugley bill-for the trusts and not for the consumers.
