-Cutlcura Invaluable.

MY brother had eczema three diff
ferent summers. Each summer it came
out between his shoulders and down
his back, and he said his suffering
was terrible. When it came on the
third summer, he bought a box of
Cuticura Ointment and gave it a faith
full trial. Soon he began to feel better
and he cured himself entirely of &c.
zema with Cuticura. A lady in In
diana heard of how my daughter,
Mrs. Miller, had cured her little son
of terrible eczema by the Cuticura
Remedies. This lady's little one had
the eczema so badly that they thought
they would lose it. She used Cuti-
cura Remedies and they cured her
child entirely, and the disease never
came back. Mrs Sarah e. Lusk Cold

A GREAT MESSAGE.

- On last Thursday President Roosevelt
sent a special message to Congress. 1t
came Unexpectedly and its recommen-
dations were startling not only to Con-
gress but to all the people. No State
paper has been furnished by President
that has excited such widespread inter
est since President Jackson gave out
his celebrated Notification Proclama-
ton.
The vigorous language of the mes
sage was greeted in the House of Rep
resentatives with storms of applause,
first on the Democratic side, then on
the Republican side; and was ultimately
received with general demonstrations of
approval by the entire body. There
were many striking points in the docu-
ment; and the general public has given
its approval to most of the suggestions
OF the President. 1t has given new
courage and hope to the people and has
made the President more popular than
ever with all classes, except those who
are classed with the bad corporations
or the advocates of predatory wealth.
Mr.. Roosevelt declares that the Ad-
ministration is not engaged in any fight
on property but is strenuously uphold
ing the rights of property. He does not
hesitate, however, to assail the Stand
ard Oil Trust and certain notorious rail
road combinations, and invoke the aic
of Congress to so legislate as to destroy
the power of the evil trusts and railroad
combinations.
While the language of the President
is severe, it is not too much so when APP
piled to the conduct of those men OF
wealth who have combined to discredit
and overthrow all effort to administer
the law and prevent any Legislation that
may obstruct their depredations upor
the public.
The message is a great document II
has struck popular chord. The fruits
it will bring forth will be good, anC
Roosevelt will still stand as the idol OF
the people. They know he is brave anG
honest, and they are not afraid to trust
him.
