hdence of his brother lawyers and
among his enthusiastic supporters are
found many of the leading lawyers of
Topeka. He is widely and favorably
known as a lawyer and has an excel
lent reputation as citizen.
Mr.. Greenwood has never been a
candidate for an office before, but he
has been elected by the graduates of
Washburn college a member of the
board of trustees of that institution for
twelve successive years.
When asked how he would conduct
the office of probate judge, if elected,
Mr.. Greenwood said:
II believe a mans past reputation
and record should be the largest fac
tor in determining his fitness for a
position rather than his ante-election
promises. What he has been in the
past and what he has stood for ought
in the future. But to those who do
not know me I am glad to express my
self
cit is not everyone who realizes the
Importance of the office of probate
judge in a county like ours containing
a city Of the size of Topeka. At least
four-fifths of the business of the office
concerns the administration of estates
of deceased persons, minors and the
insane. 1t is of the greatest impor-
lance lIldL lie property VI WldOWo,
orphans and the unfortunate insane
should be administered with justice,
promptness, honesty and strict econ
omy.
1.-THE duties of the judge of the
Juvenile court are imposed upon the
probate judge, and in my judgment
the proper management of truants and
juvenile offenders demands the best
and most careful efforts of the court.
1t is the purpose and policy of the law
that the rules of equity rather than
those of the police court should gov
ern in the handling of juvenile often
ders. 1T would be my purpose, if
nominated and elected, to give indf-
viduaI consideration to such cases in
order that equity may govern in the
correction or punishment of first Of
lenses, but with firmness and not leni-
ency alone with the object in view to
reform and uplift the young violators
of law and to protect society against
their further offenses.
I'm granting druggists permits
believe the spirit as well as the letter
of the law should govern. The pro-
bate Judge has the matter largely un-
der his control and he ought to issue
permits only to legitimate druggists
and never allow jointfst the aid of
druggists permit in carrying on his
business and any druggist violating
the law in any particular should nave
his permit promptly revoked.
"Above all things 1 think the fees
paid by drug gists to the probate judge
upon sales made by them ought to be
paid into the county treasury and that
the probate judge should not profit by
an Increased number of sales"

ITCHING HUMOR
ON LITTLE BOY
His Hands were a Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over His Body
In Four Days the Child was
Entirely Cured-Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTlCURA
SOAP AND OINTMENT

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 the Cuticura Remedies being
so good for itching sores, ETC., that 1
thought I would get them. BY this
time the disease had spread all over his
body, and his hands were nothing but
q solid mass of this itching disease. I
went to the drug store and purchased
a 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 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 SUI
fered as my baby did ought to know Of
the Cuticura Remedies. I will surely
and gladly recommend the Cuticr1ra
Remedies. for they are godsend to ali
suffering with skin diseases. Mrs. Frank
Donahue, 2OS Fremont St., Kokomo.

Topographic maps to prove his con-
tention, Judge Madison digested all
the conditions and visited DR.. Newell.
Bringing the matter to the considera-
ton of that official, and urging action
upon him, it was not long before the
promise was made that an agent
should make a full and personal in
vestigation Of the situation with the
view to determining the feasibility of
the scheme
The water may be easily impounded
IN this natural sink, or basin, and dis
tr1buted evenly and without great diff
f1culty through northern Haskell and
Grant counties. Taking the water
from the Arkansas river, probably
near Syracuse, Hamilton county, it
will be run into the basin, impounded,
and let out to flow thence toward
Ulysses, Grant county, and at that
point defect to the east and irrigate
lands in Haskell and northern Grant
counties if Judge Madison's plans
carry.
The Kansas reclamation fund has
earned good deal of money since it's
establishment, is now largely depict
ed, owing to the final work on the
Garden City project, but expen ditures
on the latter will shortly cease, and
then 1t is that the fund will begin to
grow, SO that, il Judge Madison's
plans work out, by the time the in
vestigation shall be completed and the
preliminary plans ended, there will be
money to commence the work.
In case for any reason DR.. Newell
should not be satisfied with the pro-
posed plan Of Judge Madison for
Grant and Haskell counties, upon full
investigation, the Seventh district rep
resentative will not give up, but states
he will find something else in the
| southwest that will produce results.

itching, Burning Skin Disease Rout.
ed Without Use ct Injurious Drugs.

Great inventors often have been praised
for spfrendering the secrets Of their dis
coveries. Practically the same thing hap
pened in the medical world in the case Of
DR.. Decatur D. Dennis, the eminen. skin
specialist of Chicago.
Dr. Dennis, in his own Office practice,
discovered that pure vegetable Oil of win
tergreen, properly mixed with other sim
pie remedies, was practically . sure specific
for the Eczema, psoriasis, barber's itch,
salt rheum and other itching skin dis
eases. But the oil Of wintergreen alone
was found ineffective. It required other
mild ingredients such as glycerine and
thymol compounded with the wintergreen
to produce the real eczema cure.
This compounded D. D. D. Prescription
positively takes away the itch at once
the instant it is applied to the skin. This
vegetable liquid does away with deleteri-
GUS drugs SO long used in an attempt to
doctor the blood, whereas modern science
has determined that eczema is first and all
the time skin disease.
II you want to know more about the
merits Of d. D. d. Prescription, call at our
store. We vouch for this remedy. E. g.
