SLEEP KILLED By an Itching Humor. Another Cure hy Cuticura Remedies.

"I broke out with a humor which spread almost all over my body. The itching would get worse on retiring, so l could not sleep. I tried several remedies but it grew worse until l got some Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Pills which began to relieve me at once. By the time 1 had used one vial of the Pills, the .humor was entirely gone. l wish every sufferer could secure the Cuti- cura Remedies. Travis Bates, Hamburg, Ark, April 26, 19O7."

Old Heirloom

There has recently arrived in this
city, and into the family of D. w. Mar
ston, 4O1 East Main street. what is
probably the Oldest piano in existence

is the property of Mr.. Marston, and
has been in his family close to $50
years.
The piano is grand of the old-old
fashioned kind, having six instead of
four legs The case is of solid mahog-
any, inlaid with brass and various
precious woods.
The instrument was originally the
property of Mr.. Marston's grandmoth-
err, who learned to play lit when she
was a girl 1t passed to Mr.. Marston's
mother, who also took her lessons on
the same instrument. Then it came in
70 the possession OF Mr.. Marston's
sister.
When visiting at his old home In
Maine this summer, Mr.. Marston came
across the old piano in a barn at his
sisters home, where it had been stored
for years. 1t was given to Mr.. Mar
ston. who shipped 1t home. The case Of
the instrument is in an excellent state
of preservation, but some of the strings
have rusted and broken. It will soon be
placed in the Marston home for the
family's use,

Des Moines, April 22.-The condi-
lions during the past week have been
unusually favorable for farm work,

vegetation, there being an excess of
temperature and sunshine, and suf-
f1cient moisture for present needs The
temperature was above normal in all
sections Of the state; and average
daily excess ranping from three de-
grees in the southeastern to about ten
degrees in the northwestern counties
Freezing temperature was, however,
general on the morning Of the 18th.
but owing to dry atmosphere and
brisk winds, no frost was abserved and
no damage was done. Practically
clear weather prevailed except on the
18th when showers occurred in all
sections except Appanoose county. The
rainfall was below the normal, and
was extremely light in eastern, south
ern and southwestern districts, but
the upper two thirds of the Des
Moines River valley and the extreme
northwestern counties the amounts
ranged from so to 1.5O inch.
Farm work has progressed rapidly
under such favorable conditions, and
the seeding of small grain is about
completed except in the extreme
northern counties, and a large acreage
has been plowed for corn Oats are
up in southern districts and show fair
ly good stand. Winter grains and
clover are in excellent condition, AMI
the prospects for fruit crops were
never better. Reports indicate that
stock is generally in good condition in
northern counties where winter feed
was scarce, and that there will be an
average number of spring pigs.
