THREE CURES OF ECZEMA.
Woman Tells of Her Brothers. Terrible
Suffering-Two Babies Also Cured
-Cuticura 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 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

What chance has a young man TO
rise in the employment of a large cor.
poration? is question frequently
asked. OF course it depends largely
on the young man; but according TO
a statement recently sent cut by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, 81
of the IS principal officers o. the CON-
pany started at the bottom and worked
up. A fact like this is worthy many
volumes OF theorizing on the subject.

Queer things are alleged TO get into
sausages, and perhaps the experience
of lady in Wakefield, Mass. should
not cause surprise. She was eating
sausage when she bit tack and broke
a front tooth. Thereupon the lady
went into court, and a jury has Just
awarded her $4,000 damages. That is
the New England spirit, says the Bos.
ton Herald. The Bostonians OF pre-
revolutionary days made strenuous re-
sistance to the tax on tea, and this de-
scendant of resolute ancestors con-
sistently draws the line at tacks In

marvellous work in this respect Their

be confined between the Hudson River
and the Palisades. But we have here

property even now formed into a park,
