SUFFERED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS.
With Eczema-Her Limb Peeled and
Foot Was Raw-Thought Amputa-
tion Was Necessary-Beiieves
Life Saved by Cuticura.

ST have been treated by doctors for
twenty-five years for a bad case OF
eczema on my leg. The.r did their best
but failed to cure it. My doctor had
advised me to have my leg cut off. At
this time my leg was peeled from the
knee, my foot was like a piece of raw
flesh, and I had to walk on crutches
bought a set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the first two treatments the
swelling went down, and in two
months my leg wasacured and the new
skin came on. The doctor was sur
prised and said that he would use
Cuticura for his own patients. Ihave
now been cured over seven years, and
but for the Cuticura Remedies I
might have lost my life. Mrs. J. B.

commingling of their minds and souls
is natural. This talk of ours tonight
has. perhaps. done me as much good
as you"

Liberia has lately lost nominal con-
troll of part of the territory over which
the congress of the black republic was
supposed to exercise sovereignty. A
new treaty with France has been ne
gotiated, delimiting the boundaries of
the republics country to the advan-
tage of France. The French insist
that in view of the ignorance of the
natives in the interior of the existence
of any Independent government on the
coast, it issnot encroachment on an in
dependent power for the French to
push their boundaries seaward. As
Liberia is an Independent power, the
protection of it's territory is matter
for its government, and not for out
siders. American friends of the coun-
try may regret that the experiment of
setting UP negro republic has not
been more successful. but they must
face the facts.

1t is the opinion OF DIR. Hirsch that
children are entitled to fairy tales.
They are one of the pleasures of youth
which stern old people trying to raise
them by rules should not take from
them. The old people shouldn't be so
particular anyway. They like fairy
tales themselves. The young woman
who. firing of her job of scrubbing the
back stairs, turns shoplifter and then
tells tale of millionaire papa, will
keep the grown-ups open-mouthed and
calling for more, until some one tele-
graphs the sad news to pa and finds
that he doesn't exist or that if he does
he is paying teller in a livery stable
and has lost interest in his charming
daughter since she ran away with the
actor man. Can you blame the little
children for crying fer marvels? Pa
wakes fat on them, taking them all
in and saying. What a pity that one
SO fair and well raised should have
come to this!"

At a recent examination in a
country school list of words was
given among the questions, each
word having to be defined fully.
One of the words given was bach
elor." One of the boys handed in
the following lucid definition: "A
bachelor is a man who has no wife,
nor wants no wife, nor can't get no
wife" We are wondering how
many men in River Falls can quail
fy for the order of "single-blessed-
ness" under this definition.

GARY TO HAVE A TEAM

Gary will have a basketball team
this year which will represent the city,
but owing to the fact that a suitable
hall cannot be secured, they will have
to schedule out of town games entire
ly. The team will work hard from now
on until snow flies, working in the
open air, until they feel that they have
had enough practice to that they will
be reasonably accurate in playing in
doors.
The members of the team have all
had more or less experience in playing
the game and feel that as soon as they
can get together and do a little team
work. that they will be able to carry
away a few scalps this year. The
boys have been practicing regularly
on the old tennis court in the open
air, where the baskets have been
erected

Forwards, w. Smith and F. Osborne;
center. F. Rawley; guards, H. Gibson
