Philander Chase Knox of Pennsyl
vania, secretary of state in the cab
met Of President Taft, was born a
Brownsville, Pa, in 1858. He wal
| graduated from Mount Union college
Ohio, in 1872, and three years latel
was admitted to the bar. During the
years 1876 and 1877 he served as as
sistant United States district attorney
Tor the western district Of Pennsyl
vania. In the latter year he formed
a law partnership with James H. Reed
which still exists and which has rep
resented many large corporations, in
Guiding the Carnegie Company. Mr.
Knox entered President McKinley's
cabinet as attorney general in April
1901, serving until 1904, when he was
elected United States senator from
Pennsylvania. The latter position he
resigned to become the head of Presi
dent Taft's cabinet.
Wilson Retains His Place.
Only one member Of the Roosevelt
cabinet retains his portfolio under
Mr.. Taft. That Is James Wilson OF
Iowa, secretary OF agriculture. So ex'
cellent had been his work in that posi-
ton that there was no serious talk OF
making a change. Born In Scotland In
1885, Mr.. Wilson came to the United
States in 1852 and three years later
settled In Iowa. In 1851 he engaged in
farming in Tama county. He was a
member of the Iowa assembly for
three sessions and speaker of the
house for one session, and also was a
member of the Iowa state railway
commission. In 1873 he was elected
to congress, serving two terms, and
was sent to the national legislature
again for one term In 1883. He was
regent OF the State university Of
Iowa in 1904, and in 1890 was
made director of the agricultural ex-
pertinent station and professor of agri-
culture Of the Iowa Agricultural col
lege, Ames, la. In 1897 he became
secretary of agriculture.
MacVeagh for the Treasury.
Franklin MacVeagh, secretary of the
treasury, was born on a farm in
Chester county, Pennsylvania, gradu-
ated from Yale in 1862 and from
Columbia Law school in 1864. He be-
gan the practice Of law in New York
city but ill-health forced him to aban-
don it and in 1865 he went to Chicago
and engaged in the wholesale grocery
business. In this and other CONNER
cial pursuits he has amassed a large
fortune. Before entering the cabinet
he disposed Of his holdings in the big
grocery firm and resigned as director
of the Commercial National bank Of
Chicago. Mr.. Macveagh has always
been interested in movements for the
public welfare, locally and nationally.
Dickinson Is MAJ Secretary.
Jacob M. Dickinson Of Tennessee
and Chicago, the new secretary. of
war, was born in 1851 at Columbus,
Miss. He graduated from the Uni
versity of Nashville in 1872 and after
ward studied law at Columbia college,

Too Wall pone.

Mrs. Ellphalet Howe OF centerville
had never encountered Hamlet ei-
ther in the pursuit OF literature or on
the stage up to the time OF her first
visit to her Boston niece. On that oc-
casion she was taken by the niece and
her husband to see a performance Of
the play.
"How did you like IT, Aunt JaneT
asked her nephew-in-law as he piloted
the old lady up the aisle by her elbow
when the performance was over.
"If that's what you call a play
call It hard work." said Aunt Jane in
dignantly. "How you and Nettie can
sit calm in your seats and see such
heartless doings IS beyond me. Why,
that Hamlet man looked - sick ]
shouldn't have been surprised If he
hadn't lived TO finish out his talking.
And by the expression Of those other
folks I'll venture TO say they felt the

What army was the strongest OF It's
time? Judging by results, the Roman
army was so from the fifth century
b. @. onward until the division Of the
empire. It's fighting organization was
as complete as and possibly more prac-
tlcal than that Of any army Of today.
1t was based on a territorial system
which maintained the comradeship OF
locality without bringing It into an
tagonism with that Of the corps. for

The legion was divided into FIVE CO.
horts or battalions. Of which three

Until She BIed - After Seven
Months of Futile Treatment,
Little Girl was Completely
CURED IN TWO WEEKS
BY CUTICURA REMEDIES

my daughter, twelve years Of age
was afflicted with a terrible itching Of
the hands which was so bad at night
that she was unable 10 sleep. She
scratched herself until she bled. The
trouble began in the shape Of small pus-
tules about the size Of a pinhead which
produced severe itching and then a hard
scab formed on top. These always
opened up again, bleeding badly. From
the fingers It extended over the hand
and as far as the elbows. The doctor
said il was eczema and that recovery
would necessarily be slow. He treated
my daughter for seven months, but the
trouble always grew worse. Then
started in to use the Cuticura Remedies.
After had used Cuticura Soap for two
weeks. with Cuticura Ointment and
Cuticura Pills. her hands were healed.
