Bleeding Flesh = Hoped Death

CASE SEEMED HOPELESS
BUT CUTICURA CURED HER

"Words cannot describe the terrible
eczema I suffered with. It broke out
on my head and kept spreading until it
covered my whole body. I was almost
o solid mass of sores from head to foot.
I looked more like piece Of raw beef
than human being. The pain and
agony I endured seemed more than
could bear. Blood and pus oozed from
the great sore on my scalp, from under
my finger nails, and nearly all over my
body. My ears were 80 crusted and
swollen I was afraid they would break
of. Every hair in my head fell out.
I could not sit down, for my clothes
would stick to the raw and bleeding
flesh. making me cry out from the pain.
My family doctor did all he could, but
was awful. I did not think I could live.
and wanted death to come and end my
frightful suf7erings.
"In this condition my mother-in-law
begged me to try the Cuticura Rem
edies. said I would, but had no hope
of recovery. But oh, what blessed re-
lief I experienced after applying Cuti-
oura Ointment. It cooled the bleeding
and itching flesh and brought me the
first real sleep I had had in weeks. It
was as grateful as ice to a burning
tongue. would battle with warm
water and Cuticura Soap, then apply
the Ointment freely. also took Cuti-
cura Resolvent for the blood. In a
short time the sores stopped running.
the flesh began to heal, and I knew I
was to get well again. Then the hair
on my head began to grow, and in a
short time I was completely cured.
I cannot praise Gu ticura enough. !
wish I could tell everybody who has
eczema to use Cuticura. My condition
was SO terrible that what cured me
cannot fail to cure anybody of this
awful disease. If any one doubts the
truth of this letter, tell them to write

By the death of Gov. johnson, of
Minnesota, the state again comes
under republican executive control
through succession to the vacant
gubernatorial position by Lieutenant
Governor Adolph o. Eberhardt, who,
like the late governor, is Of Swedish
birth Mr.. Eberhard's name was
formerly Adolph Olson. but in the
Minnesota town where he lived it
happened that there were several other
Adolph Olson g, which led to more or
less confusion, so upon the occasion
of his marriage he also went
through the necessary legal formalities
by which he adopted the family name
of his wife, Eberhardt, as his own.
1t is not an uncommon occurrence in
communities where the Scandinavian
population is numerous, to find
several men of exactly the same name,
hence the custom of legal application
for change of name is frequently
made. Gov. Eberhardt is Il republi-
can. Gov. Johnson was the only demo
crat elected upon the state ticket.

When Commander Peary's staunch
little ship, the Roosevelt. was in the
harbor at Portland. Maine, prepa1a-
tory to starting on his Attic voyage,
the editor of The Herald CHANGED to
pass within almost touching distance
of her, on little yacht, along with a
party of friends, one of whom reached
out and caught a fragment of bunting
floating from the Roosevelt's deck.
This was cut up into small pieces
with a pocket knife and the pieces
distributed To the several mem bers of
the party with the remark that some
day they might, become interesting
souvenirs. in case the vessel was lost
in the Polar regions, or if Peary was
successful in his quest for the pole.
This incident is brought to mind by
accidentally coming across the scrap
of bunting this week among some
papers in an old pocket book which
the editor carried at the time. It is.
now, a really interesting relic.

CRITISIZING TAFT.

The so-called republican Sim
surgents'' will do themselves and the
cause they represent no good becom-
ing hysterical.
1t was their privilege to vote
against the Payne tariff bill if they
so wished. 1t was equally the right
of the president to sign the bill if he
thought that was the wise and proper
thing to do. He frankly stated to
the country that the new tariff was
not wholly to his liking but it was
the best that could be secured from
the present congress. He could have
vetoed it and appealed to the coun
try. On that issue a new congress
might have been elected that would
possibly have enacted a more salts
factory bill. That congress could
not have come together till next
March and the country would have
had full year of turmoil. strife and
unsettled business conditions that no
body wanted except few professional
agitators and scheming demagogues.
In signing the bill, he declared
that if it did not prove to be salts
factory. it would be amended in those
parts where amendment was needed.
In his Winona speech. he explained
his course. He chose as the place
where he should set forth his views,

sionaI seat was in jeopardy because he
voted in favor Of the bill the presi-
dent signed.

President Taft has pursued an
admirable, consistent, statesmanlike
course. Yet the ''insurgent" press
is training its guns upon him. He is
being abused because he did not
perform the impossibility of securing
what they say he ought to have secur-
ed. Almost without exception these
attacks are purely selfish. engineered

THE TARIFF ON COAL.

In criticising, last week, the at.
gitude of President Taft on the tariff
bill, as expressed in his speech at
Winona, our local contemporary,
The Teller said:
What Mr.. Taft means may be as
little understood as the meaning of
the platform. What does be mean by
-'iniured?" Does he mean it was not
intended that a downward revision
should not effect a reduction of prices
of anything? Take the price of coal
s for example. If there was tax of. 81
on a ton of coal delivered here at SO
does he mean it was not intended that
taking off that tax should have the
effect to bring the price of coal down
below ST? 1t is certain that the coal
dealers prices would be reduced more
than the cost of the tariff if the tariff
were taken off, unless they formed a
trust with foreign dealers. In
that way they could claim they we're
injured" But if it is fact that
their prices are eXtortionate, does Mr..
Taft mean that the extortion should
not be interfered with, and that the
platform did not mean Go interfere
with it?'
The inference that would naturally
be drawn from the above comment is
that there is a tariff duty of two
dollars per ton on coal and that if this
had been left off by the new tariff
law, coal in Lancaster would be two
dollars pei ton cheaper than it now
is This inference is strengthened
by a sentence farther along in our
contemporary comment. when it
says:
ga tariff on coal is also retained.
though it is Natures, not mans max
ing. The supplies of these stores are
being rapidly exhausted. Also all
available sources, under system of
legal robbery, are in posse ssion of a
few men, yet tariff is put on all of
these articles that are required by the
peoples necessities, and this tariff.
more than doubled through effect of its
restraint upon competition, goes into
the pockets of the monopolists."
Whatever meaning was intended to
be conveyed by the above, it
should be understood that THERE
is NO TARIFF ON COAL of the
anthracite or hard coal variety. which
is the kind that sells at 50 90 per ton
and the kind mostly in use for house
hold purposes. Such coal is on the
free list. The price is high in this
part of the country because it comes
from Pennsylvania mines and trans
Dortatlon charges are heavy, In
Michigan the same quality of coal
may be purchased for 81 per ton, and
in some of the western states it has at
times sold as high as $2S per ton.
Bituminous, or soft coal, under the
new law, is protected from foreign
competition by tariff duty of only
10 cents ton. and there ara instances
where it is entirely free of entry.
