Dear Doctor:
Your favor of the 18th instaa.
has been received.
| have not thought anything about
the question of changing the names
Of the territories of Arizona and New
Mexico. I do not suppose, though I
know nothing about IL, that the pao-
pie OF the respective territories would
be in favor of a change. I will think
about the matter and If I come to the
conclusion that there Is enough In Il
to justify a change. I win introduce
such a bill as referred to by YOU AT
his moment I am inclined to think
there would be no use doing %
Wishing you good health and suc-
cess. ! am.
Very truly yours.

The Button Holed Loop

Frequently the loops are much more practical for fastening buttons on shirt waists and fancy work than the button holes. They may be made most quickly and of the same size if they are worked over lead pencil or something similar that is round. To do this, hold the pencil in position where the loop is to be worked, and, catching the thread in the material, slip it over the pencil and again in the material. Repeat this, and then work the button hole over these threads. meanwhile keeping the pencil in position The trick will soon be mastered, and the loops expeditiously made.

"I have used the Cuticura Remedies for very bad case of eczema with com pete success. About fifteen or eighteen years ago the disease developed in the shape Of large pinhead on top of my hand. It burned and itched so much that was compelled to show it to doc tor. He pronounced it ringworm, and made very light of it, He gave me a wash and told me to apply it before go- ing to bed and all would be over in the morning. But the next morning my hand was all swollen up and l poulticed 1t. When the doctor came to his office showed him the hand and to my sur prise he told me that he had never ex- perienced such case in his practice and said it was well l poulticed it. After trying his different remedies the disease increased and went up my arms and finally to my thighs and legs generally and finally on my face. The burning. was something terrible. After l had tried this doctor, as l thought, long enough, 1 went to another doctor who had the reputation of being the best in town. He told me it was a bad case of eczema and that it would take quite while to cure it. His medicine checked. the advance of the disease but no fur ther,

HOME MADE QUININE
 HAIR TONIC

The high cost of a good quinine hair tonic prevents thousands of men and women from using such a preparation daily on the hair. This has resulted in the study and investigation of the sub ject by some bright men and women who use quinine hair tonic regularly but who do not care to pay for the ex- pensiye ready-made tonics. They find that by simply mixing one ounce of Beta -Quinol with half a pint of water and half pint of alcohol that they can make more than full pint of a quinine hair tonic of better quality and more beneficial to the hair than any of the widely advertised brands A tonic made as described here will help the hair to become beautiful. glossy, long ana abundant. It tends to prevent dandruff and falling hair and keep the scalp in a healthy condition. This home made tonic is used by women who have most beautiful hair and plenty of it as well as those whose hair and scalp are not in perfect condition. The Beta -Ouinol and alcohol can be procured at any drug store for 75c or soc and thev will make more and better hair tonic than you could buy for s2.O0 in a manufactured state.

The Extra Long Hat Pin

Have you seen the new hat pins known as the 'extra long !'
 Well they are the most fearfully and wonderfully made things imaginable, and look more like implements ofz warfare than dainty feminine conceit But they are invaluable, when it comes to the present style of head gear with the coif- fure with it's myriads of puffs and brads and curls. making the head of huge pro portions, through which the ordinary hat pin has no more show than needle in a hay stack.
 The hat is securely fastened with one of these implements and ones false hair seems more securely pinned on, when they are used.
 The woman who does not possess at least two of the extra long" hat pins, will do well to at once squander a couple of dollars on pair.
