BABY SCRATCHED
FOR THREE YEARS
Until He Would Bleed - Eczema
Covered His Whole Body and Head
Suffered KeenIy from itching
and Burning -HundredsOf OfDoIlars
Spent on Fruitless Treatments.
CUTICURA CURED HIM
NEVER TROUBLED SINCE

My little grandson when year old
had eczema all over his whole body and
head. Il lasted nearly three years. He
had big sores on his head and the mat
ter would run from them. He suffered
from the itching and burning and would
scratch until he would bleed. He was a
perfect sight. We tried every kind OF
salve and soap but they did no good.
After spending hundreds Of dollars, and
having several doctors. which did him no
good, we saw the Cuticura Remedies adj
vertised and we got some TO see if they
would help him. We used the Cuticlra
Soap to wash him with and then applied
the Cuticura Ointment. They cured
him nicely. He is now five and has
never been bothered with it since. Mrs.

100000 FOR
THE DELAWARE
Philadelphia congressman Win
First Fight For ApprO-
priatiOn

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 16-Defi-
mite measures to obtain justice for the
Delaware River was resolved upon by
the entire Philadelphia delegation at a
meeting called by Congressman II. II.
Bingham in the House Office Building
yesterday afternoon.
1t was decided that all the members
would fight shoulder to shoulder for
the Delaware and not "go along" with
anything and everything proposed by
the House leaders unless Philadelphia
gets her just due.
one result of the quiet campaigning
that the delegation has been doing is
the announcement that there will be
little trouble about the 100000 main
tenance item for the Delaware in the
Rivers and Harbors bill.
This fact was stated by one Of the
Philadelphia Representatives at the
meeting this afternoon.
II was also announced that informa-
tion has been obtained that the Rivers
and Harbors bill would carry recon-
mendations for very small appropra-
tions. only a few surveys VIII be
provided for and some small amounts
will be allotted for carrying on un-
completed work. The Delaware. how
ever. is pretty sure Of the 100000 for
maintenance.
u has been learned that the Della
ware and Chesapeake Canal bill has
boon buried for some time In the pigeon
holes OF the Canal COMMITTEES. This
committee cannot make any appropria-
ton for the Chesapeake and Delaware
Canal. The main purpose Of having
IL in that committee was TO bury Il.
The only hope of having anything done
is to have the bill in the hands Of the
Rivers and Harbors Committee.

Mission Meeting at Grace Church.

About thirty members were present
at the meeting of the Woman's Home
Missionary Society at Grace Church
yesterday afternoon. As 1t was the
Christmas meeting, the program was
varied by having each member give
a suitable scripture verse and sentence
prayer. The principal feature of the
afternoon was the reading by the re-
cording secretary. Mrs. Ella Semple.
of the report Of the local delegate. Mrs.
Hough, of Union Church. of the Ma
tional Convention at Los Angeles last
October. The report gave the ad-

reduction of its capital stock, from
course Of it's business, to $3,954, 900,
and for a ratable distribution among
all it's stockholders of its entire hold
ings OF the railway stOcks-$118,-
12420O Great Northern and $153,75
400 Northern Pacific, par values-as
resultant surplus. At special meet
ing of the stockholders of the Secur-
ties companp, convened for the pur-
pose on April Fl, 1904, this reduction
of stock and distribution of assets
were ordered by the votes of about
threefourths of it's stock.
The expectations of Mr.. Hill and
his associates from acquisition by
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
of Burlington stock have been amply
!, realized. The arrangement has been
followed 10y large development of
trade along and upon each OF the
three railways; by a great expan-
sion in the volume Of traffic Of each;
and, Notwithstanding considerable re-
duction in tariff rates, voluntarily
made by very substantial gains in
Of foreign and domestic trade of the
country, and especially for develop
ment OF the tier OF states running
along the International boundary
line, from the Great Lakes to the Pa
c:fic coast, the Burlington purchase
will beyond question prove to have
been an event of the first magni-
tude. 1t promises also to be large
ly profitable to the purchasers. Mr.
Hill has been a pioneer in the de-
vising and adopt on of standards for
railway location, construction and op-
Grafton, which have revolutionized
the industry of rail transportation,
and reduced it's cost to level much
below that which any foreign coun-
try as been able to reach. He
preached the gospel of low grades,
heavy power, large capacity cars and
big trainloads at a period when, to
most railway men, those expressions
were meaningless or even visionary.
HIS theory has always been, that
movement of large volumes of traf-
fic at low rates is most profitable
to railways as we'll as to patrons.
His ief ambition has been to haul
upon his railways a bigger traffic,
at lower rates, and yet whit profit
to his companies, than any Of his
competitors could on theirs.
Mr. Hill IS man OF much reading,
on serious subjects, and none is bet
ter informed on those in any way
concerned with trade or transporta-
ton. He is a lover and connoisseur
of the arts. AS collector of fine
pictures and precious stones he Is
surpassed by few, it any, of his coun-
trymen. His gallery Of paintings OF
the modern French school, in his St.
Paul residence, is one of the most
important in that class on either con-
'inent. He has been frequent and
large giver of none for educational
and charitable purposes. st. Paul
seminary, in St. Paul, an institution
for the complete training, in this
country, of young men for the Rom
an Catholic priesthood, was wholly
built and endowed by him, although
not himself processing that faith.
Ohter institutions of learning in the
Northwest have also benefited large
ly by his munificence, notSbly Ham
line university, also at St. Paul.

THE BEST TARIFF
EVER ENACTED

The American consul ut ChemnitZ
describes the metho of getting ar ound
the higher duCieS on cotSon hosiery
Imposed by the Aidrich tariff. The
great bulk of the trade has Ecen in
stockings retailing here at p cents a
pair. The problem was to maintain
that price i'll spite of the advance in
duty. The importers have slightly
. lesscned their margin of profits. The
manufactures have done the same,
and are also turning out styles OF hose
which are slightly inferior in duro-
bility and Workmanship to those hith-
erto supplied to the American - cent
trade. The American importers, SAYS
the consul, will continue to buy freely
in the ChcmniIZ market until the home
manufacturers shall be able to offer
better goods at the current prices.
This must be cruel disappointment
to those manufacturers. They had
taken it for granted that they would
have the American consumer at their
mercy through the tariff legislation
which Congress gave them in the face
of universal PROTESTS, 1t appears that
they ar" not yet rid of German cumpc-
tition. But while. their hopes have not
