THE FIRST BUTTERFLIES.

When this world was created the
earth had a soft cloak of green. the
prairies had beautiful flowers, the for.
ests, the seas. everything had some
thing to beautify It except the noun
tains.
The Great Spirit thought a long
time. AT last he made a great num-
Der OF sparkling stones. He hid these
In the seams of the rocks.
Now" he thought, when men dig
into the mountains they will find
these stones. Then they will love the
mountains also.
The little stones were not content
ed. When the gentle south wind blew
over them singing of the beauties OF
the earth. they loved to go and see
for themselves They begged the
Great Spirit for permission.
Yes he said. you may; take
good care OF them" he said TO the
south wind"
So the stones stirred with life and
lifted themselves on many colored
wings. Joyously they futtered away
on the south wind.

DEACON SUCCUMBS
TO BULLET WOUND
Sequel to Row In Providence
Negro Baptist Church

Providence, April ia bullet
fired into his head during a church
row caused the death last night of
Nelson Morgan, senior deacon of the
Olney Street Negro Baptist church.
The shooting on March 16 was the
elimination of a long continued hos
tility between rival factions of the
church. Morgan had gone into the
church to prepare against an invasion
by the minister and opposing faction.
Sexton Robert Russell, a member of
the faction supporting the minister,
tried to get into the church, but could
not. After arming himself, Russell
returned to the church and ordered
the door opened.
The order was partly complied with
and a scuffie followed. in WHICH two
shots were fired by Russell, one of
which took effect in Morgan's head,
over the left eye.

ULTt MATUM ON BEEF
Situation Is Forced by the Boston
Board of Health

Boston, April 11.-Unless the meat
packing concerns of Boston attempt to
bring about a settlement of their con-
troversy with the Boston board Of
health relative to the disposition Of
meat condemned on account of tuber-
culosis, the board announces that it
will order the meat destroyed.
Under the law of 1908, the flesh of
animals who have suffered from tuber-
culosis is condemned. The health
board officially believes that the law is
unfair and that the meat is not in
fected and should not be condemned.
The board desires the meat dealers to
have the courts pass upon the law as
it now stands or else get relief from
the legislature.
The board had permitted the meat
dealers to place in their refrigerators
meats which had been condemned,
and it was not until dealers removed
some such meat for sale that the board
was forced to take action.

ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN.
Not a Blood Disease - Cured by
Oil of Wintergreen Compound.

For many years eczema was
supposed to be a blood disease
and was enormously treated as
such, but now the best authorities
agree that eczema is only a skin
disease and must be cured thru
the skin. The eminent skin spe-
cialist, DIR. ID. ID. Dennis, first dis
covered the eczema germ and his
was quickly taken up in
both Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at
the same time heal the skin, DIR.
Dennis compounded oil of winter
green, thymol, glycerine, etc. The
remedy is a liquid, not a mere
salve, hence IL sinks right into the
pores of the skin. Washing with
this oil of wintergreen compound
seems to take the itch away at
once; soon the scales drop away
and the disease disappears. J. NJ.
