IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA.
Torturing Humor - Hoped Death Would Eno Fearful Suffering.
In Despair; Cured by cuticura.

Words cannot describe the terrible eczema 1 suffered with. It broke out on my head and kept spreading until it covered my whole body. was almost solid mass of sores from head to foot. l looked more like a piece of raw beef than a human be- ing. The pain and agony endured and pus oozed from the great sore on my scalp, from under my finger nails, and nearly all over my body. My ears were so crusted and swollen was afraid they would break off Every hair in my head fell out. 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 I got worse and worse. My condition was awful. l did not think l could live, and wanted death to come and end my frightful sufferings
 'In this condition my mother-in-law begged me to try the Cuticura Rem edies. I said I would, but had no hope of recovery. But oh, what blessed re- lief experienced after applying Cuti cura 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. 1 would bathe with warm water and Cuticura Soap. then apply the Ointment freely. l also took Cuti- cura Resolvent for the blood. In a short time the sores stopped running. the flesh began to heal, and I knew was to get we'll again. Then the hair on my head began to grow, and in short time l was completely cured. I wish l could tell everybody who has eczema to use Cuticura. Mrs. Wm. Hunt, 135 Thomas St, Newark, N. J., Sept. 2S, 1905"

"BoBBY" WAS so NERVOUS
He Was Not to Be Agitated, Even by
 "Percy, Dear"

It was moving day for the summer colony along the North shore of Mas sachusetts. On the morning train from Rockport, bearing many we'll known Bostonians to their town houses for the winter, rode stormy old gentleman from the west. At Pride's crossing a family of three father, mother and daughter-boarded the train, bearing respectively the family treasures: One pet poodle, one gray cat in a blue blanket, and one travelling clock in much worn leath- CT case. The party had no sooner found seats across from the western CT. than it became apparent that the excitement of boarding the train had caused a commotion among the pets The cat was chided for talking aloud Calm yourself, Bobby" said his mis- tress. Be yourself once more-we are now on our way home" Where upon Bobby grew calm.
 The poodle became restless in the company of his master on a seat in front and signified his yearning for Bobby's company by climbing up the back of the seat and casting goo-goo eyes at the Tabby The sympathetic mistress understood at once and said:
 You may come over here and sit with us, Percy, dear, on one condition you must not agitate Bobby"
 This was too much for the stormy westerner. With loud snort he reared up. paved his handbag from the rack above his head, and pranced into coach ahead

HEADING OFF THE CALLER.
Plan for Getting Rid of Life insur ance Agents Not Patented.

The bell rang three times. and the man at the desk hastily reached for a flannel bandage. This he put round his neck. Then he arranged a sling in which he put one arm, disarranged his hair, drew down the corners of his mouth, got out of his chair, and pain fully limped toward the door
 'Mr. Jones?" inquired the we'll dressed caller, who opened it at that moment.
 The man with the bandage half suppressed a groan.
 Yes, that's my name. What can do for you?"
 You appear to be suffering" said the intelligent caller.
 "Suffering!" returned the other. Do you think I'm doing this for fun? But what is your business, sir?"
 "Er-pardon me-" stammered the caller, "I think I'll drop in some other time-eh?"
 Its some trouble" soliloquized the man with the bandage, as he removed the paraphernalia and returned to his desk. But it is really the quickest way to get rid of these life insurance agents. That man will never trouble me again "-London Tit-Bits.

THE question of the captaincy
of the high school foot ball
team for this year has at last
been settled. Faculty Direc-
tor of Athletics George F.. Clukey
stated this morning that in a few
days temporary field captain
would be appointed by Coach F. G..
Kennedy, and as soon as enough
games had been played to entitle a
man to hold the place permanently
a regular election would be held,
according to the rules of the ath-
letic association and a permanent
captain would be elected by the
boys. Mr.. Clukey states that never
before in the history of the school
has there not been at least one
man return to school who had won
his honorary letter
George Varnell, sporting editor
of the Evening Chronicle, will
again be coach of the foot ball

NEED OF ATHLETIC
FIELD

Never before was the South Gen.
trail high school SO badly in need
Of an athletic field as at the pres
ent time. Director of Athletics
George r. CIukey stated this MORN
ing that II was found that the
grounds east Of Recreation park
were too rough even to practice on
and that the team will have to
practice at Mantle indefinitely.
The green grass is very slippery,
and when the team was using
those same grounds two years ago
there was hardly man on the
team that was not Iimping around
with sprained ankle or wrench
ed knee from running into water
MIGRANTS, benches, trees and nu-
merous other decorations around
the park grounds. TIE space for
the team to practice in is limited
and hardly permits the boys to go
at full speed, as they have to keep
on the lookout all the time from
stepping into holes and running
into distractions.

RUN
MADE BY
STEAMER

The big White Steamer touring
car, 1910 model, of Baender & Bieg-
Ter at E6 Riverside avenue. made
a sensational run last Sunday, COW
ering a distance of 65 miles and
used only 81 cents worth of kero-
sene in the trip. This makes the
expense of running a White Steam
er at little below cent a mile.
The car, which is a new 1910
model is a five passenger touring
car, and Mr.. Baender states that
it has established new record on
the cost of operation.
The 1910 White Steamers will
be made in two models, and in
addition to the kerosene burner a
slight change has been made in the
engine design whereby the pumps
are driven. from an Independent
eccentric of the engine crank shaft
instead of from the valve, mechan-
ism, thereby eliminating the noise
caused by the pumps.
