at have used the Cuticura Remedies
for very bad case of eczema with COM
plete success. About fifteen or eighteen
wears 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 q
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 I poulticed
it. 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 I 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 had
tried this doctor, as 1 thought, long
enough. went to another doctor who
had The reputation Of being the best in
town. He told me it was bad case OF
eczema and that it would take quite a
while to cure it. His medicine checked
the advance of the disease but no fur

Besides the killed effects, piaits are
introduced in sections alternating with

Jumper effects are strong features and
may always be relied upon as being
becoming. Short sleeves ana low nechs

the requirements of the small child.
The one-piece princess, for example,
with wide panel front and buttons ex-
tending along the side, makes charm

WORTHY OF CONFIDENCE
An Offer Backed Up by One

We will either cure you of consti-

thing be more fair and secure for you.

HEALTHY AUTO SHOW.
Exhibitors at New York
Rushed with Orders.

New York, Jan. with the auto
mobile show at the Grand Central Pal
ace we'll under way, the men interested
are decidedly hopeful regarding the
outlook for the year. Their optimism
is due not only to the feat that the at
tendances have been of record breaking
size but to the business transacted.
Very few of the exhibitors have any
complaint to make. Ordinarily few
sales are recorded until the halfway
mark has been reached. But this year
the public began to purchase cars on
the opening evening. and the volume
of business has gro On steadily.
Opening on New aear's eve, the cur
rent exhibition has been very we'll at
tended by society people who remained
in town over the holidays. Tomorrow,
it is predicted, will see the return of
many who spent the last half of the
week in the country. These will add to
the buying portion of the palace visit
ors. That this is to be a small year is
assured, but the expensive models APP
pear likely to be as popular as ever
with those who can afford to indulge
their tastes.
A feature thus far has been the sales
of cars actually on exhibition, the pur-
chasers evidently believing that the
show models were likely TO give bet
ter satisfaction than those taken from
stock.

REFUSES OFFER OF $4,000

Los Angeles, Jan. 4.-James j. JEFF
fries, the retired and undefeated heavy
weight champion of the world, is the
only hope of the white race now. The
welI-meant offers of Jim COrbett, Tom
Sharkey and Bob FitzsimmOns TO give
battle to Jack johnson, the negro cham
piOn, are appreciated to the full extent
of their true worth, but it is to the
mighty Jefrries, who has never known
the sting of defeat, that the American
sporting public is now looking to for
succor from embarrassing position.
Jeffries need not go to foreign lands
in quest of a fortune. The big fellow
may live, train and fight in his home
city and then receive mort money for
his services than any boxer was ever
paid before in the history of the ring
T. ]. McCarey, matchmaker and half
owner of the Pacific Athletic club of
this city, tonight duplicated the recent
offer made to Jeffries by Jack Wren.
the millionaire bookmaker of Mel
bourne Australia. Mr.. McCarey's offer,
pared down to an actual basis, is as fol-
lows
$4,000 as JefRries' End.
He will give Jeffries $4,000 for the
retired champions end on a win, lose
or draw basis. The hour that Jeffries
signifies his willingness TO talk bust
ness Mr. McCarey will post $4,000 with
a local newspaper to guarantee his
ability to swing the Johnson part of
the big match.
Jefries when informed of the local
offer reiterated his oft-made statement
that he would never re-enter the ring
but added significantly: IF 1 ever do
fight it won't be in this country"
There is every evidence that the big
fellow is doing some pretty deep think
ing these days. Where a week ago JEFF
was wont to resent any talk of his re-
turning to the ring he now rubs .Iis
massive right hand across his face in
thoughtful manner and says:
That's a heap O. money, amt it,
It's jes' like tossing off a hundred thou
sand dollars"
Intimates That He May Fight.

fries said:
IF 1 fight in Australia I will max,
long tour of the world first, stopping
in London, Paris and all the larg
cities. I wouldn't care if the trip tool

Despite Jim's strong insistence tina
he has no intention of fighting John
son., he obviously is at least becoming
reconciled to the possibility of such al
event If Jeffries has studied arithme
tic he has overlooked the dollars an
cents section. for the big boy has lit
tie idea of the value of money Hi
real friends have impressed upon hi
mind, though. the fact that he is pass

pion is thinking, thinking, thinking.

CHALLENGES HEAVIES.
Hart Would Fight Kaufman
or Schreck.

Lexington. KY, Jan. S.-Marvin Hart
today telegraphed James J. Jeffries at
Los Angeles, asking Jeffries to arrange
a fight for him with Al Kaufman, Mike
Schreck or any other heavy weight who
is considered in Jack Johnson's class.
Hart says the size of the purse is not
the main object, as he desires to whip
some good man who is regarded as a
legitimate challen ger of Johnson, so he
can get nearer the champion.
Hart will not decide what he will do
about the $4,000 offer from San Fran
cisco to go to Australia and fight John
son until he hears from Jeffries. Hart
says he will tackle any of the men who
have challenged Johnson.
