CURED ITCHING HUMoR.
Big, Painful Swellings Broke and Did
Not Heal-Suffered 8 Years.
Tortures Yield to Cuticura.

Little black swellings were scat
tered over my face and neck and they
would leave little black scars that
would itch so l couldn't keep from
scratching them. Larger swellings
would appear and my clothes would
stick to the sores. Invent to a doctor,
but the trouble only got worse. By
this time it was all over my arms and
the upper part Of my body in swellings
as large as a dollar. 1t was SO pain
full that / could not bear to lie on my
back The second doctor stopped the
swellings, but when they broke the
places would not heal. ! bought set
Of the Cuticura Remedies and in less
than a week some of the places were
nearly well. I continued until ! had
used three sets, and now am sound
and well. The disease lasted three

The Practical Joker.

We suppose there must be some quail
ity OF fun" in playing practical jokes.
We rather doubt It. to be sure. but we
admit our misgivings to be inconclu-
sive, and we shall not urge them ex-
haustively. Ever since shem Jerked 4
chair from beneath Noah and bumped
the old gentleman's head against the
wall-much to the delight OF the animals
and things around and about the ark
the practical 1okers have been with US.
They go on forever. IT appears. much
after the fashion Of the boat-rockers,
the people who play with unloaded guns,
and so forth.
But while we concede the possibility
Of a practical joke being funny. It sorely
puzzles US to understand. nevertheless.
Just the precise nature Of the fun ap-
pertaining and attaching 70 some OF
them. There IS that Atlanta man, for
instance, who playfully pinned a pla-
card on a neighbor's desk the other day,
setting forth the alleged fact that the
said neighbor was sojourning for a Pc
riod in the state lunaue asylum. The
Joker thought It was funny, as also,
doubtless. did a number OF visitors who
happened 70 see it-albeit a fraction
Of the latter possibly failed to think it
so very amusing. BY and by, the Jokee
came home, and waxed exceeding wroth,
and slapped the joker's face-playfuIIy
and jokingly enough. perhaps. But while
the joker could play Joke, he. seemingly.
could not take one-as often happens,
We might mention. incidentally-so he
procured his gun and shot said jokee
through the heart; whereupon jokee fell
down and gave up the ghost
The natural and philosophical conclu-
sion is that the joker-nOw in jail charg-
ed with murder-is tickled to death in
contemplation Of the great success at
tending his truly grotesqus and hilarious
performance. How very. very funny it
must be to reflect that his victim is dead
and beyond the reach Of other practi-
cal jokers Of possibly more superb re-
sourcefulness than he! Really. it-hal
ha!-must be excruciatingly funny: not
only to the murderer. but TO the wife
and babies left 10 worry along without
the dead mans help and love.
Yes. indeed! This state Of things must
be awfully funny-but. not being practi-
cal jokers, We really are too dense TO
appreciate It. we fear. II would appear
well within the range Of the reasonable
to suspect that one might have more fun
along other and less strenuous lines. But
we do not know. and, as we said in the
beginning, we shall essay no dogmatic
assertions in respect Of the same. The
practical joker is a puzzle. and we are
unable accurately 10 fathom him. But
that he gets much amusement from his
cavorting we must suspect TO be true;
II he did not he surely would learn
some sense somewhere along the line.
Seemingly he does no. however.
