YOUNGSTER IS GREAT RUNNER
Twelve-Year-Old New York Boy Goes
Six Miles in 80 Minutes.

Friends of 12-year-old John Burnett
is not only the fastest runner for his
age in Westchester county, but also
the fastest runner of his years in the
world. In a race held recently the
youngster ran six miles over a course
laid out near White Plains in the re-
markable time of 80 minutes. He de-
feated field of ten other runners, and
at times outdistanced teams that were
following him around the course.
Young Burnett has been taking part
in middle distance races for a year,
and his trainer, Fred Piggott, expects
great things of his young prodigy.
Burnett was formerly a newsboy, with
a route extending out into the coun-
try, and he made it a practice, after
delivering his papers of running home,
a distance of two miles.
His ability as a runner was recog-
nized at an athletic meet held in the
summer of 1907, and then Piggott took
him in hand and gradually developed
the youngster. The boy is the son of
Andrew Burnett, teamster, and the
father thinks his son will be heard
from in the next few years.
When the boy made this great rec
ord six stop watches were held or
him. The distance has been carefully
measured and was found to be full six
miles. Young Burnett is scheduled
IN take mart in nine races this winter
and in the early spring.

Interesting Items Gathered In the
GOplaes' State
Tax On Autos Too HIGH.


Mankato.-The Mankato Automo-
bile club held a special meeting to
consider automobile legislation. The
club is in favor of the bill before the
legislature recommended by the state
automobile association, but it believes
that the tax of 81 a horsepower is too
high. 1t voted to ask the legislature
to reduce this by half, and the Blue
Earth county delegation will be ask
ed to do what it can to have this
amendment passed.
Communications were received from
the Rochester and Austin associations
opposing the high tax. The Austin
association favors q tax proportional
to the weight of the machines, $40 for
all machines under $500 pounds
weight and S. for each 500 pounds ad-
ditional weight.
The Mankato club did not favor this
plan as well as the tax based on horse
power. The club voted to donate 5000
toward improving two of the roads to
LAKE resorts, provided the farmers will
assist. 1t also took up the matter

Whole Body Mass of Raw, Bleeding,

Would End Fearful Suffering.
In Despair; Cured by cuticura.

it covered my whole body.
was almost solid mass Of sores from
head to foot. 1 looked more like
piece of raw beef than a human be-
ing. The pain and agony endured
seemed more than could bear Blood
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 I
was afraid they would break OF.
Every hair in my head fell out. I
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 got worse and worse. My
condition was awful. I did not think
I could live, and wanted death to
come and end my frightful sufferings.
I'm this condition my mother-in-law
begged me to try the Cuticura Rem
edies. I said / would, but had no hope
of recovery. But oh, what blessed re-
lief l experienced after applying Cuti-
cura Ointment. 1t cooled the bleeding
and itching flesh and brought me the
first real sleep I had had in weeks. 1t
was as grateful as ice to a burning
tongue. 1 would battle with warm
water and Cuticura Soap, then apply
the Ointment freely. also took Cuti-
cura Resolvent for the blood. In a
short time the sores stopped running,
the flesh began to heal, and knew I
was to get well again. Then the hair
on my head began to grow, and in a
short time was completely cured.
I wish I could tell everybody who has
eczema to use Cuticura. Mrs. VIM.

Exceptional
Equipment

Of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments of its chemists have
rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, in all of it's
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
beneficially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
AS there is only one genuine Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA and as the gen.
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the
genuine to get its beneficial effects.
A knowledge of the above facts enables
one to decline limitations or to return them
if, upon viewing the package, the full name
of the California Fig Syrup Co. is not found
printed on the front thereof.
