An itching humor covered both my
hands and got up over my wrists and
even up to the elbows. The itching and
burning were terrible. My hands got
all scaly and when I scratched, the
surface would be covered with blisters
and then get raw. The eczema got so
bad that 1 could not move my thumbs
without deep cracks appearing. 1 went
to my doctor, but his medicine could
only stop the itching. At night I suf-

Cats of New CoIors.

Many triumphs in original color were
seen at the great champion show of cats
at the Crystal palace.
With the modern cat beauty is to a
large extent skin deep-that is to say,
coat and color reckon high, and high
value is set on certain combinations of
color which have only recently been
achieved in their full measure. The most
artistic of all modern cats is the blue
Russian, of which Lady Decies has the
pick and won most of the prizes. Her
best exhibits are of a level light blue
tint. absolutely unlocked by any other
shade, and they possess that second de-
sideratum-a copper colored eye, which,
to the regret of all cat breeders, is apt
a fade into the common green with age.
In the case of the white smooth haired
cat the eye should be blue, and such an
animal as the unbeaten Fulmer Snow
storm is revelation in the breeders
power to get the pure, colors he seeks.
Again. the silver tabbies, whose virtue
depends on the blackness of the lines
and the clearness of the marking be-
tween them, are preferred either with
golden or green eyes. But to judge by
two of the best-Miss Cope's Roiall
Dame and Mrs. Slingsby's Don Pasquale
of Thorpe-the, gold is preferred;
popular shade in rough haired cats, the
eve matches the coat very closely. But
to the public, who do not deal in special
color the smooth haired Russian blues
with the copper eyes are the most re-
markable example of modern color
schemes and the highly artistic cat
Some of these are worth ESQ, though
the best are descended from a recent
and blemshed progenitor picked up for
song in a shop in Fulham.-London

a woman who is an able cook will have
more chances to marry than one who
is not. Unfortunately, men are disposed
to look for beauty as well, and beautiful
women are seldom good cooks. - Alge-

Most Of us have learned by eNperlence
that scattered individual charity OF this
sort is not only improbable and unwise,
but that it is often harmful to the person
who receives it. Such experience has
led many people to make the rule never
to give money, clothing, nor food to any
individual with whom they are not per
sonally acquainted. Though this has
long been the rule of many people, / am
sure it will bear repetition; for there are

asks for if they possibly can.

most of the organized charities III our
great cities are not permanent lnstliu-
lions When the spirit Of real charity
becomes more widely prevalent these
cities will take the necessary measures
to do away with all poverty that IS pre-
ventable. Most poverty is an unneces-
sary evil, just as much as tuberculosis;
SMALLPOX or yellow fever; or PAD
streets and bad drains. Such pover3y
can be abolished when all our people
awake to their duty; just as these as.
eases can be abolished by lntellsen5
preventive measures, or our streets ana
Sewerage can be improved by an efhcleht
city government. =, -. -
