HOW TO CURE ECZEMA
A New Idea That Upsets the Old
Method.

The old method of treating eczema
and similar skin diseases as blood dis
orders is being rapidly superseded by
the new compound called Cadum. This
remedy is applied direct to the affected
parts. thus excluding the air and
starting the healing process at once.
/ The Itching ceases the moment Cadum
: Is applied and the most stubborn
q cases yield To its wonderful curative
powers in a remarkably short time.
Other skin troubles. such a salt
rhenm. psoriasis. acne. herpes, letter
itching piles, blackheads, pimples
eruptions, etc. are also cured quickly
by cadnm, which is sold by all drug
gists ~ ZOE. and 25c box.

Proper Care OF The Piano

In many households there is not
a piece OF furniture that is more
sorely neglected than the piano.
Anyone who has ever studio the
construction Of a pianoforte knows
that its mechanism is most delicate,
intricate and sensitive. 1t is no
wonder, then, that it requires a
great deal of care and suffers Sc
verely from neglect.
Some people think that they are
treating their piano well if they
have it tuned once or twice a year.
II should be tuned at least four
times to prevent loss of pitch, and
should be kept at concert pitch all
the time. To raise or lower it a
halftone means to spoil 1t lrremedl-
ably, say the authorities.
1t is almost as important TO
place the piano well rs 10 keep 1t

Austin Statesman:

&Aetttss 1@<%s>.sst.sss
An effort to awaken a healthy
fear and respect for German eff
ficiency and preparedness for
military operations is exploited
in a pamphlet entitled Our
German Cousins" recently pub
lished in England. From this
pamphlet we learn the follow
ing:
Every male German. no mat
ter what his social status, is
compelled to serve two years
with the colors, though this time
may be shortened to one year if
he is university student or able
to pay for his own equipment
and sustenance. At the end of
his term, he goes into the re-
serves, and there he remains for
hive years, with a few weeks of
active training every summer.
Then he enters the landwehr,
and remains subject to call for a
further period of twelve years.
After that, until he is 40, he be-
longs 10 the landsturm, or last
line OF defense.
The men actually under arms
today number $4,000 On the
outbreak of a war about a mil
lion reseryists would be called 20
the coIors, half being sent to the
front at once and the other half
being held in garrison. Thus
Germany's war front of well
trained men numbers rather
more than a million rifles. In
case this vast army met with
reserves, about l,500, 600 men of
the landwehr would be summon
ed to duty, and if the need arose
actually sent to the front, leay-
ing the landsturm to man the
home garrisons. The result
would be a fighting front of
1900, 600 men, each with at least
two years training to his cred
it.
Arms and munitions for that
number are constantly ready,
and there are plenty Of engineers
artillerists. surgeons, cooks, far
riers and other aids to the fight
ing men on the rolls. Every
physician in Germany is subject
to the call of the general staff;
every clergyman is, ex-officio, an
army chaplain; every horse.
wagon and automobile in the
country has its line in the army
records, and every public official,
great or small. is a cog in the en-
ormous machine.
This story would seem almost
a fanciful romance, bat that its
literal truth was demonstrated
on the outbreak Of the Franco
Prussian war. 1t was that gen
ius on conquest and consolidation
Won Moltke, who invented the
system and proved its terrible
effectiveness. When war came
he had only TO press the button,
the rest was easy. The Germans,
following rigidly the schedule so
carefully and laboriously' pre-
pared for them were almost at
the gates of Paris, before the
French could even formulate a
defense. The Moltke system Of
being in readiness and organiza-
ton is still adhered 10 by the
general military staff today. II

Obeying Orders.

In one OF the companies OF a Wisconsin
militia regiment arc two students OF Law
renee College who are studying for the
ministry While the regiment was at
Camp Douglass this summer, some OF the
boys OF the company thought TO have a
little iun at the expense OF the two minis
ters. When The beer, which some one
had sent to the regiment as a treat. was
to be served, they asked their captain II
the two ministers might serve II.
He said they might. The boys were
jubilant, and served notice OF their new
duty to the two students.
One Of them refused 10 ave anything
to do with It, but the oiher-Pnyate
Keith-look the notice. which read, "The
beer must be served on the grounds, and
no man must get drunk" and SAID he
would obey it.
He went 10 his lieutenant and asked
him il the company might be held al par
ade-res while he served the beer. lie
was assured that II should be done.
Private Keith then rolled the keg up in
front OF his company, knocked out the
bung and LEI the beer out on the ground.
When il had all run out, he turned TO his
lieutenant, gave the salute, and said:
Lieutenant, have served the beer on
the grounds and am sure no man is
drunk"

Murder Will Out.

The old saying that murder will out"
finds awful confirmation in case which
occurred in Norway.
An old recluSe lived near Vardae, in
that country. Specializing in fish, he had
gotten great ri hes, which, runor said,
he had hidden in his house or bnried.
No one lived on his farm except an
old servant girl and Young hiren hand.
One morning the reCluSe went hunting
but did not return, and all efforts to tind
him were in vain. Both servants W re
arrested, but as there was no evidence
against them, they were set free again.
Some years later the form servant
had come into possession OF a ship with
which he took sugar, coffee, tobacco and
other commodities from Russia to Ham
merfest and bought back reindeer meat,
codliver oil, and fish. No one knew
where he had gotten the money, but he
soon became wealthy man.
Meanwhile the sailors tod most Won
derful stories about their master. They
declared tat flock Of screaming birds
was continually lowering over his head,
and that he had once asked sailor if ii
did not seem to him as if all these birds
had human CeS.
AT last he gave himself up to the po-
lice and confessed having murdered the
recluse at Vardae. In some way he had
discovered the old mans treasure, and
in order to possess himself OF it had fol-
lowed him that fatal morning, had shot
him from ambush and buried him al some
remote spot The only witnesses were
a number OF large sea birds, and SEEM
ingly enraged over his dreadful deed they
had followed him ever since.
He also confessed that the birds and
their cries always reminded him OF his
deed. After several years OF this torture
by his conscience he gave himself up 10
the authorities in order to receive his
punishment.

The Road of Life.

The childre n gaze along IFS scetling road.
Knee-deep in May-born flow'rs. and many a
friend
Shelf rlng around their tmid footsteps STOOD
And hid the end
They paced while along the dazzling way
And some among their number fell and died;
Those VINO renamed pressed forward day by day;
The crowd grew wide.
Youth came they diI the worlds best work. and
strove
Glad with the JOY OF strength whicrwarms like
wine
To seize the towering phantoms pleasure love,
And fame divine
Some of them fell. the dear task left undOne,
And some strewed flow'rs and cypress on the
grave,
But soon forgot and wandered saddened on.
Sill strong and brave.
In tn front rank they moved TO meet the foe,
Death waiting where the earth and heavens
meet,
Then in their yens the blood ran thick and slow
And hearts low beat.
These see the end-the duSky form OF death
Ready TO hush them into sleep at last,
And stand aside and watch with failing breath
The world 90 past.
Age may not stay soon silence comes and rest
The tomb the child could see not, and the youth
Rocked not to iind-the refuge that is blest-
At last the truth
