SAVED OLD LADYs HAIR

my mother used to have very bad
humor on her head which the doctors
called an eczema, and for 1t I had two
different doctors. Her head was very
sore and her hair nearly all fell out
In spite Of what they both did. One
day her niece came IN and they were
speaking Of how her hair was falling
out and the doctors did 1t no good.
She says, Aunt, why don't you try
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura ONT
ment?' Mother did and they helped
ner. In six months time the itching,
burning and scaling Of her head was
over and her hair began growing. To-
day she feels much in debt to Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four.
my own case was an eczema in my
feet. As soon as, the cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn and
then they would crack open and bleed.
Then thought would fee to my

Had BLOOD on HIs Coat.

Marshalltown.--Fro Luray, in the
southern part OF the county, comes q
story which had the incident been
known sooner, might have resulted in
some clue that would have lead to the
solution of the triple Hardy murder.
Frank Wickersham, who lives near
Luray, is the bearer Of the story,
which is to the effect that on Monday
morning, June 6, q man, who is pre-.
sumed to have boarded the train at
Melbourne, the nearest station to
Vancleve, the scene of the murder,
was noticed to have blood on his coat,
and that passengers on the train re-
marked about it. At that time, how
ever, no one knew of the murder
which had been committed late the
night before. The man was accom-
panied by a stranger, and the two
paid no attention to passengers about
them. When Wickersham heard OF
the murder he Immediately thought
of the man with the blood on his
coat. 1t is said that the two men
did not leave the train here. but
went on to some point north.

Are Coming.

Des Moines. June 17.-Nine hum
dred bankers were in Des Moines yes
terday morning to attend the twenty
fourth annual convention Of the Iowa
Bankers association, which opened
for q two days session at the Audi
forum. BY evening about 1900 mem-
bers Of the organization had register.
ed.
The convention was called to order
by Acting President L. e. Stevens OF
Des Moines. After the invocation by
the Rev. r. B. H. Bell, rector of st.
Paurs Episcopal church, the visiting
bankers We're welcomed to Des Moines
by Charles H. Martin, president Of
the Des Moines Clearing House as.
ISOLATION. The response was given by
George S. Parker, president Of the
Live Stock National bank of Sioux
City.
Permanent headquarters will be es-
tablished by the association in Des
MOines and secretary will be en-
ployed to devote all of his time to
the business of the organization.
Three Iowa bankers, P. H. Hall Of
Sheldon, w. H. Field of Pennington
and R. NJ. Gwynn of Shenandoah,
were recommended by the committee
for the Office of secretary. The sal
airy was fixed at $2,400.
Better times and an easing up Of
the money market was predicted by
George M. Reynolds, president of the
Continental National bank of Chicago,
who is attending the convention Of
the Iowa Bankers association. He
said there is less pressure for money
than there was when he was here six
months ago, and that retrenchment
seems now to be the order of the day.
"The people seem to understand
the conditions and the situation now
better than they did two months ago.
The bankers are preaching conserva-
tism and discouraging extensive in.
dustrial extensions and speculation.
There need be no alarm, but it is im-
perative that we, though optimistic,
be prepared to head off any string
ency.
Iowa. with its great physical re-
sources and the United States with
its untold ability to produce wealth,
can easily overcome a condition now
confronting the nation. Over specula-
ton, higher living and industrial exc
tensions, with unusual conditions at
fecting crops, have brought on the
unusual demand for money, but can
see no serious trouble in the future.
With the Iowa farmer blowing
and cultivating steadily, the sun max
ing his crops grow and sufficient rain
and moisture to aid it, Iowa can ov-
/ ercome most any financial difficulty

The practical jokers in Panama who
thought 1t would be very funny to
start reports OF a coming earthquake
III that place. and who are said to
have scared at least one person to
death BY these reports. belong to q
class with which, unfortunately, the
law cannot deal according to their
