NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

my little son, boy Of five, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try a certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At
the time I was induced to try Cuti-
cura he was so bad that I had to cut
his hair off and put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on him on bandages, as it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
Of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass Of
sores. The bandages used to stick to
his skin and in removing them it used
TO take the skin of with them, and
the screams from the poor child were
heartbreaking. began to think that
he would never get wen, but after the
second application of Cuticura Oint-
ment began to see signs of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced to
dry up. His skin peeled off twenty
times, but it finally yielded to the
treatment Now can say that he is
entirely cured, and a stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
is to-day, twelve years or more since
the cure was effected. Robert Wattam,

Trees Hide Approaching Cars.

Upton, Ind.-Six persons were kill
ed outright and a dozen injured seri-
ously in head-on collision between a
north-bound limited" passenger car
and south-bound freight car on the
line of the Indiana Traction Co. at
Ressler Crossing, near this city.
A clump of trees hid the approaching
cars, which were going at high speed,
and they came together at a curve.
The freight car plowed through the
front of the limited, demolishing the
smoker.
The south-bound freight car overran
its stopping place. The motorman
had orders to wait at the first stop
north of the crossing. it is said, but
overran that point, thinking he could
make another switch, and ran into
the north-bound limited.
The motorman and conductor on the
freight car jumped and were not in
jured.
Under the debris were found the
dead, all of whom were in the front
car.
The motorman of the limited is said
to have been the most careful man on
the road.
His conductor had stepped out of
the car just in time to escape the
crash. The seat behind him was re,
duced to splinteTs.

THUGS ROB MEN OF $4,000
TWO PITTsRURG BROTHERS ARE
HELD UP AT CHICAGO.
Merchants Were on Way to Wisconsin
to Buy Tobacco When Robbed
$500 Diamond Gone.

Chicago. Harry w. and Max
c. Chotiner of the Pittsburg to-
bacco distributing firm of H. w. Choti-
ner & Brother, incorporated, were held
up and robbed of $4,000 in money
and a two-carat diamond shirt stud
valued at $500 at Quincy and Jefferson
street last night. The hold-up men
are still at large.
The brothers were on their way
from Twelfth and Halsted streets to
the Brevoort hotel, where they are
stopping. Being strangers in the city,
they lost their way. While walking in
Quincy street 100 feet east of Jeffer-
son they were seized from behind by
two men. Max, who carried the money
In his inside coat pocket, was hurled
into vacant lot and pinned down by
his assailant, while his brother en-
gagged in a struggle with the other
highwayman on the sidewalk.
In the struggle Harry was robbed Of
his diamond. Gaining his freedom by
wriggling out of his coat, he declares
he ran down the street shouting "Mur-
der" Police" Help" continuing to
the Union depot, several blocks away,
where he met policeman. When the
policeman reached the scene of the
robbery he found Max lying in the lot
in a semi-conscious condition.
When Max revived he said that after
he bad been knocked down by one rob-
Der another attacked him, knocking
the breath out of him. The money
was then wrested from his pocket, and
the highwaymen ran.
The Chotiner brothers tried to de-
posit the money in the First National
bank, but decided to carry 1t, as 1t
would be impossible to get the money
out of the bank until today. They had
intended to leave Chicago last night
for Janesville, Wis, to complete deal
for $4,000 worth Of tobacco.
