BY REV. JOHN T. THOMAS, JR.

vision. Denver, Colorado.
In Assembly Herald for August:
The facts in Colorado. which is
probably not very different from
many Western states. are these:
There are 1873 places ranging in
population from $50 to 1000 souls
each without Protestant churches OF
any kind 600 of these have no Ro-
manist churches either.) There are
42S other communities of sufficient
Importance to have post offices, but
without any churches. Some places
have 200 and 300 or more people,
with two or three saloons and no
church.
There are whole counties with no
adequate religious work: San Miguel
with over 5000 people in IL places
and only 8 churches in the county;
Lake county, with 4 churches In Lead
Vile. which has $4,000 peopls: Las
Animas county, with IL churches in
Trinidad, where there are 1900 peo-
pie. but only churches for the 49,
900 people. largely Mexican, in all
the rest Of the county; Cheyenne

WHY sALvEs FAIL
TO CURE Eczema
They Clog the Pores-only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Since the old-fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood
has been given up by scientists,
many different salves have been
tried for skin diseases. But it has
been found that these salves only
clog the pores and can not penetrate
to the inner skin below the epider-
mis- where the eczema germs are
lodged.
This-the qualify Of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil OF wintergrcen as
compounded in d. D. d. Prescrip-
ton. After ten years of cure after
cure, the worlds leading skin spe-
cialists have accepted this as the
true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend d. d. d. Prescription at
$1.00 bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we have arranged with the
d. d. ID. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special large trial bottle at rs
cents on a special offer now. This
first bottle ought to convince every
sufferer. and, at any rate, II will
surely take away the itch at once.

Warden lyman took the poaition
that the road was completed and that
he had told several people so and
that that was the reason of taking

Mr.. La Grange was just as conf

and that he certainly had never con-

work planned on the road for the
men to do,
The result of this meeting was that

that there was a good deal more work
to be done under the requisition he

as the county was paying the bills he
should be consulted before the men
were drawn off and the camp broken
up.

expedient to attempt to deal with the
questions of combinations of express COM
panies or telegraph and telephone COM
panies because where such combinations
constitute restraint of trade the Sher-
man act affords ample authority to reach
and prevent Them
Attention is called to the fact that the
bill provides means of ascertaining by
judicial investigation and determination
whether or not bona fide contract pro-
posed to be entered into respecting the ac-
QUESTION of stock or property OF railroads
10 in violation of the prohibitions of the
Sherman act because large investments of
capital are made in reliance upon a SEEM
ing, although possibly wholly illusory,
legality. This provision is held to be of
obvious advantage to the government for
the reason that such an investigation
would be conducted before the contract
became effective.
Bearing upon the provisions affecting
the issue of the stock and bonds, the re-
port takes up the legal side of the ques-
tons involved The bill in that regard is
defended and the report says:
Protection In BiII
These provisions are so framed as not
to prevent the ordinary means of financ-
ing railroad companies, while interposing
an Intellectual protection against the issue
of bonds without adequate consideration.
While it may be objected that the pro-
visions of this act do not 60 far enough
toward regulating the capitalization of
railroad corporations. no candid critic can
fail to admit that they constitute long
step In the direction of esta blishing such
national legislation and supervision as will
prevent the future overissuing of stocks
and bonds by interstate carriers. and that
they go as far as prudent legislation
should go In entering upon this new field
Of national restraint upon issue of stock

Woes OF Hopeful Home Millir1er
Trying To Make Old Hats New
Difficult Task with Styles Changing They Are Each Season
Family Criticism More Than She Could Stand-Tried
In Vain and Then Bought New Hat
NY DOLLY DALRYMPLE.

If there is one season more pathetic
than another it is just the between
times when the home milliner takes out
her last summers straw bonnet and APP
points herself chairman on the ways
and means" committee as to how to
make 1t over for this springs use.
Last year when she bought five hats
she excused her outrageous extravaganza
on the grounds that of course she could
use them the next season, and of course
when the poor creature was thus con-
soling herself she did not know that the
styles would change so radically even to
the very last edge.
Faded faded and horribly ugly!'
said the home milliner as she took from
its receptacle the lovely hat which had
once been a dream in blue tints and
touches of silver and green. Faded, and
no more like the things that are being
worn now than a goat is like haystack.
Oh. what shall I do!'
Then she did what every other woman
would have done; she put on the faded
chapeau and looked herself over in the
mirror wondering how she could ever
have considered it becoming. Anon she
poked the crown and turned the brim
up here and there, and finally decided
that although it was a weird looking OBJ
ject still it might be dyed and accord
ingly she got busy.
BY the time this last operation had
been accomplished the home milliner
was worn to a FRAGILE and was forced
to lie down and recuperate and when
she was sufficiently resuscitated she be-
gan to retrim the last years creation.
She bought some new gold braid and a
lovely collection of foliage and by even
ing she was ready to invite the family to
her "spring opening"
Now what every woman knows is
that criticism from ones own family is
1lotoriously harsh and It is the one time
when you have your real name" told
out in the meeting. but this particular
family was rather arniably inclined and
so they endeavored to temper the wind
to the shorn lamb

kindly, as she turned her head and looked
vacantly out of the window.
Looks kinder motley like to me- said

proudly.
IT thought as nfuch,'' said the candid
young sister, land If you want to know
the truth, think 1t is a perfect mess
At this the home milliner, with tears
In her eyes, fed, and upon returning to
her room brought forth another creation,
Of immense black proportions, which last
summer had been the Joy Of her soul.
