Philadelphia has added another
promising little fighter to her list
through the performance OF Tommy
Houck against Jimmy Carroll, Of Cal

the Olympic Athletic Club, New York,

BOY TORTURED BY ECZEMA

when my boy was six years old, he
suffered terribly with eczema. He
could neither sit still nor lie quietly in
bed, for the itching was dreadful He
would irritate spots by scratching
with his nails and that only made
them worse. A doctor treated him
and we tried almost everything, but
the eczema seemed to spread. 1t
started in small place on the lower
extremities and spread for two years
until 1t very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.
Finally l got Cuticura Soap, Cuti-
cura Ointment and Cuticura Pills and
gave them according to directions.

enteenth year and he has never had
a return of the eczema.

He Amused the Cubs.

A negro attached to an African hunt
ing party met with curious adven-
ture. says an English paper. Wander
ing one day from camp, he surprised
two lion cubs at play and thoughtless-
w commenced to amuse them. He was
only too successful. The big cubs gam
boiled fearlessly about him and to his
dismay refused to desist when he
wished to leave them.
Realizing the danger to which he
would be exposed should the mother
appear, he began to run, but the cubs
refused to be shaken off and in their
play scratched his legs in fearful
fashion.
That the creatures were thoroughly
enjoying themselves was evident from
their manifestations of delight, and
before long their unusual cries brought
a lioness leaping to the spot.
Trembling in every limb, the negro
faced the growing animal, while the
cubs continued to jump up at him.
eager for further caresses. The en-
ragged lioness moved round uneasily
in a circles man and beast keeping
their eyes steadily on each other. Sew
eral times the Honess crouched to
spring, but the man, from fear, never
shifted his gaze.
At length, after what seemed an age,
when the negro was ready to drop
from exhaustion the animal suddenly
called her subs away and disappeared
into the surrounding scrub.

Old Dreams Exploded.

Another truth is this-that modern

that genius must be associated with vice.

Gently that low morals not only accom-
panied great talent, particularly in art,
but that it was a necessary part Of in

men reasoned concerning some Of or
poets. such as Poe and Byron: so It was
believed that no one could be a musician
who was not a "Bohemian''-a strange
word, meaning almost anything-and the
Latin quarter in Paris. where the paint
ers used to congregate during their stu
dent days had a name for horrors Whtch
novelists used to love to chronicle. Now
all that Is exploded. Great poets like
Tennyson and Browning and Longfellow
have shamed the Byronic craze into 81
lence and contempt. Great musicians like
Stainer and Dykes have lifted music away
from the coarse associations into which 1t
was once cast and into which some cheap
modern would-be leaders, seeking to ex-
plot the music of Richard Strauss would
fam drag 1t again. Thank God for it, we

Above the Golden Rule.

Men often speak Of the golden rule,
which constitutes the central point in this
lesson. as If it were the highest peak in
the teaching Of Christ. 1t is not The
words OF Jesus and His apostles lay down
the far higher principle Of vicaric US sacri-
fee. The life Of Jesus far transcends the
golden rule. That merely asked that the
other man be treated as we'll as one
would like to be treated in his place But
the law OF the cross stands for the sacri-
flee Of self for the sake of another.
On the golden rule basis, however, So
c.ety may solve all it's pr blems. This
is the doctrine of the square deaf
equal rights for all and special privileges
for none. The temperance question, which
the international committee cites specific
ally for treatment this week, is to come
to final issue not on the basis Of chemi-
cal tests and exhibits of human tissue
diseased by alcohol, but on the ground of
fairness to the other man. The man who
lives by the golden rule cannot permit
his fellow man to be debauched in mind
and body, with a heritage OF weakness
bequeathed to his children. He closes I'D
the liquor traffic because he wants to
practice the principle, Therefore all
things whatsoever we would that men
should do to you, do We even SO to them:
for this is the law and the prophets.
