BABY'S SKIN TORTURE

when our baby was seven weexs
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat. but which gradually
grew worse. We called in a doctor.
He said 1t was eczema and FROM that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in AtcAison
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands wJge solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for Him.
We had to tie his little hands, to
keep him from scratching. He neyer
knew what 1t was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until (he
was cured. He kept us awake all
hours Of the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right think.
Finally I got a set of the Cuticur(a
Remedies and l am pleased to say
we did not use all of them until h9
was cured. We have waited a yearN
and a half to see If it would return
but It never has and to-day his skin
Is clear and fair as 1t possibly could
be. / hope Cuticura may save some
one else's little ones suffering and
also their pocket-books. John Leason,

taken the VOWS Of the Vedante faith. Although
closely secluded. they are permitted to attend the
daily services that are held in the temple.
Strangely enough, the Hindus in charge do not
minister to those Of their own faith, but cater
to Americans, and particularly to those OF wealth.
They have a society, known as that of the en-
listed members. They the ones who keep
the bills paid and the ones who attend the lee
lures that are given. A prominent member Of
the firm that operates the emporium is said to
have become an enlisted member recently. He
also lives in the temple. along with the swamis
and their neophytes.
Once every year the swamis and their band
make pilgrimage to place in the Santa Clara
valley known as the San Antoine valley, not more
than 20 miles from Mount Hamilton and the Lick
observatory. In that secluded nook they remain
for a month, going through their medtations or
yoga, as they are known The swamis say the
faith was first established in the United States
some Is years ago and in San Francisco ten

@iGy's Himdu Temple

The city, It appears, is honored by having
built quite recently the first Hindu temple in the
western world, or, to be more exact, in the Uni
ted States San Francisco letter to the Port
land Oregonan says. The temple has been con-
structed under the supervision Of those of the
Vedante faith
The temple is in charge Of two Hindus, both
swami, or high priests of their faith, the chief
OF these being a Hindu named Prakashananda,
who directs affairs. The building, which is
three-story structure, is copied after the great
temples of India. The first two stories are after
the style Of the ordinary American dwelling, but
the third takes the Oriental style. There Is a
balcony with Moorish columns and 1t is on this
balcony that the Brahmancharins, or neophytes
as the ten white men who aspire to priesthood
are known, take their daily exercise Some of
these neophytes work at daily labor, but for the
most part they remain in the temple and do only
sacred work
On the roof of the temple small towers
which are Implications of the predominating fea
lures of the big temples in India. In view of the
fact that this is the frat temple of its kind erect
ed in America, there Is. surrounding all. an
American eagle.
Inside the first thing that strikes the visitor
is the absolute lack Of the Oriental in the fur
nishings. Everything is severely American.

Exporting Men and Women.

There is one kind of exports from
the United Kingdom for which there
is no competition from the United
States, and that is the export Of hui
man beings. Mr.. Mackinder, in speak
ing in the British parliament the
other day, said;
There is one great export of this
country which is always omitted in
statements Of this klnd--the export of
men and women. Each man and WON
an who leaves the country can hardly
be put down at less capital value to
the nation than $1,000 Last year
10000 more of British and Irish sub
jects left the country than entered 1t.
This would represent an export CAPT
tai equal to $160.O00
Germany, under a protective tariff,
though she has million births more
than deaths in a year, is no longer an
exporter of people in a serious sense
while the United Kingdom, which pro-
duces less than half a million popula.
tion a year, exports $4,000 annually.
Belgium has a density of population
twice as great as that OF the United
Kingdom, and is rather a small i'm.
porter Of people than an exporter Mr..
Mackinder went on to show that this
expectation of human beings was dis
astrOus to the nation. and was build
ing up other countries at the expense
Of the United Kingdom. and he saw
no remedy except that which would
be furnished by the adoption oe pro

Wages at Home and Abroad.

Rates of wages in the United States
navy yards are fixed by boards, which
are required to base the wages on the
rates paid in the vicinity of the yard
for similar work. Thus for the pres
ent year in the Washington navy yard,
for molders of the first class, $3.50 is
paid for eight hours work; 1896 is
paid to ordnance men; $3.50 to paint
ers; 1886 to riggers; $500 to wire
men, and $3.50 to coremakers. A COM
parison of these wages with those
paid in foreign countries would leave
no doubt in the mind of any fair man
as to the beneficial effect of the pro-
tective tariff. Consul General Dilling-
ham, reporting from Coburg, Germany,
gives the wages in the five leading
porcelain factories as varying from
S4.76 to So a week for men, and $2.13
to $4.39 for women. In other words,
workmen are paid in this country al
most as much for one day as some
workmen In Germany get for a weeks
work. Consul Norton of Chemnitz re-
ports that in five leading textile asso-
Citations the average annual pay was
from Sal to $211. That is only about
one-quarter the amount paid frst-class
mechanics in this country. Consul
Winans reports from Seville, Spain.
that the wages run from 30 to 40 cents
a day for lacemakers. The same story
comes from other European countries,
all of which concluslvely demonstrates
the value of our protective system to
American wage earners, as well as
practically to everybody else, and also
explains the cause of the enormous
emigration from Europe to the United
States.

Republican Victory Assured.

There is no doubt whatever that
several such laws will be enacted. and
that with a continued high volume of
employment, with good crops and good
prices for the farmer we shall pass
through a record breaking year in
every respect, and the people must at
tribute the conditions in large ex-
tent to the legislation of the Repub-
lican party. This means a Republican
victory at the polls next November,
and Republican congress in both
branches to sustain the administration
of the last two years of President
Taft's term. It may be possible that
II the election were held this spring
instead of next November the result
might be a matter of doubt, but when
the truth is spread and the misrepre-
sentation has been overcome, the peo-
pie, as they have so often in the past,
will see that II is to their best inter-
ests to keep the Republican party in
power and uphold the principles of
that party and give unstinted support
to President Taft and his allies
throughout the administration.

Satisfactory Condition.

The number of food animals IN the
United States has decreased 5,00O,-
600 since 1901. and the number of con-
sumers has increased 100000 in the
same time.
This is the result of an analysis by
the bureau of statistics of the depart
ment of commerce and labor, of the
census estimates of population and
the department of agriculture's esti-
mates of food animals in the years
1901 and 1910
The term food animals" includes
in this instance all cattle, sheep and
swine in the United States as es-
timated by the department of agricul-
ture, and the term CONSUMERS" in
cludes all of the population as es-
timated by the census.
