HIS HANDS CRACKED OPEN

T am man. seventy years old. My hands were very sore and cracked open on the insides for over a year with large sores. They would crack open and bleed, itch, burn and ache so that I could not sleep and could dc but little work. They were so bad that I could not dress myself in the morning. They would bleed and the blood dropped on the floor. I called on two doctors, but they did me nc good. I could get nothing to do any good till I got the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. About a year ago my daughter got a cake of Cuti cura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment and in one week from the time I began to use them my hands were all healed up and they have not been mite, sore since. I would not be without the Cuticura Remedies.
 "They also cured bad sore on the hand of one of my neighbours children and they think very highly of the Cuti cura Remedies John w. Nasty, So. Elf fingham, N H., Mar. and Apr. II, '09.'

Three Brothers Separated for 4e Years Meet in Chicago Through
 Emblem.

Chicago.-After a separation of al- most half a century, three brothers were reunited in Chicago the other day through an emblem which they all agreed to wear on their coats through life when they parted 49 years ago. Two of the brothers sub sequently met in Chicago, both being prominent business men, but the third remained unheard from, and he was believed to have been killed in the Civil war.

Howell, sixty-two years old, president of the Illinois Improvement x Ballast company, David Howell, fifty-four years old, also connected with the Improvement company, and James Howell. seventy years old, now a prosperous merchant of Wheeling, w.

Plants Fifty Years Old to Be Shown at Exhibition to Be Given at
 Shepherds Bush.

London.-There is quite an advance in the preparations which are being made for the Japan-British exhibition which is to be held this year at Shep- herds Bush, especially in the Japan ese garden.
 Up the mountain side, which will be clothed with juniper, now climb trees of wide variety, among them being a weeping elm, an elder bush, and a maple on the summit An old Jap anese house, half of it built on piles rooted in the lake, is almost finished and the framework of a persuasive bridge is arched over the water
 The principal attraction of the gar den will probably be the wonderful collection of wistarias, said to be be- tween 40 and 50 years old, with twist ed trunks about a span and half in

GREAT FISH MARKET

money a sum between $6,000,0 900 and $7,000.000.
 There are 325 craft in the fleet that lands fish at Boston, worth $10,000 each, or something more than $3,000,- 900 in the aggregate. Each of these vessels has an annual expense account of about $14,000, for repairs, sails, rig ging, gear, bait. ice. supplies and the like, and this means business to New England of $4,500,000 strong. The fleet employs between 6,000 and 1000 men directly and many others get work because of it, bringing the total of men looking to the business for a living up to near 10000. Counting three persons as dependent on each of these men, it will be seen that a total of 10000 persons get their bread and butter from Boston's fishing fleet
 Neither in the gathering of it's SUD- ply nor in it's distribution of the same can Boston's fish business be consid- cred merely local. The fisherman goes far atield to cast line for the Boston market. The greater part of the coun- try's halibut supply. for example. comes to Boston from Alaskan waters.

where Boston capital and energy maintain fleet of five steamers to prosecute the fishery and large and modern freezing plant, recently estab- lished on American soil at Metchican, to prepare the halibut for shipment east by fast trains, via Vancouver. Fully 90 per cent. of the Boston mar ket's halibut comes from this source.
 The salmon fisherman on the Co., lumbia river sets his nets for the Bos ton market The Chesapeake bay and Savannah river shad fishermen and the Newfoundland herring seiner do the same. Fish come from every point of the compass to Boston and from here are distributed to points as far west as the Rockies and as far south as New Orleans.

tions oblige them to face the risk of attack train their dogs to defend them. This idea has enormously developed Of late years in Belgium, and con- petltiye trials are now numerous, which with their good prizes and the high sums for which trained dogs are often sold greatly encourage the breed ing of suitable dogs.
 Many men in Brussels keep a dog solely as defense for going to and from work, and on any large vacant space of ground one is sure to find some man training his dog with this purpose in view.
 The dogs used solely for defense and police dogs, of whom Is required a more subtle intelligence, must for their own safety learn certain lessons in common. For instance, they must refuse to accept food from anyone, al though their master may not be pres. ent to restrain them.
 Another item settled on the progra,a was the height of the jumps required of the dogs. Both defense and polite dogs must be able to jump a fence boasd1ng at least seven feet high, and the animals, which jump at the word

AlbatrosS In Indiana

Hagerstown, Ind.-A wandering al batross, measuring five feet from tip to tip of wings, was captured on a small pond on the Elvin Oler farm three miles north of here. It is a fine specimen. The breast is pure white, the wings and back sky blue. the tip of each wing and the tip of the tail black. with a yellowish-brown stripe about it's neck. The albatross is the largest of the sea birds. What inf1u- enced this one to drift so far inland can only be conjectured.

 This forward one of the two gar dens at Shepherds Bush has been de- signed, according to the style of the Sindu school. which has been estab- lished in Japan for 800 years.
 It will be "the eye of the exhibi- tion" and will show something en- tlrely new in compressed beauty" in Europe. Within an acre will be seen cascades, streams, lakes, bridges, hills. rough garden patches, pergolas, groves, lawns, and variety of strange. beautiful landscape effects.

Tbe Important
 Problem

confronting anyone in need of laXa' tive is not a question of single ac. tion only, but of permanently bene. ficial effects, which will follow proper efforts to live in hcalthful way, with the assistance of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, whenever it is re- quired, as it cleanses the system gently yet promptly, without irritation and will therefore always have the preference of all who wish the best of family laxatives.
 The combination has the approval of physicians because it is known to be truly beneficial, and because it has given satisfaction to the millions of well-informcd families who have used it for many years past.
 To get it's beneficial effects, always buy the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only.

 Americans the Pick of the Lot.
 The tragedies of American women for European titles should be blazoned in letters of fire from the housetops of the land Within the last 20 years at least $2OO,0O0,000 of American money has been wasted on these titled imbeciles and scoundrels. It seems there would be no more successful way of making nation poor Be- sides, the best men in the world are in America, and there is no need to go abroad for husbands.
 But, you say, the families of these titled fortune hunters are high! But what avails that if the man be low himself. What respect can a woman have for man who, however highly titled, is low in all the elements that make up man? Can ancestry cover up mental imbecility or moral base ness? The American may be the first and best of his line; these Europeans are about the last and worst of theirs.
 American women, with notably few exceptions, who married titles, made terrible bargains-their lives were misery and their premature old age like a crag on the bleak sides of a desert mountain, where cold moonbeams sometimes glitter, but no sunshine ever falls, no flowers bloom. no birds sing, but wild storms howl and hoarse thunders roar, and through the sweeping storm have heard Gods stern voice: Your riches are cor rupted, your garments are moth eaten, your gold and silver are cankered, and the rust of them shall be a swift wit ness against you and eat your flesh as it were fire"
