DIVIDE ROYALTIES ON ORE.
Stockholders In Great Northern Iron
Properties Will Receive
$2,065,5 Jan. 10.

Duluth. The stockholders in the
Great Northern ore properties will
divide among themselves $z,065,5OO,
Jan. 10, from the United States Steel
corporation as royalties on the ore
lands leased from the Great Northern
stockholders. The payment will be for
the year 1909 and will aggregate about
1877 per cent on outstanding certifi-
Gates.
According to St. Paul advices, the
steel corporation has taken some ore
from the Great Northern properties
during this year, but the amount is
not large, and if any quarterly pay
ments have been made, they were
small.
The capitalization of the Great
Northern ore properties is $150,000,-
900, and under the lease the steel cor
poration will have to pay approx
mately per cent on that amount next
year. The scale is then a rising one
until in 1917 the payments will be 634
per cent
The amount of ore mined will also
have considerable effect, as the pay
ments will have to made even if no
ore is mined, unless the lease is al
lowed to lapse.

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 it very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.
Finally I got Cuticura Soap, Cuti-
cura Ointment and Cuticura Pills and
gave them according to directions.
used them in the morning and that
evening, before put my boy to bed,
l used them again and the improve
ment even in those few hours was sur
prising, the inflammation seemed to
be so much less. I used two boxes of
Cuticnra Ointment, the same of the
Pills and the Soap and my boy was
cured. My son is now in his sew
enteenth year and he has never had
a return of the eczema.
II took care of a friends child that
had eczema on it's face and limbs and
used the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
They acted on the child just as they
did on my son and it has never re-
turned. I would recommend the Cuti-
cura Remedies to anyone. Mrs. A. J.
