is YEARS OF SKIN DISEASE

For sixteen long years have been
suffering with bad case Of skin dis
ease. While child there broke out a
red sore on the legs just in back of
my knees. 1t waxed from bad to worse,
and at last saw I had bad skin
disease. tried many widely known
doctors in different cities but to no
satisfactory result. The plague both
cred me more in warm weather than
in winter and being on my leg joints
it made 1t impossible for me to walk,
and was forced to stay indoors in the
warmest weather. My hopes of recov-
cry were by this time spent. Sleepless
nights and restless days made life an
unbearable burden. At last was
advised to try the Cuticura remedies
[Cuticura Soap. Ointment and Pillsl
and I did not need more than a trial
to convince me that l was on the road
of success this time. I bought two
sets of the Cuticura Remedies and
after these were gone was a differ
ent man entirely. / am now the hap
piest man that there is at least one
true care for skin diseases. Leonard

According to the result of many
measurements made at the An.
thropological laboratory in London.
the right arm In human beings is, in
majority of cases, longer than the
left arm. while. on the contrary. the
left leg is longer than the right leg.
Sometimes. however. the relative pro.
portions are exactly reversed. but
very seldom does perfect equality
exist between the two sides. The ten.
dency of the right arm to exceed the
left arm in strength is somewhat
greater in men than in women. while
equality Of strength in the two arms
occurs almost twice as frequently
with women as with men.

Wife Show Party Much Honor.

Cairo, March 25-Former Presl-

lures on the walls of the temples.
Half an hour was spent yesterday

khedive, who showed the keenest in
terest in Colonel Roosevelt's hunting
tour. Politics were not discussed, but
there was an exchange of views on
irrigation and agriculture. The con-
versation was conducted in English.
In the meantime the khedivah re-
ceived Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Ethel
with many marks of distinction. Cof-
fee was served in gold cups encrusted
with diamonds. The khedivah begun
the conversation in French and II
was carried on in that language. She
was particularly interested in the po-
sition of women in America.
The khedive returned the ex-presi-
dents visit at the American agency

exchange of visits has given the great
est pleasure to both.

Terrible Eruption of Volcano
PourS Streams of Lava Over
Many Towns,
EIGHTEEN CRATERS SEND
FORTH FIERY DESTRUCTION
Six New Craters of Famous Volcano
Open Today-PeOple OF Mountain
Towns Fleeing by Thousands-Lava
Stones and Ashes Threaten Death
Stream is Fifty Feet Deep and
Half Mile Wide-Many Thrilling
Rescues.

Catanio. Mar. 25.-The eruption of
Mount Aetna is growing in intensity
every hour. Six new craters opened
today and shot forth streams of lava,
which have joined the boiling torrent
that is despoiling city, town and farms.
The towns of Borello, Belpasso, San
Leo Donazzi. Copello. Albanello and
Nicolosi have been wholly or parti-
ally destroyed. Thousands are flee
ing from their mountain towns. It is
feared the disaster may prove one OF
the most destructive of modern times.
There are now eighteen active cra-
ters pouring forth sulphurous vapors,
stones and ashes, while each is an
overlooking well Of molten lava. The
clouds of smoke which are pouring
from the craters obscure the sun and
increase the superstitious fears of the
peasants.
The scenes following the destruction
of the mountain towns. resemble those
following the Messina earthquake
Whole villages are on the move and
streams Of refugees. composed of
terror stricken men. women and chill
dfen are coming into Catania. AL
ready the authorities are facing a seri-
Gus problem in caring for the home
less
The government engineers are vain
ly endeavoring to avert the destruc-
ton Of towns in the path OF the lava
torrent by hastily erecting dykes and
digging trenches to divert the streams
but the irresistible flood of hot mud
and boiling lava has swept away all
obstructions. The lava is travelling at
the rate of thirteen hundred feet an
hour. The main streams are fifty
feet deep. and half mile wide.
Word has been received here that
scores of refugees have been cut off
by diverging lava streams and volun-
teers have left for the scene Many
thrilling rescues have been made. In
addition to the lava, the inhabitants
of the mountain towns are threatened
with death by the out pouring of
rocks and shower of hot ashes from
the main crater. The extent of the
disaster measured by property loss is
enormous

WARNER YOUNG WILL
CONTEST IS RE0PENED
EFFORT MADE TO GUST MRS.
WARNER FROM YOUNG FARM
Legislation Which Has Been Smould-
ering for Few Months May Burn
With Renewed Vigor-Mabel in

The long legal struggle for the pos
session of the ]. w. Young will estate
has been re-opened by the filing of
an injunction suit against Mabel
Warner. For more than a year Mrs.
Warner has been in possession of the
Young farm, valued at $4,000 and
located in the northern part of the
county. So far she has resisted all
the efforts of the other heirs to the
estate to oust her from the farm and
the injunction suit yesterday was
brought as a final act. The tempor-
airy injunction has been granted the
papers served and now it remains to
be seen whether or not the order of
the court will be needed.
1t is barely possivle Mrs Warner
will have an opportunity of spending
a few hours in Jail. Those who have
watched the battle the fair contest
ant has been putting up for what she
terms her rights. would not be sur
prised to see her decide to remain on
the farm despite the injunction and
the only thing that could result would
be her arrest on a charge of contempt
of court.
The Warner Young will contest
which has been in the courts contin-
uously for more than four years has
been dominant for several months
but now that it has broken out anew
it is possible that it will continue with
renewed interest.
In the complaint to the injunction
suit Mrs. Warner is charged with hav-
.t..-
er of the heirs out Of the estate Of the
late j. w. Young and to have forged
the three mysterious wills which ap-
peared under such mysterious cir
cumstances and all purporting to
leave to this woman the bulk of the
estate.

women were forced to the windows.

gradually nearer and It became a race
between the firemen and the flames.
