NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

My little son, boy of five, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At
the time l was induced to try Cuti-
cura he was so bad that l had to cut
his hair off and put the Cuticura ONT
ment on him on bandages, as it was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
Of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass Of
sores. The bandages used to stick to
his skin and in removing them it used
to take the skin of with them, and
the screams from the poor child were
heartbreaking. | began to think that
he would never get we'll, but after the
second application Of Cuticura ONT.
meat began to see signs of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced to
dry up His skin peeled off twenty
times, but 1t finally yielded to the
treatment. Now l can say that he IS
entirely cured, and a stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
Is to-day, twelve years or more since
the cure was effected Robert Wattam,

Gophers Prefer Sparta.

Although a law Of Minnesota re
quircs all the militia of that state to
encamp at Lakeview, near Lake City,
every year, a plan Is on foot in the
Twin cities to abandon this camp,
which is declared inadequate, in order
70 accept an invitation to participate
In the army maneuyers to be held in
September at the national reservation
near Sparta, Wis The popular view
is that the militia could afford to
drop Camp Lakeyiew entirely and
maneuYer annually with the regulars.
BY sending the artillery to Sparta last
year the state saved enough money to
allow the militia regiments to hold ten
day camps instead Of eight day as
previously. If all the state troops
were sent to Sparta. enough money
might be saved annually from the
state appropriation for camp purposes
to provide the militia with many
things which they need, such as home
rifle ranges and better clothing, but
which the companies cannot have now
under the meager provision.

Turns Down Schissler.

Coy. Davidson again refused to
commute the sentence of Al SChissler,
sent up to Waupun from Milwaukee
for the killing Of William f, Reul, 8
young bank clerk at Watertown,
Schissler's brother, p V. Schissler,
accompanied by his wife, appeared
before the governor with the request
that he commute the sentence so that
Schissler might come under the pro
visions of the parole law Their prin-
cipal argument was that the child of
the convicted man, now eight years OF
age, needed his care and attention.
Gov Davidson, after listening TO
their arguments, said he say no rea-
son why he should recede from the
position he had taken in this case on
former occasions and declared that
he felt he could not commute the sen.

JACK KNIGHT
CAME LATE

Ball players who make good in fast
company are not always those who
come most touted from the minor
leagues. Frequently the individual
who is really being brought up for a
trial outshines the one who is regard
ed as a certainty to make good.
The New York team furnishes such
an illustration. When Stallings pick
ed up Jack Knight there were but few
who figured that he would make good.
The fact that he had trial in fast
company before was held against him,
and numerous were the predictions
that his stay in fast company would
be but short-lived.
On the other hand. Stallings bought
. youngster named Earl Gardner, who
was the unanimous choice of all the
wise ones who had seen him play.
Stallings felt that in Gardner he had
picked up a real star. But what hap
pened? Knight, Of whom little was
expected. came SO close to carrying off
the shortstop honors last season that
the experts almost agree that he is
the best In the league, while Gardner
IL not apt to have a regular position
on the team next season. In fact. 1t
IL said that Manager Chase intends
to shift Knight to second base and

named Otis Johnson. who halls from

Such a shift may be given trial.
but the chances are that Knight will
be found in his old position next sea-
son, for no one could have filed It bet
ter. and II remains to be seen II he
would shine at second.
