BABY WASTED TO SKELETON

"My little son, when about a year
and half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. I had physi-
clan treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. Then I
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and half of suffering he grew
SO bad that I had to tie his hands in
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.
my aunt advised me to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I
sent to drug store and got cake of
Cuticura Soap and box of the Oint-
ment and followed directions. At the
end of two months the sores were all
we'll. He has never had any sores
of any kind since. I can sincerely say
that only for Cuticura my child would
have died. l used only one cake Of
Cuticura Soap and about three boxes
of Ointment.

brings me into many different fam
lilies and it is always a pleasure for

DRINK WATER TO CURE
KIDNEYS AND RHEUMATISM
The People Do Not Drink Enough
Water to Keep Healthy,
Says WeIl-known
Authority.

"The numerous cases of kidney and
bladder diseases and rheumatism are
mainly due to the fact that the drink
ing of water, natures greatest medi-
cine, has been neglected.
Stop loading your system with med
icines and cure-alls; but get on the
water wagon. If you are really sick,
why, of course, take the proper medi-
cines-plain, common vegetable treat
ment, which will not shatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach"
To cure Rheumatism you must make
the kidneys do their work; they are
the filters Of the blood. They must
be made to strain out of the blood the
waste matter and acids that cause
rheumatism; the urine must be neu-
tralized so it will no longer be a
source of irritation to the bladder, and.
most Of all, you must keep these acids
from fce:ning in the stomach. This
is the cause of stomach trouble and
poor digestion. For these conditions
you can do no better than take the
following prescription: Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound
Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by
shaking well in bottle and take in
teaspoonful doses after each meal and
at bedtime, but don't forget the
water. Drink plenty and often.
This valuable information and SIM
pie prescription should be posted up
in each household and used at the
first sign of an attack of rheumatism,
backache or urinary trouble, no mat
ter how slight.

world equal.
1t is all very we'll to talk of the wonderful
mobility of the human countenance, sensitive to
every change in the emotions of the soul; it Is
nothing to the turkey cocks. See him elongate
his nose till it comes down to his chest, and OBJ
serve the number Of double chins he pro-
duce to add to his importance If he wishes to
impose on a presumptuous rooster or to impress
a fair young turkey pullet.
Then as to blushng, there was no debutante
ever foated on the social who could blush as
our gobbler can; his complexion plays through
all shades between livid blue and CHASTITY white
to lively scarlet, and, taken in connection with
the changes in his features, makes him quick
change artist of the first order, before whom the
chameleon collapses ashamed.
If anybody wants to practise drawing por-
traits, let them get hold of turkey gobber for
a sitter, and If they can succeed In getting his
features properly fixed on canvas will undertake
they will find anyone else's easy in comparison.
But it is not only in the display of his charms
that the turkey proclaims his advantage the
world Of feathered dependents; his stentorian
gobbling arrests the attention of ALL
The said gobbling by the way, has given rise
to the only bit Of folklore about the turkey that
know of. Being American, he is too modern
to have legends associated with him as rule;
but Indian Mohammedans profess to hear in the
turkeys voice blasphemous mockery of their
brief creed as spoken in Arabic. Hence. when
turkey has to be killed in India, the native takes
a cruel pleasure in executing it by cutting out
it's impious tongue; and widely spread is the
belief that little native boy, retainer of an
animal dealer in Calcutta, replied to me, when I
asked him-just by way of trying his knowledge
the name of American curassow bird that was
In the yard THAT is turkeS, sahib but it does
not repeat the creed"
What with strutting and gobbling himself, and
with proving congenial to the gobbling process as
conducted by human beings, the turkey fairly
bounced the poultry worlS in general, and actual
ly 0usted the goose the most ancient member Of
the poultry association and the savior of Rome,
from popular estimation as holiday dish. The

continent in more ways than one, and some

turkeys used in the absence of presentday facili-
ties for transport to be driven long distances
the roads, couple of noble sportsmen laid wa
ger to the speed of turkeys and geese over
course which it would take a matter of days to
traverse. Each nobleman provided with
little flock of four of the fowls of his fancy, and
of course betting was high in favor of the tur-
keys. And at first they seemed to justify their
hackers, for they soon stalked away from their
waddling rivals and left them far behind So
things went all day, but dusk came on the
aristocratic turkey herd found his charges becom-
ing passive resisters, and displaying an 1ncurabe
desire to go to roost-no amount of coaxng would
propel them farther. Meanwhile the despised

have known the farmyard bully pretty we'll
bested on two occasions myself-tragically so,
in fact. One of the most valued possession OF the
Calcutta animal dealer have mentioned was a
fawncolored European-bred turkey, whose color
much commended it in his eyes, since turkeys OF
this hue seem not to be found in India. This
privileged fowl used to circulate about his mas
ters chair, strutting and gobbling; and though ne
often resented the entrance Of natives into the
compound he respected Europeans, piece OF dis
elimination one does not expect in being of such
limited intelligence as turkey. Another inmate
of the menagerie young cassowary, and he
wrought the turkeys downfall; for coming into
the compound one day, missed the ginger-hued
gobber and asked what had become of him.
"Ah, my poor turkey" said the dealer; me
gave cheek tC the casSoWary, and the cassoWary
kicked him and burst his bag!" 1t sounded as il
the impudent bird had been collapsed like toy
balloon. but did not inquire into details.
The dealer, however consoed himself with
nair of local turkeys or the ordinary dark color
and the gobbler was beginning to take the place
of his deceased predecessor in the economy of the

One can even get turkey by hunting him with
dog, circumstances being favorable. The said
circumstances are the fact of tho turkeys being
a little way off from their woodland retreat feed
ing out on the prairie, and ones dog being grey
hound: moreover, ones horse should know how to
go. The turkey, even when wild, is not long
distance fier but he has not sense enough to re-
member this when he finds his foes between him
and the wood, and tries to fly straight away from
the pursuing hound instead Of turning about over
head and coming back to cover. After about a
mile he has had enough of flying and takes to his
legs only to find that his fouv-legged opponent is
close behind and he must perforce take to the all
again. But this time his flight is not for so long
distance and he is ANONYMOUSLY run into"
victim of misplaced confidence in himself as an
aeroplane.

key as he is, with all his comic extravagances and
that in one respect, at al! events he challenge
comparison with many worthier people: his last
appearance is always creditable, and no one car
deny that he cuts up well!

Cause for ThankfuIness.

Thanksgiving day is the day in the year
when the nation turns to heaven in thanks for it's
preservation. The life of the nation is the principal
consideration not only it's life but it's health and
its preservation in that condition in which it was
established by the fathers of the country. Men
can thank God for their own accumulations or sup.
plicae him to tighten their burdens but that is not
the purpose of a national thanksgiving. The nation
ITSELF the political structure which framed and
handed down-it is the preservation of this for
which the people are to be thankful.

lure OF the IoaSClnS
which is an important part Of the fes-
tivities of the day.
The fact is, of course, that turkeys
don't come from Turkey, and were I'M
known before the discovery of Amer
lea, in the north of which continent
the wild turkey still roams in unre-
strained freedom, though not, alas. in
undiminished numbers.
When the enterprising Spaniards
began to explore the resources of the
new world that Columbus had opened
out for them, they found that the ma
tives had tanned big bird, which they
regarded as sort of peacock; and 1t
was not long after the discovery of
America that the new bird made his
appearance in European poultry yards.
Great must have been the disgust
of the original occupants of these
when the invader appeared. For one
thing he was much bigger than any
of them, and could look down on
them in the most literal sense. He
was also fully aware of the Importance
of his expensive personality and lost
no time in impressing it on all and
sundry. The peacock, who had
reigned supreme both as an artist in
posing and as a table delicacy-the
Romans used to talk of having ham
and peacock" as We would speak of
ham and turkey-found himself con-
fronted with rival who made up for
inferiority of plumage by displaying
with much greater energy and fire.
