IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA

mo tongue can tell how l suffered
for five years with itching and bleed
ing eczema, until l was cured by the
Cuticura Remedies, and 1 am so CRATE
full l want the world to know, for
what helped me will help others. My
body and face were covered with
sores. One day it would seem to be
better, and then break out again with
the most terrible pain and itching. I
have been sick several times, but
never in my life did experience such
awful suffering as with this eczema. l
had made up my mind that death was
near at hand, and 1 longed for that
time when l would be at rest. Ihad
tried many different doctors and medi-
c1nes without success, and my mother
brought me the Cuticura Remedies, in
sisting that 1 try them. l began to
feel better after the first bath with
Cuticura Soap, and one application of
Cuticura Ointment.
Il continued with the Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment, and have
taken four bottles of Cuticura Resolv-
ent, and consider myself we'll. This
was nine years ago and l have had
no return Of the trouble since. Any
person having any doubt about this
wonderful cure by the Cuticura Rene
dies can write to my address. Mrs.

INDIAN GIRL

MARY 5EARGREAsE WINS CON-
TEST AFTER THREE YEARS
LITIGATION.

Duluth, May 1S.-After three years of
litigation, Mary Beargrease, a propos-
sessing Indian girl, has been awarded
the homestead in 57-9, in which she
filed at the opening of the town in No
vember, 1906. Miss Beargrease secured
her patent at the local land office to-
day and went away happy
The girl was put up against stub
born contest soon after she filed on the
land. Martin Steinmen of Minneapolis
brought the contest, alleging among
other things that the girl was ward
Of the government and did not have
necessary qualifications to file on the
land, but lived with her father at
Beaver Bay.
The local officials of the landofice
decided that the girl was never a ward
OF the government having never lived
on a reservation and that she had
shown sufficient claims to the land.
The local officials were sustained by
the commissioner and the case was
carried to the secretary of the interior.
who also sustained the decision.
Mary Beargrease is a daughter of
John Beargrease OF Beaver Bay, one OF
the best known Indians in this Sec

ed, energetic and progressive and she
believes she can make success in the

National Retail jewelers. association
will be present at the joint meetings
OF the North Dakota Retail jewelers.
association and the North Dakota
State Optical association, local officers
are fast completing arrangements fo1
the big session which takes place in
Devils Lake on June Is, 16 and IL
and which will be one Of the most i'm
portant of its kind ever held in the
northwest.
The officials of the two associations
are very optimistic over the prospects
for the meeting, especially since the
telegram of acceptance was received
from Mr.. Archibald, as this is the first
time that a national president has
journeyed so far west to attend a state
association meeting. 1t will require
about 5000 miles of travelling for Mr.
Archibald to make the visit to North
Dakota, but he regards this field as
one worthy of the time and attention
Mr.. Archibald has the reputation
of being one of the most able trade
association men in the United States
Trade papers that have closely follow
ed his work, have said repeatedly thai
he has done more in the two years
that he has headed the association to-
ward bringing the retail dealers and
the jobbers and wholesalers together
on a common ground, than any other
single man has ever accomplished.
But even without the presence OF
the national president, the annual
meetings of the organizations this
summer could not but be successful
as a programme of the most elaborate
nature has been arranged. Prominent
speakers of this and other states have
been called upon and have accepted
invitations to address the retail Jewell
ers and opticians on subjects which
bear special interest for them.
Then in addition to the business SEES
sions the people of Devils Lake have
arranged to care for their guests in
royal manner and they promise that
nothing will be left undone to give
the members of the two organizations
the best time ever.

BELIEVE VERDICT
WAS A MISTAKE
DICKINSON MAN CLAIMS DANIEL
BLAKE RUSSELL Is THE
RIGHTFuL HEIR.

| Minot, N. D., May 1s.--That the
verdict in the famous Russell will case
was entirely wrong and that Danie
Blake Russell, the North Dakota
claimant did not receive fair treat
ment at the hands Of the court Is the
opinion of ]. N. Brodie OF Dickinson
who was witness at Melrose.
Mr.. Dickinson, who is interested In
land, was in the city Saturday even
on his way to Canada. He has Just
returned from an extended trip which
he took after attending the latter part
Of the trial at Melrose and is thor
oughly posted an the incidents lead
ing up to the hearing.
Daniel Blake Russell" said Mr.
Brodte, has lived on a ranch near
Dickinson for a long time. 1 have
seen him again and again, but he has
always seemed somewhat peculiar,
preferring to remain alone. The first
any Of us knew about the relation
ship he bore to the Massachusetts,
people was when he was taken SER
iously i'll and was removed to the
Dickinson hospital. While on what
he thought to be his death bed he told
dents which led UP to his leaving
home, sensational in themselves. The
case finally drifted into the hands of
a st. Paul attorney who took a trip
to Melrose and found that the estate
existed. He was able to do nothing
at that time and the matter was all
lowed to lapse until Russell employed
Attorney Simpson who made such a
brilliant fight.
Il was not present at all Of the trial,
but / heard enough, added to what
had already heard from Russell to
convince me that the North Dakota
claimant was the real one
The people Of Melrose were all
great friends of Daniel Russell. They
would sit and chat with him about
old times, for hours and he would not
only remember incidents which they
would bring up but would suggest lit
tie occurrences himself that they had
forgotten. His conduct on the stand
was of the best and the thousand dol
lar day attorney who cross examin-
ed him for seventeen days could not
make him contradict himself or what
appeared to be the truth I was not
in Melrose at the time the verdict was
rendered but heard about the great
reception given Daniel Russell by his
fellow townsmen. After I left the
trial I took trip through the south
and everywhere I went I found people
deeply interested in the outcome of
the hearing"
When asked regarding the impress
sion left by Senator Simpson who
RusselPs case, Mr.. Brodie
said: Senator Simpson created even
more Of a sensation in the east than
the trial did. Attorneys from all the
large cities came to hear him conduct
his case and returned, astounded at
his skill The staid east cannot
arouse itself to the same point of en-
thusiasm in legal studies as the more
west. Attorney Simpson
has been offered several lucrative po-
sitions in the east, but I believe he
will take no other steps until he has
completed the appeal in the Russell
hearing"
