The dolls house of Nuremberg leaves nothing

The tourist season Is a second Christmas for
Nuremberg people, and they sell as many play
things in the period as the other. An inter-

early differentiation of the American and Euro

fascinating past and the strangely progressive

realization of all that Nuremberg has been and
has undergone comes to one most wildly as one
stands looking down into the Schloss well 65O

SAVED OLD LADY'S HAIR

my mother used to have very bad
humor on her head which the doctors
called an eczema, and for it had two
different doctors. Her head was very
sore and her hair nearly all fell out
in spite Of what they both did. One
day her niece came in and they were
speaking Of how her hair was falling
out and the doctors did 1t no good.
She says, Aunt, why don't you try
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint'
ment?' Mother did and they helped
her. In six months time the itching,
burning and scalding Of her head was
over and her hair began growing. To
day she feels much in debt to Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head Of hair she has for an old lady
of seventy-four.

WHAT PEOPLE EXPECT
OF NEW CONGRESS

The following are extracts from
the pen of Geo. w. Avery, which we
purloined from the Columbian:
In view of the fact that the house
is democratic and the president and
senate republican, it would not be
advisable to call a special session,
as legislation is likely to be blocked
and very little good accomplished.
What the people want the new
congress to do:
Cut out Cannonism, Aldrichism
Ballingerism, and many other isms
and give us a government by the
people.
Revise the tariff downward to
the point of difference in the cost
at home and abroad.
Place on the free list every arti-
Gle the production of which is con-
trolled by a trust or monopoly.
Advance the cause of universal
peace and as soon as the treaties
can be arranged between the ma
tions, sufficiently binding to be eff
fective, reduce the army and navy,
! and with the large sums thus saved
reclaim vast tracts of land in the
west Thereby accomplishing four
purposes, viz; securing homes for
the homeless, relieving the longest
ed labor centers of the big cities,
increasing the production OF food
and clothing and turning the now
wasted energy of the army and navy
into productive channels.
Provide for the election of the
United States senators by direct vote
of the people, or better still abolish
the senate entirely. 1t is relic
of monarchy and is copied after the
old European house of the lords and
should have no place in republic.
Elect one legislative body direct
from the people and hold them in
CONTROL by the referendum and re-
call.
Provide for government owner
ship of telegraphs. Almost every ma
ton On earth has adopted this pol
icy and we are tagging behind. We
have the poorest telegraph system
in the world and pay the highest
rates for it.
