WASTED A FORTUNE ON SKIN
TROUBLE

II began to have an itching over my
whole body about seven years ago and
this settled in my limb, from the knee
to the toes. l went to see great many
physicians, a matter which cost me a
fortune, and after l noticed that did
not get any relief that way, went for
three years to the hospital. But they
were un ole to help me there. l used
all the medicines that I could see but
became worse and worse. 1 had an
Inflammation which made me almost
crazy with pain. When l showed my
foot to my friends they would get
really frightened. 1 did not know
what to do. l was so sick and had be.
come SO nervous that 1 positively lost
all hope.
II had seen the advertisement OF
the Cuticura Remedies a great many
times, but could not make up my mind
to buy them, for had already used SO
many medicines. Finally 1 did decide
to use the Cuticura Remedies and /
tell you that was never so pleased as
when noticed that, after having used
two sets of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment and Cuticura Pills, the en-.
tire Inflammation had gone. l was
completely cured. I should be only
too glad if people with similar disease
would come to me and find out the
truth. 1 would only recommend them
to use Cuicura. MS. Bertha Sachs,

Washington, Jan. 31.-Another i'm
provement in the civil service law is
about to be written into the statute
books. 1t is the so-called annuity
scheme which will. it is believed
give all the employees of Uncle Sam
not only absolute security during their
working days but keep them from all
fear of want during their lifetime.
The plan is not altogether a new
one. 1t was Endorsed by former Presi-
dent Roosevelt. and has just received
the Endorsement of President Taft
There is hope that congress may take
favorable action on it this session.
The civil service law was enacted
in 1888, more than quarter of CEN
fury ago. 1t established order where
chaos had reigned. The efficiency of
the service was vastly increased by it
and the status of the employe greatly
improved. He knows now that he
has practically life employment, if he
does his work well.
Old Methods Are Gone.
There are no longer to be found.

in the approximation movement" for
many years
This plan is founded on the saw
ings- bank idea. which provides for re-
tirement on annuities derived from the
savings OF government employees. The
United States Civil Service Retire
ment association now has a member
ship of 5000. and is SO strong aud
aggressive that ii will be a great force
in securing legislation from congress.
A great number Of representatives
have already expressed themselves in
favor OF the compulsory savings ae-
count for all employees. based on u
sliding scale percentage of salaries.
Actuaries who were engaged by u pre-
vious congress have figured that ani-
pie funds could be provided through
an adaptation of the French system
under which the first months COM
pensation is denied TO employees. and
those who receive promotion agree 10
months increase. The fund thus ere
ated forms the nucleus for the retire
ment system.
A Favorable Report.
A favorable report on the Brown
plan was made by the Keep commits
sion. whose report was sent to con-
gress about a year ago. with Former
President Roosevelt's message of in
dorsement At that time the Civ1
Service committees of the house and
senate desired TO obtain more data in
regard TO the personnel of the service,
and also in regard to the cost of the
proposed plan.
There has been a great deal OF ugly
suspicion in congress that the plan
practically meant the opening wedge
of paternalism in the government ser.
vice: that it would open the wa yto an
other heavy drain upon the nations
funds. The idea. however. has been
founded upon ignorance. As mat
ter of fact. the government clerks I'M
der this plan would practically pay ev.
cry cent needed for the superannua.
ton fund. II is founded on the prin-
cipal Of modern scientific insurance,
and there is said to be no question Of
it's success. according to previous ex-
perience.
Heretofore the Civil Service law has
been like a beautiful entrance to fine
building said one supporter of the
Brown plan today But the fine
building had no exit. The backdooT
had been forgotten. Mr.. Brown has
shown how a doorway may be cut, and
it is hoped that congress will accept
his plan and give relief to the old who
are pining for escape. and to the young
who are longing for more elbow room
and higher seats"

Richmond the weather was extremely
bad and the audience small In spite
OF these draw backs, the choir sang
their way into the hearts of all pres
ent. Director Thomas said that it was
probably due to the night that one Of
the smallest audiences of their tour
had assembled, but that doubtless for
a return engagement, many more
would be present
In Indianapolis, Mr.. Taylor arrang-
ed for two performances and in the
afternoon 400 people were present, at
night 1900. The people pronounced
it the finest singing ever heard in
that city, and it is predicted that on
the return date, the big auditorium of
Roberts Park church will be taxed to
it's capacity.
1t should be remembered that the
Welsh singers present a program that
all classes of people enjoy, for they
are not over the heads of what might
be called the general public.
The coliseum on February should
draw a great crowd, for these singers
are the talk of every large town from
the Atlantic to the Mississippi. The

Starr Piano rooms, Saturday morning

LLANELLY PRIZE CHOIR.

No organization of it's character has
ever made the memorable tour now to
the credit of the Llanelly Prize Welsh

ment has resulted. Where one person

three the next.

1t is believed that approximation
in the government service reaches Its
highest point in Washington. where
one out of every fourteen employees is
more than siNty-five years of age. The
conditions are especially bad in gen
eral land office. the patent office and
the treasury department.. In these de-
partments there are many workers ov-
er eighty years of age and the sight
of SO large a portion of the aged and
the obviously infirm is likely to leave
a bad impression on the visitors.
Renders Poor Service.
There are many experts who declare
that an employee more than siNty-five
years of age renders only three quart
ers service. and thus becomes a great
drag upon the entire service.
Legislation has been respectfully
urged upon congress to ameliorate the
present condition. approximation.
and its evil effects have been assailed
by an organization known as the Civil
Service Retirement association. by the
civil service commission. and by var
ious department heads. The propa-
SduCd mas maze llttle progress, now
ever. largely because it lacked a def
mite program. So many schemes of
retirement have been suggested that
the movement has been unable to TO-
Gus on any one of them.
Consider Reform Plans.
These plans have been before the
House Committee or Reform in the
Civil Service, but the objection most
strongly urged against them is that
they have either provided civil pen
sions or have imposed some form of
| assessment that proved inequitable. as
between different classes of employees.
The approval of many congressman
has been gained. however. for a new
plan by which has been embodied in
the bill 1t was favorably reported
to the house by Representative Gil
lett, chairman of the committee on Re-
form in the Civil Service. a the last
session of congress. The same bill.

PROTECT USERS oF PAINTS

To protect users of paints in Wiscon-
sin from imposition and fraud through
the processes of adulteration and dilu.
tion, is one of the tasks Dairy and Food
Commissioner J. O. Emery finds most
strenuous The opportunity for fraud
is so great and the ability of the ordi
nary consumer to detect it is so limit
ed, that the INSCRIPTIONS maker or his
agent finds easy picking if only they
can escape the watchful eye of the
dairy and food commissioner or his dill
gent inspectors.
An inspector of the department has
been investigating a travelling sales
man, who has been attempting to sell
so-called linseed oil and turpentine in
the state. 1t is alleged that the com
pany he represents has made large
shipment of oil to a certain city in
Wisconsin, and for some reason the oil
is being held by the railroad company
in that city and on this account he of

below the market.
Samples of the so-called linseed oil
and tlrpentine alleged to have been
sold by this man have been analysed
in the laboratory of the dairy and food
commission and found to contain from
% to 40 per cent of mineral oil.
