INSURGENTS SWEEP

P0lndexter Wins Senate Fight
by 10000 Plurality.

In the insurgent storm that swept
over the state OF Washington Tues.
day, the old guard of the Republican
party lost almost everything.
Miles Poindexter. OF Spokane, an
insurgent leader in the present house.
was nominated for United States sen
ator by 10000 plurality. carrying every
county In the state.
Two insurgents were nominated for
congress, with possibilities OF a third.
President Taft made an effort two
weeks ago. through Secretary Bal.
linger. to concentrate the opposition TO
Mr.. Poindexter on one regular candi-
date. The president obtained the with
drawal of former Senator John l..
Wilson. of Seattle. according TO Mr.
Wilson. but James NJ. Ashton. OF Ia.
coma. and Thomas Burke. of Seattle.
inst ted on remaining in the race and
dividing the regular vote.
The balloting shows that a concen-
tratlon of the regulars would not have
won.
Nearly all the candidates for the
legislature are pledged to vote for the
senatorial candidate receiving the
highest vote. and there can he no
fight over the election OF PoIndexter.

TASTED g e. 1 Days, Died.

His stomach weakened and disor-
dered By fast of twenty-four days.
which he endured recently, believing
he had been asked to do SO by the AL
mighty, J. Will Tippin, weli-to-do
citizen of Rome, Ca, died few days
ago.
For the past year or so Tippin had
astonished his friends by his religious
views. Not long ago Tippen was con-
vinced that he had catarrh Of the stom-
ach. He decided to fast and not eat
another bite until commanded to do so
by the Almighty. For 2a days he Gid
not taste drop of food. His family
begged and pleaded with him, and ne
listened to them with kindness, but
was determined that he was pursuing
the right course.
Finally, on the twenty-ffth day,
DR.. Wicker came to the house and
told tippin that he had been sent
there by the Lord to give him food.
He was so weak at that time that he
could hardly rise from his bed. Slight
nourishment was given him at first.
He showed little improvement; his
stomach was 80 weak and disordered
that it would not assimilate food. All
the lir:ogs of his stom ach had been
eaten away. Every effort was made
to restore the mans strength and
when death came it closed the career
of most remarkable man.
Tippin was stockholder in the
Southern Cooperative Foundry, the
American Bank and Trust company
and the Rome Scale Works.
He leaves wife and five children.

AN IMTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years ago, some
form of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
1t grew steadily worse until, when |
combed my hair, the scalp became
raw and the ends of the comb-teeth
would be wet with blood. Most OF the
time there was an intolerable itching,
In a painful, burning way, very much
as a bad, raw burn, IL deep, will itch
and smart when first beginning to
heal. Combipg my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tan
gled terribly because of the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worse
and over half my hair fell out. was
In despair, really afraid Of becoming
totally bald.
Sometimes the pain was SO great
that, when partially awake, | would
scratch the worst places so that my
finger-tips would be bloody. l could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
q short time. that awful singing pain
would and then | would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
a toilet soap before, / now decided to
order a set of the Cuticura Remedies
-Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.
! used them according to directions
for perhaps six weeks, then left of,
as the disease seemed to be eradi.
Gated, but toward spring, eighteen
months ago. there was a slight re-
turn OF the scalp humor. | COM
menced the Cuticura treatment at
once, so had very little trouble. On
my scalp l used about one half a cake
of Cuticura Soap and half q box of
Cuticura Ointment in all. The first
time | took six or seven bottles of Gu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles-neithcr an expensive or to-
dious treatment. Since then I have
had 10 scalp trouble Of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, it
comes to my knees and had 1t not been
for Cuticura l should doubtless be
wholly bald.
