To OPEN IN TWO YEARS
PRESIDENT SEES PANAMA CANAL
DOING BUSINESS IN 1918.
Back in Washington, Taft Says No
Extra Session Of Congress Seems
cessary-Messaee Soon.

Washington.-After having stopped
day at Richmond, Va, on
his way from the Isthmus of Panama,
the president announced, soon after
his arrival here, that he would make
no engagements in the next few days.
Only cabinet members and others with
whom he desires to consult regarding
his message were formally received
at the White House The document
will be ready either the night of the
2Sth or early on the 18th.
The president will deal in the mes
sage with his visit to Panama, making
recommendations on a number of sub
jects he desires considered and dis
cussed, with view to early legisla-
ton.
Coincident with his return, it was
learned President Taft considers there
is not the slightest reason for an extra
session Of congress after the coming
short session.
The presidents Panama Canal
speech at Richmond was listened to
with the greatest interest. He en-
deavored, in a brief way, to describe
the conditions as he found them, and
aroused great enthusiasm by his pre-
diction that the canal would be opened
well in advance of the official date OF
opening, January 1, 1915. He declared
that if necessity demanded, he be-
lieved American battleships could be
sent through the waterway by Jan
uaTy /, 1913.
What the American people want,
said Mr. Taft, IF l understand it, is
the prompt completion of the canal
and they are willing to pay fairly for
it, 1t does not require the magma
ton of the engineer to see that the
canal is there and being put through
and that it will be great canal"
Mr.. Taft went into some detail il
describing the problem presented by
the Chagres river, and declared the
lock and lake plan, as finally adopted
is the most feasible for controlling the
J turbulent stream.

BABYS SCALP CRUSTED

"Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the
head and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good They said she had eczema. Her
scalp was a solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was so severe that
she could not rest, day or night. We
had about given up all hopes when we
read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at
once got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a
box of Cuticura Ointment and one bot
tie of Cuticura Resolvent, and fol-
lowed directions carefully. After the
first dose of the Cuticura Resolvent,
we used the Cuticura Soap freely and
applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then
she began to improve rapidly and in
two weeks the scale came off her
head and new hair began to grow. In
a very short time she was well. She Is
now sixteen years of age and pic
ture of health. We used the Cuti-
cura Remedies about five weeks, reg
ularly, and then we could not tell she
had been affected by the disease. We
used no other treatment after we
found out what the Cuticura Remedies
would do for her. j. Fish and Ella M

NEWSPAPERS TAKING 1T UP
Metropolitan DaIIIes Giving Advice
How to Check rheumatism and
Kidney Trouble.

This is a simple home recipe now
being made known in all the larger
cities through the newspapers. 1t iS
intended to check the many cases of
Rheumatism and dread kidney trouble
which have made so many cripples,
invalids and weaklings of 'some Of our
brightest and strongest people.
The druggists everywhere, even in
the smallest communities, have been
notified to supply themselves with the
ingredients, and the sufferer will have
no trouble to obtain them. The pre-
scriptien is as follows: Fluid Extract
Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound
Kargon, one ounce, and Compound
Syrup of Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking well in bottle. The
dose is one teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
Recent experiments in hospital
cases prove this simple mixture eff
fective in Rheumatism. Because OF
its positive action upon the elimina-
tive tissues of the Kidneys, it compels
these most vital organs to filter from
| the blood and system the waste Inn
purities and uric acid which are the
cause Of rheumatism. 1t cleanses the
kidneys, strengthens them and re-
moves quickly such symptoms as
backache, blood disorders bladder
weakness. frequent urination, painful
scalding and discolored urine. It acts
as a gentle, thorough regulator to the
entire kidney structure.

toned to purchase bottle Of medi
cine should not let a little incon
venienee interfere with making this
up. or have your druggist do It for you
