Some persons win not work without

The two loafers saluted respectfully

They said they were. He walked a
little beyond them. and stood perfect

After several embarrassing minutes.
the two laborers shuffied of the fence
and picking up heavy rusty iron
beam which happened to be lying on
the ground near them. went down one
of the streets between the shops. and

A few minutes later the admir- al ap-

But they could not escape, for Leutze
was on their trail. He kept up the

THE BLACK HAND AND CARUSO
Famous Tenor Tells How the Society
Made Him the Object Of It's
Solicitous Attentions.

Enrico Caruso has been telling the
English newspapers more details Of
how 1t happened that the Black Hand
made him an object of its solicitous
attentions during the opera season In
New York. He is inclined to believe
that there would never have been any
trouble at all II 1t hadn't been for the
TACT that he has charitable nature.
According to Caruso. the Black
Hand would not have been tempted to
bother him If 1t hadn't been for an
Italian barber in New York The bar
ber shaved the singer frequently and
well and Caruso was pleased with his
work. So when he heard the barber
one day deploring the lack Of sufFi-
cient cash TO enable him to take trip
back to Italy to see old friends once
more Caruso delighted the man by
making him present of $500.
Il wish I had never done IT," says
Caruso. MY Italian barber was so
overcome with delight that h. singed
all the hair on one side OF my head
and cut half my chin OFF that morn
Ing. Then he went away and told the
newspaper men all about 1t Next day
l got fifty letters each asking me for
$500. Next week got twice the num-
Der and several threatening letters
from the writer's of the first batch.
And few days afterward the Black

Boy Tortured by Eczema.


When my boy was six years old, he
suffered terribly with eczema. He
could neither sit still nor lie quietly in
bed, for the itching was dreadful. He
would irritate spots by scratching
with his nails and that only made
them worse. A doctor treated him
and we tried almost everything, but
the eczema seemed to spread. It
started in a small place on the lower
extremities and spread for two years
until it very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.
Finally | got Cuticura Soap, Cuti-
cura Ointment and Cuticura Pills and
gave them according to directions I
used them in the morning and that
evening, before | put my boy to bed,
used them again and the improve

prising, the Inflammation seemed to
be so much less. | used two boxes Of
Cuticura Ointment, the same of the
Pills and the Soap and my boy was
cured. Ny son is now in his sew
enteenth year and he has never had

Duke of the Abruzzi's Expedition.

Leaving Rome on May It'll, 1899,
His Royal Highness went to Norway

being fitted out there, and had been
rechristened the Polar Star. 1t
started from Christiana on June 18th,
arrived at Archangel on the goth, to
ship the dogs which We're to complete
the crew and serve provisions and
sailed again on July 18th.
The Polar Star was headed for the

it is admitted, was not a good one,

The ice-ffeld in the bay. driven by
the ice-pack, had risen all around

and had reached up to the kennels,
against the doors of which some large
foes had been piled up, thus prevent

alarm the crew ran to extrlcate them
by breaking the inner partitions and
letting them out on the side OF the
land. A pressure-ridge had been
formed along the coast with num-
mocks fifteen to eighteen feet hlgh.
Under the strong pressure OF the Ice

about ninety feet and had risen at the

Some writer's claim that sheep
ought not to be pastured on land
more than one year before it is
plowed and reseeded, owing to para
sites, but it has been shown that
sheep have been kept free from para
sites by the use of tar, turpentine
and salt. Bore two-inch holes in a
pine log, fill with salt and smear tar
around the top, and sheep will tar
their noses while eating salt. Sheep
soon learn to eat tar. One sheep
raiser keeps it naked with turpentine
and salt, where it is accessible at all
times About one-half pint of tur-
pentine to one peck of salt is the
proportion.
