For preserving the hands as we'll
as for preventing redness, roughness,
and chapping, and imparting that vel
vety softness and whiteness much de-
sired by women Cuticura Soap, assist
ed by Cuticura Ointment, is believed
to be superior to all other skin soaps.
For those who work in corrosive
liquids, or at occupations which tend
to injure the hands, 1t is invaluable.
Treatment.-Bathe and soak the
hands on retiring in a strong, hot,
creamy lather of Cuticura. Soap. Dry
and anoint freely with Cuticura Oint-
ment, and in severe cases spread the
Cuticura Ointment on thin pieces OF
old linen or cotton. Wear during the
night old, loose gloves, or a light
bandage of old cotton or linen to pro-
tect the clothing from stain. For red,
rough and chapped hands, dry, fs-
sured, itching. feverish palms, and
shapeless nails with painful finger
ends, this treatment is most effective.

Good Nature Rewarded.

The car was crowded as cars are
sometimes, so the fat man stood in
the yestibule. At his back was an
open window, and the trolley rope
hung idly in a graceful loop on the
outside OF the can and just below his
neck. Fur several blocks everything
was lovely Then the car hit low
place without a corresponding low
place in the trolley wire. The rope
tightened to make up for the dis
crepancy and caught the fat mans
hat brim with sufficient force to hurl
1t out the window.
Did the fat man frown and blame
the conductor? No. He looked at
his fellow passengers. his face
wreathed in smiles, and said:
We'll! I'll be jiggered If that
isn't the slickest thing ever ex-
perienced in all my days"
He pulled the bell rope once, and
when the car had slowed down at
the next corner he pulled 1t again
twice and jumped off before the car
had come to a full stop. The con-
ductor. however, had seen it all.
Evidently he was unwilling that his
good natured passenger should wait
Tor another car and sacrifice
nickel. so he pulled the rope once
and the car waited.-Kansas City

The reading of the Bible was pro-
hibited by action of the board last
Fail, when three Democratic men,
bers voted against its reading and
the only Republican present voted
for it. This action caused a dead
lock, the three Republican members
refusing to agree to any business
unless the three Dmocratic members
recalled the anti-Bible action. This
the Democrats declined to do.
Teachers were not paid, nor were
bills. Finally the Court ousted the
entire board, appointing another

tion, but only transacted needed
AT the February election the
Bible question prevailed and four
Republicans and two Democrats
were elected. The Democrats elect
ed were Miles Lawless, father OF

favored the Bible, was also re-elect-
ed. The new members were Joseph

Aaron Purdy.
Dr. Wills introduced the resolu.
ton to restore the Bible and Mr..

One of the most desperate attempts
on record to influence the stock mar
ket was perpetrated by the publica-
tion in a malicious report, from an
apparently authenticated source, that
Germany had repudiated the Monroe
Doctrine and intended to do as she
pleased in South and Central Ameri-
can affairs.
Fortunately, the absolute falsity of
the report was so speedily and so au-
thoritatively exposed that but little
damage was done, but it is quite pos
sible that the Federal authorities will
proceed against those responsible for
this last rash and stop-at-nothing eff
fort at stock jobbing, with it's mis-
chievous possibility of stirring up en-
nifty between two friendly nations.
Washington bankers believe that
the temporary depression of securi-
ties is due to a misinterpretation of
the Governments attitude toward the
railroads.
Western capitalists declare that
crop prospects. even with a possible
wheat shortage, are most encourag-
ing. Paul Morton's opinion that this
is no longer a one crop country has
found wide approval.
