Americans Taxed.


Sugar trust has issued a statement
to the public. 1t relates to granulated
sugar and other kinds and perhaps
should be taken with granulated salt.
Yet let us hear the explanation:
"Granulated sugar is now quoted for
export at three and one-tenth cents q
pound against a domestic price of
four and nine-tenths cents a pound.
The difference is caused by the refund
by the government Of the larger part
Of the duty previously paid upon the
ray sugar"
But hold on, oh most serene and
saccharine explainers. Tell us at
what point of the transaction Ameri-
can sugar buyers are benefited by
your refund? Thanks to the protec-
tive tariff, foreign consumers get our
refined sugar at one and e~ight-tenths
cents a pound less than we pay for it.
Here is another instance, then, where
the protected American pays more for
goods sold him by Americans than I'M
protected alien foreigners pay for
similar goods sold them by the same
patriotic Americans. And as con-
sumption of sugar in the United States
amounts to about 1000, 100000 pounds
Of the raw article, it is clear ''protec-
ton costs domestic consumers
about $12o,oOO,OOO annually,
Well?
Perhaps the protective tariff does
not again hit the American citizen be-
low the belt?
Protective tariff! Bosh! It is a
bullying and a cowardly tariff.

TINY BABY'S PITIFUL CASE

"Our baby when two months old
was suffering with terrible eczema
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked just like a skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothes
on her. At first it seemed to be a few
mattered pimples. They would break
the skin and peel off leaving the I'M
derneath skin red as though it were
scalds. Then a few more pimples
would appear and spread all over the
body, leaving the baby all raw without
skin from head to foot. On top of her
head there appeared a heavy scab a
quarter Of an inch thick. 1t was aw-
full to see so small a baby look as she
did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid
to put his hands to the child. We
tried several doctors remedies but all
failed.
Then we decided to try Cuticura.
BY using the Cuticura Ointment we
softened the scab and it came off. I'm
der this, where the real matter was,
by washing with the Cuticura Soap
and applying the Cuticura Ointment,
a new skin soon appeared. We also
gave baby four drops Of the Cuticura
Resolvent three times daily. After
three days you could see the t.by
gaining a little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
baby is four months old. She is a fine
picture of a fat little baby and all is
well. We only used n cake of Cuti-
cura Soap, two boxes of Cutieura Oint-
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent. If people would know what
Cuticura is there would be few suffer

WIND OF 100 DAYS.

From the Singapore Free Press.
The "Bad-i-sad-o-b ist-rog,'' the famous
wind Of 12O days Of Seistan, Is the one
feature of the country lying at the juno
ton of Persia, Afghanistan and Balu-
chistan. This appalling wind dominates
life from May to September. 1t prevails
over a stretch of country hundred
miles wide and renders existence almost
unbearable. 1t may vary slightly from
year to year, as to strength and dura-
ton, but invariably comes from north
northwest, 324 degrees west and de-
grees on either side of that is its great
est variation.
In quiet years the wind may not ex-
coed 65 miles an hour and is seldom less
than 40. In bad years it reaches 12O
miles an hour. The country Is dominat-
ed by it. Houses have to be built with

Cattle and donkeys have pieces Of felt
