fore a large audience at the Young Wom-

Criminal Neglect
of Skin and Hair

Cuticura soap and ointment do so much for
poor complexiOns, red, rough hands, and dry.
thin and falling hair. and cost SO little that
ii is almost criminal not to use them. Think
Of the suffering entailed BY neglected skin trou-
bles-mental because Of dishguration-phys icaI
because of pain. Think OF the pleasure Of a
clear skin. soft white hands and good hair.
These blessings are often only a matter of a
little thoughtful, timely care, viz: Warm
baths with Cuticura Soap, assisted by anointings
with Cuticula ointment.

STRETCHED QUARTER INCH.
Thereby Boy Was Enabled to Meet
the Nays Requirements.

ST. PAUL. March 9.-The happiest boy
in st. Paul yesterday was Frederick Mus
sci. eighteen years old Tuesday, whose
ambition to join the navy was almost
quashed by the fact that he lacked a
quarter of an inch in height. Frederick
was notified yesterday by officers Of the
recruiting station at Minneapolis he will
be accepted.
Not discouraged because he was one
quarter Of an inch shorter than the five
feet two inches required. Mussel con-
suited friends in a local fire station.
One fireman advised hitting the lad on
the head to raise bump; another. more
practical, evolved a machine, with a
pole and rope attachment, by which the
boy was able to hang while firemen
pulled on his legs. The treatment was
heroic but effective. Mussel reached the
five-foot-two-inchm mark.

No Hope for Brattleboro.
The authoritative statement made
Friday by Engineer George M.
Thompson of the B. and M
railroad that President Mellen of
the New Haven system ordered
him to proceed at once with the
building of the proposed link of road
from Hinsdale, N. H., to Brattleboro
and continuing on the New Hamp-
shire side of the Connecticut river to
some point in either the towns of
Walpole or Westmoreland, N. H., on
the line of the Cheshire division of
the Boston and Maine dispels further
hope that the proposed B. and M. ex-
tension will be built in Vermont The
building of the first section of the
road will cost approximately $1,70O,-
600. 1t is expected that the contract
will be awarded the last of this week.
The contract will call for the con-
struction of roadbed for a double
track for distance of 10 miles and
will also include the building of a
double track steel bridge across the
Connecticut river at point near this
village to connect with the Vermont
valley road and one across the Ashue-
lot branch of the B. and NJ in the
town of Hinsdale, N. H. President
Mellen also ordered his engineer to
complete the survey for the link
from Windsor to West Lebanon, N
H., and construct the road as soon
as it could be done

While in Europe it is probable
that representative Foster will visit
London, where he will be the guest
of honor of the British foreign Office
as an official representative of the
foreign and diplomatic service of the
United States. From this fact it is
likely that his friends on this side
will hear of him as the guest at off,
cia1 functions where he will be ex-
pected to speak. After attending the
meetings of the International Insti-
tute of Agriculture at Rome he will
at once proceed to London via Milan,
Lausanne and Paris.
The Vermont association of Wash

ming of Friday, the 21st. This has

in that city, and Vermont's annual

ing by many residents outside the
members of the society. 1t is ex-
pected that 500 tickets will be sold,
and at SO cents each this will barely
cover the cost of the entertainment in
all it's details. Beside the sugar in
liquid and solid form the special
home eatables which are naturally in
cluded in such a function will be pro-
vided in profusion. A flow of soul
will also be feature, which will in
clude music and addresses by invited
guests.
