MINERS TRYING EXPERIENCE

To have been almost buried alive
and forced to keep in one position for
20 hours on end was the trying
experience of George Hill, miner
at Peak Hill, N. s. w. Hill with two
others, had to put in a shot, which
caused a slide. He was carried along
with the earth into an old working.
His mates got down and succeeded in
removing seven feet of earth from
his head, but they found it dangerous
to continue, as the earth was liable
to come in and smother them. They
decided to put IN a drive at the back
of the $50 foot level. After II hours
of hard work they opened the
wall at his head. 1t then took three
hours to remove the debris away to
get him out, the greatest care having
to be exercised to prevent the loose
stuff smothering him. A rope was
attached to Hill, and at last he was
pulled out amidst the hearty cheers of
his fellow-miners.

PEELED HIS WAY OVER OCEAN

There are a variety of ways of work
ing ones passage on shipboard, but
the plan adopted by G. Pullman, of St.
Louis, doubtless establishes a prece-
dent. Mr. Pullman, a young man of
education, crossed the Atlantic in the
first cabin with some $4,000 in cash
to meet the expenses of a short so
journ in Europe. He had neglected
to secure his return passage. His liv-
ing expense in London and Paris
proved higher than anticipated, and
the Atlantic presented a formidable
barrier to his return home. Mr. Pull
man was obliged to forego the lux
uries Of first cabin, second, or even
third cabin, and finally shipped as a
peeler of potatoes on the President
Lincoln. BY crossing in first cabin
and returning in the scullery, Mr..
Pullman doubtless established a new
sea record Of its kind.

MARKS ANGER OF EMPEROR

There stands in Pekin, China, a
handsome arch of native style of archi-
lecture which marks the spot on
which Baron Won Kettler was assas-
sinated on June 20, 1900. The inscrip-
tion ttranslatedl reads: This monu-
ment has been erected by order of the
Emperor of China to the memory Of
the Imperial German minister, Che
Waller Clemens Won Kettler, who, on
this spot, was done to death by the
villainous hand of a murderer, on June
20, 1900. In everlasting memory of
his name. In continual acknowledge
ment of the anger of the German EN-
peror for this atrocity. AS a warning

kind, three-fourths are eczematous.
Millions are born with eczema, and 1t
Is the only thing other millions have
left when they die. Neglect in infancy
and childhood, irritating conditions af-
fecting the skin, ignorance Of its real
nature, improper remedies and many
other causes that might be mentioned
have created an eczema which, with
varying severity, has afflicted count
less numbers during their entire lives.
Eczema is a skin disease. 1t is not re-
garded as hereditary, nor contagious,
and is impartially distributed among
the rich and poor, the high and low.
The agonizing itching and burning OF
the skin, causing loss Of sleep, is usual
ly the most distressing symptom and is
caused by the bursting Of little vesicles
filled with an acrid fluid, which burns
as with fire the denuded skin. New
vesicles form, fill and burst, scales
form upon scales, and crusts upon
crusts until Disagreement is added to
torture.
One of the most successful treat
ments for eczema, whether applied to
the youngest infant or the Oldest per-
son, is hot baths with Cutlcura Soap
and gentle anointings Of Cuticura oint-
ment. For more than a generation,
these pure sweet and gentle emolli.
ents have proved the most efficient
agents in the speedy and permanent
relief of all forms Of eczemas, rashes,
itchings and irritations of the skin and
scalp. Although Cuticura soap and
ointment are sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, in order that
those who have suffered long and
hopelessly and who have lost faith In
everything may make trial Of them
without charge, liberal sample OF

of the various forms of eczema, as
well as other affections of the skin,
