The city fathers are having a
cannon mounted near the base of the
Confederate monument on Main
street. The old gun was recured, we
are informed, several years ago by
the Daughters of the C~oefederacy,
and has been in the city quite a
while. Recently the Veterans took
the matter up with the City Council
and now the gun is going into place,
This with other improvements adds

Last Friday morning the shriII notice
Of the FIRE whistle informed the city
that a blaze was in progress. Very
soon it was learned that Mrs. Ella
Lyons residence on Main Street was
being destroyed by a FIRE which had
started from the cook room, The
bremen responded quickly to the call
and by good work succeeded in con.
lining the hlaze to the one house and
saved a portion Of that. We are
informed that Mrs Lyons carried
only a small insurance not nearly
enough to rebuild or repair her home.

.PITIFuL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"a few days after birth we noticed
an inflamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes. ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot He could not have a stitch Of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced 1t chronic eczema. He is
very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless,
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh SO rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment
mot until commenced using Cuti
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like. as we dared not
wash him, and had been putting one
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hair came off, and left him entirely
bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. l don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before we used the Cuticura Rem.
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such pftiful sight. He would
fuss until l would treat him, they
semed to relieve him so much Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment stand by
themselves and the result they quick
