BABY'S TERRIBLE SUFFERING
baby

when my baby was six months old.
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to itch and
burn. and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began In pimples which
would open and run, making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell off, and the sores were over
the entire body, causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would ome off when / removed his
shirt.
we tried a great many remedies,
but nothing would help him, till a
friend induced me to try the C~uticura
Soap and Ointment. / used the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment but a short
time before | could see that he was
improving, and in six weeks time he
was entirely cured. He had suffered
about six weeks before we tried the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things, and
doctors, too. / think the Cuticura Rem
edies will do all that is claimed for
them, and a great deal more"

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win the
PsupIe'S Confidence

Have you lei stopped to reason
why it is that SO many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out of sight and are soon forgot
ten? The reason is plain-the article
did not fulfil the promises of the man.
ufacturer. This applies more particu-
larry to a medicine. A medicinal prep
aration that has real curative value al
most sells itself, as like an endless
chain system the remedy is recon-
mended by those who have been cured,
to those who are in need Of it.
In a. interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist. says Take
for example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
a preparation 1 have sold for nan
years and never hesitate to recon-
mend, for in almost every case it
shows immediate results, as many of
my customers testify. No other kid
ney remedy that l know Of has so
large a sale"
The success Of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is due to the fact that it fulfls
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder diseases, corrects urinary
troubles and n%eutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

Ruskin PitIed Americans.

1t is not only the half million
bricks of Tatershall that have been
numbered for trans-shipment across
the Atlantic. Ruskin, when he was a
boy, pitied the Americans for being
so unhappy as to live in a country
that has no castles. They will have a
castle now, and no nation likes to
be pitied. But the other importation,
made by Mrs. Gardner as an addition
to her Italian villa near Boston, was
that of an entire chapel as it stands,
with ali its interior furnishings, even
to the half-burned candles in the al
tar. The monks who served the
chapel had been scattered by the
strong hand of the law, and the
building was to be devoted to the
pickax. The courageous American
lady had it packed up in a Venetian
hill country, where it stood, and car
ried down piecemeal and embarked

Saws Missionaries Lack Tact

Professor Frederick w. Williams oil
Yale, who is an expert on China, be-
ieves too many missionaries to the
Chinese are tactless, according to the
New York Sun. To their ~tactlessness
he imputes the small number Of Chi
nese converts.
Professor Williams, at a luncheon
at Princeton said last month:
4 have known missionaries as ig-
norant Of tact as Jim Driscoll was ig-
norant of foot rules.
Jim Driscoll, a farm boy, got a
job in a steel mill, and his boss gave
him a foot rule one day, and said:
Measure me that plate out there
in the yard
Jim at the end of a half hour,
returned and said:
1.-THE plate is the length Of the rule
and three fingers over, with this piece
Of cobblestone. and the stem of my
pipe and my foot from here to here,
bar the toecap.'

The Bishop and the Bow.

The late Bishop Williams of Con-

and 1t was always a joy 10 US young
sters when he came for his visit to my
fathers parish. His anecdotes and
stories eniiVened the whole household.
Once when he was staying with US he
told the following story:
"One Sunday morning, Just after
breakfast, l repaired to the rector'e
study, where / was soon followed by
his little four-year-old son, who climb
ed up on my knee and began to talk
Suddenly the little fellow looked Up
into my face and said: Bissop, do
90 want to see my piggy book?'
"'Yes, indeed said /. So the child
slid down and started to get the book.
When halfway acros the room a sud
den idea seemed to strike him, and,
running back and putting one hand on
my knee, he looked up In my face and
shook his little foreinger at me, whis-
pering: 'Bissop, it's Sunday. We must
do zis on re sly!'"-Harper's Maya

WEIGHING MACHINE FOR NAVY
Porhydrometer Will Tell Dead Weight
of Ships Cargo at
Any Time.

A porhydrometer Is to be installed
on the Neptune, the newest collier
built for the navy. for experimental
purposes. The secretary of the navy
has just authorized an expenditure OF
about $4,000 for that purpose. A por.
hydrometer is an apparatus designed
to weigh with the utmost accuracy
the dead weight placed on board OF
removed from any ship, barge or other
floating vessel to which it is fitted. II
Is based on the principle that a body
Heating in a liquid of whatever den
sity displaces a quantity of the liquid
exactly equal to it's own weight. BY
its application a vessel is transformed
into a gigantic weighing machine. Any
thing added to or removed from it's
cargo is accurately recorded by the
machine In accordance with its
weight in pounds. That applies to hui
mar beings as well as other freight,
so that the absene of a single pas
senger or member of the crew of a
vessel Or the addition Of another per-
o Is recorded.
The weighing is done by means of
an aerometer connected with a vertic-
al tube fitted in the center of the ves-
sci and extending from well below the
water line to well above the load line.
This tube is connected by a pipe with
the outside shell of the vessel SO that
when the valve or cock is opened the
water in which the vessel is floating
has free access to the vertical tube
and rises In it to exactly the same
level as outside the vessel.
In case the apparatus does all that
is claimed for 1t, it will be Of great
value in the handling Of coal for naval
vessels and in the settlement of dis
putes about the quantity of coal
shipped on naval golfers and deliv-
cred to other naval vessels or at for
eign stations.
