Find Of VoItaire Letters

VoItaire was in Berlin in 173I and
became involved in a lawsuit with a
Jew named Hirscheu. Cocceji was
one Of the judges who tried the case
and he kept the papers, which con-
tanned autographs letters of VoItaire.
The lawsuit between VoItaire and
Hirschell created a sensation in its
time and it may be interesting to read
ers to refer to Carlyle's Frederick the

considerable length, although a good

the case had become available since

DOCTOR PRESCRIBES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

81 wish to let you know of a couple
of recent cures which I have made
by the use of the Cuticura Remedies.
Last August, Mr.. of this city
came to my Office, troubled with a
severe skin eruption. It was dermatitis
in its worst form. It started with a
slight eruption and would affect most
parts of his body, thighs. elbows,
chest, back and abdomen-and would
terminate in little pustules. The itch
ing and burning was dreadful and he
would almost tear his skin apart, try
ing to get relief. 1 recommended all
the various treatments / could think
of and he spent about fifteen dollars
on prescriptions, but nothing seemed
to help him.
'In the meantime my wife, who
was continually suffering with slight
skin trouble and who had been try
ing different prescriptions and meth
DDS with my assistance, told me she
was going to get some OF the Cuticura
Remedies and give them fair trial
But as 1 did not know much about
Cut1cura at that time 1 was doubtful
whether it would help her. Her skin
pecially on the fingers, wrists and
arms. I could do nothing to relieve
her permanently. When she first ap-
piled the warm baths. Of Cuticura
Soap and applications Of Cuticura
Ointment she saw a decided improve
ment and in a few days she was COM
pletely cured.
st lost no time in recommending
the Cuticura Remedies to Mr..
and this was two months ago. told
him to wash with warm baths Of the
Cuticura Soap and to apply the Cuti-
cura Ointment generously. Believe
me, from the very first days use of
the Cuticura Remedies he was greatly
relieved and today he is completely
cured through their use. have great
faith in the Cuticura Remedies and
shall always have a good word for
them now that I am convinced Of
their wonderful merits" (Signed) B.

PUNCHING HIS HARD LUCK
Sufferer From Toothaehe Summoned

morning who knocked me out Of two
hours work on day when I have
nothing to do anyhow, and viii make
me work overtime tomorrow, when ]
shall be crowded with engagements.
He was bowling with a toothache
Better come around and have 1t at
tended to- I said.
Cant do it today he said, I'm too
busy"
But you can't work when you are
crazy with the toOthache,' I argued.
"1Oh, yes I can said he. There
are half a dozen other things I want
done to me that hurt pretty bad, and
if 1 have them done when my tooth
is on the rampage, they won't seem so
bad, because one hurt will neutralize
the other. 1 always take advantage
of toothache to dispatch those dis
agreeable jobs

stand that kind Of philosophy, but ap-
parently that man is going to get

KISSING Breach of Peace.

The better half of a respected citi-
zen of New Jersey recently had the
temerity to hale her lord and master
before the court on a charge of having
kissed her against her will. For this
heinous offense this shameless Jersey
benedict was bonded over in 500 bail
to keep the peace, and, moreover,
was warned by the judge never again
to kiss his wife without first obtaining
her consent in due form. If he is any
kind of a man, probably he will never
want to kiss her again.-Washingt

A trial package of Munyon's Paw Paw
Pills Will be sent free, to anyone on re-
quest Address Professor Munyon, SD &
jefferson SITS, Philadelphia, Pa. II you are
in need of medical advice, do not fail to
write Professor Munyon. Your communi
cation will be treated in strict confidence,
and your case will be diagnosed as care
fully as though you had personal inter
view.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are unlike
all other laxatives or cathartics. They
coax the liver into activity by gentle
methods. They do not scour, they do
not grippe, they do not weaken, but they
do start all the secretions of the liver
and stomach in a way that soon puts
these organs in a healthy condition and
corrects constipation. In my opinion
constipation is responsible for most all
ments. There are % feet of human
bowels, which is really a sewer pipe.
When this pipe becomes clogged the
whole system becomes poisoned, caus-
ing biliousness, indigestion and impure
blood, which often produce rheumatism
and kidney ailments. No woman who
suffers with constipation or any liver
Ailment can expect to have a clear
complexion or enjoy good health. If
I had my way I would prohibit the sale
of nine-tenths of the cathartics that are
now being sold for the reason that they
soon destroy the lining of the stomach,
setting up serious forms of indigestion,
and so paralyze the bowels that they re-
fuse to act unless forced by strong
purgatives.
Munyon's Paw Paw Pills are q tonic
to the stomach, liver and nerves. They
invigorate instead of weaken; they en-
rich the blood instead of impoverish
it; they enable the stomach to get all
the nourishment from food that is put
into it.
These pills contain no calomel. no
dope; they are soothing, healing and
stimulating. They school the bowels
to act without physic.
