The Confederate Memorial annual
will not be published In the very
near future The particular reason
for this liz the lack OF funds to pay
for the publication. Another reason
Is that the main object OF the pamph-

lie schools on Memorial Day each
year and as II is too late to use the
booklet In 1911. there is no special
reason for the publication to appear
except in time for next Memorial
Day.

PHYSICIAN ADVISES
CUTlCURA REMEDIES

-Four years ago I had places break
out on my wrist and on my shin which
would itch and burn by spells, and
scratching them would not seem to
give any relief. When the trouble first
began, my wrist and shin itched like
poison. l would scratch those places
until they would bleed before l could
get any relief. Afterwards the places
would scale over, and the flesh I'M
derneath would look red and feyerish.
Sometimes it would begin to itch until
1t would waken me from ny sleep,
and I would have to go through the
scratching ordeal again.
Our physician pronounced it dry
eczema I used an ointment which
the doctor gave me, but it did no good.
Then he advised me to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies AS this trouble has
been in our family for years, and is
considered hereditary, l felt anxious
to try to head it off l got the Cuti-
cura Soap, Ointment and Pills, and
they seemed to be just what l needed.
The disease was making great
Roadway on my system until l got
the Cuticura Remedies which have
cleared my skin Of the great pest.
From the time the eczema healed four
years ago, until now, have never felt
any of it's pest, and l am thankful to
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment which
certainly cured me. l always use the
Cuticura Soap for toilet, and I hope
other sufferers from skin diseases will
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment

ers, Mich, Mar. Is, 1911. Although

by druggists and dealers everywhere,

RECORD FEAT IN BUILDING

What is declared to be a record
feat was that recently accomplished in
Waco, Tex. 1t consisted in the cree

Herring Avenue Methodist church,
was commenced at eight o'clock one
morning upon vacant site and fin

Deducting the hour for luncheon, this
means that whole building was put

WARRIOR CHIEF OF CONGO BEST BABY MPME CLIMBER.

The youngest Alpinist in the world
is probably little Flavia Guidini,
daughter of DR.. Joseph Guidini, of
Turin, Italy. She is only four and
half years old, and her mother is
an English woman. On September
4, accompanied by her parents. she
performed what is believed to be an
absolutely unprecedented feat for one
of her years, successfully climbing
several of the peaks OF the Mont
Blanc range.
First, on the previous day. she
reached the Mont Frety but. 1910
feet, making the ascent from Courma-
yeur. Then in six hours she climbed
the Giants Neck, 1920 feet There
she rested a little while, and next,
crossing the glacier Of the Giants
Neck. reached the summit of the Pet
1t Flambeau, 1850 feet The de-
scent to Courmayeur was made in
two days. So far as is known, no

youthfulness has ever even attempt

plished, any one of these climbs

Prejudice Is a
Serious Menace

Prejudice is a hard thing to overcome,
but where health is at stake and the
opinion of thousands of reliable people
differs from yours, prejudice then be-
comes your menace and you ought to
lay it aside. This is said in the inter-
est of people suffering from chronic
constipation, and 1t is worthy of their
attention.
In the opinion of leglons of reliable
American people the most stubborn
constipation imaginable can be cured
by brief use Of Dr. Caldwels Syrup
Pepsin. You may not have heard Of It
before. but do not doubt its merits on
that account, or because 1t has not been
blatantly advertised. 1t has sold very
successfully on word of mouth recon-
mendation. Parents are giving it to
their children today who were given 1t
by, their, parents, and 1t has been truth
fully said that more. druggists use It
personally in their families than any
other laxative.
Letters recently received from Mr..
Henry G. Voskamp, 1908 Decker Ave,
Cleveland, Ohio, and Lydia r. Paulson,
Jewett, Ohio are but a few of thousands
showing the esteem in which DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin is held. 1t is mild,
gentle, non-griping-not violent, like
salts or cathartics. 1t cures gradually
and pleasantly so that in time nature
again does it's own work without out
side aid. COnstpated people owe IT to
themselves to use this grand bowel
specific.
Anyone wishing to make trial of this
remedy before buying it in the regular
way of a druggist at fifty cents or one
dollar a large bottle Gamily size) can
have a sample bottle sent to the home

SOMETHING OF A SLEEPER

The people who tell stories of sleep
ing through all the excitement when
some calamity occurs in the house
next door, will have to take their hats
off to Thomas Sweeney, of Jersey City.
He continued to sleep sOundly when
his own house collapsed under him
Sweeneys house was a two-story
structure, resting on piles. Some time
after he, his wife and seven-year-old
son had retired for the night. the piles
wearied of sustaining their burdens
any longer and let it slip off to the
ground, seven feet below. Policemen
heard the crash several blocks away
and rushed to the building to give
first aid to the injured They found
Mrs. Sweeney and the boy on the sec
ond floor trying to wake the master
of the household. Sweeney yawned
shook the ruins Of the plaster ceiling
from his blankets and turned over to
sleep again.

place can't fall any further, can it?"

ELECTRICITY FROM STARS

Experiments conducted in Ireland,
If they are to be trusted, reveal a
distinct electromotive force exercised
by the stars. Using a rejecting tel
escope of two feet aperture to cOncen-
trate the star rays, and sensitive
electrometers to note their influence.
the experimenter had reason to be-
lieve that they were able not only to
detect, but to measure, the electromo-
tive force of both stars and planets.
To Venus, for example, they as
cribed a force of about seventeen one.
hundredths of a volt, and to Jupiter
force of at least three one-hundredths
of a volt. In the case Of Jupiter only
a part of the planets light fell upon
the eIectrometer, so that the expert
mentors inferred that his entire cleo
trio influence must be much greater
than that stated. Sirius. which ap-
