DIST FIGURED WITH SCALES AND CRUSTS
Eczema from Top of Head to Waist. Suffered Untold Agony and Pain. Neck Was Perfectly Raw. Doc tors Said It Could Not Be Cured.
ASet of the Cuticura Remedies Suc- cessfuI When All Else Had Failed.

"Some time ago l was taken with eczema from the top of my head to my waist It began with scales on my body. l suffered untold itching and burning, and could not sleep. l was greatly diShgured with scales and crlIsts. My ears looked as fl they had been most cut of with razor. and my neck was perfectly raw. I suffered untold agony and pain. I tried two doctors who said had eczema in it's fullest stage, and that IL could not be cured. 1 then tried other rem edies to no avail. At last, trieG set or the genuine CuticuTa Remedies, which cured me. Cu.icura Remedies cured me Of eczema when all else had failed. therefore cannot praise them too highly.
 ''I suffered with eczema about ten months, but am now entirely cured, and l believe Cutieura Remedies are the best skin cure there is" (Signed) Miss Matte J. Shaffer, RED. l. Box s, Dancy. Miss. Oct. p. 1910.
 "I had suffered from eczema about four years when boils began to break out on difte:.nt parts of my body. IL started with a fine red rash.

The itching was almost unbearable at times. l tried different soaps and salves. but nothing seemed to help me until began to use the Cuticura Soap acd Ointment One box of them cured me entirely. l recommended them to my sister for her baby who was troubled with tooth eczema. and they completely cured her baby" (Signed) Mrs. F.

ODD FOREIGN TRADE NEWS.

According to estimates. which are reliable though not official the frog leg industry is worth to the province of Quebec at least $lOO. 900 annually. During 1909 the Montreal markets disposed of more than S200.000 worth of frogs legs. of which probably more than 50 per cent Were produced in this province. The local market prices averaged 40 cents a pound.
 There are numerous rivulets and marshes in this province in which frogs abound. and during the proper season many boys and men earn a fair livelihood catching frogs. Most of the shipments from this consular district go to Boston and New York, usually in small quantities.
 While all Yukon furs have brought higher price during the last few years the difference is shown more with the lynx, mink and marten. There has been an increased demand for these furs lately, particularly so in the case of the lynx. While in 1902 the highest price paid for lynx was $3. in the present year the high est price was $3O50; in both cases the average price was about the same: even as late as 1908 the high est price was $950 and the average price SS5O. On account of the in creased values of lynx furs they are not held for any length of time. but are shipped out in small lots in order to realize on them as soon as possible.

TEMPE
ABUNDANCE OF RAIN
 IN CALIFORNIA STATE
A Tempe Man Saw More Rain There
 Than Anything Else.

R. J. Schweppe returned to Tempe yesterday after an absence of nearly a month. During that time he has seen a great deal of California, but mighty little sunshine. He comes back to Tempe thoroughly convinced that Ari- 'zona has the finest climate in the world
 He went first to Los Angeles and being joined there by his mother and sister. took one of the new coast steamers. Harvard and Yale. to San Francisco. Arriving there. he found it raining. and it continued to rain the entire time the three were in the city MT Schweppe says. however, that the country about San Francisco needed rain badly and the people thcreabouts were delighted with it. When he got back to Los Angeles they found good deal of wet weather there, though it didn't rain as much of the time as it did in san Francisco.

 BUYS TEMPE RANCH

 Hurry a Crop In.

The c. c. Cole ranch. consisting of fifty acres. a mile west of town. and better known perhaps as the Pearman ranch, was sold yesterday through the ageIicy of A. Nielsen x Co. to Charles R. Mcdowell. Mir. Mcdowell arrived here last week from Greeley. Colo, but is not an entire stranger here. having spent one winter and summer in Tempe some seven years ago. He has had a lingering desire to get back to the land of sunshine ever since he left seven years ago and when the opportunity of fered was quick to take it. He has already arranged to have a crop put in and will have men and teams at work on the ranch Monday morning.
 Mir and Mrs. Cole will leave shortly for their former home in the east. where Mir. Cole has business that de- mands his attention.

While many persons speak of buying automobiles the opportunity is so limited that they make the best of the situation and fall back on car riages, traps. dogcarts and other ve- hicles. l believe that a cheap car of known quality could be sold here. but the safest way to introduce the machines would be to form a connec- ton at Shanghai and sell from that point. as the freight charges between Shanghai and Tsingtau are reason able.
 Some months ago a Trinidad clergy man designed a postage stamp ma chine. which has recently been inn proved in London and installed in a postoffice in that city.
 By automatic action, when a proper coin is placed in the slot and the handle pulled it separates a penny stamp from a roll inside the machine and securely fixes it upon the en- velope held in an aperture of the ma chine. The machine is about the size of an ordinary typewriter and stamps envelopes, newspapers or circulars at the rate of 4.000 an hour with seem ingly absolute accuracy. The ma chine will hold 5O.OO0 stamps. and as used each stamp is automati tically registered.

SAY COAL AS FUEL WILL
SOON Be BACK NUMBER
NEW ECONOMIC DISCOVERY
WHEREBY ELECTRICITY WILL
BECOME As COMMON AS OIL
FOR HOUSEHOLD PURPOSES.

1t may be only a rear before all
coal bills will cease to trouble the
~householders. The kick of the
servant against carrying scuttles of
coal up stairs from the cellar will be-
come a memory. There will be no
necessity for washing the sidewalks
of coal dust, as no coal will be de-
livered in the spring of 1912.
1nese surprising statements were
made in the Montauk club, Brooklyn
at the annual dinner of the Electric
club
In place of coal there will be cleo
trical energy. 1t may be used for
heat in the winter and to cool all
living rooms In the summer. If plans
are not all astray the electric wizards
will be able to store electricity In
ordinary boxes in every home and let
it run out as desired for all purposes.
1t was said that experiments careful

Charles w. Price, one or the prop
rietors of the Electrical Review and
of the Western Electrician, one of the
chief speakers. summed up the new
situation in this way:
II dare make the prediction, based
on knowledge OF important expert
ments, that the day is not far distant
when the coal pile In the cellar will be
replaced by the electrical reservoir
