SCRATCHED TILL BLOOD RAN

when my boy was about three
months old his head broke out with a
rash which was very itchy and ran q
watery fluid. We tried everything we
could but he got worse all the time,
till it spread to his arms. legs and
then to his entire body. He got so
bad that he came near dying. The
rash would itch so that he would
scratch till the blood ran, and a thin
yellowish STUFF would be all over his
pillow in the morning. / had to put
mittens on his hands to prevent him
tearing his skin. He was so weak
and run down that he took fainting
spells as II he were dying. He was
almost a skeleton and his little hands
were thin like claws.
HE was bad about eight months
when we tried Cuticura Remedies. I
had not laid him down in his cradle
In the daytime for a long while.
washed him with Cuticura Soap and
put on one application OF Cuticura
Ointment and he was so soothed that
he could sleep. You don't know how
glad was he felt better. 1t took one
box of Cuticura Ointment and pretty
near one cake Of Cuticura Soap to
cure him. / think our boy would have
. died but for the Cuticura Remedies
and l shall always remain firm
friend of them. There has been no
return of the trouble. / shall be glad
to have you publish this true state

might prove as invaluable in the mountains OF
Mexico as they have under somewhat similar
conditions in the Philippines.
Similarly the conditions existing at the scene
Of the present campaign are such as to empha-
size the fact that there is yet very important
sphere for the cavalry in the army.
II as though the crisis in this unexpected quar-
ter were a providential answer to the argu-

must be apparent to everybody who Is even

lions that II Uncle Sam is to keep peace From
the Canal to Canada" he will have need of
considerable cavalry force and force pro-
vided with the best possible class OF mounts
There are mountainous localities in the region
to the south OF us where only cavalry could
operate successfully. Neither automobiles nor
yet aeroplanes would serve as a substitute.
And incidentally 1t may be noted that conditions
on the Mexican border have afforded an op

army with its general staff or board of direc-
tors, but in even greater degree Is 1t evidence
OF the value of that comparatively new insti-
tuition, the U. s. Army War College. The news
paperreadng public has been told repeatedly
these past few years that 1t is the special prov
ince Of the officers detailed to duty in the great
red brick building, overlooking the Potomac
in Washington, to have on hand and to keep
constantly up to date detailed plans Of cam
paign for use In the event of war with any
other nation. However, the present instance
affords the country at large its first real ex-
application Of the practical value of the in
formation that is kept under such close guard
in the plan vault and the map rooms of the
War College.
1t was shown by the rapidity with which or
ders were formulated and issued for this sud-
den movement of the largest body Of troops
that has been handled at any one time since
the Spanish war that the War College has de-
pendable information to Just what can be
expected Of the railroads In an emergency.
This showed, too. the wisdom Of Uncle Sans
policy Of keeping his war plans up to the min
ute by revising them every time there is
change of railroad schedules for. in this in
stance, most of the troops travelled by regular
trains instead Of by special traips and the lat
ter would presumably be resorted to only In
the case Of extreme emergency.
Another feature Of the plans for the army In
action for which the big trek to Texas has
proven most beneficial dress rehearsal is that
which contemplates reliance upon the tele-
graph system of the country In the movement
of troops. The of the network Of wires
covering the continent, in the event OF w6r,
has been the subject Of study on the part Of
the military experts that has gone hand In
hand with the investigation as to how the rail
road arrangements could be made to promote
the mobility of the military force. This work
ed out Just as anticipated the day orders were
issued for the advance to Texas and there
poured into the department a continual stream
of kilograms that kept the officials advised In
detail as to the movement of every body Of
troops headed for the rendezvous in the Lone
Star State.
1t may be a triie early to talk about the les
sons to be drawn from this taste Of war but
one is already apparent. II emphasizes that
the field artillery yet has very important
place in our military paraphernala. There has
been a disposition on the part Of some people,
of late years, to regard any considerable
amount OF field artillery as not the most useful
equipment for the American army. Such advo-
Gates took the view that Uncle Sam ought to
put HIS money into heavy coast defense guns

New York, July 15.-Mrs Emma C.
Post, wife of August T. Post, million
aire balloonist and amateur aviator,
confessed in the city court before JUS
tice Schmuck that she is penniless.
Having spent many years of her life
in the Waldorf-Astoria and other ex-
pensixe hotels, she is now forced to
live in cheap rooms and partake of
two twenty-five-cent meals each day.
In 1898 she became the wife of Mr.
Post, who is several years her junior.
They separated about four years ago,
and later Post brought action to an
null the marriage.
Mrs. Post, still handsome woman,
testified today in supplementary pro-

ARAB ENCAMrMENTS.
The Crowded Tents In Which the
Shepherd Warriors Live.

Arabs are true Ishmaelites. TheiI
life is constant wandering. They
live entirely on the produce of their
herds. Their tents are quickly taken
down or put up and easy of transport
They are made of cameIs hair. loosely
woven, supported on poles or long guy
ropes. They protect the occupants from
the hot sun. but not from the rain
and in winter the encampmentS are
uncomfortable places.
The interior is crowded with all the
belongings of these shepherd warriors

oags, rifles and ammunition, hunting
dogs and falcons. The women occupy

tent being open. there is no privacy.
The average tent measures twenty
yards by six.
