PAINFUL FINGER NAILS CUREr

Il have suffered from the same trou-
bic (painful finger nails) at different
periods Of my life. The first time Of
its occurrence, perhaps twenty-five
years ago. after trying home remedies
without getting helped, asked my
doctor to prescribe for me, but it was
not for a year or more that my nails
and fingers were WELL The inflamma-
ton and suppuration began at the
base Of the finger nail. Sometimes it
was SO painful that I had to use q
poultice to induce suppuration. After
the pus was discharged the swelling
would go down until the next period
Of inflammation, possibly not more
than a week or two afterwards. These
frequent inflammations resulted in the
loss Of the nail. / had sometimes as
many as three fingers in this state at
one time.
Perhaps ten years later I began
again to suffer from the same trouble.
Again tried various remedies, among
them a prescription from doctor of
a friend of mine. who had suffered
from like trouble. This seemed to
help somewhat for time, but 1t was
not a permanent cure; next tried a
prescription from my own doctor, but
this was SO irritating to the sensitive,
diseased skin that I could not use it.
I began to use Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. I had used the Cuticura
Ointment previously on my children's
scalps with good effect. I did not use
the Soap exclusively. but rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment into the base of
the nail every night thoroughly, and
as often beside as could. i had not
used it but few weeks before my
nails were better, and in a short time
they were apparently well. There
was no more suppuration, nor inflam-
nation. the nails grew out clean
again. One box Of Cuticura Ointment
was all that I used In effecting
cure" (Signed) Mrs. I. J. Horton.
Katonah, NJ T., Apr. 10. 1910. On
Sept. 81, Mrs Horton wrote: II have
had no further return of the trouble
with my finger nails"

Daylight Bill Passes

After an hour and half OF debat-
ing, the house yesterday passed the
daylight saloon bill. The amendment
of Representative Bracket, putting
the closing hour at 8 o'clock was
adopted and the bill as amended went
through with the emergency clause at
tached. Should the measure in its
present condition pass the senate, and
it is altogether likely that it. will. the
instrument will become effective i'm
mediately upon the signature OF the
governor to it. There will then be
no chance to invoke the referendum.
Immediately upon the measures be-
ing brought up for discussion. Brack-
EFT offered his amendment which was
followed by a substitute amendment
by Glassner, of Bon Homme. Glass
ner's proposition was to make the
closing hour optional with the COM
munities. He made a strong speech
in defense of his amendment which
was answered by Whiting and Millett,
Representative Vercoe, Of Lead, de-
Tended Brackets proposition and in
the course of his talk took except on
to the published statement trat the
Black Hills delegation favored the all
night saloon. Representative Brown
contended tfat the propos ed. bill would
react, against the progress already
made along the lines OF temperance
Sutley and Hayes followed with talks
for and against the bill and the Glass
ner amendment was put to a vote. 1t
was lost by vote of % to IS. The
Bracket proposition carried by about
the same vote by which the otfer
amendment was lost. Upon roll cal
on the original BILL as amended, the
vote showed it had carried BY 70 to
q. Thus the victors had nine more
votes than were necessary to carry
with the emergency. ~
A careful poll of the senate reveals
that the vote on the daylight saloon
bill in the upper house is going to
be much closer than in the lower body
Friends of the measure express theli
confidence that it will easily carry in
the senate, but Judging by the express
ions of the individual members it is
difficult to see just wherein they are
to figure out ''cinch." etsf
In its present shape the bill would
require at least thirty votes to carry
This would leave fourteen members on
the other side. A poll To-Day sh~wa"
more than sixteen senators oppose
to it, which would be enough 20 de-
feat it unless the emergency claus
Is removed.
Many members who are In sympathy
with the bin are going to vote AGAINST
t because it would so into effect i'm
mediately upon the governors signine
1t, should it pass. The question has
been raised of the injnstice Of collect
ing license with the understanding
that the saloon was to run from ave
until eleven. and then turning and cut
ting three hours from this time allow
ed for doing business. II Is contend
ed that II three hours can be right nv
cut OF. then six or ten can be. Plight
or wrong this point Is going TO be a
bone of contention when the bill has
reached the senate floor.

This is considered one of the most

prepared by Mr.. lssenhuth, but finding
that there we're some features In his
bill which would meet with very hard
opposition. he consented to CONSOLE
date 1t with another good roads plan,

to the legislators.
In the senate today, Curtiss and Nc
Pherson came to sharp words over the
question of putting the North Caro-.

After a lively discussion. the report
of the committee favcring such &C
ton was adopted.
The North Carolina bend money
has been in separate fund and has
been idle. During the last legislature
there was project on foot to return
the money to the people Of the state
of South Carolina. but this was de-
feated. The action of the senate to-
day is the first step toward putting
the money where it will be available

Legislative Notes

The steam roller caught the attempt
to allow state lands to be leased for
period of twenty-five years, and also
several minor measures in the house.
An interesting rumor that the South
Dakota legislature intended to pass a
law prohibiting the moon from getting
full every month has been quieted,
the date for the introduction of new
bills having passed without action.
The senate by vote of 80 to S, has
voted to wipe out free range from this
state, regardless of the slight opposi-
ton on the floor from western members
who wore out their pet doctrine in past
sessions.
| And now we are to have an inspector
of noxious weeks and one for poor
farms and jails. Even If the tele.
phone inspector is abolished and tbs
work of the bee inspector imposed OF
the game warden, we hardly see whers
the saving is affected.
Thursday the statehouse was withou
heat, the coal being exhausted and thu
legislature up to that time having faile'
to appropriate for statehouse mainten
ance. Conservative members expires
themselves as willing to break over an
appropriate money for coal.
There is before the Indiana legisls
ture an anti-treating bin which prs
, vides that one man may give another
, drink only to save life. If the bi
passes, the state win be paved 90 thic
with Carnegie medals flor life saving
that agriculture will BE- seriousl

| The passage of the bill reqiring cattle
men to keep their cattle under control

peculiar incident in the senate when it

Wyman contended for the bill. but Hen
ault declared that it would ruin the
people of Fall River and surrounding
counties. When the measure was fin
ally put up to roll call the vote stood
, SO to in favor of forcing the cattle
man to fence his cattle instead of the
: farmer fencing his crop.

spend nothing for publicity, and it would
