DISFIGURED WITH ECZEMA

Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his eays. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his lit.
tie face was disfgured very much.
We hardly knew what he looked like.
The face looked like raw meat. We
tied little bags of cloth over his
hands to prevent him from scratching.
He was very restless at night, his
little face itched.
I'VE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and at
once bought the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly We saw the re-
suit. and after four weeks the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. II.

CHARITY AND CHEWING GUM

According to a statement before
meeting Of the Women's Foreign Mis-
sionary society OF the Presbytery OF
Washington an interesting statement
regarding the money spent for chew
ing gum and that given to charity was
made. The speaker was Miss Mary
w. Kerr Of Harrisburg, Pa. in connec-
ton with the topic of 9'Frenzied FL
nance in Missions" In urging the So
ciety to be more liberal in its contri-
buttons to charitable work, she said:
For every $4,000 contributed to
charity, $4,000 is spent for chewing
gum"
The statement passed almost un-
noticed except by few, who saw the
pertinence and logic of the remark.

fully be said that de --Jngpre has ever taken his
own medicine in this respect. for all that he has
won financial as well artistic success.
1t might be supposed that a man who after haV
ing passed the haf-century mark was plung1ns
into a new field Of artistic endeavor would have
his hands full, but not the resourceful Paul de
Longpre With a couple Of operas under way and
Sousa's band and other concert organizations play
ing his lighter compositions and clamoring for
more, the artist composer is even now finding time
to act as the chief promoter of new movement of
which he is also the originator and which is known
as a crusade for national art. This Is purely a
labor of love the part Of the king of flower
painters-an effort to further public-spiried
movement having for it's object the education Of
the whole American people in art and the better
appreciation of art works whether executed by
Americans foreigners
The chief aim of the movement, aside from
the educational benefit which must inevitably
to the whole people who are thus enabled to
understand and appreciate art is to engineer the
public sentiment that will result in the extending
of governmental aid to the of art Mr.. de
Longpre feels that 1t is the lack of this govern
mental aid and endorsement of the of art
in any of its branches that is mainly responsible
for the fact that the United States is far be-
hind many Of the European countries in the mat
ter of art. He would like to the people
through their federal government extend and de-
veop the national art gallery, in which project
beginning has lately been made and he would like
to through the same means the establishment
OF national school of painting national conser-
vatory of music and national school Of sculpture.

For long period has Paul de Longpre
been closely identified with the art life of the
United States, and particularly of southern Cali
fornia, where he has long made his home, that
many persons overlook the fact-which might In
deed be suspected from his name-that he Ia a
native of sister republic OF France. Born In
Paris some aftyfve years ago. he was one OF ten
children and enjoyed few early advantages OF
an educational character However as young
boy he manifested talent, seemingly amounting
almost to genius, for the painting Of floral sub
jects, and he spent a portion of each year in the
country near Paris in order to study at first hand
the floral subjects he loved SO well. Indeed he
would probably have given up his whole time to
sketching in the luxuriant flower gardens Of this
favored region had it not been for the fact that
he had his living to make and did 1t by the most
prosaic but vastly more remunerattve occupa-
ton of decorating fans.
All the while, of course. his heart was in the
flower painting and his efforts attracted atten-
ton from the outset. In 1876 he won the su-
preme honor of having his pictures hung in the
Paris salon and similar recognition came on sew

CREDIT Due PRESIDENT TAFT

The administration has by its suit
recently begun at Trenton, n. j., at
tackled the very citadel of the trusts
it's citadel, because the men who con-
troll that trust control the majority Of
our leading railroads, our leading
banks and large section of big ous-
mess generally. The steel trust is
the common meeting place or center
from which much of the big business
of the country can be controlled. Be-
cause of its great power, congress has
feared to remove the sheltering tariff.
Because of its control over all kinds
of business, business men have ear
ed dull times in case it should be
attacked. Because of it's large hold
ings of ores both north and south,
its competitors have been compelled
to 'be good" There was little dis
turbance in business when the oil
trust or the labor trust was attack
eu. Inelr stock showed but little var
iation; but when the steel trust was
sued, a shiver passed throughout the
financial world.
For his courage in attacking this
citadel President Taft deserves the
support of men of all classes. When
he deals with men, he often wobbles;
for he does not know men. When he
deals with politicians he does some
queer things; for the politicians can
easily fool him. But when he starts
to enforce the law he seems to be
safe and sane for he is an excellent
lawyer and an experienced judge.
The question which this suit pre-
SCENTS is not whether trusts or great
organization of capital shall continue

development of the country Ga large

It will not be settled soon. The
highest minds in the country Will con-
tend that there is sort of divine
right lodged in strong, able men with
large resources to conduct the busi-
ness of the entire country; that they
have the power, financial and other
wise, and can be trusted to do this
large business better than the pao-
pie themselves.
The ordinary business man is not
likely to look with favor upon this
suit, for exactly the same reason that
the same class of men opposed the
civil war, namely, that it would dis
turb business. For the same reason
they did not favor the coming of peace
because 1t would tend to disturb busi-
ness. Laboring men will be disposed
to side with the trust, for the reason
that it's dissolution and the restora-
ton of conditions as they were prior
to its formation in 1891 would put
check on manufacturing, throw men
out of employment and lower wages
The president should have the sup
port of the people, even if It does
bring duller times and lower prices;
for sooner or later it must be deter
mined whether this government is a
