CoLoNELs' ILL LUCK.

Louisville will play today, tomor-
NOW and Monday at Milwaukee and
will then jump to Kansas City for a
two-game series, and the fans are
hoping against hope that they can
break their present losing streak in
these series, although so far Mil
waukee has proven to be the sur
prise OF the league, as no one pre-
dicted them to be better than
seventh or eighth at this time.
When you canvass their list of old
timers like Stone, Randall, Clark,
Marshall and Barrett it makes one
wonder that they have not been last
all season. There is an old axiom
that when a team is going bad
everything breaks bad for them, in
Guiding poor umpiring, of which
Louisville has had more than her
share, seeming TO have Hayes all of
the time, coupled with Eddinger,
who tries to even up on bad decis-
Ions. But on the whole our slump
could be traced to one fact, that OF
the injury TO Lennox, although Rob-
lnson's accident and the flight OF
Kroh were also in a measure re-
sponsibIe for our losing streak.
Right now of all times is when the
fans can prove their loyalty by PIN
ming their faith to the management
and club to recover their lost pres
tige, which will not prove hard. as
It Is anybody's race just at present
and everyone a contender.

CH|[D'S HEAD SOLID MASS OF HUMOR It Was Awful. Cried Continually. Had to Hold and Watch Him to Keep Him from Scratching. Suffering Was Dreadful. Had not Used Half a Set of Cuticura Remedies Before Head was Clear
 and Free from Eczema.

"I think the Cuticura Remedies arc the best remedies for eczema l have ever heard of. My mother had q child who had a rash on its head when it was real young. Doctor called it baby rash. He gave us medicine, but it did no good. In a few days the head was a solid mass, a running sore. It was awful, the child cried continually. We had to hold him and watch him Ito keep himl from scratching the sore. His suffering was dreadful. At last we remembered Cuticura Remedies. We got a dollar bottle of Cuticura Resol- vent, a box of Cuticura Ointment. and a bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave the Resolvent as directed, washed the head with the Cuticura Soap, and applied the Cuticura Ointment. We had not used half before the child's head was clear and free from eczema, and it has never come back again. His head was healthy and he had beautiful head of hair. z I think the Cuticura Ointment very good for the hair. It makes the hair grow and prevents falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept. 19, 1910.
 Cuticura Soap and Ointment are for sale throughout the world, but to those who have suffered much, lost hope and are without faith in any treatment, liberal sample of each with 32-p. book let on the skin will be mailed free, on application. . Address Potter Drug & Chem. Corp. Dept. I2B, Boston.

MOUNTAINS IN ART.

Tn the middle ages mountain seen cry had no attraction even for the cultivated classes of Europe The minnesfngers afd other medieval poets. who frequently gave expression to their love of green fields and for ests. and flowers and the songs of birds, were filled with aversion and honor at the sight of the Alps, which they never approached or crossed un- less compelled to do so. Artists of that time seem also to have had no desire to represent them in paintings. It was not until the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries that this aversion began to give place to admiration. In effecting this transformation and esthetic evolution, the German paint CTS, especially Duerer and his pupil. AItdorfer. took the most prominent part, and may be regarded as the ere ators of Alpine landscape painting in German art.-New York Post.

POPULATION OF PARIS.

The census taken. on March gives the population of Paris-that of the city limited by the fortificatiOns-as 2.S47 900 in round figures. this being an increase of a trifle over 1000 since the census of 1900. due mainly to immigration of provincials and foreign CTS. pr Bertillon. says the London Telegraph, gives LIS some figures which show that in I292 the population of Paris, which was then much smaller town, was about 200.00o. In the eigh- teenth century it showed a steady fig ure of half a million, that is to say, up to the outbreak of the great revolution In 1901 it had risen tot 5000. Tn 1851
 it was a little over a million. but ten years later it had reached very nearly 1.7OO,OOO. It passed the figure of two millions in 1881. when the score was 2.269.O00. If the suburban townships were included in the census of last March the total would be a little over 4,OGO,000.
