A LIFETIME OF
: DISAGREEMENT
Mothers Should Realize What
Neglect of Skin Troubles
May Mean to Children.

A lifetime of Disagreement and suffer-
ing often results from the neglect, in
infancy or childhood, Of minor affec-
tions Of the skin and scalp. A mother
overlooks little rash OF attempts some
simple treatment and in a day, perhaps,
the little one is covered with severe
eczema or other distressing eruption.
Then the struggle for a cure begins.
A multitude of remedies are tried,
doctor after doctor consulted and hos
pitfalls visited, but too often the suffering
extends, without substantial relief, from
days to weeks, weeks 10 months and
months to years. Added to this is the
ever-present fear that the itching, burn
ing and dishguration will become
chronic, marring future welfare and
making life miserable.
In the prevention Of the simple skin
affections from which all this suffering
so often arises, and in establishing a
condition of skin health, mothers are
assured that nothing is purer, sweeter
or more effective than Cuticura soap.

greater still, if possible, is the success
OF these simple household remedies in
the treatment of the severer skin

warm bath with Cuticura soap and
gentle application Of Cuticura ONT
ment the itching and burning usually
cease, the child falls into q refreshing
sleep, the mother rests and for the first

BOOK OF RULES In
THIRTEEN TONGUES

Employees Of Pennsylvania
R.R. Shown in Novel Way
GUARDING THE WORKMEN
AGAINST FATALITIES

Because Of the many tongues max
ing up the working forces Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company n
new book of rules has been issued,
which is translated and printed in
thirteen different languages. The is
suing Of the book shows the diversi-
fled nationalities represented among
the thousands of employees, and the
care taken by the company to safe
guard against injury among other
than the English-speaking workmen.
The book is of pape- back pamph-
let form with forty-two pages and
cover. II is intended for the use and
government of employees working on
and about the tracks. Tho rules are
sixteen in number and in the English
part of the book takes up three pages.
Following the English comes the
translation into German language,
followed in turn by the Greek, Hun
garian, Italian. Lithuanian, Polish,
Slovak, Swedish, Croatian. Bulgarian,
Roumanian and Bohemian.
The rules caution all employees in
the necessity Of care TO avoid acct
dent. and explain the conditions met
with along the tracks as 10 the move
ment of train and the many details
necessary for men to know whose oc-
cupation makes it necessary TO be on
and about the tracks of the company,
almost constantly. and hereby being
constantly in jeopardy of their lives.
Rule Is requires every employee OF
this class TO supply himself with a
copy of the rules. and Rule 16 says
any employe who while on duty is
careless about the safety of himself
or others. or who disregards warn
ings, is subject to discipline.
Nationalities Of one particular class
are often found in groups, or colonies,
in various sections of the country In
one section the employees may be prac-
tically all Lithuanians. while at an
Other portion of the road they may
be Slovak, Polish or some other ma
tionality. H. is TO meet the wants OF
all these people that the book is is
sued. and its supply is made obliga-
tory to the workman himself. and II

Words of Wisdom
Trade Union News.

Trade Union News.
It is not often that we can endorse
the public utterance of lawyer. but
the sentiment expressed by F. Kurtz.
the well-known attorney of this city,
in Hanover Church on Sunday last,
is deserving of commentator. He
said in part: "The Declaration of
Independence that declares all men
endowed by the Creator with natural
rights controls the entire foundation
of popular government. Our fathers
thought they had solved the problem
of popular government, but changed
conditions bring new problems to be
solved
Mr.. Kurtz urged upon all citizens
to realize that they have duties and
responsibilities, as well as privileges.
And he urged as a preliminary step
towards good citizenship. the imme-
diate afiiliation of our citizens with
the Civic Association, regardless Of
their political views. We heartily
endorse the suggestion of Mr.. Kurtz.
Again, we urge the active men in all
bodies Of organized labor to join the
Civic Association"

R VIRTUE of his holding the position OF
~ temporary presiding officer OF the Senate
Mr.. Monaghan will preside at the joint session OF
the Legislature which will elect United States
Senator. This will be an unusual incident, though
not without precedent. member OF the oppos-
Ing party presided at the session some years ago
when Colonel DUPONT claimed election which
the Democrats prevented by forcing Acting Gov
ernor Watson to enter the session during the bal
otng and to resume his duties as the presiding
officer of the Senate and therefore OF the joint
session. position that he abandoned when he be-
came Acting Governor on the death OF Governor
Joshua n Marvil.
The Republicans however, have ample major
tv on the Joint ballot and there is no likelihood
of a mx-up no matter which way Senator DreNler
votes as TO the senatorship. We presume, Of
t6urse that he will vote for the choice of the Re
publican caucus, if he still Processes to be mem
ber Of the Republican party and intends to act
with the party that elected him to his present
position.
The Republican Senators who determined to
break the deadlock by voting for Democrat are
receiving much commentator in various parts of
the State as they should receive. They put the
welfare Of the State above everything else and
this is as il should be- But il is in line with many
of the acts of the Republicans in the past Whether
the Legislature will perform It's duties in a broad
minded and liberal spirit depends upon the conduct
of the Democrats. Because they arc the minority
party does not mean that the Democrats are free
OF responsibility for good legislation The split
up in the Republican majority of the Senate con-
sdering that Mr.. Drexler is an uncertain quantity
on measures of legislation, makes it impossible
TO put through partisan legislation and the Gen
eral Assembly is in the same position practically
as il was during the last session when the Demo
Gratis controlled the House.
We don't know that any partisan legislation has

cussion about IT, so that the loss of Mr. Drexler,
if il is TO be loss, should not seriously affect leg
