yBE GOVERNORS SURPRISE.

Governor Dix expresses surprise AT the
rcsult of the election. He can hardly
understand" why the voters turned
against his party TO such an overwhelm-
inc degree. 1t is simple enough. 1t IS
or EXPRESSLY includes. n vote or dlsap-
nroyal Of and lack of confidence in the
Governor. The public does not Ike his
.snhordinating himself Ia Murphy. IL
does not ratify his bargains with the
boss by which he obtained the consent
oc the Senate 10 certain appointments
which he desired at the cost OF giving
certain other Offices TO the boss. and by
which he got legislation from the boss
bv agreeing 10 sign other legislation
which the boss wanted.
But the Governor ought to have been
prepared for what happened. His own
party conceded that it expected and de
served rebuke 10y showing its anxiety
to Get through all the jobs that it could
i'm 1911 in the belief that its opportunity
would end with the year. The I1egislat-
urn had to come back 10 Albany in the
fall TO pass Congressional reappor-
tionmcnt and to attempt to jam through
tie charter. Every Democrat admitted
frankly that if tbs legislation was not
passed then it would never he passed
The Governor himself participated in an
"after us the deluge" orgy. Does he now
mean 10 say that he did so without
knowing it?

70 HOLD TRANSFER HEARING
Commissioner Eustis Suggests That His
Colleagues Read Testimony.

When Commissioner John y. Eustis an
nounced Yesterday at the Public Service
Commission meeting that all testimony In
the transfer cases would be submitted next
week and hearing would be held perhaps
by November 20. and suggested that all
the commissioners read the testimony, he
looked directly az Commissioners Cram, but
Mr. Cram blthely replied that he thought
a great deal OF the testimony was injected
20 promote delay, and thus treat the com
mission with contempt.
Mr.. Cram asked later what the Attorney
General had done as result OF the COM
missions request to have the franchise OF
the Steinway tunnel formally declared for
feited. He was told that the secretary Of
the commission would write the Attorney
General.

WHY He ADMIRES GREAT MEN
Small Boy Learns Something Easily
About Washington and Lincoln
and Gets Holiday Besides,

The two latest holidays-the birth
days of Abraham Lincoln and George
Washington-have given the youth of
the country much information about
those two great men. At all the pub
lie schools there were exercises in
honor of each and at some there were
tableaux of some of the events of
their lives. One small boy who spoke
about the tableaux was asked whether
he learned much history at the ex-
ercises
Sure" he replied. "On Lincoln's
birthday we learned all he did. Say,
he was shot in a noppery-house by a
man called-now-Wil Booth. We
learned lot more about him, too. It's
more interestin' hearin' the others
speak than readin' it yourself, an
yer remember better. Yestday we
learned all about Washington. guess
I know all he ever did"
do you look forward to the ex.
crcises?" he was asked.

Rastus was on trial, charged with

cents. He pleaded not guilty, and, as
he was unable to hire an attorney, the
Judge appointed Lawyer Clearem as
counsel. Clearem put up a strong
plea in defense. and Rastus was &C.
quilted.
Counsel and client met q few min
utes later outside the court room.
"Now, Rastus,' said Clearem,
you know the court allows the
counsel very little for defending this
kind of case. I worked hard for you
and got you clear. I'm entitled to
much more pay than I'm getting for
my valuable services, and you should
dig up good-sized fee. Have you got
any money!"

THE ALARMING PREVALENCE
OF ECZEMA
Finds Victims Among Every Race,
Age and Condition..

OF all the diseases of the skin and
scalp which torture and distigure man
kind, three-fourths are eczematous.
Millions are born with eczema, and it
Is the only thing other millions have
left when they die. Neglect in infancy
and childhood, irritating conditions af-
fecting the skin, ignorance of it's real
nature, improper remedies and many
other causes that might be mentioned
have created an eczema which, with
varying severity, has afflicted count
less numbers during their entire lives.
Eczema is skin disease. 1t is not re-
garded as hereditary, nor contagious.
and is impartially distributed among
the rich and poor, the high and low.
The agoniztng itching and burning Of
the skin, causing loss of sleep, is usual
~ the most distressing symptom and is
caused by the bursting of little vesicles
filled with an acrid fluid, which burns
as with fire the denuded skin. New
vesicles form, fill and burst, scales
form upon scales, and crusts upon
crusts until Disagreement is added to
torture.
One of the most successful treat
ments for eczema, whether applied to
the youngest infant or the oldest per-
son, is hot baths with Cuticura Soap
and gentle anointings of Cuticura ONT
ment. For more than a generation,
these pure, sweet and gentle emolli-
ents have proved the most efficient
agents in the speedy and permanent
relief Of all forms of eczemas, rashes,
feelings and irritations of the skin and
scalp. Although Cuticura soap and
ointment are sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, in order that
those who have suffered long and
hopelessly and who have lost faith in
everything may make trial Of them
without charge, a liberal sample of
each viii be mailed free to any ad-
dress, together with 32-page pamph.
