EYES WOULD BURN AND STING

1T is just a year ago that my Sis
ter came over here to us. She had
been here only few weeks when her
eyes began to be red, and to burn and
sting as If she had sand in them.
Then We used all of the home rene
dies. She washed her eyes with salt
water, used hot tea to battle them
with, and bandaged them over night
with tea leaves, but all to no purpose.
She went to the drug store and got
some salve, but she grew constantly
worse. She was scarcely able to look
In the light. At last she decided to
go to a doctor, because she could
hardly work any more. The doctor
said 1t was very severe disease, and
II she did not follow his orders close
ly she might lose her eyesight. He
made her eyes burn and applied cleo
tricity to them. and gave her various
ointments. In the two and half or
three months that she went to the
doctor, we could see very little i'm
provement.
"Then we had read so much how
people had been helped by Cuticura
that we thought we would try it, and
we cannot be thankful enough that we
used It, My sister used the Cuticura
Pills for purifying the blood, bathed
only with Cuticura Soap, and at night
after washing, she anointed her eyes
very gently on the outside with the
Cuticura Ointment. In one week, the
swelling was entirely gone from the
eyes, and after month there was no
longer any mucus or watering of the
eyes. She could already see better,
and in six weeks she was cured"

See Dancer in Pacific.

Redoubled activity is being display
ed by the war department in making
emergency preparations for the de-
Tense of Hawaii.
That the activity is in preparation
for prevention of an attack by Japan
admits of no question, army authori-
ties say, for Hawaii does not need to
be defended against any other nation.
The fact that the department is
making preparations for Hawaii in adj
vance of the Philippines shows that
the army experts have adopted the
theory that the place which should
first be fortified and prepared to re-
sist attack is that which would afford
foe its closest base to the mainland
of the United States.

Famous Eccentric Toasts.

Pitt, at Kidderminster, gave a
toast in compliment to the carpet
manufacturers.
May the trade of Kidderminster,"
said Pitt, "be trampled under foot by
all the world"
A more audacious toast, freighted
with double meaning. has been vari-
ously attributed to Smeaton, Erskine
and to some others. Their after-dinner
trade sentiment was delivered in this
form:
Dam the canals, sink the coal pits,
blast the minerals, consume the manu-.
features, dispense the commerce Of

drawn for an annex to the Court
House. AS soon as the plans and speci-
fications are prepared and approved

ture and build the annex on the north
side of the present Court House, a
twenty foot passageway TO be between
the buildings. Under The present law
mono Of the records can be removed
from the Court House except into such
an annex Tho county officials and
the court cannot go to another build
ing as the law provides where they
shall be located.
1t is proposed that the second floor

courtroom with jury rooms and cham
bers for the judges.
There may be no special session OF

NEW YORK, Nov. 6-Word got
around Sunday night that the Rey.
Willard r Ottarson, of Bethany Con-
gregational Church, would preach on
Christian Science. II was also re-
ported that Mr.. Ottarson's wife, or
some near relative, had been cured by
Christian Science and that the Con-
gregational minister would shortly re-
sign his charge and join the ranks Of
Mrs. Eddy's followers.
death and disease said the
preacher. would not be present cx-
cept for sin. All the evil In the
world Is the result Of sin and as we
believe that sin can be destroyed. it
follows that death will be destroyed
also. Our fathers used TO believe that
we sinned by necessity. just as 80
many now believe that we are sick
from necessity. / believe that man
will assume dominion over disease,
for all truth will come TO It's own de-
spite opposition Man may be able
to reject disease, accident and death.
I'VE believe that God can cast out
sin, but We don't believe that he can
cast out disease. We have become
bound slaves to drugs and a large
part Of the money the working man
brings home goes out to the druggist
for medicines, a large part Of which
