NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

II have seen the Cuticura Remedies
used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work as nurse,
many skin disease cases came under
my observation, and in every in
stance, always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case in
particular was that of lady friend
Of mine who, when a child, was af-
flicted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely. breaking out
at intervals with severer torture She
could not go to school as the disfgure-
ment looked terrible. 1 told her to get
at once a set Of Cuticura Remedies.
After the use of only one set she was
perfectly well.
"a grown lady friend was afflicted
with salt rheum in, one of her thumbs.
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
salt rheum in both palms Of her hands
every fall Of the year. They used to
be SO painful she could scarcely wet
her hands until she began to use the
Cuticura Remedies which cured her.

of ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck and after
treatment with the outicura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured.
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and l used the Cuticura Oint-
ment 1t made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas it was quite stiff before
I began to apply the Ointment.
Last May 1 had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side of the nail was edging right
down in the side of my toe. cut
the nail out of the cavity 1t made, and
of course applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment to the part affected. 1t soothed
1t and in less than ten nights it was
all healed through constant use of the
Ointment Ten days ago 1 had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. have just
recommended the Cuticura Remedies
to another friend, and she is pleased
with the results and is recovering

Record of John Purcell, Superin-
tendent Topeka Shops.
Entered as an Apprentice %
Years Ago.
YOUNGEST FOREMAN
A Gang Head After Three Years.
Experience.
Other Items Of General Interest
in Traffic World.

It isn't very often that the newspa-
per boys in Topeka have a chance to
Interview, quote OF write anything
about John Purcell, superintendent of
the Topeka shops OF the Santa Fe.
Superintendent Purcell is always
willing to give out anything which
makes a noise like legitimate news and
he is never backward about giving to
the newspapers all that he thinks is
worth public northumberland here is
where the trouble Hes-Mr Purcell has
an altogether too conservative idea of
what constitutes news.
This is the reporters view.
This month the Santa Fe Employees
magazine published an article on the
Santa Fe shops. Furthermore it print
ed a full page photograph of John Pur-
cell And it printed two other pictures
of the popular shop superintendent.
To the Topeka newspaper men and
the outside correspondents who have
been trying for years to steal, snap or
demand a photograph of Superintend-
ent Purcell, this feat of the Employees
Magazine is considered remarkable
The writer of the article, Tom Mac
Rae, AID the editor, Albert Mac Rae,
and the staff photographer, Gay Ham
ilton, have the sincere and envious con-
gratulations of the newspaper fratern-
ity in Topeka.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1911-07-15

But it is the belief that these writers
resorted to strategy to procure these
pictures of the shop superintendent 1t
is known they didn't get them through
a request of Mr.. Purcell. They either
broke into his house or offered him 100
good freight car carpenters as a bride.
The fact that the author of the story
gave a life railroad history of Superin-
tendent Purcell is nothing unusual.
Every man in the Santa Fe shops
knows of the wonderful climb made up
the railroad ladder by John Purcell
Beginning as he did q years ago as
an apprentice in the Topeka machine
shops three years later landing a job
as gang foreman-the youngest fore
man the Santa Fe has ever kept on the
pay roll-no shopman with ambition
in his soul will fail to tell you of Su-
perintendent Purcells work with the
Santa Fe and his claim to the position
he occupies
No pull is recorded on the Purcell
ladder. That is one reason the 3,400
shopmen in Topeka will swear by him.
Another reason is that in all railroad
matters-the shop superintendent is
fair and square and honest with his
men. He will glare at his men with
one eye and wink at them with an
other-but always in a way that wins
him admiration and popularity.
Not long ago superintendent Purcell
went out west on the Coast lines of the
Santa Fe just on an inspection trip.
And in his wake the newspapers
sprinkled California roses and plead
with him to remain in their midst. -"
This, despite the fact that Superintend-
ent Purcell hates only one thing worse
than newspaper man-and that is an
other newspaper man.
If the reporters dared, the newspa
pers would be filled with good stories
centering around superintendent Pur-
cell and his work with the men in the
largest railroad shops in the world.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1911-07-15

The recent session of the legislature
passed a law making it legal to use a
seine in Kansas streams 10 catch fish
There were certain limitations, the
most important being the net must
be of three inch MESH This means
that q person may ha1dily poke his
fist through the seine. Any one who
knows any thing about fish in Kansas
streams will appreciate this Joker,
The law also provides that before any
one can use a seine he must obtain
permit from the state FISH warden and
file a bond that he Will use the seine in
a legal manner.
These restrictions did not make an
impression on Major A. NJ Harvey
erstwhile lieutenant governor and
Would-be fisherman. He has tried for
years to catch fish with hook and line
and has failed signally and here was
his chance. He applied to Warden
Dyche for a permit to seine, filed a
bond, signed by John Waters, Tom
Doran and John Switzer and then
bought a legal seine fer $3.50. The
permit came in due time which gave
him the right to use the net with the
three-inch mesh person ally or with
such assistants as necessary and Major
Harvey swung his hat in the air, gave
three war whoops and shouted now
watch me-"
One day this week a call was issued
which read something like this: Z, A
NJ. Harvey, the only Legally authorized
net fisherman in Kansas hereby invite
you to join me at Wakarusa creek to
assist in dragging from its depths sew
eral wagon loads of fish, I reserving
the right to distribute them as I see
fit. You will be required to act under
my direction as required by law"
The following citizens % Topeka
who were favored with invitations an
swered the call: Judge a. W. Dana of
the district court; J. s. Dean. formerly
United States district attorney; T. F.
Doran, Robert Tasker registerer of
deeds; L. s. Ferry, Fred Cole, James
Vance, an old reside nt of Wakarusa
who was taken along as pilot and the
writer, who is content to be unknown.
