BARYS HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six
months old he broke out on his head
with little bumps They would dry
up and leave scale. Then it would
break out again and it. spread all over
his head. All the hair came out and
his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over in red bumps
and it kept spreading until it was ON
his hands and arms. bought several
boxes of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time. He
had it about six months when friend
told me about Cuticura. / sent and
got bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a
cake of Cuticura Soap and a box Of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to improve.
He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes of
Ointment and three cakes of Soap he
was sound and well, and never had
any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. / don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to use
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fail to cure what put
them on. / think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise any one to
use it. Cuticura Soap is the best that
have ever used for toilet purposes"

These are the days for sausage
up his nose at sausage, for sausage
is good when it Is made right. 1t is
the response of the food world to the
polar breeze that blows through the
morning. 1t is as sweet as a plate
Of strawberries on a mild June day.
But 1t must be made right. Good sau-
sage is an art product. 1t is made
up of judgment, taste and skill. 1t is
a combination of ingredients that cor.
relate with one another as the fra.
GRANGE and the blush of the rose. The
butcher doesn't understand this. Gen.
orally he throws in some scraps and
odds and ends, and especially the odds,
dabs of some salt, pepper and sage,
grinds 1t out, and the confiding Gus.
toner buys it because it is sausage,
says the Ohio State Journal He does't
like 1t very well, but he eats it,
and everything goes. The 9th.
er day we saw customer in a meat
shop direct the making of his own
sausage. He selected the meat, simon
pure cuts off the best parts, had it
ground and took it home to season 1t
there. That man knows how to take
care of himself. He knows art from
a bulls foot. He appreciates the
true sentiment of sausage.

TOO MANY HALF-BAKED LAWS
Illinois Attorney General Says Assem-
bly, Pass Meaningless Acts That
Cause Endless Trouble.

Springfield, Ill. = Illinois Is not
hampered with old laws, but half
baked and meaningless acts, passed
by the general assembly cause endless
trouble. This information is contained
in the biennial report Of Attorney
General Stead, which was submitted
to Governor Deneen.
The report also contains sugges-
lions and recommendations which will
be sent to the general assembly next
week.
Laws are enacted, repealed, amend
ed and reconstructed in bewildering
profusion," the report says.
Schemes to regulate and in many
instances revolutionize the courts, pro-
LESSONS, different occupations and
various departments of state govern
ment, are worked out over night
rushed into type under title of an en-
acting clause and introduced as bills
the next morning. From these and
perhaps other causes has resulted
conglomerate mass of legislation
which is inconsistent, ambiguous, often
meaningless and sometimes vicious"

BANKER IS Fooled
ROBINS ATTEMPTS AT SUICIDE
JUST BEFORE ARRANGEMENT
I'M COURT FAILS.
SWALLOWS DEADLY POISON
Takes Same Kind of Drug With Which
DR.. Crippen Killed His Wife, Belle
EImore-Doctors Probably Save
His Life.

New York.-Joseph C. Robin, indict-
ed head of the Northern bank of New
York, when about to be arraigned in
court Friday on the charge of larceny
collapsed from the effects of self-ad-
ministered dose of hyoscyamine, the
subtle and deadly alkaloid with which
DR.. Hawley Harvey Crippen killed his
wife, Belle Elmore
It was declared to be the third at
tempt the young bank wrecker has
made to destroy himself since the au-
thorities have been endeavoring to
place him behind the bars, but like
his previous efforts, was unsuccessful.
This was due to the fact that he took
but one-tenth of a grain of hyoscya-
mine, but it was the entire contents
Of box containing the drug found in
his sisters home. Robin is now In the
prison ward at Bellevue hospital.
The attempted suicide took place in
the detective bureau in the criminal
courts building where Robin was be-
ing asked for his pedigree as a pre-
liminary to arraignment, when in an
swer to his interrogators, turned to
his sister, Mrs. Louise Robinovich, and
said:
"Good-by, sister; I'm going-I've
taken poison"
Mrs. Robinovich stared into her
brothers face for moment and with
q groan of anguish that resounded
through the corridors, swooned. Rob-
in next turned to DR.. Austin Flint, the
alienist who had accompanied the
prisonef*and the lawyers into the de-
tective bureau and repeated the start
ling statement:
Doctor" he said, II am dying
man. I have taken poison tablets. l
swallowed IL hyoscyamine tablets of
1920 grain each three-quarters of an
hour ago. j knew the drug was in a
drawer where my sister kept medi-
cines and took 1t just before leaving
the house. / can feel myself going
now"
Physicians were hurriedly sum-
moned and Robin was carried into
the private room Of District Attorney
Whitman, where he was stretched on
the floor and the process begun by
which his life was saved temporarily,
at least.
Confusion reigned supre. e through
out the building by this tine. While
the surgeon was working over Robin
former District Attorney Jerome,
counsel in the case, followed by DR..
Austin Flint and Assistant District
Attorney Mott appeared before Judge
Cain and explained the situation to
the judge, who granted a postpone
ment of the hearing until Robins con-
dition shall warrant his arraignment.

PACKERS FIGHT FOR TIME
Counsel Opposes Dismissal of Civil
Action Which Would Hasten the
Criminal Trial.

Chicago.-Indicted members of the
so-called beef trust" will resort to
every technical means within their
knowledge and experience to stay the
criminal proceedings begun against
them by the government. This was
made clear Wednesday before Judge
Kohlsaat in the United States circuit
court.
Attorney George T. Buckingham,
one of the attorneys for the packers,
obtained delay to file objections to
the dismissal of the suit in equity to
enjoin the National Packing company
from violating the antitrust act.
The government suit was dismissed
on orders of Attorney General Wick.
ersham This was done with the pur.
pose of preventing the packers from
escaping trial upon the criminal in.

BIoodhounds Trailing Alleged Burglar
Escape From Keeper and XIII
Their Quarry.

Mount Vernon, Ill.-One of the most
peculiar killings ever heard of in this
section took place when bloodhounds
escaped from their keeper near Car.
rier's Mills and caught man whom
they were trailing and literally tore
him to pieces.
A residence in Carriers Mills had
been burglarized during the absence
of the family and on their return they
ordered the bloodhounds brought to
the scene. The trail was taken up i'm
mediately and the hounds In their
eagerness to land their quarry broke
loose from their keeper and chased
the man they were pursuing into an
old barn. There he attempted to es.
cape their attack but was unable to do
so. He was bounced upon by the half
mad hounds and SO terribly mangled
that recognition of his remains was
impossible.

The announcement that the two
ends of waterway by which it will be
possible for vessels to avoid passing
outside of Cape Hatteras have been
Joined, so that completion of the route
is a matter of but short time, is of
special interest. Cape Hatteras is one
of the most dangerous points along
the American coast, particularly at
certain seasons, and anything which
can lessen its terrors for mariners
or passengers will be most welcome
change. incidentally the canal in
question will form enc of the links in
the Atlantic deeper-waterway sys-
tenn, which is destined to play a most
important part in the development of
the country's commerce and as an
adjunct to the national defense.

UNCLE SAM NOW is A BANKER
POSTAL SAVINGS INSTITUTIONS
OPENED IN EACH STATE.

interest.

Washington, Jan. 3.-Uncle Sam be-
came full-fedged banker today
when an experimental postal savings
bank was opened in every state and
territory in the Union, in accordance
with the postal savings bank bill
passed at the second session of the
Sixty-first congress. The postoffices
designated to accept deposits are all
of the second class, and are located
in communities where the laboring
element of the population is large.
For the past month Postmaster Gen
eral Hitchcock has had the various
postmasters who will handle deposits
in Washington instructing them in re-
gard to the details of the new system.
Following is list Of the cities
where postal banks were opened:
Globe, Ariz.; Oroville, Gals; Lead
vile, COL; Occur d'Alene, Idaho; An
aconda, Mont; Carson City, New;
Ration, N. M; klamath Falls, Ore;
Provo. Utah; Olympia, Wash; Lara
Ark; Ansonia, Conn; Dover, Del;
Key West, Fla; Brunswick, Ca:
Pekin, ILL.,; Princeton, Ind; DEBORAH,
Ia; Pittsburg, Kan; Middlesboro,
KY; New Iberia, La; Rumford, Me-;
Frostburg, Md; Norwood, Mass;
Houghton, Mich; Bemidji, Mimi;

tabula, o.; Guymon, OKLA; Dubois,
Pa; Bristol, r. l.; Newberry, S c.;
Deadwood, S. D.; Johnson City,
Tenn; Montpelier, VT; Clifton Forge,
Va; Grafton, w. Va, and Manitowoc,
Wis.
The postal banks will be conducted
on strictly banking lines with the
exception that there will be no pass
books, certificates of deposits being
issued in duplicate. Depositors will
be paid two per cent interest yearly.
The postal funds, placed in designated
banks by the board OF trustees, will
yield the government 2A per cent. 1t
is believed that this quarter of one
per cent. difference will be sufficient
to meet all necessary expenses of
conducting the postal savings deposit
tories.
A careful study of the law creating
postal savings banks makes 1t clear
that the government will be bene-
fitted largely. and that within a year
or two after the system has been in
operation Uncle Sam may have all the
money necessary to meet deficiencies,
and to make effective public improve
ments without having to appeal to
Wall street for financial aid

Remove not the ancient landmark"
is a Scriptural injunction to whose
value the United States is only begin
ming to subscribe in earnest, says the
Omaha Bee. Spasmodic efforts at
preservation have been made here and
there, the most notable being in the
case of the Yellowstone, but the in.
sensate greed of the utilitarian world
has wrought heavy damage in many
spots of beauty and wonder ere the
people awoke to a realization of the
wantoness. The Palisades of the Hud-
son have been saved after years Of
desultory fighting, during which COM
mercialism was steadily at work scar
ring the noble features of the Hudson.
Similar destruction of the famous Del
aware Water Gap has been averted
with the utmost difficulty. Only pri-
waite enthusiasm and ability to pay
saved and perpetuated the Garden of
the Gods, which a wealthy patron has
just presented as Christmas gift to
Colorado Springs.

cocKNEY AS A DIALECT.

The efforts of the London county
council to drive out the Cockney
speech from the schools of the English
metropolis hardly needed the opposi
ton given In book recently issued in
defense of the dialect. This book, which
Ia, curiously enough, the work of man
named Mackenzie MacBride, contends
that Cockney is no modern dialect, but
that 1t possesses an ancient and hon.
orable lineage running back nearly
1000 years. When one born within
sound OF Bow Bells says "thet" for
that" "benk" for bank" and "by'
lyffe" for "bailin." he is using no mod.
ern corruption of the English Ian.
guage, but the pronunciation Of those
words which has obtained not only In
London, but in Kent and Surrey for
hundreds of years. Moreover, in an.
Gent times, the words were spelled aa
the Cockney now sounds them. SO.
too, are "abaht" and "ahtside" justi.
fed for about" and outside" accord.
ing to Mr.. MacBride. He says that
many Londoners have been laughed out
OF these ancient pronunciations, and
he advises them not to change their
speech, because of outside prejudices
against 1t, says the Chicago Tribune.
Certainly Cockney would seem to be
dialect or it would not have survived
for so many centuries in the midst OF
speech which calls itself more cul.
tured. 1t is curious fact that in
the Bahama islands, which were set.
tied more than 200 years ago by Lon.
doners, the Cockney dialect is as
strong as in Cheapside.

On the Doc.

A small West Philadelphia boy may
be an author some day. He has just
finished his first essay. 1t Is on dog.
"A dog is animule with four legs,
a tale and pants but he never changes
them. He wags his tale when he is
glad and sits on it when he is sorry. A
dog is a useful animule because he bites
burglars but he is more trouble than
he is worth when he tracks mud on
the carpet. A bull dog is the king of
heasts."
