least a year for eczema on my foot /

years ago a small spot showed upon
my left ankle. was worried and sent
for a DOCTOR He said 1t was eczema.
He drew a small bone from the ankle
about the size Of match and about
an inch long. The small hole grew
to about the size of an apple, and the
eczema spread to the knee. The doc
tors never could heal the hole in the
ankle. The whole foot ran water all
the time.
my husband and my sons were up
night and day wheeling me from one
room to another In the hope of giving
me some relief. I would sit for hours

WOMEN AND HEALTH.

Women are beginning to realize
more fully that good health is not to
be found in the use of cosmetics and
face powders. The appearance Of
health may follow facial treatment,
but health itself lies much deeper than
the surface.
Most important to the health of ey-
cry woman is regularity Of the bowels
and digestive organs. The weary
eyes. bad breath. frequent headaches,
pimples and general air Of lassitude.
is in most every case due to consti-
patton or indigestion. or both. There
are various remedies prescribed for
this condition, but the easiest, most
pleasant and certainly effective, Is
a combination of simple laxative
herbs with pepsin known to druggists
as DR.. Caldwells, Syrup Pepsin. This
simple remedy is far preferable to
harsh salts and cathartics and violent
purgative waters that disturb the
whole system without affording more
than temporary relief.
DR.. Caldwell's Srup Pepsin is q
tonic laxative, mild In its action.
pleasant to the taste and positive In
its effect. strengthening the muscles
Of stomach and bowels so that after
a short time these organs regain the
power to perform their natural func-
tons without assistance.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin Is sold

Soil for Apples.

A somewhat gravelly soil, or even
one verging somewhat on stony, has
been found satisfactory for apple
growing. provided there Is an abun-
dance Of plant food present. The
gravel and the small stones assist in
the drainage and this probably ex-
plains in part the superiority of such
soils. As rule. gravelly loan. fairly
rich in plant food. is the ideal apple

their own views that they cannot

phase of the question Mr. Plumley

law matter, he had the advantage of
counsel with Messrs. Smith and Car

RIGHT AND WRONG.
/ Conflict Of Authority Easily Settled
by Speaker Reed.

BY many observers Reed is now con-
sidered to have been the greatest man
in congress at his time. Such is the
opinion of James l.. Slayden of Texas,
who relates the following:
1T was when Reed was speaker and
Bailey was minority leader said the
Texas congressman. After one of the
parliamentary battles and on one of
the few occasions that 1t happened,
Reed had been unquestiOnably wrong
in his ruling. and Bailey had him in a
tight place. Reed, in one Of those clev-
err little speeches from the chair for
which he was famous, told the house
that the speaker was but the servant
Of the house and not its master (Which
was not true in any particular when
Reed was speaker. for he ruled the
house as no other man has before or
since). and wound up by saying that
everything was within the power of
the house; that if his ruling was wrong
it was in the power Of the house to re-
verse him by an appeal. One Of his
lieutenants, taking the cue, made the
appeal The Republican majority
promptly sustained the speaker as
