New York, Nov. 6-1ndications con.
tanned in early and incomplete returns
are that the Democrats will make
gains in the United States senate, but
whether these gains will be suflicient
to change the political complexion Of
the senate Is undetermined.
1t appears likely that Democrat
will succeed q Republican, and while
Progressive leaders n Colorado would
not concede It, there appeared from
the Wilson gains, indicated in early
returns, a possibility that two Demo-
cratic senators will be returned from
the state.

sWHY SHOULD | USE
CUTICURk sOAP?"

"There is nothing the matter with
my skin, and | thought Cuticura Soap
was only for skin troubles" True, it
Is for skin troubles, but it's great mis-
sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than a generation its delicate
emollient and prophylactic properties
have rendered 1t the standard for his
purpose, while it's extreme purity and
refreshing fragrance give to it all the
advantages Of the best of toilet soaps.
1t is also invaluable in keeping the
hands soft and white, the hair live
and glossy, and the scalp free from
dandruff and irritation.
While its first cost is a few cents
more than that of ordinary toilet
soaps, it is prepared with such care
and of such materials, that it wears
to a wafer. often outlasting several
cakes Of other soap, and making its
use, in practice, most economical.
Cuticura Soap is sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, but the truth of
these claims may be demonstrated
/ without cost by sending to "CUticura,"

Dairy Cattle.

From the Christian Herald Almanac.
1t Is said. on authority, that one-half
the dairy COWS in the United States do
not pay their way and their owners
would be better off II they sold them
and bought their milk and butter.
Debit the average COW with the interest
on her selling price and deduct one
tenth each year from this price, as her
age chance is seven years; add to this
the food consumed. including that from
the farm, the cost of care and milking,
and then credit her with her milk and
the manure, and strike a balance.
But there are COW and COWS, and the
best are none too good If they are kept
for profit. The milk output is increas-
ing as farmers are improving their
breeds. The last census estimates the
value of the increased dairy products
at $3.50, 600, 900 per annum. This Is u
not only to better stock. but TO better
housing and better care.
The Holstein breed has a Goodyear
record as the best milk producer. and
for centuries the Ayrshire has held the
medal for producing most milk at least
cost; while the Jerseys n Guernseys
from the islands in the English chan
ne! have been famous as producers OF
butter.
The best dairy cattle are never the
best for beef.
