CHILD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUM0K

~ think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema l have
ever heard of. Ny mother had child
who had a rash on it's head when 1t
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash. He gave US medicine, but 1t did
no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, a box of Cuticura Ointment,
and bar Of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau.
tiful head Of hair. think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
It makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund, Plain City, Utah, Sept. 10, 1910.
Although Cuticura Soap and Clint
ment are sold everywhere, sample
of each, with 92-page book, will be
mailed free on application to "CNd-
cura," Dept. i. Boston.

INDICT CASH REGISTER MEN
Is Charged by Federal
Grand Jury.

Cincinnati-Thirty officials and en-
ployes of the National Cash Register
company Of Dayton, O., were indicted
on charges of criminal violation Of the
Sherman antitrust law by a special
federal grand jury here.
There are three counts in the indict'
ments against the officials and en-
ployes of the company. The first
count charges that nearly all competi
tors concerned have been bought out
or driven out of business. 1t is
charged that restraint has been in
operation for the last twenty years
although the specific charge is con
fined to the last three years. 1t is
said TO have been affected by bribing
employees Of competitors and trans
portation. telegraph and telephone
companies, and injuring the credit OF
competitors in libeling their ma
chimes. The second and third counts
charge the defendants with monopo
lizing the cash register business by
the same means.

positively that Mr.. Taft will reply to

HER WELL-MERITED REPRooF
Rebuke of Boston Teacher Must A.
most Have Broken the Heart OF
Little Sammy Parker.

A well-known educator tells OF a
school of advanced ideas in Boston,
wherein no pupil is ever punished IN
any way, the individuality OF every
child being held too sacred for repres-
sion.
One day, it appears, soon after her
entrance into this school, one httie
girl came home. with face wet with
tears and her mouth covered with
blood
The mother was greatly alarmed
and, taking the child into her arms,
asked what hSd happened.
The story of what had happened
was sobbed Jut to the sympathetic
mother. One Sammy Parker, 1t
seemed, had struck the little girl and
knocked out couple of teeth.
When the unfortunate youngster had
been restored to equanimity her, ia
ther, who had in the meantime put In
an appearance, naturally enough want
to know how the teacher had dealt
with Sammy.
"She didn't do anything"
"Well, what did she say?"
"She called Sammy to her desk and
said: Samuel, don't you know that
was very antisocial? ?''-Harper's Mag
azine. ''"-' - .

MANY LAWS
DECISION OF ILLINOIS SUPREME
COURT KNOCKS OUT STATE
MEASURES.
WILL CALL EXTRA SESSION
Bill Appropriating $4,000 for Univer-
sIty of illinois Is Declared Illegal
Because 1t Was Not Printed Be-
fore Final Passage.

Springfield, Ill.-The state supreme
court has handed down a decision
which affects the validity of many of
the most important laws and apprOpri-
alton bills passed by the legislature
during the last forty years.
The court held an appropriation OF
$50 1000 for the medical department OF
the University of Illinois to be uncon-
stitutional on the ground that the bill
in its final form was not printed be-
fore its passage by the legislature.
The 100000 item was inserted in the
conference committee report and
rushed through the Legislature in the
closing hours of the 1911 session.
At each session for many years bills
have been passed without fulfilling
the constitutional requirement that a
bill and all its amendments must be
printed before final passage.
AS a result an unprecedented situa-
tion exists.
Governor Deneen probably will con-
Vene the Legislature in special session
:
before other measures, whose validity
is in doubt, are attacked in the courts.
Many important bills are affected
by the decision Of the court, including
the following: Omnibus appropria-
tion bill, making appropriation for the
expenses of the state government for
the ensuing two years; omnibus bills
making appropriation for the seven
teen state charitable institutions; SEN
atorial apportionment under which
general assembly members have been
elected for last ten years; Cook coun-
ty civil service bill; bill providing for
payment into the state treasury OF all
fees collected by state officers; mu-
nicipal court civil service bill; Chit
cago parks civil service bill; Chicago
police pension fund bill; state game
commission bill; appropriation for
sites for state armories and armory
buildings; appropriation for new
buildings at state fair grounds.

Leads To Investigation.

Chicago.-Six unopened bottles OF
milk and dead cat led the police OF
Waukegan to the discovery Of poi,
soning mystery. Because of them they
broke open the doors of a residence
in the North Shore suburb and found
the bodies of John Jenstrom, well.
to-do contractor, and his wife Alma.
Soth had been dead several days. An
inspection of the premises resulted N
the finding of a package, believed %
have contained arsenic, and the rem.
nant of a meal, which is thought to
nave been the last one the couple ate
before their death.
