Abbotsford, Wis.-"My son had &C.
Eema on his hands for about one year.
The eczema started with a RI h. His
hands were sore so he could close
them, and when ne wet his hands they
hurt him SO he could hardly wash. His
hands itched and burned just terrible
and if he would scratch them. they
would break out into sores. He could
not get any rest or sleep, and his
hands looked quite bad.

kept getting worse all the time. got

MEN MAKE MARKETS
PROSPERITY CAN BE ADVERSELY
AFFECTED BY DEMOCRATIC
FREE TRADE LAWS.
PLAIN TRUTH FOR FARMERS
Statement That Good Times viii Con-
tinue, No Matter Who Is Elected, Is
Shown to Be False, Because Leeis-
lation Affects Prices Of Farm Prod
ucts.

In a recent issue of Successful Farm
ing, under the heading "A Popularity
Contest" there appeared among 9TH
er things this paragraph:
- This is the year Of our Lord 1912,
when the farmers push back the ex-
cited and noisy politicians and say
Go chase yourself You can't make
prosperity any more than you can
make rain or sunshine The goods
you are talking about are adulterated
with ninety-nine per cent selfishness
and political rot. We've got the gem
uine over in our tent Goodbye
The paragraph was written in good
faith, doubtless By one who honestly
believes the prosperity of this country
will not be in any way affected, no
matter how the election goes in No
vember.
That was precisely the position
taken by the Democratic orators and
newspapers in 1892 That was a year
of most bountiful crops. it win be re
membered, and good prices. Facto-
ries were running fun force. capital
was eagerly seeking investment, labor
was fully employed In word, il was
the most prosperous year the country
had known UP to that time. The Re
publicans tried to make tho people be-
lieve that they ought not to endanger
that prosperity by changing political
management. But they we're jeered
then as the above paragraph in Sue
cessful Farming ieers them now
Prosperity is a gift Of God and not
of politicians" the Republicans were
told, and they were aceGsed of a sort
of blasphemy for attem Dting to argue
that a Democratic victory might bring
disaster, AS a matter Of fact nobody
expected a Democratic victory, so
business went booming right along un-
til election day.
But when II became known that
Cleveland had been elected and would
have a Democratic congress with him
pledged to reduce the tariff, there
came about an Immediate change over
the whole face Of the business world.
Manufacturers did not dare fill their
warehouses Iull OF GOODS Wnlcn might
have to compete with similar articles
of foreign make. Jobbers and whole
salers restricted their orders to i'm
mediate needs. while all over the
country retailers bought from day to
day because they did not want their
shelves filled with high-priced goods
when the low-priced flood came in
And so IL happened that although the
new tariff bill was not passed for
more than a year after Cleveland's
election, the panic began at once. Not
what the Democratic party actually
did but what it was threatening to do
brought about the condition Of uncer-
tainty in the Industrial world which
simply paralyzed The business OF the

paY School for Dead.

In the last bulletin Of the state de-
partment OF education the work OF the
Green Bay school for the deaf and
blind is described. The article is pre-
pared by Miss Sella Flatley. principal
of the school and the bulletin com
piled by A. j. Whine, inspector Of the
schools. There are twenty-five chill
dren in the class now and there are
four teachers.
The oral day school for deaf chill
dren was established in Green Bay by
Miss Margaret Sullivan in September.
1897. with an enrolment of eight pu-
pills" says the bulletin. THE board
of education thought it we'll to put
this school under the special charge
of one member of the board who
would confer with the teachers on all
points of interest and advancement
of the school Mr.. Arthur Ducha-
teau was appointed to this position,
and from then to the present time.
with the exception Of about two years,
during which Mr.. Duchateau was not
member of the board, he eonscien-
tiously filled this position.
In 1902 the school was located in
the East side high school building,
and when a larger room was needed
to accommodate the pupils. large
room was fitted up for them in an adj
dition which was being built to the
Whitney school. In a few years this
room was not large enough and an
other room was fitted up in the same
building. At present the twenty-five
children are taught by four teachers
in two large rooms, this being the
best that the board of education can
do for the school at present
The deaf children have the advan-
tage of taking work under any special
city teacher when Miss Flatley. the
principal, feels that it is an advan-
tage to the child. The physical eul-
ture director in the city schools
teaches the deaf children as he does
any hearing class and with equal sue
cess. Three of the larger boys took
= lnual training and mechanical draw
ing with the hearing children, but en-
tered the class one class lower, so
that the sixth grade deaf boys worked
side by side with the seventh grade
hearing boys. They proved them
selves capable Of doing the work fully
as we'll One deaf boy averaged sec
ond highest in the class. receiving an
average of 81 for his years work.
The other two boys averaged we'll
with the hearing children. Both were
above 80. The boys will be given the
advantage Of the trade school next
year The girls are taught sewing,
and show great interest and ability
in their work They win also be
able to take domestic science next
year The school is fully equipped
with everything the principal feels is
practical and help to the education
of the child.
The attitude of the entire board
of education is shown in providing
that in 1913 the school for the deaf
shall be located in new building
where it viii have five modern rooms,
four classrooms and an assembly hall,
in which nothing will be spared to
make the children happy and comfor-
table and every effort made TO give
them the best and most practical ed.
ucation possible"

AchseoIoolsts Hold OF.

The Wisconsin Archaeological So
clety this year will postpone the open
ing of its season meetings until No
vembeU Is. 1t is the rule of the So
ciety to begin its winter sessions in
October, but this year the inability of
Secretary Charles e. Brown, who is
out of the state or historical society
business, to be present, has caused
the directors to put off the opening
meeting one month.
This has been an unusually active
year with the society. more arch
geological surveying have been done
than ever before. The reports of sew
eral of the field parties are not yet
complete and win not be for several
weeks. AS it is desired to present
these reports at the opening meeting
many of them are reports of trips
participated in by Mr. Brown and he
has the reports in charge-this delay
furnishes another reason for the post
ponement.

ma. On the other hand, the revised
Pe-ru-na is a better remedy for some
conditions than Ka-tar-no. They are
both intended as catarrh remedies.
They have both done a great work In
relieving catarrh, chronic and acute
Many hundreds of cases of chronic
catarrh have recovered while taking
Ka-tar-no and the same is true OF the
revised Pe-ru-na during the last six
years since its revision.
There is a difference, however, in
the two remedies. Whenever catarrh
is associated with constipation then
the revised Pe-ru-na Is the best. In
deed, this Is exactly why the revision
was made, to meet such cases. But
where no laxative is needed, where the
bowels are regular or inclined to be-
loose, then the old Pe-rl-na (Ka-tar-

AssaIls School Methods.

That the educational methods of
the past which are used largely
throughout the country at the present
day are not sufficient and that other
methods must be adopted was the
point advanced by all the speakers at
the annual session of the Northwest
ern Teachers association in Eau
Claire.
L. D. Harvey of Menomonee, spoke
of the development of Industrial edit
cation. Warren Z. Hicks Of the state
department, whose address dealt with
the Wisconsin law regarding continual
ton schools, their purpose and work
ings, also decried the methods of the
past and their arguments were strong
in advocacy of Industrial and practical
education. They stated the needs of
education are far OF more practical
sort than that gained by a study of
books. The education of the child to
use the hand as well as the mind is

Open Air Schools Grow h Favor.

With the opening of the fall school
term, over 200 open air schools and
fresh air classes for tuberculous and
anaemic children. and also for all chill
dren in certain rooms and grades, will
be in operation in various parts Of the
United States. according to the Ma
ticual Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis. All OF
these schools have been established
since January, 1907. when the first in
stitution of this character was opened
in Providence, r. l. On January 1,
1910 there we're only 13 open air
schools in this country and year
later the number had increased only
10 20. Thus. the real growth in this
movement has been within the last
two years. Massachusetts now leads
the states with % fresh air schools
and classes for tuberculous, anaemic
and other school children, Boston
alone having over 80 New York
comes next with 20, and Ohio is third
with 21 Open air schools have now
been established in nearly so cities
and 10 different states.
