CHlLD'S FACE ALL RED SPOTS

go N. 5th St. Terre Haute, Ind
My little nephew, a boy of four
years, had a breaking out on his face.
1t was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another world come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but 1t did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say II hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So / begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning | made strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After had his
face washed, put the CutIcura ONT
ment on and in short time his little
face was all red and dry. kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and it did not leave e scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week
and a half" (Signed) Mrs. Arthur

TRACED TO RACING STABLES
Slang Phrase, Getting His Goat" Sc
Popular Now, Had Origin in
Actual Occurrence.

Unlike many other vivid or pietur.
esque slang expressions, which en-.
rich and enliven the English language,
but the source of which is either OBJ
scure or totally unknown, the origin
of the phrase, ito get his goat" can
fortunately be traced. Until 1t came
into popular use, about half dozen
years ago. the phrase was confined to
racing stables and to running horses
and was part Of the language of the
racetrack.
1t was formerly the rather wide
spread custom among owners OF rae.
ing stock to keep goat in the same
stall with a horse, either from the
superstitious belief in mascots or
from the more scientific belief that
the goat impaired some OF his
strength or magnetism to the horse.
Ardent friendships have been known
to spring up between goats and
horses living thus in close intimacy
and sleeping together.
When a horse that had the compan.
ionship of a goat CHANGED to win the
Jockeys would attribute his success
to the influence Of the goat, and It
happened more than once that
stable boy would get the goat" Of the
winning horse by entering the stable
surreptitiously at night and taking the
animal to the stall Of his own favorite.
If the horse that was deprived of his
goat friend should lose the next day
and the other horse should win, that
would, Of course. strengthen the belief
in the efficacy Of the goat.
The practice Of relying on goats to
help a horse win a race is said to be
dying ont, but it has left behind one
of the most expressive phrases, which
seems destined ultimately to become
as respectable as any English idiom.

POPULAR SYMBOL OF VALUE
Young Man Evidently Was Lacking In
His Appreciation OF the coun-

There is plenty of food for cynical
thoughts In the national capital. as is
shown by the following incident which
happened on Washington street car:
A worldly young man, prone to crit.

the car, One advertised q new kind
OF collar for men. The dome OF the
capitol was represented encircled by
one Of the collars. and on the SEN
ate and house wings of the build

Sisceton.-As a result of a quarrel
over a small sum of money at Ortley,
in this county, Albert Mackay of Chi
cage is dead, and William Rudolph of
North McGregor, Ia, is i~ncarcarated in
the county Jail in this city charged
with his murder. Rudolph admits
having struck the dead man on the
head with a heavy club, which is now
in the possession of the sheriff and
coroner Both men were at the time
of the quarrel employed on the double
track laying on the Milwaukee near
the town of Ortley in this county, and
were working for the west construc-
ton camp of Morris, Shepherd &
Dougherty. The two men had been
pals for some time and had also work,
ed in threshing crews near Groton. S.
D., and lear Ortley. When found the
dead mans head was beaten to a
pulp on the right side. Rudolph was
standing over the PROSTATE body of
Mackay with the club in his hands
when discovered, and made no at
tempt to escape, 1t is thought that
both had been drinking heavily pre-
vious to the quarrel.
