CHILD'S FACE ALL RED SPOTS

$50 n. 5th St, Terre Haute, Ind
My little nephew, a boy Of four
years, had a breaking out on his face.
It was little red spots at first, then
he would rub and scratch and water
bIisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would come
until his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but it did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say it hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
blisters. So I begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them
The next morning I made a 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 l had his
face washed, I put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on and in a short time his little
face was all red and dry I kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and it did not leave a scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week
and half" fSigned) Mrs. Arthur

charge in force, and the screens of
the swamp made an attack from them
on the tanks and rear hard to resist.
Still, it was impossible to retreat, and
bold front was the only resource. I
Ieveled my rifle at the chief who
headed the natives. He opened his
arms, bearing his shield on the left
and lifting his spear at full stretch
in his right hand, so that his bTawny,
glistening body was fully exposed.
His action meant: 'T am a friend
l lowered my rife, and our troop
was soon in friendly touch with the
natives. The chief asked what we
were seeking in the swamps and we
told him that we were looking for the
missing Boer trekkers. He told me
that he had heard Of their settlement
in the country to the northwest be
yOnd the swamps and would put US on
the way to them. After resting for d
few hours, the chief and his follow
ers led us across the marshes by
paths which we travelled for little
more than a week until we came out
into an open country where the
kOpjes were sticking up stiff1y like the
horns Of a young kOOdoO
We had hardly reached firm land
when our soldiers fell sick. The only
one OF the company of mistaken spirit
was the priest of the troop, a little
gray-headed man who was constantly
praying, with undimmed faith in Gods
help, while the men groaned and raved
IN the deIirium of fever. We made
hammOcks OF grass and bamboo poles
and natives of the country agreed to
carry our sick men for few Of our
cartridges.
From the day that we left the
swamps a string OF graves stretched
behind US. One after another of the
little troopers fell out of the ranks.
At length we passed the ridge
which was pointed out to us as the
last to be crossed before reaching the
well-wateTed country called MWembi
where the missing party was most
likely to be found
With every passing day our troop
dwindled away. Colonel Andreas had
been Frustrated by fever in the course
of our march and was carried in
hammock to our hating place. where
ne lay for days too sick to take any
charge of the camp.
As usual left my tent about mid
night TO relieve the watch which the
priest was keeping. He was praying
before the Pickering campfire and I
stood beside him for moment silent
ly. Suddenly a heart-shaking sound
like the roar of lions. but with strange
muffled tones. seemed to spring out
of the earth beneath US. It rose and
fell in swells. now loud and hoarse,

Matter of Justice.

Where shall justice begin, with
those who have power or with those
who suffer wrong? If exact and ideal
justice were done, the weak would
make an effort to give to the strong
all that is their due, and the strong
would try to put their affairs in order
so that no just cause of complaint
should exist anywhere. The unhappy
element in the relations of the strong
and the weak is that both are think
ing too much about exacting justice
and not enough about doing that
which is just and right. PAY what
thou owest" is the cry most often
heard. Give me that which is my
due, then l will pay you what l owe.

chiId,s Eear of the Dark.

If mothers notice that the brains of
their little ones conjure up uncanny
sights and thoughts from the shadows
of a room more or less dark, let the
light burn brightly. To force a child
to become accustomed to the darkness
is a grave error. if its nervous system
is SO organized that this forcing is
productive Of a fright.
The nervous system of a child is a
very susceptible organization and the
deleterious Impressions made upon it
will often make their influence felt
child asks for a light under such cir,
Cumstances do not refuse it.

Really Had Best Of II.

John Burroughs is we'll known as
one Of the foremost of nature writer's
in this country. Some time ago he
visited his brother. Eden Burroughs,
who lives in the Catskills, at a place
called Hobart. The two brothers went
fox hunting together. The honor OF
the hunt came to Eden, who shot the
only fox. 1t so happened that fox
skins were worth five dollars at that
time, and the successful Nimrod took
much pride in telling how he got the
better of the sage of Slabsides. Later,
in boasting to a few friends about it
in the presence of his brother, John,
he was interrupted by, You have
Dragged about that fox hunt long
enough. You shot the fox, sold the
skin and got five dollars. l wrote a
little account of the hunt, and got
SIS from the magazine which publish
ed it. So there you are,"

weakness I lost consciousness, and
when I woke it was daybreak

it came, and with it the frightfuI roars
that were maddening me-.
Except for this sound there was a
silence as of death on the camp. ]
stepped out into the moonlight and
stood in the shadow of a mimosa. A
moving object caught my eye A
troop of natives in single file crcft
into camp with the sinuous stealth of
"a python in the grass. The leader
opened the flap Of a tent and entered
with three followers. A moment later
the four carried out a helpless sick
man, and the. band slid away noise
lessly with its captive.
l followed at a little distance, rag
ing at heart, but knowing that an
alarm would excite a raid that would
kill US all hOpelessIy. As we ad-
Vanced into the forest, the roars grew
ttercer and clearer. Soon the natives
halted. Torches we're lighted and the
troop danced around their victim as
before. Then, taking up the body,
they carried it to a heap of bouIders
from whence came the mighty roar,
and hurled it into the midst of the
rocks.
The roaring died away and the wild
laughter of the blacks rang out
shrilly. In a moment the band has
tened away toward our camp, leaving
their smOldering torches among the
rocks. Mystifed, I crept to the place
where I had seen the body thrown.
A peculiar low growI greeted me as I
reached the rocks. I seized one of
the torches and shook it into life,
drawing my revolver for instant use.
A dark blot amid the bouIders dis
closed an opening to my straining
eyes. Holding the torch at arms
length, I fell on my knees and peered
into the hole Down among the Jagged
rocks Of a vast den, white with the
bones of animals, I saw the green
phosphorescent eyes of a pack Of
lions
1t was a maddening sight, and I
could hardly suppress a scream of
horror as I ran back into the dark
woods and CROPPED through the under
brush toward the camp. I felt that We
were pOwerless to escape these fends
and their idols, the man-eaters OF
M'Wembi
That night, far down to the south
west, I saw half a dozen fires like the
sparks of a glowworm in the dark.
Had some heavenly hand held out
hope it could not have given me more
cheer, for I knew that the fires were
kindIed by white men, as the natives
in the district made none after sun
set. My mind was made up. Using
the lights as guiding stars I set out
to reach the distant camp. All night

went out little way from camp TO
a clear space where I could get our
bearings. AS I was finding my stars
I saw & party Of natives coming away
from our tents, bearing a soldier in
a hammock. I supposed that they
were taking the body away to bury
it. The experience was too common
for NE to question what they were
doing. Once more. after a little time,
the mysterious ro8rs arose. and then
they stopped and the night was still.
The next night was aroused again
by the strange roars. I took my
arms and, half unknowing what
was doing, wandered of from the
camp
In clump of bush not far away
heard a noise which grew more dis
tinct as I approached. It was the
peculiar weird chant of the natives.
l crept through the bush and reached
an open space where the natives were
clustered. There, swung in a ham
mock, tied hand and foot, was one
of our sick soldiers who I could see
was still living, and around him
danced half a hundred negroes. When
the dance was over the blacks took
the hammock and went off into the
forest. I tried to follow, but my legs
trembIed and I fell to the ground.
Again the mysterious roars re
sounded through the darkness. In my

in their packs but stinted rations for

We expected that the natives with Us

but it seemed that they were unwilling
to take the risks Of a hostile country,
for the hunters almost always return

cut our rations to eight ounces a day,
and, at length, to a few morseIs of
food, for We had misjudged the dis
