RASH ON FACE FOR 2 YEARS

Sioux Falls, s. 'D.-"My trouble Of

ly at night. on account Of its itching
and burning. would scratch It and
Of course that irritated it. very much.
This rash was on my face for about
two years, sometimes breaking out
lots worse and forming larger sores.
It kept me from sleeping day or night
for couple of months. My face look
ed disgraceful and I was almost
ashamed to be seen by my friends.
"A friend asked me to try Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I would
bathe my face with hot water and
lot Of Cuticura Soap, then would put
on the Cuticura Ointment. In less
than two days. time, the soreness and
inflammation had almost entirely dis

could not see any Of the rash. Now
my face is without a spot of any kind.

A GRAFT SCANDAL
FARGO IS DISTURBED az THE
RUMcRs THAT HAVE BE-
COME CURRENT.
IT AFFECTS OFFICIALS.
Chief Of Police keefe Under investi.
cation on Charge Of Protect
ing Gamblers Of the
City.

Farg0.-Is Chief of Police Keefe
guilty of grating for the protection
of gamblers. or is he. being persecut-
ed? There seems to be a division of
sentiment in Fargo at this time, as
we'll as much illfeeling over the mat
ter.
For several weeks rumors of graft
have been current. One aldermanic
committee exonerated the chief. The
full city council then arranged a hear
ing. The chief stated he wanted the
widest publicity, but later asked the
district court for a writ to prevent the
council from acting.
Two sets of charges were made
against the chief, the first being in the
form of affidavits from the proprietors
of three gambling places. They al
legged they had contributed to fund
for the chief in order to secure pro-
lection. A council committee was
named to investigate. 1t had no >au-
thority to administer the oath to the
witnesses but took a large amount of
testimony. The committees findings
were that gambling undoubtedly exist
ed but there was nothing to connect
the chief with any graft in connection
with it.
1t was learned the council had no
authority to deputize this work to
committee, but that the entire body
must consider the charges and a vote
of two-thirds Of the members would be
necessary to remove the official. The
council has full authority to subpoena
witnesses and compel them to testify
under oath. At least that power is
granted under the city ordinances;
but there appears to be soJne d~',bt
as to whether the council really has it.
Former Alderman Bolene, of the
second ward, who is said to have been
the Intermediary between the gam
blers and the chief, resigned and then
filed formal charges against the chief.
The latter announced he courted the
fullest investigation, but afterwards
sought writ to prevent action by
the council.
Mayor Sweet is placed in almost as
embarrassing position as the chief.
He naturally wants to act for the best
interests of the city and at the same
time both his general administration
and the integrity of his appointees are
under investigation.

NEVER TIRES

eating it with a little cream or milk.
A change for the better began at once.
To-day am we'll and am gaining
weight and strength all the time. I've
gained 10 lbs. in the last five weeks

The favour Of Grape.Nuts is peculiar
to itself. It is neutral, not too sweet
and has an agreeable, healthful quality
that never grows tiresome.
One Of the sources Of rheumatism is
from overlooking the system with
acid material. the result Of imperfect
digestion and assimilation.
As soon as improper food Is aban.
