DECIDE CONTESTS
IN TAFT's FAVOR
NATIONAL COMMITTEE FINISHES
IT'S WORK OF DECIDING WHO
SHALL ATTEND CONVENTION.
OF the 254 Contested Seats in the
National Convention, 235 Were
Awarded to President Taft and 10
to Colonel Roosevelt.

Chicago. The Republican national
committee concluded Saturday night
the hearing of contests involving 254
seats in the national convention.
OF the 254 contested seats, 235 were
awarded to President Taft, and 10 to
Theodore Roosevelt.
At the session of the committee on
Saturday, the president was awarded
sixty-two delegates, and Colonel
Roosevelt six.
All of Washington's fourteen went
to the president, against the protests
of Senator Poindexter that the coun,
try would Judge the case. Out of
Texas Taft secured twenty-six of the
contested thirty, over the PROSTATE
form of Colonel Cecil A. Lyon, who
declared "You may depose me now,
but / will be back four years from
now, when many of you will not"
In Virginia, where the issue was
drawn between colored voters and
the regular state organization, the
president received the entire contest
ed delegation of twenty. In the Dis.
trict of Columbia he won two, Com
mitteeman Sidney Bieber going to de.
feat with the Roosevelt delegation.
The finish of the long contest hear.
ings was marked by incidents more
strongly indicative of the division be
tween the Taft and Roosevelt forces
than any in the preceding days.

ECZEMA DISFIGURED BABY

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but a few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his little
face was disfigured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
1--WE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly We saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has
head Of hair which is pride for any
boy of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.
Albrecht, Box 1888, West Point Neb.,
Oct. 26, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold by druggists
and dealers everywhere, a sample of
each, with 32-page book, will be mailed
free on application to "Cuticura,"
