PRACTICAL AND ACADEMICAL.
GS{oux CITY Tribune

The republican party was over
whelmingly prosperous when Mr.. Taft
was given command.
At the end of two years the demo-
Gratis We're overwhelmingly prosperous.
Meanwhile Mr.. Taft had lost all his
original friends and gained over all his
original enemies.
The fact that he won in 1908 shows
that his old friends were in the ma
forty. The fact that he lost in 1910
elbows that his new friends were still
in the minority.
He is trying to fight this years fight
with his new friends.
There is nothing more to say on the
practical side.
Any other discussion is academical.

AN IOWA CONVENTION.

An iowa political convention is com :
posed Of very fine looking body Of
men This Is true OF all political parties.
This is an intelligent state and when
you get together 1900 or more men Sc
lected to represent large proportion OF
that Intelligent population, you natur-
ally have Incorporating body.
It is matter Of state pride that the
men who have gathered here this week
bear the stamp ofvery high intelligence
and Of very high industrial and busi-
ness ability and energy. Within few
weeks We will be entertaining another
appearing body of men, just as
intelligent. just as energetic and Just
as patriotic. They will be democrats
differing from their republican brethren
in name and possibly in some other
things. But you never could pick out
any other differences unless you heard
them discuss public questions. they
look very much alike, and that means
that they all look like high class citi-

She tried to sell them to her neighbors.
The neigibors needed them badly, but
they were poor and couldn't afford TO
pay the cash for them. So instead OF
giving them away or holding them un-
til her neighbors could rake up the
money, this old shrew built bonfire
and burned them in her back yard!
She is afflicted with Unborn stinginess,

A PRAYER.

CAfanson Democrat
May the God who rules alike on land
and sea be very good to the souls he
called to Him 50 suddenly on that
Sunday night, and may the example
Of their heroism and sacrifice live ever
with those to whom it has been held
up with such terrible exactness. while
may He send comfort, help and
strength to the dear ones left alone in
sorrow and loneliness by the going out
Of their beloved dead, and may the
soft light shed by the honor given them
in their heroic end, by an admiring
world, give them sweet solace in their
Gethsemane.

CUTICURA S0AP2"

There h nothing the matter with
my skin, and l thought Cuticura Soap
was only for skin troubles" True, it
is for skin troubles, but its great mis-
sion is to prevent skin troubles. For
more than a generation its delicate
emollient and prophylactic properties
have rendered it the standard for this
purpose, while its extreme purity and
refreshing fragrance give to it all the
advantages of the best Of toilet soaps.
1t is also Invaluable In keeping the
hands soft and white, the hair live
and glossy, and the scalp free from
dandruff and irritation.
While its first cost is a few cents
more than that Of ordinary toilet
soaps, 1t is prepared with such care
and Of such materials, that it wears
to a wafer, often outlasting several
cakes of other soap, and making its
use, in practice, most economical.
Cuticura Soap is sold by druggists and
dealers everywhere, but the truth Of
these claims may be demonstrated
without cost by sending to "Cuticura,"
