ALMOST FRANTIC WITH
ITCHING ECZEMA

Eight years ago I got eczema all
over my hands. My fingers fairly bled
and it itched until it almost drove me
frantic. The eruption began with
itching under the skin. 1t spread fast
from between the fingers around the
nails and all over the whole hands.

wash dishes. Then it spread all over
the left side Of my chest. A fine doc
tor treated the trouble two weeks, but
did me no good. l cried night and
day. Then | decided to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment but without much
hope as l had gone so long. There
was a marked change the second day,
and so on until l was entirely cured.
The Cuticura Soap we have always
kept in our home, and We decided
after that lesson that it is a cheap
soap in price and the very best in
quality. My husband will use no other
soap in his shaving mug" (Signed)

MAKE BHEAD WITHOUT FLOUR
French Machine Transforms the
Wheat Directly Into Dough-
Loaves Are Filled With Holes.

In France bread has been made
without flour in a machine that trans
forms the wheat directly into dough
This machine shows a large screw
turning loosely in a case on the inner
surface of which is a screw thread
running in an opposite direction.
Between the main threads on the
cylinder are smaller threads and the
depths of the groove becomes progress.
sively smaller from one end to the
other, so that II will hold the entire
wheat grain as ii enters the machine,
at the same time accommodating only
the pulverzed wheat at the exit.
The wheat is prepared by thor
ough washing. after which operation,
says Harper's Weekly. about a pint of
tepid water to a pound of grain is
added, the whole mixture being al
lowed to stand some six hours Then
the grains of wheat have swollen to
twice their ordinary size.
The mixture is then treated with
yeast and salt and is poured into the
machine. 1t falls between the threads
of the moving screw and of the fiXeo
contrary screw. which simultaneously
crush the envelope and body of the
grain. making of them homogeneous
mixture that forms a smooth paste.
Bread made by this process con
tains a succession of holes whose size
increases as they approach the crust,
which is thin. The odor given off is
said to especially agreeable.

tian.
AS a matter of fact, the Copts are
solidly opposed to the plans and
methods of the nationalists. They say
that it is merely a subtle form Of the
old pan-Islamic propaganda, and that
what is really intended is to restore
the temporal power of the religion OF
the Prophet; when 1t would be good
bye to the liberty and equality which
the oft-persecuted Copts now enjoy
under British rule. A rather sinister
fact is pointed out in this connection.
The prime minister who was assassi-
mated by the nationalists was a Copt-
that is, an Egyptian of the ancient lin
eage-but the present prime minister
is perfectly acceptable because he is
Moslem, though he is Turk and a
foreigner.
Despite the dreams and ceaseless
plottiDgs of the pan-Islamists, the new
movement in Egypt will fail. Only

Jones and Brown argued as they al

They had dined together, and as Jones
lived at a distance and it was very
late Brown offered to put him up for
the night.
On the way home they fell to dis
cussing the strategy of the Civil war
as indicated by the campaigns of Lee
and Grant. The topic was elastic
enough to keep them going for halt
an hour, and reached its height as
they neared the Brown house.
Then Brown lost his temper

The Moslem Menace.

A diligent study of conditions in
Egypt leads me to the conviction that
the real root of the whole unrest lies
in the seemingly ineradicable antipa-
thy between Moslems and Christians.
1t is less because Great Britain is a
foreign power in Egypt than that il is
Christian power which makes it OBJ
jectionable. For thirteen centuries
Egypt has been under a Moslem gov
ornment; now to find herself under
Christian rule is CALLING TO the faith
full. Such men as Sheikh Shawfish.
the nationalist leader recently out of
prison with the halo of martyrdom on
his brow. frankly avowed to me that
the nationalists look forward to Turk
ish sovereignty. He said that ii was
because Great Britain was scared by
the success of constitutional govern
ment in Turkey, and the knowledge
that Turkey would never be content
to let Egypt remain out of her hands,
that the British stirred up this buga-
boo of sedition. He says that, in ter
ror of consequences. the British have
strengthened their forces at the Gulf
of Akbar. putting only Englishmen in
command, and are preparing to resist

ceding many really trivial demands OF
the nationalists, and explaining pa
tiently the present impracticability of
others, the ominous nationalist move
ment, 80 far as 1t is bona fide, would
have had scarcely leg to stand upon.
The bull-doggy attitude OF the admin
istration is not necessary to real firm
ness.
The Donkeys Favor British Rule.
The substantial and manifest advan-
tages of British rule are better illus
trated than explained at length The
donkeys of Egypt, for instance, would
vote unanimously for the present re-
gime II the suffrage were extended to
them. The simple reason is that it is
now against the law for a man to use
beast with sore back. The police
man may stop any donkey, camel or
horse on the highway, remove it's load,
and II its back is raw arrest the
driver. There are even policemen
for this special purpose. The great
Significance of this instance lies in the
fact that the Moslem seems to delight
in ill-treating and half-starving his
animals, and any European or Ameri
can travellers through Islamic coun
tries is in a constant state of indig
nation over the sore backs Of most OF
the beasts. Now in Egypt the Brit

straws, in fact-which shows the
trend of the new times is the fact
that the natives are no longer allowed
to torment travellers for backsheesh.
Egypt without its swarm Of beggars
and pseudo guides, crying back
sheesh," is almost inconceivable to
the travellers who know only the
Egypt of a few years ago. This mir
acle has been wrought. Signs have
been posted in trains. hotels, on ships
and at the principal sites, urging trav
elers to do their part in saving the
people from this pauperization. In the
same category might be mentioned
the dispensaries to deliver the land
from the curse of sore eyes and con-
sequent blindness.
The Bedouins have been made tract
able, the safety Of the whole country
has been assured, and the welfare and
prosperity of the people sought in ev-
cry conceivable way. The Nile dams
and improved irrigation, which have
enabled the fellah to make a good liv-
ing, in the possession of which COM
petence the government safeguards
him, are in themselves sufficient JUS
tification for the British occupation.
Old residents of the east have called
my attention to the fact that rs years
ago Syria was model of prosperity,
while Egypt was bankrupt and in the
grip Of all that goes with Oriental des
potism. Today Egypt's prosperity is
far ahead of anything Syria has ever
known, and educated young Syrian
men by the hundreds find employment
in Egypt and the Sudan. All this is
clear testimony to the beneficence OF
| British rule.

No Tariff LEGISLATION.

A Washington dispatch in Chica-
60 paper devotes much space to the
announcement that there will be no
tariff legislation at this session. This
is hardly to be called news. The
Democrats in the house have shown
their hostility to the tariff board and
its report on Schedule X. They have
no intention of framing legislation
based on that report, fearing appar
emily that 1t might rob them OF politi-
cal capital If they appeared to ap-
prove of the scientific method of tar
III revision introduced by Republican
president. 1t is just as certain that
the Republicans in the senate and the
president will not approve legislation
framed by the Democrats in disregard
of the facts shown by that report.
The net result of the session on the
tariff will be to keep that topic avail
able for campaign ammunition, which
seems to be all that the politicians at
Washington can think about on that
subject at present. But the country
may prove to have its own ideas about
the matter and about the rejection OF
the presidents attempt to have tar

The movement is backed by the So

to be held In st. Paul Feb. 20 and
