ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

r. r. D. No. 1, Lewisburg, Ky.-"Fif-
teen years ago 1 was badly affected
with eczema upon my scalp first, then
it spread all over my body and con-
tinued to grow worse for four years.
1t began with a dry rash. After form
ing thick scales or scabs the irritation
forced me to scratch the scabs off and
the hair would come out with them
Upon my face and body the sores
would get inflamed and they disfig
ured my face. 1t was worse where
my clothes irritated them. The erup-
ton was a yellowish watery kind,
sometimes bloody. In warm weather
it was so bad l was not able to work
on account Of the raw irritating sores
on my head and body.
After trying various medicines
without relief 1 tried Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. After using four cakes
of Cuticura Soap and four boxes of
Cuticura Ointment and one bottle Of
the Resolvent l was entirely sound

SUGAR From Wood.

Now they're making sugar out of
wood British chemists have found
that they can take a ton of sawdust
and get a quarter of a ton of sugar
out of it,
The process consists of putting the
sawdust into closed retort and sub
jecting it to digestion with a weak
solution of sulphuric acid under a
pressure of from 80 to 100 pounds to
the square inch. Eighty per cent. of
the sugar thus obtained is ferment-
able The product is called "sacchu-

EXPERIENCE
OF MOTHERHOOD
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience Of Motherhood is a try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or un-
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received a shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and a distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
a happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed childbirth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, a most valuable tonic and
invigorator Of the female organism.

prietors of billiard halls, cigar stores

ton filed in the district court today

charging Ike singer, Of the Singer
Cigar company with operating and
conducting a certain game Of chance
or slot machine. on April II last.
Since the anti-gambling law, with
emergency clause attached, passed
the state legislature, the crepe has
been hung on the ssor machines in
Albuquerque Certain lawyers have
expressed the opinion that the law
can be shot full Of holes if brought
to a test. The filing Of the Singer
case today will probably mean that
the gambling machines will be out Of
business for good or that they viii
be permitted to operate indefinitely

TO ACT AS FISCAL AGENTS
RESERVE INSTITUTIONS WILL
HANDLE THE FUNDS OF
THE GOVERNMENT.
ELASTICITY PROVIDED FOR
WHOLE SCHEME is CAREFULLY
WORKED OUT AND APPROVED
BY THE PRESIDENT.

Washington, April 22.-Chairman
owen of the senate banking and cur.
rency committee called its members
together today and advised them OF
the results OF informal conferences
with President Wilson, Secretary Nc
Adoo and Chairman Glass of the
house banking committee an the sub
ject of currency reform. Hearings
are to be arranged to be followed by
joint sessions of the currency COM
mittee Of both houses and senate.
While there has been no final
agreement, as yet, as to the main
features of currency reform, certain
prevalent ideas, some Of which event
ually may be found in the bill, be-
came known today. These include:
~ Fifteen regional reserve banks
which would act as fiscal agents for
the government
(2) A governing board to super
wise the regional reserve banks would
be established, to consist Of the sec
retary Of the treasury, the SECRETARY
Of agriculture and the comptroller of
the currency as ex-officio members;
four directors chosen by the banks of
the country and two directors ap-
pointed by the president OF the Unit
ed States.
(3) The elasticity Of the currency
would be provided for by conditions
calculated to prevent initiation. Any
notes issued would be redeemable in
gold by providing a reserve for ac-
tual gold redemption.
(D The extent to which the re-
serves could be used has not been de-
termined, but one plan is in favor Of
permitting their use under a reason
able tax.
90 One of the plans suggested and
which Representative Glass advoeat-
ed in recent speech was to retire
the present bond-secured currency,
not at once, but over a period of 10 to
Is years, which might involve a re-
funding of the two per cent bonds
with the circulation privilege into
three per cent bonds without their re-
lation privileges. AS the bond-secured
currency would be retired, substi-
tute currency based on commercial
paper Of a qualified class would auto
maticaIly take its place.

to limit their visits to one daily.
The Obersyatore Romano tonight,
for the first time since the pope fell

to the pontiffs health. An attendant
at the Vatican, however, gave out the
following bulletin:
The pope's temperature is normal.
He cannot yet be considered Quite
convalescent, but is near that stage.
He has not yet regained his strength
but it is hoped that his strong consti-

Governor johnson received Presi-
dent Wilson's telegram of protest
against the alien land bills at II
O'Clock and Immediately had it copied
into a special message to both houses
of the legislature.
No comment was offered by the
governor and the message contains
only a formal preface to the effect
that the telegram mad been received.
Wilson is pefied
The leaders Of the majority party
in the senate declared President vii
sons telegram did not affect their
intention to pass a law directed sole
ly against aliens ineligible to local
citizenship. Senator Thompson said
the president evidently misunder-
stood the attitude of the California
legislature
President Wilson seems to think
we are going to pass bill affecting
only the Japanese" said Thompson,
"and that is not the case. It will af-
feet all aliens who are ineligible to
citizenship, and this means all per
sons of Mongolian and Malaysian
stock will be restricted.

violate any of the treaty obligations
of the government. Every bill we

clause stating that the treaty rights
of every foreigner are 10 De suardH'
teed under the alien land act
Assemblyman w. F. Chandler, chair
man of the ways and means commit
tee of the lower house said:
President Wilson is absolutely
right. Throughout the state there
are large numbers Of Europeans, in
oluding Englishmen and scotchmen,
who are getting rich from the states
resources, but who refuse, neverthe-
less. to bear any Of the burdens OF
citizenship. They condemn the school
system and the laws. If such people
are not willing to become citizens
they should not stay here and enrich
themselves at the expense Of others
who would become citizens"
