CuIpabIe Bank Officials Punished.

The tribunal at BuIach, near Zurich
Switzerland, after three days trial
of the chief officials Of the local saw
ings bank, which failed for the hugo
sum of s1,400,00O in 1910, involving in
ruin thousands Of the Swiss poorer
classes, has given it's verdict. Three
directors were acquitted, four were
sentenced to Imprisonment for terms
varying from Is days to three months,
whilst the cashier, Albrecht, received
one years penal servitude. From the
point of view of British justice the
sentences are very lenient, but the
principal culprit, Muller, who lost all
the money and shot himself soon after
his arrest, was the chief manager, and
the directors, who had too much faith
in him. also lost heavily. Since 1910
several directors Of this bank have
died and a number Of ruined creditors
have taken their lives.

WHITE PlMPLES ON HEAD

Ransom. Ill.-"The trouble started
on our baby when he was only about
two weeks old. Started like little
white pimples, looked like an ole scab
of blood and matter His whole head
was covered for few months, then 1t
went to his ear, shoulders, and his
whole body 1t seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head, while
on the other parts of his body it was
more like water coming out of the
skin. He would scratch until the erup-
ton would be all covered with blood
and gradually spread. The least little
stir or rub would cause the sores to
bleed, spread and itch. Never had a
full nights sleep, restless all night.
1.-The sores were horrid to look at.
It lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an &C.
zema advertisement in the paper to
use -, but it did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura Oint-
ment On thick at bed time and put a
tight hood on so he could not scratch
the sores Then we washed it clean
with Cuticura Soap and warm water
twice a day, and he was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. E. f. SulZber-

REMINDED HER OF OLD DAYS
Real Od-Fashioned House Cleaning
in the City Interesting Because
of Its Novelty.

There's real old-fashioned house
cleaning going on next door," said the
girl who lives on the top floor, "and
it's so long since | saw anything ap-
preaching it that it seems mighty in
teresting. People move SO much in
New York that there doesn't appear
to be any more reason for houseclean-
ing. They have rugs instead of car
pets and they hang pictures on tacks
and leave their curtains up all sum
mer, which no self-respecting woman
would do in the old days.
But next door they are beating car
pets and painting shutters and they've
hung all the winter clothes out on the
lines and washed the blankets and
whitewashed the cellar and put the
window screens out and played the
hose on them, and you can just mag
inc how clean and cool and shining
the house will be when it's all over
with. OF course it is not SO easy as
the new way of hiring housekeeping
companies that bring their air brooms
and other apparatus that do the job
up in twenty-four hours or so, but you
cannot convince an old housekeeper
that the machine way of cleaning
house Is better than the old way any
more than you could make her believe
pure food pickles are equal to the
homemade kind. Press York Press.

postoffice he will thrust his wizened

his slow, Yankee drawl, inquire most
earnestly:
Hey We got any postal cards?'
Yes" the postmaster replies.
"Haow much be they t'day?"
"A cent apiece"
Then the boy, screwing up his eyes
in the intensity of his thought over
the question he has to decide, always
stops for a while to weigh the con.

RHEUMATIC ADVICE
Prominent Doctors Best Prescrjp-
ton Easily Mixed at Home.

from your druggist get one ounce
of Toris compound Gin original sealed
PACKAGE and one ounce of syrup OF
Sarsaparilla compound. Take these
two ingredients home and put them
into a half pint of good whiskey
Shake the bottle and take table
spoonful before each meal and at bed
time" This is said to be the quickest
and best remedy known to the medical
profession for rheumatism and back
ache. Good results come after the first
dose. If your druggist does not have
Toris compound in stock he will get
1t for you Elm a few hours from his
wholesale house. Don't be influenced
TO take a patent medicine instead of
this. Insist on having the genuine Toris
compound in the original one-ounce. seal
ed yellow package. Hundreds of the
worst cases were cured here by this pre-
scription last winter. Published by the
