ECZEMA SPREAD OVER BODY

Roxbury, Ohio.-"When my little boy
was two weeks old he began breaking
out on his cheeks. The eczema began
just with pimples and they seemed to
itch so badly he would scratch his
face and cause a matter to run.
Wherever that matter would touch it
would cause another pimple until 1t
spread all over his body. 1t caused
Disagreement while 1t lasted. He had
fifteen places on one arm and his
head had several. The deepest places
on his cheeks were as large as a sill
yer dollar on each side. He was so
restless at night we had to put nit
tens on him to keep him from scratch
ing them with his finger nails. If he
got a little too warm at night it
seemed to hurt badly.
I'VE tried a treatment and he didn' {
get any better, He had the eczema
about three weeks when we began
using Cuticura Soap and Ointment. l
bathed him at night with the Cuticura
Soap and spread the Cuticura ONT
ment on and the eczema left.

eotch Holds zbyszko With WalstIock

The GROWING achievement of
Gotch's career came in his match with
Stanislaus Zbyszko, the Polish cham
pion, June 1, 1910. at Chicago. AL
though the big Pole was one of the
strongest grapplers who ever came to
America, Gotch performed the wonder
full feat of flattening this Hercules on
the padded canvas for the first fall in
6 2-5 seconds, a record of all time in a
worlds championship match.
The genuineness of this fall has
been assailed by some, but the best
critics Of the mat have asserted there
was nothing fulky about it. When the
referee calls time" the battle is on.
Shaking hands then is a mere formali-
ty. Gotch obtained his hold after the
call of time and after handshake. 1t
was simply an exhibition of marvellous
speed conquering and trucking won
derful strength into defeat.
Zbyszko had defeated all the Amer
lean wrestlers, crushing them beneath
his giant proportions by sheer
strength. He was slow, but he was
wonderfully strong and possessed
great endurance. When Gotch and the
champion of Poland met for the
worlds championship, the Coliseum in
| Chicago, with its vast seating capacity,
was packed to the doors.
Gotch played the joke of the age
on Zbyszko in the first bout which
was over before the crowd could catch
a second breath or settle back in the
seats after the preliminary excite
ment Gotch backed away from his
corner at the call of time and wheeled
around. There was a lightning hand
shake and in the twinkling of an eye
Gotch had grabbed Zbyszko with a
reverse half nelson and bar arm and
drawn him to the mat. The bout had
lasted less than seven seconds.
The referee patted Gotch on the
back in token of victory. The worlds
champion stood back and laughed
heartily, but Zbyszko looked discom-
fitted and chagrined. The big Pole
was more than surprised. He was
dumbfounded
Stung to the quick over Cotch's
trickery and exhibition Of speed.
Zbyszko wrestled cautiously in the
second bout, and pushed and pun
meleG the worlds champion. Cotch
made dive for the Poles legs, but
Zbyszko dived away. Gotch in his
eagerness to secure a leg hold went to

PIT SULPHUR 0N Al ITCHING SKIN s ) END ECZEMA lis old-time Eczema 'dy is applied like
 Cold Cream

Any irritation breaking out on the race arms. legs body when accom- 1anied by itching, or when the skin is dry and feverish. can be readily over come oy applying little bold-sulphur cream, says a noted dermatologist
 He states that bold-suphur instantly alays the angry itching and irritation ana soothes and heals the Eczema right UP leaving the skin clear and smooth. Bold-sulphur has occupied secure position for many years in the treatment Of cutaneous disorders because of It's nar- asite-destroyng property. Nothing has ever been found to take its place in treat ing the irritable and infiammatory skin directions. While not always establishine permanent cure it never fails to subdue the itching irritation and drive the F,c zema away and it is often years later before any eruption again appears on the skin.
 Those troubled should obtain at any pharmacy an ounce of old-sulphur crea n, which is applied to the affected parts in the same manner as an ordinary cold cream.

It Is to emphasize this eff feet that he insists upon having the lights kept burning in his private of flee each night until the presses be- gin to turn. and everything there kept in full readiness for him. Pencils, ink pens and stationery are properly ar ranged upon his desk upon which, too are placed morning and afternoon all editions of the New York daily papers.

Capitalizing Sentiment

The two bunting manufacturers in Lowell have a much more substantial protection in sentiment than they could have In the tariff. British bids for bunting for the navy were a good deal lower than those of the American man. lecturers. but 1t would be embarrassing to use a foreign material in the manu : faoture of Old Glory.
 We have no doubt that the thrifty Lowell manufacturers have capitalized all this sentiment, It would be absurd for them-to compete with each other, or with foreigners, and the fact that they bid about $100o0 more than English manufacturers does not prove that 1t costs more to make bunting here than 1t does there.

Chambers the Man He Picked

| the next morning to interview the pas sengers. The first one over the side was Julius Chambers then just start ing his newspaper career. MT. Bennett met him and after inquiring his name sent him back to the Herald office. Chambers entered upon his duties as city editor that same day
 speaking to me afterward of this occurrence Mir. Bennett smiled grfmly and said:
 MT. Chambers took himself too se- riously. He didn't last long-three months l think"
 That MT Bennett derives humor from the humiliations his position en- ables him to force upon those over whom he possesses power is unques- tlonably true, but his humor at times takes less cruel turn. On one of his visits to New York his suspicious were aroused by the neatness of all the members of the staff of the Herald. As he left the office one midnight he came upon reporter, who, while on an er- rand in the composing room, had got heavy smear of ink on his face. The fortunate youth received an immediate increase in salary and was compli- mented for being the only one about the establishment who appeared to be doing any real work.
 This incident made a deep impress sion upon the younger men in the of flee. MT Bennett had decided to take some one back with him for editorial services on the Paris edition of the Herald. His selection rested between two men, both of whom were in structed to see him at his New York home the next evening.

Thomas Brooks Fletcher the well
known lecturer of Chautauqua fame
gave his lecture "The Martyrdom of
Fools" Monday evening in the college
auditorium, it being the fourth number
of the Y. NJ. G.. A. Lecture and All Star

Mr.. Fletcher proved a speaker of I'M
usual ability and remarkable person
ality, presenting his subject in a some
what indirect but forceful manner
During the evening he brought out
many truths relative to existing evils
social and others-adding to their
effectiveness by his frequent illustra-
lions. These as well as other more
important portions of the lecture were
greatly emphasized by his intense and
dramatic delivery.
DR.. Stainer is announced to give a

AWFoR SPEAKS

Senator Coe l.. Crawford delivered
an address at the opera house Friday
evening in the interests of his cam
paign for reelection. The hall was
comfortably filled and there was prob
ably 400 people present. The candi-
dates of the majority faction occupied
seats on the stage and tried to look at
eas M. G. Carlisle was chairman of
the meeting.
The first speaker was c. G. Caldwell
candidate for attorney general, who
discussed state issues, particularly the
tax question, which has been agitated
so much. Mr.. Caldwell is a fluent and
convincing speaker and he put up a
mighty good argument for his side,
that could not have failed to make an
impression on the crowd.
Senator Crawford occupied most of
the evening with his personal cam
paign. The senator is a little stouter
and a little older looking than when
here last and he did not seem to put
up the old aggressive talk, although he
was aggressive enough at times and
sarcastic most of the time. He ex-
planned in detail his record in the SEN
ate during the last five years and ap-
parently made a fair presentation of
it. He paid his respects to the Pierre
editors in particular and newspaper
men in general, remarking sarcastical-
ly that you had to watch them or they
would beat you. Coe l. is perhaps to
be excused for his antagonism to the
newspaper men, as the majority Of
them have been watching him for
years and have never lost an oppor-
tunity to say what they thought of
him. Coe Isaac's speech here would
indicate that his enemies have him on
the defensive, as he spent most of his
time explaining things. But on the
whole it was a good speech and may
have made him some votes.

road machinery, but every cent OF
money in the auto fund will be used
for road work.
Commissioner Davis of Elkton, was
in the city yesterday and explained to
us the attitude of the board, or rather
the majority of them who voted
against the purchase of the machinery.
They could not see where the county
would be benefited by spending the
peoples money for engines and grad
ers when they could hire machinery
to better advantage. They can hire
the work done practically as cheap as
they could maintain a crew of their
own and not have several thousand
dollars tied up in machinery. If the
county owned the machinery 1t would
have to be transferred from one cor
ner of the county to the other, at con-
siderable expense and at some wear
and tear. The idea of the board Is to
cooperate with the township in road
work and in this way there will be no
waste of labor or money and each
section of the county will receive its
just proportion of the auto fund. This
fund will all be used on the roads of
the county this year, said Mr.. Davis,
as the board realizes that the senti.
ment of the county is in favor of road
work, and they have never had any in.
tention Of allowing this money to lay
idle in the treasury.
When the Register printed the article
above mentioned we had no intention
of disappearing the attitude of the
board, and w are glad of the opportun.
ity to set them right before the people
of the county.

at the opera house last evening, at his
own request, Col. Luce conferred with
the Madison Commercial Club stand
ing railroad committees at the club
rooms. 1t was the desire of the COM
mittees to learn what the Short Line
company would require of the people
of Madison in the way of purchase of
stock in the company in order to Sc
cure the line to this city. This ques-
ton, however, Col. Luce stated he was
unable to answer at the moment, and
the standing committee of the Com
mercial Club made an appointment to
meet Col. Luce and other officials of
the company in Minneapolis next
Wednesday when this preliminary will
be settled.
Secretary Morgan of the Mitchell
Commercial Club was in the city to
watch the curse Of events, and it is
understood that he proposed to Col.
Luce that If the road could be built to
that city, Mitchell would provide right
of way within the city and subscribe to
almost any amount Of stock the com.
pany demanded.
ut is perhaps needless to say that
the electric line is the best proposition
that has been placed within the reach
of Madison in the history of the city,
and we believe it is so regarded by the
sentiment shown at last evenings
meeting. Col. Luce wants to build the
line to Madison and has denied other
towns in this vicinity the privilege,
giving Madison the preference. But it
is a business proposition and the peo-
pie of Madison will be called upon to
help themselves by taking a certain
amount of stock in the company, the
same as Brookings has done and the
same as Minnesota towns along the
line have done"
