FACE BROKE OUT A IN RED SPOTS
Blotchy All Over. Became Scaly. Scratched Until Made Them Bleed. Used Cuticura Soap and 0int- ment. Face and Head Cured.

c4 Gilbert St., New Britain, Conn. = "My little boys face used to get awful red and sometimes when used to wash it it would bleed. Then it got blotchy all over and was horrid looking. His face broke out in red spots and then became scaly. He used to scratch them until he would make them bleed. Then his head started to break out. He was restless at night and com plained of his face being sore. His head was all little cuts from scratching it.
 ''So thought I would send for sample of the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I only used them for few days when there was such a change in his looks. His facs began to get clear. When the sample was gone got one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment. l washed his face with the Cuticura Soap and warm water every night and morning and applied the Cuticura Ointment for four weeks and his face was cured. l got another cake Of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint- ment and was only using them for two weeks and they made his scalp nice and clean. His head was cured; (Signedl Mr& Isabelle Guenther. May 26, 1913.

 In his petition MT. Barber asserts that the rates 'are unreasonable and eXorbitant and unjustly discriminatory, and are larger than those of other companies doing business in the same line in this vicinity: that it's rates are not uniform and the petitioner, who is a large consumer of electricity, is charged 25 cents per kilowatt. while the said company is supplying cleo tricity to other consumers in the ter ritory Which it supplies for much low CT rates, in some cases as low as five cents per kilowatt"
 Concluding the petition, Mir Barber asks that the aforesaid, the Wester- ly Light and Power company, may be required to answer the charges herein made, and that a public hearing upon this petition be heard in Westerly, Watch Hill, or some other convenient place in the territory which said com pany supplies, and that 8. full hearing and investigation into the rates charged by said company may be granted, and that this petitioner be granted such relief as may be reason able and just. and that an order may be made fixing the rates of said com panv in the future. including the rates 10 be charged the petitioner herein and for such other and further orders as may be deemed. just and proper in the premises

HERE AT HOME.
VOL. V.

We Americans are wonder think of
all our mighty deeds!
That's the subject of the present
little "pome;"
We can oversee the nations and sup
ply their crying needs,
But we're mighty poor providers
here at home
We can search for destitution in the
corners of the earth,
Like a woman hunting "boogers"
with a comb,
Sending food in great abundance
where there's any sign of dearth,
But we cannot feed the hungry here
at home.
We are great at arbitration under far
off alien skies,
And it's easy making peace beyond
the foam;
We can settle all the fuses that in
Mexico arise,
But we can't keep peace and order
here at home.
We can send the blessed gospel to
the Dagoes and Chinks,
Building churches both in Shanghai
and in Rome;
We can wash and save the Feejee
who's so evil that he stinks,
But we can't convert the heather
here at home.

FASHIONABLE CHURCHES

While in Washington City a
few days ago [ was passing
through the multi-millionaire Sec
tion with friend who pointed out
to me a great, fine Catholic
church which he described as "a
very fashionable and exclusive
church. Did you get that 2
Fashionable and exclusive
church" Was Jesus "fashion-
able" or ''exclusive?" No indeed
Then how utterly ridiculous are
such words in connection with
people who pretend to be the fol-
lowe RS of the meek and lowlv
Nazarene! If such blasphemous
idolaters don't fetch up one of
these days in very fashionable
and exclusive hell, it will be a
wonder to me.

And when His Holy Smugness
got on the stand it would have
been funny to hear him if it had
not been so pitiful. He admitted
that he had not had much time to
look into the working and living
conditions Of those who were slav-
ing for him in Colorado, but he
blandly repeated his old threat
that unionism should be crushed
out even if it bankrupted his com

Whoop! Sick-em! What news,
what news! Here it comes
straight from the Treasury De-
partment that Secretary McAdoo
has taken his adoring eyes off his
blushing bride long enough to
discover the Income Tax law is a
failure. And he seems utterly
astonished at the discovery. Well,
bless my time, what did McAdoo
think it was intended to dog Sue
ceed? If so, he is a bigger fool
than [ took him to be. I don't
claim to be any expert in such
matters, but [ knew all the time
that the thing would not succeed.
It was never intended for any
such purpose. It's only object was
to make the hayseeds think they
were getting something, thus
throwing them off their guard and
giving the robbers a still better
chance
Mr.. McAdoo should read his
Fool-Killer little more carefully,
and he might avoid some Of these
awful shocks and surprises. It is
great pity that Mr.. McAdoo has
been too busy all his life to ac-
quaint himself with the simple
fact that you can't work any
tricks on a millionaire. For every
income tax law you can pass, the
money kings can study up ten
ways Of lodging it. You might
as we'll try measuring wind in
shifter. A millionaire is an ex-
pensive luxury, and the poor man
always foots the bill. If he don It
foot it directly, he does it indi-
rectly-it always come out of his
pocket.
And yet Mr.. William G.. Nc
Adoo, Secretary Of the Treasury
and brand-new son-in-law of the
President, was actually surpris-
ed that the income tax law didn It
just make flitter-tre grow in
every mans yard. Say, Mac, a
good plan is to never expect any
thing, and then you won t be dis
appointed.

ONLY A FALSE ALARM.

And so we had all that terrible
scare for nothing. Well, I'll be
doggoned! The sad, sad news
came wopefully out Of South
America that the only Toothadore
had accidently drop
ped his beautiful smile in the riv-
er and had almost lost his life
trying to rescue it. Then we were
treated to a fine assortment OF
sob stuff telling all about how the
Lion-Eater was getting hollow
eyed, flabby-muscled, and shaky
in the knees. He was losing his
strenuosity and slowly petering
out. Even the Affections Of Job
had settled upon him and the dogs
were out on a strike. It looked
like we would soon have to send
an expedition down there to sift
the sands Of South America and
bring home his teeth in a wheel
barrow.
That was the way the, sensa-
tional news-mongers tried to
make it appear, and they had us
scared until we couldn't see
straight. But, O glory halleluyer
What sweet relief it was when the
mighty exploder (excuse me-I
mean mighty explorer) again
stamped his feet on Uncle Sam s
dirt and assured us that he is still
very much alive.
No, sir, the Lion-Choker has not
lost his helath, his habits, nor his
hold on the advertising business.
The picture Of him enjoying him
self in his good old comfortable
way at a snake-fght and having
a perfectly bully time brings the
tears Of grateful gladness to a
million eyes. The natives, of
course, being unfamiliar with the
Matchless One, were stricken with
terror when at the close Of the
snake-fight he grabbed the vic
torious snake and performed a
few graceful evolutions while
twining it around his neck. The
poor, ignorant savages were
fearful lest the deadly snake
should bite the Kernel. But lawsy-
massy! Ii they had known him as
well as we do their misgivings
would have been turned the other
way. Just suppose the Kernel had
bitten the snake!
