With Eczema Her Limb Peeled and Foot Was Raw Thought Amputa tion Was Necessary Believes Life Saved by Cuticura. "I have been treated by doctors for twenty-five years for a bad caso of eczema on my leg. They did their best, but failed to cure It. My doctor had advised me to have my leg cut off. At. this time my leg was peeled from the knee, my foot was like a piece of raw flesh, and I had to walk on crutches. I bought a set of Cuticura Remedies After the first two treatments the swelling went down, and in two months my leg was cured and the new skin came on. The doctor was sur prised and said that he would use Cuticura for his own patients. I have now been cured over sJen years, and but for the Cuticura Remedies might have lost my life. Mrs. J. B. Renaud, 277 Montana St., Montreal, Que., Feb. 20, 1907." Sensible to the Last. An old Scotch woman used to be attended by a doctor to whom she in variably gave a guinea when he went to see her. He had told the friends with whom she lived that her death would probably be sudden, nnd one day he was hurriedly sent for, as she appeared to have become unconscious On his arrival he saw at once that she was dead, and, taking hold of her right hand, which was closed but not rigid, he calmly extracted from It the fee which she had provided for him, and as ho did so, ho murmured: "Sensible to the last." Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory If the right' Starch were used. In order to get the; desired stiffness, it is usually neces sary to use so much starch that the, beauty and fineness of the fabric is' hidden behind a paste of varying' thickness, which not only destroys the, appearance, but also affects the wear-; ing quality of the goods. This trou-f ble can be entirely overcome by using; Defiance Starch, as it can be applied! much more thinly because of its great er strength than other makes. The Explanation.

DEFENSE OF THE BACHELOR. Baltimore Man Points Out a Few Facts Generally Overlooked. As a matter of fact, It Is obvious that more crimes arc committed by married men than by single men, for the simple reason tthnt many offenses exceedingly popular among the former are entirely Impossible to the latter. One such crime is wife murder. How could a single man murder his wife? Thero are 775 wife murderers in tho United States every year, nnd nil are committed by married men. Again, consider the crime of doinontclde, or mother-in-lnw killing. Its practice is confined entirely to married men. And forget not the lesser felonies and mis demeanors. How could a singlo mnn elopo with his wife's sister? How could he desert his children? How could he commit bigamy? How could he flirt with his wife's maid? How could he be accused of non-support? What Incentive is there for him to cheat the gas meter, swindle tho in stalment man or rob his brother-in-law at poker? Being prosperous, well fed and happy as all bachelois are why should he steal, forge, embezzle, burgle or fight? Baltimore Sun.
