A BURNING ERUPTION FROM
HEAD TO FEET
"Four years ago I suffered severely
with a terrible eczema , being a mass
pf sores from head to feet and for six
weeks confined to my bed. During
that time I suffered continual torture
from itching and burning. After being
given up by my doctor I was advised
jto try Cuticura Remedies. After the
first bath with Cuticura Soap and ap-
plication of Cuticura Ointment I en-
joyed the first good sleep during my
entire illness. I also used Cuticura
Resolvent and the treatment was con-
tinued for about three weeks. At ttie
end of that time I was able to be
r about the house , entirely cured , and
have felt no ill effects since. I would
t , advise any person suffering from any
form of skin trouble to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies , as I know what they
did for me. Mrs. Edward Nenning ,
1112 Salina St , Watertown , N. Y. ,
Apr. 11 , 1909. "
Well , Wasn't He Right ?
The minister was addressing the
Sunday school. "Children , I want to
talk to you for a few moments about
one of the most wonderful , one of the
most important organs in the whole
world " he said. "What Is that that
throbs away , beats away , never stop-
ping , never ceasing , whether you
. wake or sleep , night or day , week in
o. and week out , month in and month
out , year in -and year out , without any
volition on your part , hidden away in
the depths , as it were , unseen by you ,
throbbing , throbbing rhythmically all
your life long ? " During this pause
for oratorical effect a small voice was
heard : "I know. It's the gas meter. "
Looked Like a Pattern.
"My dear , " asks the thoughtful hus-
band , "did you notice a large sheet
; of paper with a lot of diagrams on it
about my desk ? "
"You mean that big piece with dots
and curves and diagonals and things
all over it ? "
"Yes. It was my map of the path
of Halley's comet I wanted to- "
"My goodness ! I thought it was that
pattern I asked you to get , and the
dressmaker is cutting out my new
shirtwaist by it ! " -Chicago Evening

"Won't you permit me , " he said , "to

is a certain shyness about one of your
eyes which is as difficult in art as it
is fascinating in nature."Beacon.

TELLS HOW IT FEELS TO FALL
- -
Circus Performer Relates Several of
His Hair-Raising Experiences
While Doing Stunts.
, -
"How does It feel to fall ? " was asked
of an acrobat who had had several
hair-raising experiences.
"It feels like something happening
which I knew perfectly well was go-
Ing to happen , " he answered , thought-
;
fully. "In my big fall , three years
ago , when we were touring the west.
I felt as if I had fallen before. The
sensation was perfectly familiar , al I
though it was my first accident. Most i
of us have premonitions. For instance ,
1 knew that on that night I was going i
to have a tumble. I always work
without a net , but I was almost tempt-
ed to have one stretched. For fear
that the others would talk about it. :
I did not , although I afterward wished 1
that I had. Of course I fell. It may
be the sixth sense , or it may be a
guardian angel that warns us.
"Whatever it is , there are few cir -
cus performers without a lively sense I
of it at times. When it gives the sig I
nal the wisest thing to do is to lay I
off for a performance regardless of
consequences ; but I have never
heard of anybody giving in to it
like that. The evening that I came
nearest to passing in my checks I
climbed to my little swinging trapeze
up near the top of the tent , and when
I was about half through my act I
felt a rope slip and in less than a sec-
onl I was plunging down head first
and due to strike on a curb of the ring
unless I could change my course. I
did not lose consciousness ; instead ,
every faculty seemed more than ever
alive. I realized , too , that I must re
lax my muscles unless I wanted to be
broken to bits. Thoughts of what
would happen If I were killed flitted
through my mind , along with insur-
ance , what my wife would do and say , I
who would do my act , and no end of
things , all in less time than it takes
to think of them now. Anybody who
has dreamed of falling has a pretty
clear idea how It feels to go off.-
Leslie's Weekly.
Clothes Explode.
What was actually an explosion of
Floyd Shannon's clothing so severely
burned him that he died at Mercy hos-
pital , says the Detroit News. Shan-
non was employed In the chlorate rooms .
ot the North American Chemical com-
pany. The chemical is extremely ex
plosive in dust form. Shannon's cloth-
ing was impregnated with impalpable
potassium chloride powder and a
spark that flew from a chised which he
wau driving upon a piece of Iron ig-
nited the powder. Shannon rushed into
the open air with his clothing torn to
pieces and flaming. A fellow-employee
ran after him , knocked him down and
rolled him In the mud , extinguishing
the blaze , but flesh came off with the
few remnants of clothing , so badly
was the man burned. Shannon . was
unmarried.

Rich Beggar Moves.
I
'Monsieur" Gauthier , one of the most
.
familiar figures in the beggars' brig-
ade of Detroit , whose savings from the
alms given him are estimated to be '
'I
close to $17,000 , has decided to shake
the dust of Detroit from his leet , since
he was fined $25 In Justice Stein's
court for striking with a broom Mrs.
Josephine Renaldo , who lives In the
same house.
Gauthier has been arrested numer-
ous times before , but through his crip-
pled condition and apparent poor
health , he has always managed to en-
list the sympathy of the court , and
has received light punishment.
One of Gauthier's favorite methods
of begging for alms Is to kneel in
front of the steps of a church just as
the services are concluded and solicit
from the church throng.-Detroit News.
Not Meant That Way.
"Some folks want funny inscriptions
engraved on their silver , " said the
jeweler. "Take wedding knives.
Many wedding cakes are such moun-
tainous affairs that a special knife is
required to cut them. One of lab : . i
month's brides cut her cake with a
knife that was a present from her
aunt. I guess not many of the guests
got to read the inscription ; if they 1
had they would be talking about it II I I
yet. Those knives are supposed to be !
used for cutting the bride's cake and I
then laid on the shelf for the rest of
time , but the aunt couldn't distinguish
apparently between wedding and birth-
day cakes , for she made us engrave
on the knife : 'May I serve thee well
and often. "
The Exploit That Counted.
Two Staten island youngsters : came
home from a picnic sopping wet.
"We jumped in after a lady , " they
said.
said.Then
Then one of the pair showed his
mother a $5 bill that the woman had
given him.
"She gimme that , " said he , "because I
I saved her pocketbook. "
"And didn't she give you anything ? "
said their mother to the other boy. "I
thought you helped. "
"I did , " said he , "but I didn't save
anything but the lady. "
Fashions of the Late King.
Many people thought that King Ed-
wnid set the fashion for men. He did
not Fashion is a capricious creature
and takes no notice of monarchs. The
late king was hardly ever seen with-
out a flower in his coat when custom
was against the "buttonhole. " Con-
trary to the general belief the king
had no special tailor. "He gives us !
all a turn , " is how a St James street I
tradesman expressed it

ESSAY ON WINDOW SCREENS
Contrivances Which Are Erroneously
Supposed tc Elar the Festive Hous : e-
fly and Pestiferous Mosquito.
Window screens are neat little col
lections of square holes surrounded
by thin wire and Inclosed In frames.
The thin wire rusts off or breaks
and some of the holes run together.
This . enables the Hies to come in and
walk on your bald spot or enjoy a si-
esta en your nose while you are try
ing to get that last half hour of sleep
in the morning. !
Screens are also intended to bar out
mosquitoes. The -mosquito is a per-
sistent brute however , and when It
bumps against a screen will calmly
SIt down and starve until it has re-
duced itself sufficiently to crawl
: through.
I Screens are stored in the attic or
the basement during the winter. If
they are put in the attic they are
placed where old ! trunks may be
heaped upon them , thus giving them a
battered effect similar to heirlooms.
If they are placed in the cellar the
furnace man steps on them frequently
ami sometimes uses them to sift ashes
through.
Wnen they are taken out in the
spring it is found that none of them
will fit the window you want it to.
The mental exercise of sorting out
the screens is equal to that afforded
by hitting your thumb while driving a
i-ail.
iail.A
A man can save a lot of money by
making his own screens. It is a
simple matter to enlarge or reduce
the window openings to fit them after .
they are completed. . .
One of the unique punishments of
'the ' warm section of the hereafter
will be the screen making and fitting
department for neighbors who watch
and advise the work In this life. - Chi .

Scotch Temper.
It is characteristic of the tempera-
ment of that marvelous and highly en-
dowed race , the Scotch , that it brings
I into its opinions something of the Pu-
ntnri sternness , of the racial uncom-
promising spirit , of the prefervid con-
viction which have made its religion
according to John Knox. And thus
it ol'ten comes to pass that the very
Scotchmen who have abandoned John
Knox and even have come to abhor .
:
his doctrines , yet remain John Knoxes
I
; a tteir new creeds. They bring to
I avowed agnosticism the same impa-
tient , intolerance , and thoroughness
Which iormerly they gave to the strait

Beginning of the Germ Theory.
Agostino Bassi , a country doctor in
I the north ot Italy , early in the last
century was the starter of the germ
theory or' disease. At that time a pe
, culiar disease was killing the silk-
I worms , bringing ruin to the whole silk
industry of Italy. Bassi , by : the mi-
croscope , discovered the germ which
is the cause or' the disease. The germ
I
later was named Botritis Bassiana.
Bassi believed and stated that human
diseases were also caused by germs.
' Bassi's work was sneered at and pooh-
'I hooed by his fellow men and physi-
cians and he failed to make a lasting
impression , thereby losing great glory
for Italia.

Her Sacrifice.
I
She held her cigarette rather pret-
tily though she had been smoking only
two years , she said.
"Do you know how I came to
smoke ? " she asked. "It was to see
what effect it would have on my hus-
band. I thought cigars had a bad ef
fect on him , so I wanted him smoke
cigarettes instead. I tried them on my-
self , found the effect was not injuri-
ous , so now we both smoke. "
Her visitors exchanged glances.
"How self-sacrificing you are ! " they
smiled. Exchange.
She Could Forget That.
"Yoi : know your friend Haskell ? "
sne said. "Well , he put his arm around
me coming home the other night in
the car. "
"Why didn't you slap him in the
I
lace ? ' he asked furiously.
, . .
" \ \ ' ( > 11. you know , " saiQ she "I
couldn't because he's i. friend of
yours. "
"Another time , " he said suavely ,
"you needn't mind about his being a
friend of mine. "
She Knew Their Wants.
"How did your printer happen to get
this cut placed right ? " asked the
artist , as they looked over the proof
of the little magazine.
"Well , you see , " explained the edi
tor , "I placed it wrong. That was
why. After this I'm going to place
them all wrong. Then the printer
will place them just the opposite in
his little way'and they'll be right , you
l sere. "

Controlled Newspapers.
The Atchison Globe says that no ad-
rertiser has ever tried to control its ed I ,
itorial policy , the remark being occa-
( { ioned by the charge often made nowa-
days , that the big advertisers direct
he editorial policy of newspapers.
The experience of the Globe is the
experience of most newspapers. The
merchant who does a great deal of ad-
vertising is more interested in the cir
culation department of a newspaper
than in4 the editorial department. If a
daily paper goes to the homes of the
people , and is read by them , he is satis-
fied , and It may chase after any theory
or fad , for all he cares. He has troubles
of his own , and he Isn't trying to shoul-
der those of the editorial brethren.
There are newspapers controlled by
people outside of the editorial rooms ,
and a good many of them , more's the
pity ; but the people exercising that
control are not the business men who
pay their money for advertising space.
The newspapers which are established
for political purposes are often con-
trolled by chronic officeseekers , whose
first concern is their own interests.
I
There are newspapers controlled by
great corporations , and the voice of I
such newspapers is always raised In
protest against any genuine reform.
The average western newspaper usu-
ally is controlled by its owner , and he
is [ supposed to be in duty bound to make
all sorts of sacrifices at all sorts of
times ; there are people who consider
it his duty to Insult his advertisers ,
just to show that he is free and inde
pendent. If he shows a decent respect
for his patrons , who pay him their
money , and make it possible for him to
carry on the business , he is "subsi
dized" or "controlled. " The newspaper
owner is a business man , like the dry
' I
goods man or the grocer. The mer-
chants are expected to have considera
tion for their customers , and they are
not supposed to be subsidized by the
man who spends five dollars with
them , but the publisher is expected to
demonstrate his courage by showing i ,
that he is ungrateful for the patron- i I i
age of his friends. It is a funny com I
bination when you think it over. - ( I
Emporia Gazette.
Foxy Hiram.
"Well , now , if that ain't surprising ! "
ejaculated Mrs. Ryetop , as she shaded
her eyes with her hand. "There goes
old Hiram Skinflint , and rather than
step on a poor black ant he picked it
up , and I bet he is going to drop it
somewhere out of the reach of dan-
ger. "
Her husband laughed knowingly.
"Not Hiram Skinflint , Mandy. He'll
go down to Weatherby's general
store and order a pound of granulated
sugar. Then while Jed is looking an-
other way he'll drop the ant among
the grains and tell Jed as long as his
.sugar . has ants in it he ought to sell it
at half price. Like as not he'll try to
'get ' Jed to throw in two or three
raisins and a yeast cake. You don't

Theodore Roosevelt and Party In White Steamer. ) .
I After fifteen months' absence , exact-
ly as scheduled , Colonel Theodore
i Roosevelt disembarked from the Kai-
serin Auguste Victoria , Saturday morn-
| I ing , June 18 , at 11 a. m. To the keen
disappointment of a large group of
newspaper correspondents , Mr. Roose-
velt absolutely refused , as heretofore ,
to be interviewed or to talk on politi-
cal subjects , but his rapid fire of ques-
tions showed the same virile Interest
in public affairs as before.
If the welcome tendered by the
yast throng may be considered a
criterion upon which to base a "re
turn from Elba , " surely there was no
discordant note in the immense recep-
tion-parade , nor in the wildly clamor-
ous crowd which cheered at every
glimpse and hung on his very word.
The Incidents of the day In New
York were many , but perhaps none
better Illustrated the nervous energy
and vitality of the man , the near-mania
to be up-and-dolng , which he has i .
brought back to us , than the discard-
ing of horses and carriages for the
swifter and more reliable automobiles.
The moment the Roosevelt family and
Immediate party landed , they wensfr
whisked away in White Steamers to * ,
the home of Mrs. Douglas Robinson att (
433 Fifth avenue. A little later , when )
the procession reached the corner o # ) .
Fifty-ninth street and Fifth avenuejc
Colonel Roosevelt again showed hlsjr
preference for the motor car in gea- ' _
eral and the White cars in particular ,
when he , Cornelius Vanderbilt and Col- . :
lector Loeb transferred from their car-T
riage to White Steamers , which were ? '
in waiting for them. r
After luncheon at Mr. Robinson's }
house , the entire party , including- l
Colonel Roosevelt , again entered \Vhitet
cars and were driven to Long Island
City , where they were to take a spe i
cial train to the ex-President's homei :
at Oyster Bay.
J
The supremacy of the White cars "
with the Roosevelt party was agalnt
demonstrated on Sunday , when the =
party was driven to church in the
White Steamers , and a group of some
forty prominent Rough Riders were
taken in a White Gasoline Truck to a
clambake at the Travers island club * * . ,
