HIS HANDS CRACKED OPEN "I am a man seventy years old. My hands were very sore and cracked open on the insides for over a year with large sores. They would crack open and bleed , itoh , burn and ache so that I could not sleep and could do but little work. They were so bad . that I could not dress myself in the morning. They would bleed and the , i blood dropped on the floor. I called on two doctors , but they did me no I good. I could get nothing to do any good till I got the Cutlcura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. About a year ago my daughter got a cake of Cut- cura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment and in one week from the time I began to use them my hands r were all healed up and they have not been a mite sore since. I would not ) be without the Cuticura Remedies. "They also cured a bad sore on the hand of one of my neighbor's children , and they think very highly of the Cuti cura Remedies. John W. Hasty , So.

"Charity stamps , " first used In Boston in 1862 for the soldiers' relief funds during the Civil war , were the original forerunners of the Red Cross Christmas seal , which will be used this year to bring happiness and cheer to millions. The' Delaware Anti-Tu- berculosis society in 1907 for the first time in America made use of a stamp for the purpose of getting revenue to fight consumption. In a hastily or- ganized campaign of only three weeks they realized $3,000. The next year , 1908 , the American Red Cross con- ducted the first national tuberculosis stamp campaign. From this sale $135- 000 was realized for the anti-tubercu losis movement. In 1909 , undar many I adverse conditions , $250,000 was rea- Uzed from these stamps. Thig year the slogan of the tuberculosis fighters and the Red Cross is "A Million for Turberculosls From Red Cross Seals In 1910. " Popularity of Thais. "Every other young actress is call Ing herself Thais , " said Henry E. Dix. ey at a dinner at Mauquin's. "Thais McGinnis , Thais Endicott , Thais Schmidt-the thing is universal. "Universal and ridiculous ; for they who have read Anatole France's story of 'Thais' know that she was a very naughty little girl , indeed. ' I am quite sure that no real reader of 'Thais' would ever , under any circumstances , consent to be called such a name. "It makes me think of a man who , taking his infant daughter to be bap tised , told the clergyman to call her Venus. " 'But I refuse to call bar Venus , ' said the clergyman , indignantly. 'Ve nus Is the name of a pagan goddess. : " 'Well , Iiow about your own girl , Diana ? ' said the man. " Like the Other Kind. It was In a "down east" village thav the young man met his sweetheart , a charming country beauty. When he returned to the city he sent her a jar of cold cream to keep her cheeks as fresh as the budding rose. On his next visit he asked her how she liked his little gift. "The taste was very nice , " she said , with a rather sickly smile , "but I think that I like the other kind of cream best , dear.-Lippincott's. DR.

State Superintendent Bishop has just Issued a certificate of perfect at- tendance to Catherine Mohr of Boone county , school district No. 60. The certificate Is awarded to her for hav- ing been neither absent nor.tardy . for five consecutive school years. Under a system adopted a number of years ago small certificates are : issued by the teachers in the grades to the pupils Who are neither absent nor tardy during a school month. When the pupil accumulates a given num ber of these , the county superinten dent issues a larger certificate for per fect attendance , and if the pupil ac cumulates certificates to show that he has been neither absent nor tardy for a period of five years the larger certificate is issued directly from the office of the stato superintendent Only a very limited numoer of theso ire issued eac'h ' year. , Need Not File Petitions. Candidates for the legislature who desire to get positions on the ticket by petition need not file petitions with the secretary of state. This is the ruling made by Secretary of State .Tunkin. He says the law plainly pro vides that where a candidate for either branch of the legislature de sires to go on a ballot by petition he shall file his petition with the county clerk. If the district in which he de sires to be A candidate comprises more than one county , the candidate shall file by petition with each county clerk in the district. Mr. Junkin fur. ther states that the law places no limit on the time of the filing by peti tion and that such candidates can file any time before the county clerks have placed the printing of the ballot in the hands of the printer. As long as the county clerk will receive fil ings by petition , such filings are legal. No political party name can be used Judge Dean Withdraws. . The democratic committee of the Sixth congressional district , having received the declination of J. R. Dean to run for congress on the democratic ticket , has notified the secretary of state that the committee held a meet- ing and nominated W. J. Taylor of Omaha to fill the vacancy. The com mittee's nomination is certified to by Chairman R. G. Moore and Secretary H. J. Shinn. On the face of the re turns , Judge Dean received the demo cratic nomination by a majority of five votes over Taylor but Taylor : re ceived the populist nomination. Tay lor asked for a recount and later the compromise was effected whereby Judge Dean withdrew. - - Organized Farmers' Congress. Forty-one Nebraskans who were del egates to the Farmers' National con gress met at the Commercial club and organized the Nebraska Farmers' con gress.

Taylor of Minden is to be hanged at the penitentiary on the af. ternoon of October 28. The supreme court overruled Taylor's : motion for a rehearing. This finally disposes of the case in court and nothing except the intervention or the governor or a near- ing to determine insanity , granted by a judge of the district in wnich the conviction took : place , can save Taylor from the gallows. It is said by attor , neys that neither relief . will be grant ed if asked for. The state board of purchase and supplies has been notified of an in crease ill the price of coffee. The board has been somewhat wedded to coffee that costs 15 cents a pound. The board has been buying 15-cent coffee for use in state institutions , the officers of such institutions being excepted from the use of such grade , but now it has been informed that at least 4 cents a pound more will be asked for this coffee by jobbers.
