"In reply to your letter I writ you

after having my little girl treated Dy a

pleased with the almost instantaneous
relief afforded that we discarded the
physician's prescription and relied en

we had her completely well, and there
haa been no recurrence of the trouble.
"In July of this year a little boy in
our family poisone tniis hands and arms
with poison oak, , and in twenty-four
hours nis hands and arms were a mass
of torturing sore. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
anointed them with the Cuticura Oint
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura

lots of cause for feeling grateful for the

CONDITION OF WHEAT CROP
Experts Differ, bat J. E. Von Dorn
Ray Grata la Safe
Thoa Far.
Conflicting reports are going about the
various grain exchanges of the country as
to the condition of the wheat crop of Ne
braska and Kansas. Some are to the ef
fect that the recent cold snap Injured the
wheat, and others are directly to the con
trary. There Is also much talk of the dry
weather.
"There Is no change In the Nebraska
crop as yet." said J. E. Von Dorn, who
has an extensive correspondence with all
parts of the state. "It takes alternate
freezing and thawing to hurt the wheat,
and so far we have had no such weather.
There Is no snow covering on the ground,
however, and the crop is In dally danger
of thawing and freezing weather. The
ground is very dry, and although this has
not caused damage yet, we must have
moisture In a few weeks or we will have
no crop.
"In some section" of Kansas the wheat
has been hurt by thawing and freezing.
That state is In as dry a condition as Ne
braska." SAUNDERS HAS THE FLOOR

The time of the city Board of Equaliza
tion was taken up Wednesday morning by
the arguments of Attorney W. A. Saun
ders against reassessing a number of old
sewer districts In which taxes were
knocked out by the courts. Mr. Saunders'
chief plea was that some of the property
has changed hands since and the new pur
chasers obtained the sewers but had no
idea they would be called upon to foot
the bflls." In the absence of City Attorneys
Breen and Herdman who are attending the
supreme court at Lincoln no action was
taken and the board adjourned to meet
again Thursday morning at 1 o'clock.
The action Tuesday In overruling the
protest to the plan for the paving on

derson of the club will preside a toast-
master and toasts will be responded to as
follows: "The Republican West," Hon.
John IS. Swanger, secretary of state of Mis
souri, and "Lincoln and His Party," Hon.

Legislator Talk Politic.
Representatives Davis of Buffalo county
and Doran of Garfield county were In Lin
coln last night, the former on his way to
Omaha on business and the latter on his
way to Iowa to visit his brother, who is
a member of the Iowa legislature,
Mr. Davis said he was not one of the two
members of the legislature who returned
railroad passes for the good and sufficient
reason he had not received such courtesies
for the present year. The Vnlon Pncltlo,
said Mr. . Davis, did not send him passes
last year, even though he was a member of
the legislature. When the legislature ad
journed Mr. Davis was one of the members
who paid his own way home, though he
had a pass in his pocket. After the repub
lican state convention Mr. Davis returned
his annuals. He did this though he had not
ridden on any of them after the legislature
adjourned.
Representative Deles Denier of Cass
county whs here last night. "We are for
George Sheldon for whatever lie wants."
said the Cass county man. "whether It bo
governor, railroad commissioner or what
not. But the fact Is I don't believe he wants
anything. He is down on his Mississippi
plantation living easily and attending to
his own affairs and he don't care anything
about political honors. Sheldon Is a Ann
young man and worthy of anything the
people can give him."
Argument on Woodmen Case.
The point raised by H. C. Brome. attorney
for County Clerk Drexel of Douglas county.
that the state had no right to ask for a
mandamus to compel him to Include lh the
assessment of the Woodmen of the World
the amount of the reserve fund of that
order, but the proper procedure would be
an appeal from the action of the county
board, was argued before the supreme court
this afternoon. Deputy Attorney General
Thompson argued ' the appeal from the
county board was not the exclusive pro
cedure. Tho board, as an assessing board,
he said, had ceased to exist when the writ
of mandanfus was asked for, and further
he said it was the right of the authorities
to proceed by mandamus to compel the
county clerk to rectify any mistake made
against the property of any person after
the county board had adjourned and ceased
to exist as an assessing board.
Briefs In Charter Case.
The Omaha charter case, wherein John T.
Cathers seeks to prevent by Injunction the
consolidation of the offices of county and
city treasurers, has been submitted to the
supreme court on briefs. City Attorney
Breen and Assistant Attorney Herdman,
for the charter, and Carl Herring, repre
senting the school board, and Frank Ran
som, appearing for Cathers, were all here
today to argue the case, but as none of J
them were here yesterday when the docket
was called the Judges merely took the case
on briefs. As the three briefs of the out
side attorneys together make a pile a
large as the one died bv the city attorney
and his assistant all agreed to let the case
go without argument.

A QUESTION OF COST.
In any number of stores
you'll see various prepara
tions of cod liver oil at as
many different prices. You'll
wonder, perhaps, why Scott's
Emulsion costs more than
some other kind in as large
a bottle. Hearing only one
side of the question you may
be led into buying the - just
as good as. Scott's" at the
lower price. That's false
economy. Scott's Emulsion
costs more because its more
expensive to make. Every
ingredient is tested and guar
anteed of the purest quality.
No adulteration, no shaving
of quality. There's no econ
omy in bargain medicine. If
you can afford to experiment
with your health, substitutes
may satisfy you. We take It,
however, that you want a
pure preparation, a reliable
remedy and something that's
going to hdp you. That's
what you get in Scott's

Issued by the school district of Grand
Island, after a most exciting election held
In that city. The firm which bought the
bonds now claim the history of the Issu
ance is not correct and will refuse to take
them unless they are voted again at a
special election. The notice for the election
did not contain the location of the polling
places and the company holds this In
validates the bonds. Representative Ferrar,
with a committee from Grand Island, ap
peared before the auditor today to show
him the history of the bonds was correct
and legal, but the matter Is still under
advisement. The committee asserts inas
much a the bond election was held the
same day as the general election and the
county clerk had advertised the polling
places for that election it was not neces
sary for the school board to do this. Those
who favored the Issuance of the bonds fear
they would not carry at another election.
