BERGE IS BOUND TO RUN FOR GOVERNOR Leasers of Democratic Party Desire to sidetrack Him, bat tha Llneoln ' Man Is Not laclloed to Be sidetracked. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, April 20. tSpeclal.) The Slate Normal board Is In session at Peru today and It will have before It the propo sition to accept or reject tha new library building Just completed. It Is understood the architect, George Berllnghof. will recommend the building be accepted. The board has had a hard time getting this work completed and the last few months Its construction has practically been under tha supervision of Superintendent Crab tree, who has ordered much of the material and who has generally been In charge. The contractor, Joseph Sparks, of St. Joseph, has been busy with other matters, and, according to the reports received In Lincoln, has paid little attention to the Peru building. It Is said he has lost con siderable money on the contract because of his other business matters which en grossed his time.

Crabtree said the men employed by Sparks were reliable, or otherwise Sparks would have lost considerable more money on tha con tract. Heddii Moat Serve Time. W. 8.

The sheriff had selected sixty talesmen who were In the court room when the case was called. Only two of the regular panel were left and the Judge ordered a new pnnel, which the sheriff selected from among the spectators In the room, these being the men notified to be present by the sheriff. .

The ran PSORIASIS 35JP Terrible Scaly Humor In Patchei All Over the Body Skin Cracked and Bleeding Itching Unbear ableCured by Cuticura in Thirty Days at Cost of $4.75. ANOTHER WONDERFUL CURE BY CUTICURA "I was afflicted with psoriasis for thirty-five years. It was In patches all over say body. I use a inree cages of Soap, six boxes Cuticura Oint ment, and two bottles of Cuti cura Resolvent. I bathed with tha Soap, applied the Ointment once a day, and took the ' Keeolvent as di rected. In thirty days I was completely cured, and I think permanently, as it was about five years ago. "The psoriasis first made 1U appear ance in red spots, generally forming a circle, leaving in the center aspot about the size of a silver dollar of sound flesh. In a short time the affected circle would form a heavy dry scale of a white silvery appearance and would gradually drop1 off. To remove the enure wales by bathing or using oil to soften them the flesh would be perfectly raw, and a light discharge of bloody substance would ooie out. That scaly crust would form again in, twenty-four hours. It was worse on my arms and limbs, al though it was in spots all over my body, also on my scalp. If I let the ecalea remain too long without remov ing by bath or otherwise, the akin would crack and bleed. I suffered intense itching, worse at Bights after getting warm in bed, or blood warm by exercise, when it would be almost unbearable. "To sum it all up, I would not go through such another ordeal of affliction for thirty-five years for the State of Kansas, (signed) W. M. Chideater, Hutchinson, Kan., April 20, 1006."
