A SPEEDY AND
PERMANENT CURE
We express to you herewith our best
i!"1" for the cure of our baby from
fjriema. The eriemt appeared whea
the child was three mouths old. We
applied to several doctors and hospitals,
each of which gave us something differ
ent every time, but nothing brought re
lief. A physician recommended a salve
which we threw into the fire after two
days' use as the eczema became worse
so that the baby scratched his face. At
lust, one of our friends recommended to
ua Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint
ment. A few days afterwards improve
ment could be noted. ince then we
bare used nothing but Cuticura Soap
end Cuticura Ointment, and now the
baby is six months old and is ouiteeured.
All that we used was one cake of Cuti
. cure Soap and two boxes Cuticura Oint
ment, costing in all $1 25. Even the
Poorest man ran pay that instead of
throwing it into the doctor's Up. I
myself only make twelve dollars a week
as a teamster, but I recommend the
Cuticura Remedies strongly to all moth
ers whose children suffer from such dis--easee.
They are cheap, harmless and
food. C. i . Kara and Wife, 343 Last

Notwithstanding many Lincoln eating
hquses Increased the price of edibles, the
general opinion of the visitors Is that the
fair was a magnificent success. The visit
ors looked -more prosperous than hereto
fore and the premium winners scored
higher points. Financially the fair is al
most up to the record of former years,
though the attendance was smaller. The
absence of huge blocks of complimentary
tickets was marked and may have had
considerable to do with the attendance
figures, though the paid admissions ran
only a short way behind those of last year.

tate dealer Is crying that Omaha needn
more houses to rent at from $12 to $15.
Bless your soul. It has got plenty. Th-(
trouble Is with the landlords. They want
from $20 to $S0 for them. Just "house
hunt" for a day and you will be sur
prised at the monumental gall of agent
and owners. Places that are not fit for
a dog to live In are almost prohibitive
In price. Lots of people are looking for
houses because their rent has been
raised on acount of a few necessary re
pairs having been made. If a house Is
painted and put In tenantable shape, up
goes the rent. A place to live In Is .i
necessity, and It Is extortion of the worst
kind to take Advantage of a man when
he cannot help hlmaelf, as many are do
ing In Omaha today. We believe In
property rights and all that, but we can
not convince ourselves they have the right
to charge more for a place than it is
worth, thereby getting usurious Interest
on an Investment, any more than the rail
roads have to charge high fares or th--

day the people will wake up and assess

would be fair. They put the asaessor to

on the amount the investment would fig
ure, minus necessary repairs and taxes,
with the rent as Intereat at 8 per cent,
we give a rough guess that Omaha and

after the grafters are weeded out.

NiCOLL QUALITY
MOST MEN, when they order gw
ments, think fin of price, then
style and fit, and they leave quality to
the last, or don't consider It seriously
at all.
It isn't the best way to buy clothes
or anything else for that matter. But,
candidly, Un't that about tho way
tnott men buy clothes?
The truth is, there never was a time
when the quality of the material In
your garments was so Important as It
is today. In a peculiar sense It In
volves and includes all the other points
style, fit, tailoring, price.
The best of the fall designs are here
in a variety enough to satisfy tho
most exacting.
