How to Stop
Pimplos
' In , Five Days Von Can Get lUd of
All Sain Eruptions by the New
Calcium Sulphide Wafers.
Trial reokag To Prove It Beat FreaL
Any man or woman gets awfully tired
" going arotind with a pimply face day after
day; and other people get awfully tired,
too, seeing them go around with faces full
' Of disgusting pimples.
It you are one of the unfortunates who
can't get away from your pimples and you
... have tried almost everything under heaven
: te get rid of them, take a few of Stuart's
. Calcium Wafers every day. Do that stead-
lly for a few days and in less than a week
leok at yourself in the mirror.
i.i You will then say that Stuart's Calcium
, Wafers are a wonder In getting rid of skin
t eruptions.
,!! These wonderful little workers contain
.the most, effective blood purifier ever dis
covered, calcium sulphide,
i.v No matter what oyr trouble Is, whether
. pimples, blotches, blackheads, rash, tetter,
. ecsema or scabby crusts, you can solemnly
i depend upon Stuart's Calcium Wafers as
never falling.
"-.Stuart's Calcium Wafers have cured bolls
' In three days and the worst cases of skin
diseases In a week. Every particle of lm-
purity Is driven out of your system com-
pletely, never to return, and it is done with
out deranging your system In the slightest
j,. Most treatments for the blood and for
akin eruptions are miserably slow In their
results, and besides many of them are
poisonous. Stuart's Calcium Wafers con
tain no poison or drug of any kind; they
are absolutely harmless and yet do work
which cannot fall to surprise you.
Don't go around with a humiliating, dls-
' gustlng mass of pimples and blackheads
on your face. A face covered over with
these disgusting things makes people turn
sway from you and breeds failure In your
'. life work. Stop It. Read what an Iowa
man said when he woke up one morning
' and found he had a new face:
"By George, I never saw anything like
It. There I've been for three years trying
to get rid of pimples and blackheads and
guess I used everything under the sun. J
used your Calcium Wafers for just seven
' days. This morning every blessed pimple Is
' gone and I can't find a blackhead. I could
write you a volume of thanks. I are so
' grateful to you."
' Just send us your name and addree In
full today and we will send you a trial
' package of Stuart's Calcium Wafers free
to test. After you have tried the sample
and been convinced that all we say ta true
'you will go to your nearest druggist and
' get a Wo bos and be cured of your facial
' trouble. They are In tablet form and no
x trouble whatever to take. You go about
' your work as usual and there you are
' cured and happy.
' Bend us your name and address today and
;we will at one send you by mall a sample
'package free. Address F. A. Stuart Co.,

DEATH OF FATHER CURRAN
Matbematica Instrnctor at Crelghton
I'nlverslty Expires at St.
Joseph's Hospital.
Rev. James J. Curran, for the last two
years Instructor In higher mathematics at
Crelghton university and in charge of St.
John's parochial school, died st 8:30 last
night at 8ti Joseph's hospital of Brlght'a
disease, from which he had been a sufferer
for a number of years. Coming to Omaha
in the hopes the change would benefit his
health, he was assigned to duty at the uni
versity. A short time ago his condition
became alarming and he was forced to give
up his duties and go to the hospital. For
several days his condition had been con
sidered hopeless.
He was born In Chicago In 1859, and be
gan his studies In the Josult college there
In 1872. Father O'Connor, vice president of
Crelghton university, was a classmate of
his. Father Curran finished the course
very creditably In 1877, with the degree of
A. B. In August of the same year he en
tered the Society of Jesus. Since then he
has followed the regular order of work.
having two years of normal work In Flor-
isant. Mo., a seven years' university course
In Woodstock, Md. He then taught for
eight years, chiefly the natural sciences
and higher mathematics. In Chicago, De
troit, Cincinnati and St. Mary's, Kan. He
had charge of the parish school of the Holy
Family parish In Chicago for ten years.
and was very successful, the attendance
going as high as 2,500. There his health
broke down four years ago. He rested for
some months and then came to Omaha,
hoping the change of climate would do him
good. For the last two years he taught
higher mathematics at the university, and
only relinquished his duties when he was
taken to St. Joseph's hospital. His brother.
Thomas Curran, a young business man of
Chicago, came to the city when It was
known that Father Curran's case was hope
less.

IMPROVING LOOKS OF FOOT
Accomplished by Raisins; Arch by
Means of Pads la the
Shoe.
There ls no more attractive line of the
foot than a high instep. It matters not
how small a foot may be. If It looks flat
It Is sure to be ugly. There Is no exercise
that will have any material effect In en
larging the instep, for It ls entirely
question of the build of the arch of the
foot. However, no matter how flat a girl's
foot may be, If It ls Incased In a high
heeled slipper the effect wlU be fairly good,
but In a high boot the conditions are quite
different.
For these unfortunates It Is a suggestion
that they should pad their instep by sew
ing a little cotton wadding on the tongue
of the laced boot, thus making an arti
ficial arch. It ls a curious thing that no
matter how large the foot may be, if It Is
arched In the proper way It will look about
four slses smaller; therefore, surely the
girl who pads her tntep or uses artificial
means for gaining the effect of a good
arch has a good excuse. The girl who uses
this method should be really very careful
that her foot has not already a pretty
arch, for It she should add padding to
the natural Instep the result will closely
resemble a, deformity.
The artificial pad is made of three layers
of cotton batting about three Inches long
and two Inches wide. This la Inclosed In
a bag of muslin and sewn on the tongue
of the shoe Just above the vamp. If this
should prove too thick, It could be re
duced to one or two layers of batting.
When wearing a pad see that It is renewed
often, so that it will not get flat, for with
a flat Instep one day and a large arch the
next one might cause comment among
one's friends.

Prof. Holden Also Preaches uospei ox
Good Seed and What it Means
" to the GrVatest Industry
of America.
Making the startling statement that the
value eaoh year or tne corn crop m
United States ls twice that of cotton and
eoual to the combined value of the wheat.
oats, barley and rye crops and of the total
value of live stock, including horses, cat
tle. sheeD and mules, E. D. Funk or
Bloomlnston. III., president of the National
Corn association, impressed forcibly on his
hearers at a meeting In the Board of Trade
rooms Friday evening that corn is indeed
king. He talked enthusiastically and en
thused his hearers with the gospel n
preaches, and Omaha's national corn ex
position was given a grand boost.
'The greatest part of our wealtn lies in
the soil and the great study of today is to
get the wealth out of the soil and retain
the fertility and save It for future genera
tions," said Mr. Funk.
"The soil is our bank account, If we draw
out our account. If we draw out the fertil
ity, and don't put It back we will soon De
bankrupt. It coBts $12 in fertility to pro

Prof. P. O. Holden of the Ames (Is.)
Agricultural college also addressed the
meeting, explaining In detail the reasons
for testing seed corn and th methods
of doing so. He advised tho harvesting
of the seed corn the last week of Sep
tember or the f'?st week of October.
The sound, full ears should be hung up
in a dry, airy garret and then during
the fore part of March sort out the very
best ears and extract kernels from vari
ous sections of the ears, planting them
In a germinating box, marking th Vox
(off Into squares and numbering the
squares to correspond with the ears from
which the kernels are taken. After eight
days it can be seen what ears are fertllo
and what barren. Thus In a week's time
the farmer has saved the labor of a year
by satisfying himself before seed time
whether his corn will grow or not
"The greatest cause for poor corn ls a
poor stand of corn, and til greatest
cause for a poor stand of corn Is poor
seed," asserted Prof. Holden, "and If I
owned all the farms In Nebraska I would
Issue these four orders first thing: Test
every ear of seed corn, grade every ear,

for the making of good corn, but good
men are of as vital a necesrlty."
John L. Ksnnedy presided at the meet
ing and In Introducing the speakers put
In a few hard knocks for the popular
corn and the horny-handed farmer who
raises it, declaring that the time had
passed when everyone had contempt for
the farmer "with hayseed In his hair1

One cold, wintry morning a man of tall
and angular build was walking down a
steep hill at a quick pace.
A piece of Ice under the snow caused him
to lose control of his feet; be began to
slide and was unable to stop. At a cross
ing half way down he encountered a large,
heavy woman. The meeting was sudden,
and before either realised it a collision
ensued and both were sliding down hill, th
thin man underneath, the fat women On
top.
When the bottom was reached and the
woman was trying to recover her breath
and her feet, these faint words were borne
to her ear: "Pardon me. madam, but you
will have to get off here. This ls as far
