Washington, February 4.—An im. | portant proviso of the Oklahoma bill | passed by the house Friday which | has so far eseaped general attention is one reciting that nothing in the act organizing the territory shall be construed to authorize any person | to enter upon or occupy any of the lands in the Cherokee outlet and Ok- lahoma proper, for settlement or otherwise, until after the Indian tribes and the commissioners provid ed for the bill have concluded an agreement to that effect. After the agreement has been madeit shall be laid before the president, who is authorized and required to issue his proclamation declaring such relin- quished lands open to settlement and fix the time from and after which such lands may be taken. It i provided that any persons who j may enter upon any part of the land ‘contrary to these provisions and pri- {or to the time fixed by the presi | dent’s proclamation shall not be per- mitted to make entry upon any land or lay any claim thereto in the terri- tory.

I would scratch every night until I was raw, then the next night the scales, being formed meanwhile, were scratched off again. In vain did I consult all the doctors in the country, but without aid. After giving up all hopes of recovery, I hap- pened to see an advertisement in the newspa- per about your Cuticura Remedies, and pur- chased them from my druggist, and obtained almost immediate relief. began to notice that the scaley eruptions gradually dropped off and disappeared one by one, and have been fally cured. ad the disease 18 months before I began taking the Cuticura remedies, and in four or five weeks was entirely cured My disease was eczema and psoriasis.
