The petition further suggests that if congress does not wish to pay the bounty, it should, in justice to the farmer, reduce duties on manufac tured goods to one half the present rate. It also suggests that if even the bounty is paid the duty on man- ufactured goods should be reduced to 40 per cent. Atthe end of two years the bounty on wheat could be reduced to 15 cents a bushel and the average duty on manufactured goods to 30 per cent of the present rate. Two years after that the bounty could be made 10 cents a bushel and the duty 20 cents, the bounty on wheat always to remain at one-half of the average duty on manufactur- ied goods. | This petition is extremely signifi- |cant and indicates how the princi- ples of tariff reform are growing in popularity in Mr. Outhwaite’s dis- trict, in which, by the way, Colum- bus is located.

It ran into yay eyes, and the physician was afraid I would lose my eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head, and my hair all fell out, until I was en- tirely bald-headed; it then broke out on my arms and shoulders, until my arms were just onesore. It covered my entire body, my face, head, and shoulders being the worst. The white scabs fell constantly from my head, shoulders and arms; the skin would thicken and be very red and itchy, and would crack and bleed if scratched. ‘After spending many hundreds of dollars, I was pronounced incura- ble. Iheard of the Cuticura Remedies, and after using two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, Icould see a change; and after I had taken four bottles, I was almost cured; and when I had used six bottles of Cuticura Resolvent and one box of Cuticura, and one cake of Cuticura soap, I was cured of that dreadful disease fro which I had suffered for five years. I though the disease would leave a very deep scar, but the Cuticura Remedies cured it without any scars. I cannot express witha pen what I suf- fered before using the Cuticura Remedies They saved my life, andI felt it my duty to recommend them. My hair is restored as good as ever, and so is my eyesight.
