a UNBEARABLE ITCHING Feit It Would Be a Relief to Tear Skin From Back. Cured by CUTICURA. I had a breaking out all over my back. ‘The itching was almost unbearable, and at times [ felt that it would be a relief tw tear the skin off my back. I tried doctors’ pre- scriptions, and several remedies, without even relief. I read of sour CUTICURA reme- dies in the Indianapolis News. After three applications, my back quit itching, and by the time the box of CUTICURA Ointment was half used the breaking out had all disappeared. J. B. THOMAS, 2510 Cornell Ave., Indianapolis, Ind.

Mr. Weeden hase been rather unfortunate lately. In December his house was burned and the first of January, while rebuilding his house, about $500 worth of his lumber, which was stored in a ware- house was also burned, and now he has both legs in plaster paris as a result of his fall—Nevada Mail. And it came to pass after he had advertised his goods there came unto him great multitudes of people form all the region about and did buy of him. And when his competitors saw it they marveled among themselves saying: “How be it that this man is busy when weloaf about our doors?,, And he spoke unto them saying: “Verily, verily I say unto you, in this fast age of push and rustle it iseasier or a camel toenter the eye ofa needle {than a business man to flourish with out advertising.” “Yes,” said the old man, addressing his visitor: lam proud of my girls and should like to see them comfort- ably married, and as I've a little money, they won't go to their hus- bands" eles re’'s Mary, 25 years old and_a real good girl.

I like the country here pretty well and have not been sick a day yet, although there is considerable sick- ness among the soldiers, but not as bad as reported. The country around Manila is low and level and rice is the principal crop. They raise hemp and some corn and lots of fruit; bananas, or- anges and cocoanuts and other kinds of fruit, and monkeys, parrots and “niggers” ‘till youcan’trest. [think the war is about ended. They are pushing Aggie further into the moun- tains every day. The native soldiers are tired of the war as they have never wona victory yet, but the leaders are trying to hold out as long as they can, but I don’t think it will be much longer. [think after it is settled there will be a big rush of business of all kinds. At present, business is pretty dull but everybody looks for a big boom soon in everything. Manila is a great deal better town than Lexpected to find; has about 300,000 population and some nice buildings and streets. I think a man with a little energy and capital could do well here pretty soon. Labor is cheap here on account of so many Chinese and natives. There are a great many Americans in business here and more are com- ing every day. Those who are in business are doing well. There are quite a few Spaniards and English here also. Outside of the army there are not many doctors here, only a few Spanish, Americans and natives. The natives are a much smarter people than I expected to find, but most of the business is run by white men and Chinese. Manila has electric lights and street cars and they are going to build a custom house here that will cost three or four million dollars. I have been right in Manila all the time, ex- cept about three weeks, was on the firing line. We are doing patrol and police duty and guarding Bilibid prison. We have good quarters and get plenty to eat, we also get plenty of duty too. ‘ You wanted to know if I was going to stay here when mustered out. If I was discharged ‘now I would stay, but [have along time yet to serve and I think my regiment will be in the states in six months. It will be the first to leave as it was the first on the island. I think they will be sending some of us home soon as I do not think the war will last much longer. There are a good many discharged soldiers here and some of them are doing well. Regards to all, your friend, J. W. Warxwricut, Co. A, 14th U.S. Infantry. It is estimated the tribute levied on the farmers of Kansas by the twine trust will reach the enormous sum of half a million of dollars. This $500,000 goes to the combine that is controlling prices.

White, a prominent and widely known citizen of Lafayette county, committed suicide at his home in Dover, twelve miles east of here, yes- terday. The deed was done witha double barreled shotgun, the charge , 0° shot passing through his heart. About eight monthsago White was | bitten by a hog. Blood poison set in and the health of Mr. White began failing. He sank into a state of mel- ancholia, and it is this caused him to take his life. Ed F. White was ason of William C. White of Dover. He was 45 years old and leaves a wife and three sons. The deceased was a brother of Mrs. George W. Johnson, who lives near thiscity. His wife was Miss Ella Gordan, daughter of Mrs. L. B.

After a fire has gained wild control over a structure it is doomed to certain destruction; modern fire- | proof buildings are destroyed, steel and iron beams and joists melt and twist and warp and break under the heat; bricks, cement, stone, granite and marble crumble and disintegrate nothing can stop the flames and heat after the fire has gained headway and ; is beyond control, as is evidenced | every day. All this can be avoided by render- ing the woodwork and other inflam- mable material used on the inside of our modern marvels of architecture , in course of erection in the large cities | fireproofed with Ruchter’s process. However, to a large majority of the public—the owners of country homes and buildings who, either from in-} convenience or expense connected | with building fire-proof structures, have uo means of securing immunity from fire, the use of Ruchter’s Fire- Proof Paint will indeed be a boon. It renders wood coated with it fire-; resisting, preventing the spread of flames, sparks and debris falling on surfaces coated with it have no effect the wood only carbonizing when com- | ing in contact with heat, and the in-! cipient spark, the vanguard of i destruction, that would quickly gain | control of a structure, is rendered harmless. Ruchter’s Paint is no more expen- , sive than any other good quality of | paint, and we cannot emphasize the fact too strongly that its durability is greater than any paint made, ow- ing to the pure pigments, as well as being absolutely a pure linseed oil paint, as explained further along. The material in the paint remains | inert until it comes in contact with intense heat, causing same to fuse, forming carbonic acid gas, that suc- cessfully resists fire. thiscan be easily demonstrated by placing a little of the paint taken from one of the pack- | ages, in a flame and noting the result; carbonic acid gas immediately forms, fighting the flameseven in the paint’s wet state with the oil in it. Ruchter’s Paint is not a “ready mixed,” or “prepared paint,” or “liquid paint,” and must not be classed among these misnomers, the large..majority of which have no value as painting material, and are a mixture of alkali water, benzine or cheap oils. Ruchter’s Paint is to be used in the same manner as pure white lead; it is made in paste form, the same as white lead and painter's colors, and the user must make his own paint with same, thinning the paint with pure linseed oil to the proper consistency for painting, using equal parts of linseed oil to equal parts of the paint. This gives the user the advantage of knowing pos- itively that he is getting a pure paint and in purchasing his own linseed oil and seeing to it that he gets it pure, | and mixing it with Ruchter’s Paint! he knows for a surety that he is get-| ting what he pays for and does not! have to take anyone's word or label for it. as is the case in purchasing a “ready mixed” paint. Pure linseed oil is the very life iteelt! of paint; it is essential to a durable | job of painting as the foundation of } a building is to the superstructure; | eliminate the linseed oil from paint and the pigment remains nothing but a dry powder, to be blown and worn off by the elements. ' ' | In using Ruchter’s Paint, the con- sumeris already assured of a durable paint, as well as a protection against fire: it dryes hard and glossy, and as ‘ _condition the surface is in: if it is old ‘smooth surface, and for tin or ; be found to be a preventive against jand killed or reputation. One gallon of Ruchter’s Paints and one gallon of linseed oil will make two gallons of paint, each which of wi}/ cover 250 to 300 square teet of surface two according to in average condition coats; this will vary the weather-beaten lumber or shingle roof, or a rough surface, it will take up more paint than new work or iron it will spread over 25 per cent. more surface than these figures, and in this connection Ruckter’s Paint will rust on any kind of metal We are the sole agents in Butler for this wonderful paint and invite you to call and learn more about it. ‘at the ‘Butler Cash Department Store.
