FEARFUL BURNING SORES. _ Boy in Misery 12 Years—Eczema In Rough Scales, Itching and In- flamed—Cured by Cuticura. | . “I wish to inform you that eur! wonderful Cuticura has put a stop to twelve years of misery I passed with my son. As an infant I noticed on his body a red spot and treated same with different remedies for about five years, but when the spot began to get larger I put him under the care of doctors. Under their treatment the disease spread to four different parts of his body. The longer the doctors treated him the worse it became. Dur- ing the day it would get rough and form like scales. At night it would be cracked, inflamed, and badly swol- | len, with terrible burning and itch- | ing. When I think of-his suffering, | it nearly breaks my heart. His | screams could be heard downstairs. | The suffering of my son made me. full of misery. I had no ambition to | work, to eat, nor could I sleep. One doctor told me that my son’s eczema was incurable, and gave it up | for a bad job. One evening Isaw an article in the paper about the wonder- , ful Cuticura and decided to give it a | trial. I tell you that Cuticura Ointment | is worth its weight in gold, and when I had used the first box of Ointment there was a great improvement, and | by the time I had used the second set | of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint- | ment, and Cuticura Resolvent, my | child was cured. He is now twelve | years old, and his skin is as fine | and smocth as silk. Michael Stein- | man, 7 Sumner Avenue, Brooklyn, N.

Mayer Boot & Shoe Co., Milwaukee, Wis. THE NEW MISS ROOSEVELT, Ethel Looking Forward to Her Debut in the White House. When the president arrived home from Panama the newspapers an- nounced that he was met by “Miss Roosevelt.” To old friends of the family this sounded strange, for with “the” Miss Roosevelt now Mrs. Long- worth, there was only one person who could be intended, and that was little Miss Ethel. “Little” Miss Ethel? That might have been true a couple of years ago, but those who have seen the president’s second daughter in the last few months would no longer think of applying the diminutive ad- jective to her. “How she has grown!” they are saying. For Miss Ethel is now really and truly Miss Roosevelt, and already there are signs that she will take the social position left vacant by the mar- riage of her elder sister. Miss Ethel now occupies the suite in the White House formerly occu- |pied by Miss Ailce, now Mrs. Long- worth. This apartment consists of bedroom, boudoir and bath, overlook- ing Pennsylvania avenue. It has been | charmingly done over in delicate blue and is fashioned in light maple. Mist Roosevelt chose the furnishings her- self in New York several months | ago. Chief among the larger pieces is a big bookcase made after Miss Roosevelt’s own ideas. Unlike her older sister, she is an omnivorous reader, and books are the boudoir’s chief adornment. The president's daugbter is now well past 16. She will be 18—the ordinary coming-out age for a debutante—in July, 1908, which would give her a season in the White House before her father’s retirement on March 4, 1909. But ‘she is growing up so fast now that Washington is indulging in the hope that there may be another young lady in the White house for the next sea- | son, 1907-1908. While her sister was still the young lady of the White House Miss Ethel was kept very much in the back- ground. She wore short skirts and kept her hair in pigtails. She went to the Cathedral school and was al- lowed to choose her friends entirely outside of social conventions. ANXIOUS TO HEAR WEBSTER. Admirer Travels to Washington and | Listens to a Single Speech. | | “An old man I knew when I was a | boy,” said Maj. McDowell, clerk of the house in Washington, “came to Washington when Webster was alive | to see and hear that great orator and | statesman. | “After he arrived here he could hardly wait for the senate to open its session. He had a seat in the old senate chamber, which is now the supreme court, and he feasted his ‘eyes on the Jove-like dome of Daniel and watched eagerly for him to get into action. “Finally Webster stood up. My friend leaned forward to drink in |every word. ‘Mr. President,’ Web- ster said, ‘I arise to present to this august body a petition from the mer- chant princes of Boston, whose clip- per ships, proud argosies of fortune, sail undaunted to every port on this round globe, carrying the flag of these United States and demonstrat- ing the prowess of the masterly minds in my state, great Massachusetts, in the fields of commerce. I present a petition that relates to a topic that is uppermost in the minds of our citizens, a topic of incaleulabe impor- tance to our people, a topic that tran- scends any other measure now or hereafter to be before this body—” “The old man was all excitement. | ‘Goodness!’ he said to himself, ‘that must be something wonderful. I’m the luckiest dog that ever came out of Pennsylvania. Got here just the right time to see Webster at his best.’ “TI refer, sir,’ continued Webster, after a dramatic pause; ‘I refer, sir, to the duty on hides.’ “And,” said Mr. McDowell, “after that anticlimax my old friend left the senate chamber and took the first conveyance for home.” Certainly Was Unsafe. The venerable Senator Pettus of Al- abama, 85 years old, called on the president and complained about the equipment of the post office in Selma, Ala., which is the town where both he and Senator Morgan live. The senator had complained often to the post office department that the equipment of the office at Selma is antiquated. He has not been able to do anything there, and he went to the White House to tell the pres- ident abgut it. “Why, Mr. President,” he said, “my box key fits four other boxes, and I thinks you ought to do something about it.” The president promised to attend to it.
