PRESCRIBED CUTICURA After Other Treatment Failed—Raw Eczema on Baby’s Face Had Lasted Three Months—At Last Doctor Found Cure. “Our baby boy broke out with ec- zema on his face when one month old. One place on the side of his face the size of a nickel was raw like beefsteak, for three months, and he would cry out when I bathed the parts that were sore and broken out. I gave him three months’ treatment from a good doctor, but at the end of that time the child was no better. Then my doctor recommended Cuticura. After using a cake of Cuticura Soap, a third of a box of Cuticura Ointment, and half a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent he was well and his face was as smooth as any baby’s. He is now two years and a half old and no eczema has reappeared. Mrs. M. L.

Anything in the nature of a chem- ical experiment is always interesting and usually educative. Here is asim- ple experiment which any child can perform and which is instructive in # very practical way: Get a bit of White Lead about the size of a pea, a piece of charcoal, a common candle in a candlestick, and a blow-pipe. Scoop out.a little hollow in the charcoal to hold the White Lead, then light the candle, take the charcoal and lead in one hand and the blow-pipe in the other, with the large end of the blow- pipe between the lips; blow the flame of the candle steadily against the bit of White Lead on the charcoal and if the White Lead is pure it will pres- ently resolve itself into little shining globules of metallic lead, under the intense heat of the blow-pipe, leaving no residue. If, however, the White Lead is adul- terated in the slightest degree, it will not wholly change into lead. So, it will be seen, that this experiment is not only an entertaining chemical demonstration, but also of practical use in the home. White Lead is the Iaost important ingredient of paint. It should be bought pure and unadul- terated and mixed with pure linseed oil. That is the best paint. The above easy experiment enables any- cne to know whether the paint is the kind which will wear or not. é The National Lead Company guar- antee that white lead taken from a package bearing their “Dutch Boy Painter” trade-mark will prove abso- lutely pure under the blow-pipe test; and to encourage people to make the test and prove the purity of paint be- fore using it, they will send free a blow-pipe and a valuable booklet on paint to anyone writing them asking for Test Equipment.

He had sighted his gun at a flying covey of birds when a bullet from some other hunter's weapon struck his arm. The shock caused him to pull the trigger and felled him to the ground. Three dead birds dropped at his feet. The scene of this accident was Mont- clair, The time was last Saturday. A frabbit dashed down Greenwood-avenue, raced to the Lackawanna station and jumped on the last car of a passenger train that was just pulling out.. The yellow dog which had béen after the rabbit followed the train, barking loudly. John Edwards, in charge of the baggage car, came out on the plat- form and the rabbit had to jump off. That was at Pine street. The dog chased the rabbit along Pine street into Bloomfield avenue. Bunny ran along by the side of an east-bound Newark and Caldwell trolley car until the dog was nearly upon him. The he ran around in front of the car. He got around the end safely, but the dog was thrown twenty feet—dead. Charlie Sanderson and Willie Smith, Montclair boys, while out in the woods near Great Notch last Friday, came across a hawk which had been wounded by hunter. They tried to kill the bird with sticks and the hawk fought back at them. It tore part o. the clothing from both boys, clawed a big “C” on Willie’s chest, and put a double cross on Charlie’s shoulder. But they killed the bird. Jersey is- filled with hunters. Isaac Hodge, who lives at Belleville and used to hunt deer near his home, has gone to foreign grounds this year, because, he says, there are twenty gunners to every rabbit within twenty miles of his old hunting spots. The baggagemen on the Greenwood Lake branch of the Erie railroad are preparing an appeal to the manage- ment to appoint a dog warden for each baggage car during thesstate game season. They say that often there are twenty dogs in one car. While their owners are back playing poker the dogs are fighting like old Billy, thus robbing the baggageman of his claim to godliness and bringing gray hairs to his young head. Besides that, the owners berate him and talk about suing the railroad because their dogs do not come out of the baggage car whole. Game Warden Raub of Washington and most of the farmers in his terri- tory are keeping a sharp lookout for thirteen Brooklyn sportsmen who vis- ited that section last year. They all say that these sportsmen may be known by their elaborate hunting cos- tumes. According to the farmers, they wouldn't know a quail from an Austra- lian emu. The farmers’ wives declare that last year they mistook for quail many a faithful old dominick hen that could be trusted for one egg a day in the Christmas season. There is also some _ political financial worry in New Jersey. and PROFESSIONAL MASCOTS. All gamblers are superstitious, but the most superstitious of all, undoubt- edly, are those who tempt the goddess of chance around the tables of the ca- sino at Monte’ Carlo. Your ordinary gambler is satisfied with a rabbit foot—left hind one pro- cured in a cemetery near the hour of midnight—or some other little thing which has been in his possession at a time when luck ran in his favor, But over at Monte Carlo the gamblers think hunchbacks are the best possible mas- cots, and as the resjit a very large number of persons so afflicted manage to earn a living by catering to this su- perstition. Outside the doors of the casino one will always find a small army of mien and women with deformed backs wait- ing to be hired as mascots. Some of them are regularly retained by certain patrons. While this patron is gambling they stand by his or her side and every once ina while the gambler turns around and touches the hunchback’s deformity. This it is that is supposed to bring luck. Some of the supposed hunchbacks are bogus. The deformity is manu- factured simply to get the fraud a good paying job. Frequently these de- ceptions are brought to light, but when such a discovery is made it is. safe to say that the fraudulent hunchback never appears on the scene again.— Philadelphia Press. epee Seg ee Wanted to Know. , It was at a symphony orchestra con- cert conducted by Walter Damrosch. The audience was anticipating an ex- quisite rendition of choice selections from some famous composers, con- spicuous among whom was Richard Wagner, the opening number in this instance being one of his compositions. As was usual the leading performers of the orchestra, as they appeared upon the platform, were met with enthusi- astic applause, the climax being reach- ed with the appearance of Mr. Dam- rosch himself. “When the excitement had somewhat subsided and the concert was about to begin. a well-dressed woman, seated turned to the woman beside her, and said in.an audi- ble voice: “Pardon me, but would you kindly tell me which one is Wagner Not There. “Please, mum,” began the aged hero in appealing tone, as he stood at the kitchen door on wash-day, “I've lost my leg—" 4 “Well, I ain't got it,” snapped the woman, slamming the door.—Illus- trated Bits.

ANOTHER FARMER~ REALIZES $22.50 PER ACRE FROM HIS WHEAT CROP LAST YEAR. Charles McCormick of Manitoba, writes: “During the season of 1907, I had 100 acres in crop on the S. W. quarter of section 18, township 35, range 27 west of the Principal Meridian, Wes- ‘tern Canada, yielded as follows: “80 acres at 22 bushels per acre, which I sold for 90 cents per bushel; and 20 acres oats yielding 60 bushels per acre I sold for 35 cents per bushel so that my total crop realized $2,004.- 00. From this I deducted for expenses of threshing, hired help, ete., $400.00, Kenville, leaving me a net profit on this year’s crop ot over $1,600.” Thomas Sawatzky of Herbert, Sas- katchewan, says: “The value of my crop per acre of wheat is $22.50. I threshed 1,750 bushels of wheat from 70 acres, and was offered 90 cents a bushel for it. Oats, 15 acres, 500 bushels; and barley, 5 acres, 80 bushels. I do not know if I have been doing the best in this district, but I know if all the farmers were doing as well, Western Canada would have no kick coming as far as grain growing is concerned; and I further say that. if you want to put this in one of your ad- vertisements, this is true and I can put my name to it.” Heavenly treasures are only saved for ourselves as we share them.
