MRT HOW TO MAKE CHEESE HOOP Old Peck Measure Without Bottom and With Holes Punched in Sides Is All Right. For a chese hoop, an old peck measure, without, a bottom and with holes punched in the side for drainage, Is all right. Any tin or wooden receptacle, however, may be used. The illustration shows how the curd may be pressed. Before placing the curd in the hoop, line in with cheese cloth, one piece the size of the bottom and another around the side. Turn the upper edge of the hoop and fasten it tight. Then pack the curd firmly in the hoop, and put a piece of cloth on the upper end and hold it over tight. Next, put a regular board on top that will closely fit in the hoop, then put a block of wood or stone on the board and on the block place a receptacle containing stones. Make the pressure slight at first, but after an hour rearrange the cloth and make the pressure heavier. The pressing should be Cheese Hoop. finshed by the next day. Do not press in too cool a place, but keep the temperature about 50 degrees. KEEPING TAB ON DAIRY COWS Simple Records Easily and Quickly Made by Which Every Farmer Knows Animal's Standing. (By MILLER PURVIS.) There are some things which have ;been said over and over so many itimes that I sometimes think it a waste of time to mention them again, !but as I am traveling about the country I see so many proofs which show 'tbat these things are not commonly i practiced that I feel as If those who j write for the farmer's benefit should try to emphasize old truths as well 'as expound new ones. We have been talking abort balanced rations so long that It would . seem as if every dairyman would feel the necessity of using a ration which : would produce the best results, yet I ! doubt if five per cent of the cows of the country are fed In the most ecoJnomlcal manner and I often find examples of the most costly kind of '.feeding, although the owners think ;they are feeding at the lowest cost. It should be remembered that lowcost feeding is not usually the cheapest feedifcp. In fact, the lower the cost of feeding a cow the lower the revenue from her. The economy of feeding a given ration Is not to be determined by the Initial cost of that 'ration, but by the result it produces. If by increasing the cost of the daily ration 50 per cent we can Increase the revenue any more than 50 .per cent all the increase above that ifigure 13 clear profit which cannot be charged with anything for labor or interest on investment because these items of cost are net increased by the better system of feeding. The only way to determine whether a cow pays a profit to her owner is to keep a record of her performance as a milker and to know what is costs to feed her. The cost of feeding may be very closely approximated without keeping an individual account, but to know to any degree of certainty what she returns to her owner the milk she produces must be weighed and tested. Without putting a cow to the rigid test of weighing her milk and determining Its quality, either by churning separately or putting samples through .the Babcock tester, no one can tell whether she Is a profitable animal to ikeep. I would be surprised to hear that lone In 100 owners of five or more cows in thi3 country could make any sort ol an intelligent test f her value as ja money maker. It would bo considered foolish for a merchant to buy a barrel of sugar without asking the cost of it and selling it by guessing at the weight of each sale. Such a proceeding tarried out In all the lines kept in a store would spell ruin In a short time, yet this Is the way many dairymen do business. " Keeping a record is a very simple operation. If all the pails used in milking are made to weigh the same, which easily can be done, It Is only necessary to keep a milk sheet tacked up in the cow stable where it will be handy. When the cow Is milked hang the pail with the milk in it on the hook of the scale note the weight on the sheet and when the month is ended subtract the weight of the pail as many times as there are weighings and the remainder is the, total weight of the milk. Chasing Troublesome Fly. In the summer time when files are troublesome, one wonders if the market preparations for chasing them from the cow are a success. Several correspondents of an exchange all pronounce them a great comfort both to the cow and the milker. Dairying Right Pays. Every farmer who goes at dairying right socn becomes prosperous, and in "very region where dairying becomes :tensive farus increase in value and I -the people have money. There is n'iie work ?.bout it, to be sure, yet iutre i--? son. ir.y, too. Largest Returns. It has boen found that the cow fresh In the fall gives the largest returns. Your cows may not be fresh now, but you can arrange to have them freshen at the most profitable season. The good dairyman will study breeding as well as that of milk production. When more skimmed milk is produced than the chickens and pigs on can economically consume it will : :;y to keep veal calves till they are bir. or seven weeks old to consume the surplus milk.

preparing the baby's milk ;

Automatic Means of Drawing Off Con- ; tents of Bottle Is Shown in j Illustration Below. In the effort to prepare the baby's ; milk with the least possible amount , of exposure it has become the custom to a considerable extent to use a siphon in drawing off the milk from a bottle. The idea is a good one, but"! unfortunately a great deal of damage Milk Bottle Pump. was done through the Ignorance of mothers and nurses in starting the flow of the siphon by sucking oe end eo as to draw the milk up through the tube. An automatic means of drawing oil the content of a bottle has been devised and is shown in the accompanying cut. In this the milk is forced out, not by suction, but by compression of the air in the bottle. The device consists merely of a cap of rubber mounted on the siphon tube and arranged to rest on the mouth of the milk bottle! The neck of this cap is seized between the thumb and finger and pressed downward, carrying the tube vith It, until the cap virtually is inverted. While the cap is being pressed down the air in the top of the bottle is compressed, thus forcing the milk up through the tube without bringing the rubber into contact with the milk. The siphon then continues to run. SANITARY MILK PAILS BEST IJtneSlc Ar Imnnrtsnt Parf rt flalrv men's Equipment and Require j Careful Attention. j The utensils are a very important part of the dairyman's equipment. The cans and pails should be well , built, with seams well flushed with solder, or, better still, no seams at all. j All utensils require the most careful j attention in regard to cleaning and S sterilizing. They should be thorough- J ly washed and subjected to live steam ' or boiling water, then inverted in pure air. It is Important that the water used WM Milk Pails. j in cleaning be pure, as contagious dls- j eases have frequently originated from j water used in washing. i Some form of small top or covered j milk : all is very important in milk- j ing. j The advantage of the covered pail i over the ordinary open pail In keep- ( Ing dirt out of the milk may be readily seen. W. A. Stocking, Jr., made tests with open and covered pails in a stable where but little care was given to cleanliness, and found that milk drawn in the open pail contained an average of 3,439,200 bacteria per public centimeter, while that drawn In the covered pail contained an average of only 103,600. Weight of Butter Fat. Iiutter is estimated to weigh about one-sixth more than the butter fat It the milk and cream. For instance, if you had 26 pounds butter fat when made into butter the quantity would be six pounds more, or 4 pounds oi churned butter. Most creameries work on this basis. Whether there Is fraud in computing the value of the cream at the creamery depends upon the character of the men. The amount ol butter to be secured from the cream depends upon the butter fat content of that cream. If cream tests 36 pel cent, of butter fat, from 100 pounds ol such cream 42 pounds butter should be churned. If cream contains but 21 per cent, of butter fat, from IOC pounds, but 2S pounds of butter wiU be churned. Buttermilk or whey may profitably be fed to calves. Yocng calves need whole milk foi tht first few days. The b'g yield cow will knock all the doubt and difficulty out of the business of milk production. A good dairy cow usually has bright intelligent looking eyes just the Lln6 that the successful man has. When a tin milk vessel begins tc rust throw it out of service. It is not easy to keep a rusty pall clean. If for any reason you are late Id feeding the calf don't give him anj more than you would if fed on time. Be kind to the dairy cow. Beating and kicking excites and pains her causing her to withhold the milk fronr your bucket. Bacteria in milk breed faster in warm than in cold weather. Yoni dairy products can be improved by a clean and cool milkhouse. Tho dairyman will be successful with cows to the extent that he iJ rible and willing to maintain summei conditions throughout the year. Skim milk may form the principal il'.et of the calf for eiht months or a year. They do not know what their millcosts them nor how much they gtl from a given ov, If he docs this he will make more money from th remaining half that he did from all of them before he bo gan keeping tab on them. To keep such a record requires nol to oxceed two minutes a day, aDd if if is carried out for a year the average dairyman will be ready to sell half ht cowg.

H n a u FRANCIS CcFyrlcht. 1906. CHAPTER XVI. In these days of slowing wheels and silenced anvils South Tredegar had Its own troubles, and when some one telephoned the editor of the Morning Tribune that Chiawasse Consolidated had succumbed at last, he did not deem It worth while to inquire whether the strike at Gordonia was the cause or the consequence of the sudden shut-down. Cut a day or two later, when rumors of threatened violence began to trickle in over the telephone wires, a Tribune man called. In passing, at the general ofiiccs in the Coosa Building, and was promptly put to sleep by the astute Dyckman, who, for reasons of his own, was quite willing to conceal the trie state of affairs. Yes. there was a suspension of active operations at Gordonla. and he believed there had been some hot-headed talk among the miners. But there would be no trouble. Mr. Farley was at present in London negotiating for English capital. When he Bhould return, the capital stock o.' the company would be increased, and the plant would probably be removed to South Tredegar and enlarged. All of which was duly Jotted down to be passed Into the Tribune's archives; and the following mornirg Tom, doing puard duty with his father, the two Helgersons and a squad of the yard men at tho threatened plant, read a pointless editorial In which misstatement of fact and sympathy for the absent and "-niggling Parleys were equally and Impartially blended. "Look at that! he growled, wrathfully, handing the paper across the office desk to Caleb. "One of these fine days' I'm going to land that fellow Dyckman In the penitentiary." The iron-master put on his spectacles and plodded slowly and conscientiously through the editorial, turning the paper, at length, to glance over the headings on the telegraphic page. In the middle of it he looked up suddenly to say: "Son, what was the name o' that Indlany town with the big water-pipe contract?" Tom gave It In a word, and Caleb passed the paper back, with his thumb on one of the press dispatches. "Read that," he said. Tom read, and the wrathful scowl evoked by the foolish editorial gave place to a flittin? smile of triumph. There was trouble In the Indiana city over the awarding of the pipe contract. In some way unknown to the press reporter. It had leaked out that a much lower bid than the one accepted had been ignored by the purchasing committee. A municipal election was pending, and the people were up in arms. Rumors of a wholesale Indictment of the suspected officials were rife, and the city offices were in a state of siege. Tom put the paper down and smote on the desk. "I thought perhaps I could give them a run for their money." "You?" said Caleb, removing his glasses. "How's that?" "It was a shot in the dark, and I didn't want to brag beforehand." he explained. "I wrestled it out Saturday night when I was tramping the hills after Doc Williams had brought mother around. One member of the purchasing committee was ready to dodge; he gave me a pointer before 1 left Louisville. I didn't see anything in It then but revenge; but afterward I saw how we might spend some money to a possible advantage." "I reckon I'm sort o dull. Buddy; w hat-all did you do?" "Wired the disgruntled one that there was a letter and a check In tho mail for him to be followed by another and a bigger one If his pole proved long enough to reach the persimmons." The o:d iron-master left his chair and began to walk the floor, six steps and a turn. After a little he said: "Tom, is that business?" "It is the modern definition of 1." "What's goln to happen up yonder in lndiany?" "'If I knew, I'd be a good bit easier in my mind. What I'm hoping is that the rumpus will be big enough to make em turn the contract cut way." -Where's your heart. Buddy? Would you take the chance of sendin these fellows to Jail for the sake of gettln that contract?" "Cheerfully." said Tom. They're rascals; I could have bought them if I'd had money enough; and tho other fellow did buy them." The old man resumed his monotonous tramp up and down the room. Th hardness in Tom's voice unnerved him. After another Interval of silence ho spoke again. I wish you hadn't done it, son. It's a dlity Job, any way you look at It" "Norman says It's a condition, not a theory; and he is right. We are living under a new order of things, and if we want to stay alive, we've got to conform to it. It gagged me at firstI reckon there are some traces of the Christian tradition left But. pappy, I'm going to win. That Is what I'm here for. There is nothing for us to do but to sit tight and wait. If wo get a telegram from Indiana beforo thesa idiots of ours lose their heads and go to rioting and burning, we shall still have a fighting chance. If not, we'ra smashed." "You mustn't be too hard on th? men. Buddy. They've been mighty patient." "If I could do what I'd like to, I'd fire the last man of them. It makes me savage to have them turn up and knock us on the head after we've been sweating blood to pull through. Have you seen Ludlow?" "Yes; I saw him last night He's right ugly; swore he wouldn't raise a hand even if the boys took kerosene and dynamite to us." "Well, If they do. he'll be the first man to pay for it." said Tom; and he left the oiflce and the houso to make the round of the guarded gates. Ludlow was as good as his word. On the night following the day of suspense an attempt was made to wreck the Inclined railway running from the mines on Lebanon to the coke yard. It was happily frustrated; but when Tom and his handful of guards got back to the foot of the hill they found a fire started in a pile of wooden flasks heaped against the end of the foundry building. The fire was easily extlnguishable by a willing hand or two. but Tom tried an experiment Steam had bo?n kept up i:i a single battery of boi:s against emergencies, and re dmv t ,.-. : llelgersou to throw rp"'' ur; rc i: ; i i irates while he run to t!.; boiler nuoi ! .and Fc-nt the fin-rail of tho lin;-:o si- -.; ; whistle fhrifking o-;t on th" :il-.ht Tli - , experiment was only mo:sorly s;iw-;. i ful.

n h a n LYNDE by Francis Lynd U lightened. But the succeeding night there were more attempts at violence, three of them so determined as vo leave no doubt that the crlsi3 was .t hand. This was Tom's discouraged admission when his father came to relieve him in the morning. "We're about at the end of the rope." he said, wearily, when Caleb had clos3d the door of the log-house yard office behind him. "The two Ilelgersons arc played out, and neither of us can stand this strain for another twenty-four hours. I'm Just about dead on my feet for sleep, and I know you are. I know what I'm going to do. I had a 'phone wire from Bradley, the sheriff, last night after you went home. lie funked like a boy; said he couldn't raise a posse in South Tredegar that wouid serve against striking workmen. Then I wired the governor, and his answer came an hour ago. We can have the soldiers If we make a foimal demand for them." "But, Tom, son; you wouldn't do that!" protested Caleb, tremulously. "Let's try to hold out a little spell longer, Buddy. It'll be like fire to tow; there'll be men killed men that I've known since they were boys: men killed, and women made wldders. Tom, I've st en enough of war to last me." "I know," said Tom. None the lea3, he found a telegraph blank and began to write the message. There had been shots fired In the night. In a sally on the inclined railway, and one of them had scored his arm. If the rioters needed the strong hand to curb them, they should have It Tom signed the call for help, read It over methodically, and placed it between dampened sheets in the letterpress, lie had pushed the electric button which summoned Stub Ilelgerson, when the door opened silently and Jeff Ludlow's boy thrust face and hand through the aperture. "WellT what 13 it?" demanded Tom. more sharply than he meant to. The strain was beginning to tell on his nerves. "Hit's a letter for you-all from Mr. Stamford at the dee-po." said the boy. "He allowed maybe you'all'd gimme ä nickel for bringln' hit" The coin was found and passed, and the small boy was whooping and yelling for Ilelgerson to come and let him through the gates when Tom tore the envelope across and read the telegram. It was from the Indiana city, and It was sigr-ed by the chairman of the Board rf Public Works. "Proposals for water-pipe have been reopened, and your bid is accepted. Wire how soon you can begin to ship eighteen-inch mains," was what it said. Tom handed it to his father and stepper quickly to the telephone. There was a little delay in getting the ear cf the president of the Iron City National at South Tredegar, and the bounding, pulsing blood of Impatience made if seem Interminable. "Is that you. Mr. llennlker? This is Gordon at the Chiawassee plant, Gordonia. We have secured that Indiana contract I was telling you about, and I'll be in to see you on tho 10 o'clock train. Will you save five minutes for me? Thank you. Good-by." Tom hung the ear-pjece on its hook and turned to face his father. "Have you surrounded it?" he laughed, with a little quaver of excitement in his voice, which he had been careful to master In the announcement .to the bank president "We live, pappy; we live and win! Get word to the men to come up here at 3 o'clock for their pay. Tell them we blow in again to-morrow, and Hhey can all come back to work and no questions asked." In gladsome easing of te strain were the wheels of Chlawassee Consolidated oiled to their new whirlings on th road to fortune. -If Caleb Gordon remembered how the miracle had beea wrought he said no word to clench his disapproval; and as for Tom ah, well; It was not the first time In the history of the race that the end has served to Justify the means to make them clean and white and spotless, if need were. N CHAPTER XVII. How Tom Gordon had Informed himself of the precise day and train of their home-coming. Ardea did not think to inquire. But he was on the platform when the train drew in, and was the first to welcome them. She was quick to see and appreciate the changes wrought in him, by time, by the Boston sojourn, by the summer's struggle with adverse men and things though of this last she knew nothing as yet It seemed scarcely credible that the big, handsome young fellow who was shaking hands with her grandfather, helping Miss Euphrasia with her multifarious belongings, and making himself generally useful and hospitable, could be a later reincarnation of the abashed school-boy. "Xot a word for me, Tom?" she said, when the last of Cousin Euphrasla's treasures had been rescued from the i?npatient train porter and added to the head on tho platform. ; "All the words are for you or they shall be presently." he laughed. "Just let me get your luggage out of pawn and started Deer-Traceward. and I'll talk you to a finish." She stood by and looked on while he did it Surely, he had grown and matured In tha three broadening years! There was conscious manhood, effectiveness. In every movement; In tho very bigness of him. Sho had a little attack of patriotism, saying to herself that they did not fashion such young men in the Old World. Mammy Juliet's grandson. Pete, was down with the family carriage, and he took his orders from Tom touching the bestowal of the luggage as he would have taken them from Major Dabney. Ardea marked this, too, and beln Southern bred, wrote the Gordon namt still a little higher on the scroll of esteem. When Pete had done his office with the European gatherings of the party the ancient carriage looked like a van, and there was scant room inside for three passengers. "That means us for old Longfellow and the buggy," said Tom to Ardea. "Any way," said Ardea; so ho put her Into the buggy and they drew in behind the carriage. Before they were half-way to the Iron-works they had lh: pike to themselves, and Tom was not urging the leisurely horse. "My land! but it's .good for tired eyes to have another sight of you!" he 'keknoil. Then: "It has been a fu'd i.'. -nih of Sundays. Do you realize liuit V "Since v. e saw each othor? It has ven much 'ongcr than that, hasn't it?" "Xot sit very much. I saw you iu -W w Yo:k tin- day yo.i sailed." ' Vo-i did! Where va3 1?" "You had just come Jown in the elevator at thi; hotel with your grtndfither and Miss Euphrasia." "And you wouldn't top to sptak to us? I think that was simply barbarous!" "But the time was horribly un?ropltious." "Why?" "I'm wondering whether I'd better He out of it; say I knew you were on y'ir way to breakfast, and that I hoped to

ha-re a later opportunity, and alJ that. Shall I do It?" She did not reply at once. The undeceived inner self was telling her that here lay the parting of the ways; th.it on her answer would be built the structure, formal or confidential, of their

future Intercourse. Loyalty to the halo demanded self-restraint: but every iher fiber of her was reaching out for a re-establishment of the old boy-and-girl openness of heart and mind. Her hesitation was only momentary. "Vnn nra -in as rude and Gothic as you used to be, aren't you, Tom? Don't j you know, I'm childishly glad or it; l was afraid you might be changed in that way, too and I don't want to nnd anything changed. You needn't be polite at the expense of truth not with me." "I had my war paint on that morning, and I wasn't fit to talk to you. Didn't the Major tell you about It?" "Xot a word. I hope you didn't quarrel with him. too?" He marked the adverb of additloi and wondered if Vincent Farley had been less reticent than Major Dabney. "Xo; I didn't quarrel with your grandfather." "But you did quarrel with Mr. Farley? or was it with Vincent? I ar.i going to make you like the Parleys." He shook hi3 head again. "You'll have to make a Christian of me first, and teach me how to love my enemies." "Don't you do that now?" "Xo; not unless you are my enemy; I love you." (To be continued.) SULTAN OF TERN ATE. Qnnint linlorlnliiment FumUhcd by the Comic Opera Iluler. There was a time when the Sultan of Ternate had great power and riches, and lived In grand style. But nowadays, when this potentate show3 himself to his people, he rides in a state carriage a gift from the government, dating from a very remote period of the coach building art which 13 dragged and pushed by natives, whoso business it is to take the place of horses. It is said that horses aro scarce on the Island and that the Sultan resents the idea of placing a native coachman In a more elevated position than himself; therefore, he prefers to drive out at a snail's pace, towed by coolies. When the resident returns an official visit he is fetched in the same vehicle, and In the same curious style. Vislt3 ara generally paid by the resident at 7 o'clock in the evening, and the carriage is then accompanied by torch bearers, which add3 to the fantastic appearance of the cortege and causes great excitement among the islanders, who flock to watch the procession. It takes half an hour to reach the palaco from the resident's house, and at the palace the Sultan awaits his guest at the foot of the steps, surrounded by lackeys holding lighted candles. On arrival of the resident, the Sultan offers him his arm an(l'lead3 him up the steps to his reception hall, where a few chairä covered with red velvet have been placed beforehand. The resident takes a seat to the right of the Sultan, and the native secretaries placo themselves at either side of their royal master. As soon as the resident U seated a servant brings a basin of water for his excellency to wash his hands, if he wishes to do so, but as a rule the resident waves him off. Tea and cakes are next presented; after which a troupe of royal woman dancers, to the number of half a dozen or so, walk slowly In stately fashion, one behind the other, accompanied by a clariCct player in the uniform of the Napoleonic period. At the end of the performance the ladles walk out In the same slow and stately manner, and then there is a pause, during which cigars and sweets are presented. At the termination of the interval another set of dancers this time of the male sex file in, followed by a large number of musicians playing violins, flutes and drums. The dance of the men consists of a series of high jumps and acrobatic performances, ending by their forming themselves into a human pyramid. The male dancers wear curious harlequin costumes with three-cornered hats ornamented with birds-of-paradise feathers, the sight of which would turn any European lady green with envy. It is now time for the resident to return home, and tho ancient carriage, with its quaint human horses and torchbearers, 13 once more placed at his disposal. An Inflated Figure. Addison Mlzner, the well-known bon vivant of New York, was discussing his reported contract with a vaudeville agency for a series of Parisian dances at $o,000 a week. "That report," he said, "Is Inflated. In Its inflation of the salary nnd in its inflation of my knowledge of the dances of the East, the report reminds me of a theatrical criticism I once wrote. In this criticism of a musical comedy I desired to flatter a beautiful dancing girl. The girl's figure was superb. In my article I praised it ardently. But the exigencies of space compelled the excision of most of the praise, and only one sentence, containing a horrible typographical error, was left This unfortunate sentence ran: M 'Kathleen Vavasour, who dances In the second act, possesses a- form that Jumbo might have envied.'" If You Have to Fight Moa. , If any reader of thl3 article should ever be so unfortunate as to experience the embrace of a boa constrictor it is recommended that he try to release himself by taking hold of the creature's tail and unwinding it from that end. It can be easily unwound In that way, but otherwise it Is not possible. The way to kill a snake Is not to attempt to crush ita hea 1, the bones of which are very hard, tut to strike the tall, where the spinal cord is but thinly covered by bone and suffers readily from Injury. It Is the same with an eel. Hit tho tall two or three times against any hard substance and the eel quickly dies. The boas aro not venomous, but their fangs aro sufficiently powerful to seriously wound. After IJUrardlntr tbe Knife. Discussing International marriages, Senator Tillman said humorously at a dinner in Washington: "Think, too, of their queer foreign manners. They knot their napkins about .heir necks, you Know, like bibs. They say that a Czech nobleman, a short time after Iiis niarriago with a Chicago heiress, appeared at the club with his face covered wth fine scars. ""Dear me. count!' cried a friend. Your face! Dueling again! Don't you know that your life is more valuable uow?' "Ah, no, tcmt; the other answered, touching his torn countenance gravely; I have not been dueling. It is my American wife. Sho insists on my eating with a fork.' " "Do you mind? Eongfeiiow i-fearful-ly and wonderfully slow, same a ver, but he s reasonably sure."

NO CHANCE TO GO WRONG

Statement of Beauty Doctor May Have Been True, but It was Not Gallant. William F. Oldham, bishop of Singapore, talked at a dinner, on his last vMt to New York, about missionary w ork. "A certain type of man," he said, "ftOes about declaring that we dominant races civilize the savr :e out of existence that, we do them harm instead of good. "Well, as a matter of fact, if these cavaliers knew what I know about some tribes, they would speak less confidently. Some tribes are so debased that to do them anything but good would hardly be possible. They are, in fact, just like the ugly woman who visited the beauty doctor. "This woman was ugly in every feature, but her nose was particularly ugly. That, no doubt, was why she desired the beauty doctor to begin on it. "I am willing. she said. to pay you liberally, doctor, but I demand in return substantial results. We will start with my nose. Can you guarantee to make it ideally beautiful? "The doctor, after looking attentively at the woman's nose, replied: "'Well, madam, I can't say as to Ideal beauty, but a nose like yours I couldn't help Improving if I hit with a mallet." " NOTHING DOING. Tramp Help me, kind sir. I have seen better days dan dis Mr. Jinks So have I. This weather is awful. IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA "No tonguo can tell how I suffered for five years with itching and bleeding eczema, until I was cured by the Cuticura Remedies, and I am eo grateful I want the world to know, for what helped me will help others. My bQdy and face were covered with sores. One day It would seem to be better, and then break out again with the most terrible pain and itching. I have been sick several times, but never in my life did I experience such awful suffering as with this eczema. I had made up my mind that death was near at hand, and I longed for that time when I would be at rest I had tried many different doctors and medicines without success, and my mother brought me the Cuticura Remedies, Insisting that I try them. I began to feel better after the first bath with Cuticura Soap, and one application of Cuticura Ointment. "I continued with the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, . and have taken four bottles of Cuticura Resolvent, and consider myself well. This was nine years ago and I have had no return of the trouble since. Any person having any doubt about this wonderful cure by the Cuticura Remedies can write to my address. Mrs. Altle Etson, 93 Inn Road, Battle Creek, Mich., Oct 16, 1909." All the Difference. The professor was delivering an eloquent address on cruelty to animals, and, to illustrate how a little judicious forethought would eliminate to a great extent the sufferings that even small Insects are subject to, said: "As I was coming through the hall tonight I saw a bald-headed gentleman very harshly treat a little Innocent house-fly which had alighted on his head. "Now, If there was any justification for such bad temper, I would be quite Justified in indulging in it at the present moment, for a fly has just alighted on the back of my head. I can't see It, but I can feel it. "Possibly some of you can see It now; it is on the top of my head. Now it is coming down my brow; now It Is coming on to my G-r-r-eat pyramids of Egypt, it's a wasp!" Husbands and Housecleanlng. The reason a man wants to get as far away from home as he can during housecleaninp is that everything looks so desperate and it seems as if the "work never would be done. If you would use Easy Task soap tb3 work would be over In less time and would be done more thoroughly.
