WATSON V ILL E, CAL.
Young Woman Found in Awful Con
dition with Scabies? Body a Mass
of Sores from Scratching? Tried
Many Remedies for Seven Weeks
? Result Was Discouraging, But
ITCHING TORTURES
YIELDED TO CUTICURA
"While J was doing missionary work
I in the lower portion of several cities I
' found it necessary to know a little of
the efilcnev of a few medicines and
after a while I found that a little knowl
edge of Cuticura was about all I needed.
One of the very bad cases 1 had to deal
with was that of a young woman who
had come to us not onlv broken in
spirit but in a most awful condition
physically. Our doctor examined her
and told' us that she had scabies (the
itch), incipient paresis, rheumatism,
etc., brought on from exposure and tho
effects of her ragged-edged life. Her
poor body was a mass of sores from
scratching and she was not able to
retain solid food. W? tried many things,
a good tonic was prescribed and batns
with a nibbing of lard and sulphur. We
worked hard for seven weeks and you
can imagine how discouraged we were
when, after all that time, we could seo
so little improvement. One day I hap
pened to see a Cuticura advertisement
tolling how a little baby had been
cured of a bad case of skin eruption,
and although I had but ninety-seven
cents with me, I bought a cake of Cuti
cura Soap and a bottle of Cuticura
Resolvent. When I reached home I
was like a child with a new toy, and we
bathed our patient well and gave her a
full dose of the Resolvent. She slept
that night better than she had since
she had been with us and the next day
I located the price of a box of Cuticura
Ointment. I am not exaggerating
when I say that in exactly five weeks
thus young" woman was able to look for
a position, being strong enough to work
and full of ambition. In another
month she left the home, and now has
a good position in a nice family where
she Is resjieeted and is strong and well.

may Indeed emphasize? tin- difference
between lt!OS and UK'S.
The cruiser Indomitable has boon
callcd a "mystery ship" because of tin
profound secrecy observed concerning
her details during construction. She
Is one of the three sl.?.ter ships, the two
others being the Invincible and Inflexi
ble. which were voted In 1905 and laid
down In UKH5. They are to all cruisers
of the past what tho Dreadnought Is
to nil earlier battleships. The Indom
itable Is 530 feet long and has n dis
placement of 17,230 tons. She and her
sister ships are designed to be the
fastest, largest aud most heavily
armed cruisers yet built. The Indom
itable resembles In many respects a
fast battleship more than a cruiser.
She carries eight huge twelv ? iuch
guns, each forty-live feet long aud
each capable of tiring an STiO pound
shell twice in the minute.
The Prince of Wales and Prince
Arthur of Connaught. representing
England's royal family, naturally oc
casion much enthusiasm among the
subjects of King Edward by their visit
to Quebec in connection with tho tor
centenary celebration. Tho Prince of
Wales Is the second son of King Ed
ward and Queen Alexandra nnd on the
death of the present monarch will as
cend the throne as King George V.
He was born on June 3, 1805, aud is
known rs "the sailor prlnco." He mar
ried Princess Victoria Mary of Teck,
popularly known as Princess May,
granddaughter of Queen Victoria's
] nucle, the first Duke of Cambridge,
and she will, on tho accession of her
husband, be the first English born
wife of an English king since the time
of James II. In 1001 the Prince and
Princess of Wales made one of the
longeiir Journeys ever undertaken by
royal personages, a Journey covering
u distance equal to twice around the
world. The prince spends most of his
time at home, however, su|>erintending
his estates and looking after the edu
cation of his children, who number
tlx.
Prince Arthur of Connaught Is a sop
of the Duke of Connaught and nephew
of the king and wan born hi 1883. He
Is known as "the soldier prince," as he
fought In the Boer war, being but a
mere boy at the time.

The horsemanship tests are not thor
oughly understood by the public. Tlicy
are not only necessary for ollicers, who
may have to go on long marches In
war, but they are a means of keeping
them In condition physically and men
tally for whatever duties they may be
called upon to perform.

the late General Ulysses S. Grant, the
hero of tho civil war. I >tirii)K the

will probably materially increase tlie
number before 1000 rolls around. Sev
enteen is b.v long odds Miss Ethel's fa
vorite age. and she doesn't care how
often It happens. Now at Manchester.
Mass., visiting fikuds, Miss Ethel was
announced by Secretary Loeb on July
10 to We giving a birthday party. Later
this was denied. Then Mr. Loeb decid
ed that Miss Ethel should be seven
teen on July IS. The president im
patiently and emphatically denied that
this date was correct. Finally Loeb
and Miss Ethel concluded that Aug
10 would be as pood a time as any to
become seventeen. Now It Is said at
Oyster Bay that Miss Ethel will be
seventeen In September.
It is thought strange that a man of
Mr. Loeb's experience should Indulge
in any discussion over the age of any
woman, young or old, for lives, for
tunes and kingdoms have been lost by
similar action. It Is contended that
he ought to allow Miss Ethel unre
stricted control over the number of
her birthdays, and If she bow insists
on having two or three a month let her
do so, for the time will soon come, all
foo soon, when she will Insist on hav
ing less than one birthday every three
years. Thus on her whole life she will
strike a pretty accurate average.
