ROOSEVELT SCORES DEMOCRATS
Theodore Roosevelt, lu the current
u. uib*T of the Outlook declares:
"There was but one point in the
platform of either party in 190S whlca
contained any element of menace tO'
the peace of the world. This was the
plank in the Bryan platform which
Ceiuanded the immediate exclusion by
law of all Asiatic laborers, and there
foi the Japanese. Coupled with this
was an utterly meaningless plank
about the navy, which was. however,
intended to convey the Impression
that we ought to have a navy only
for the defeuse of our coasts, that is.
merely a defensive navy, or iu other
words, a quite useless navy."
Proceeding, Col. Roosevelt dis-j
cussed Count Tolstoi, saying that
wherever his influence has been felt,
i has been for evil. He explains that
if the reader is strong enough to dis- 1
criminate, something good can be got :
fiotn Tolstoi's writing, but makes
dear his opinion that weak persons
are influeuce evilly by the great Rus
sian author.
THE PITCHER
I'd like to be a Pitcher, and on tliej
Diamond stand, a cap upon my Fore
head. a Hall within uiy Hand. Before
Applauding Thousands. I'd throw tin
Curving Sphere, and From the eyes
of Batsmen, bring forth the Briny
Tear. I'd make my Occupation a !
thing of Pomp and Bread. I'd tie My
self in Bow-knots, and stand upou my
Head; a string of Wild Contortions
would mark my Every Throw, and all
the Fans would Murmer: "Oh. Girls,
ain't he a Jo?" And when I left the J
Diamond, on Rest or Pleasure bent,
the Kids would trail behind me. and
Worship as they went; and all the I
Sporty Grownups would say: "He's
Warm Enough:" and fair and Cultur- 1
ed Ladies would cry: "He is the
Stuff:" I'd like to be a Pitcher, while
I Remain Below; by day to Gather
Garlauds. by night to Count the

HEALTH.
THERE used to be a little boy
In duya of golden rule
Who always felt at eight a. m.
To? uli-k to (to to school.
But swiftly "from his strange disease
He would recuperate
And from his sickbed rise at ten
To play or swim or skate.
U'E wondered what became of him.
* " And now at last we know.
An army major ho became
The same physique to show.
Retired for Incapacity.
He none the less will rise
And with a mighty Nlmrod hunt
"Neath AfriC'd burning skies.

EROMECZEI
Could Lay Slate-Pencil in One
Hands in Dreadful State? Dis
ease Defied Remedies and Pre
scriptions? Suffered Seven Years.
FOUND A PERMANENT
CURE IN CUTICURA
" I had eczema on my hands for about :
?even years and during that time I had
used several so-called
remedies, together with
physicians' and drug
gist*" prescriptions. The
disease was so bad on
my hands that 1 could
lay a slate- pencil in one
of the cracks and a rule
placed across the hand
would not touch the
pencil. I used ,
. ? Skin Lotion.
Remedy and
others externally but I I
did not use any interna! remedy, and
while some gave partial relief, none re
lieved as much as did the first box of i
Cuticura Ointment. I made a purchase |
of Cuticura Soap and Ointment and ]
my hands were perfwtly cured after two
boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one
cake of soap were used. I now keep
them on hand for sunburn, etc.. and use (
Cuticura Soap for shaving. I could write
a great deal more in reference to my j
cure but do not want to take more of j
your time. William H. Dean, Newark,
Del.. Mar. 2S, l'.iOT."
CHILD SUFFERED
With Sores on Legs. Cured in
Two Weeks by Cuticura.
"My little daughter suffered with
sores on her legs all last summer. Her
feet were son-, too, and she couldn't
wear her shoes. 1 think she was poisoned
by running through weeds but the doc
tor said it was eczema. 1 tried several
remedies but failed to find a cure. Then
I sent for Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment which cured her in two weeks.
I find Cuticura the best I ever tried for
any k ind of sore and I hope I shall never
be 'without it. Mrs. Gertie Laughlin.
