16 YEARS OH SKIN DISEASE
"For sixteen long years I have been
Buffering with a bad case of skin dis
ease. While a child there broke out a
red sore on the legs just in back of
my knees. It waxed from bad to worse,
and at last I saw I had a bad skin
disease. I tried many widely known
doctors in different cities but to no
satisfactory result. The plague both
ered me more in warm weather than
in winter and being on my leg joints
it made it impossible for me to walk,
and I was forced to stay indoors in the
warmest weather. My hopes of recov
ery were by this time spent. Sleepless
nights and restless days made life an
unbearable burden. At last I was
advised to try the Cuticura remedies
[Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills]
and I did not need more than a trial
to convince me that I was on the road
of success this time. I bought two
sets of the Cuticura Remedies and
after these were gone I was a differ 1
ent man entirely. I am now the hap‘
piest man that there is at least ond
true care for skin diseases. Leonard

Significance in Names.
In an Illinois town a workingman
having been informed that a sixth
baby had arrived at his home, ex l
claimed: “Sufficient,” and his neigh*
bors, referring to his having given
that name —Sufficient —to the new
arrival, credited him with originality.
The incident resembles a case nearer
home, adds the New York Tribune.
A New York family was blessed with
nine daughters, when the stork
brought a tenth one. It was in the
days when the slang term for an oft
told story was a “chestnut,” and as
the baby certainly came under that
head, she received the name, but for
Euphony’s sake the French for the
word was employed, and she was
called Marron.

MRS. EDDY IS DEAD
THE FOUNDER OF CHRISTIAN
SCIENCE PASSES AWAY AT
HER HOME NEAR BOSTON.
SHE WAS NINETY YEARS OLD
Natural Causes Given as the Reason
of Death of Science
Leader.
Barton. —Mrs. Mary Baker Glover
Eddy, founder and leader of Chris
tian Science, died at her home in
Chestnut Hill.
“Natural causes,” explains the
death, according to Dr. George L.
West, a district medical examiner,
who was summoned a few hours af
ter Mrs. Eddy passed away. Later
Doctor West added to his statement
by saying that the more immediate
cause was probably pneumonia.
No physician was in attendance,
but she had the assistance of the
students who comprised her house
hold. Her thought was clear until
the last, and she left no final mes
sage. Mrs. Eddy was born in Bew,
N. H., July lti, 1821, and was, there
fore, in her ninetieth year.
There can he no question of who
is to succeed Mrs. Eddy. She can have
no suctessor. Christian Scientists the
world over universally regarded her
as the discoverer and founder of the
religion she taught and there cannot
he two founders of a religion.
Washington.—Former Senator Wil
liam E. Caandler of New Hampshire,
who was counsel for the children of
Mrs. Mary Baker (J. Eddy, in the lit
igation over her estate, said that he
believed her fortune, nearly $2,000,000,
has been given to the cause of Chris
tian Science.
TO ABANDON NAVY YARDS.
Secretary of War Recommends That
Southern Yards Be Discontinued.
Washington.—The results of a care
ful, personal investigation by Secre
tary George Von L. Myer of many of
the navy yards and naval stations are
apparent in certain sweeping recom
mendations for the abolition of some
of these and the development of oth
ers,
Secretary Meyer recommends giving
up and disposing of the naval stations
at New Orleans, Pensacola, San Juan,
Port Royal, New London, Sackett s
Harbor, Culebra and Cavite. He finds
that the average yearly cost of niain
tairflng these stations for the past five
years has been $1,672,675,
Touching the New Orleans yard, it
is said that its position, 100 miles up
the Mississippi river, is such that in
time of war no large vessels should be
sent there, on account of the danger
of the passes being blocked.
The Pensacola navy yard is con
demned as impossible of fortification,
and as a strategetically unnecessary.
The secretary thinks that the gulf and
south Atlantic coasts can best be de
fended by an effective naval station
at Guantanamo, Cuba, where the emer
gency docking and repair facilities
should be provided at an expense of
about ?300,000 or $400,000. This would
involve the transfer to Guantanamo
of the New Orleans floating dock and
machine tools from the Algiers yard
and from Pensacola. Key West alone
cf the gulf naval stations should be
maintained; not as a first class sta
tion, but for the supply and quick re
pair of small gunboats and torpedo
craft operating the Caribbean sea.
Because the Portsmouth, Boston,
New York, Philadelphia and Norfolk
yards have accessible dry docks of
which we have too few, it is found
impossible to give up any of them.
Port Royal has a dry dock unapproach
able for battleships or even cruisers,
and the Charleston dock is likewise
useless as the channel fills in at the
rate of from three to four feet a year.
But in regard to final recommendation
as to other yards and auxiliary sta
tions on the Atlantic coast, save those
specifically named for abandonment,
the secretary says he awaits the rec
ommendation of the joint board of the
army and navy.
Secretary Meyer severely criticised
all the Pacific coast naval stations,
but did not recommend that they be
abandoned, and an appropriation for
$25,000 for aeroplane experiments is
asked by the secretary.
Want Uniform Divorce Laws.
Pittsburg.—A uniform divorce law
that will be introduced in the legisla
ture of every state will be prepared
by the National Reform association at
its convention in this city. It also
will discuss organized attempts to
abolish the use of the Bible in the
public schools, discontinue chaplains
in congress, to do away with Thanks
giving, abolish the judicial oath ana
repeal laws looking to the observance
of the Sabbath. The most important
matter under discussion is the di
vorce laws.
Life Sentence for Wendling.
Louisville, Ky.—Joseph Wendling
was found guilty by a jury of the
murder of 8-year-old Alma Kellner and
his punishment fixed at life impris
onment. Wendling was talking to
his wife, Mrs. Madeline Wendling,
when the verdict was announced. He
remained perfectly calm. “I either
killed the little girl or I did not,”
Wendling said.. “They should either
send me to the electric chair or turn
me free.” The evidence presented
against Wendling was purely circum
stantial.

RED CROSS SEAL IN HISTORY
First Used During the American Civil
War —Now an Aid in Fight
ing Tuberculosis.
Red Cross Christmas seals date
back in their origin to “charity
stamps,” first used for the soldiers’
relief funds in Boston in 1562, during
the Civil w T ar. After the war, this
method of raising money was discon
tinued in this country for a genera
tion, although it found vogue in Por
tugal, Switzerland, Australia, France,
Spain, Denmark, Norway, Russia,
Sweden and other European coun
tries. There are now several hun
dred different types of charity stamps
used in all parts of the world.
Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the anti-tuberculosis
crusade in Norway and Sweden in
1904. After being used in these coun
tries for three years, as a direct re
sult of the interest of Jacob Riis in
this movement, the Delaware Anti-
Tuberculosis association, headed by
Miss Emily P. Bissell, and the Red
Cross society of Delaware combined
in issuing a tuberculosis stamp. So
successful was this campaign that
nearly $3,000 was realized, and the
next year, in 1908, the American Red
Cross was induced to issue a national
Red Cross tuberculosis stamp. From
this sale, $135,000 was realized, that
amount being almost doubled in 1909.
This year, for the first time, the sale
is organized on a comprehensive
basis, taking in all parts of the
United States. A million for tuber
culosis work is confidently expected.

clean the windows and the boots and
the knives and go messages, chop
wood, cut short grass, mind the horse
and pony, look after the garden and
keep the house supplied with vege
tables and do any odd job that is re
quired and if suitable you will get
ten shillings a week.”
“Is there any clay in the garden?”
asked the man.
"What makes you ask that?” asked
the gentleman.
“I was thinking I could make bricks
In my spare time,” said the man.
