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 A. Hawtof, 11 Nostrand Ave., lyn, N .Y., July 30 and Aug. 8, ’09.” 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. Time to Think Over Suicide. He took paris green to commit sui cide. Too big a dose to kill him.

Savoury Wholesome Economical “The Memory Lingers” Postum Cereal Co.', Ltd., Battle Creek, Mich. 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.

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. Putting in the Time.

"What makes you ask that?” asked the gentleman. “I was thinking I could make bricks In my spare time,” said the man. Ancient City Modernized.
