Tetterine Cures an Orphan’s
Tetter.
Bell Haven Orphan'Home, Luling, Texas,
This is to certify that 1 have tested
the merits of Tetterine among the chil
dren of this home and find it to be a suc
cess. One little girl had a very bad case
of tetter on her head which had taken
most of her hair out. I could notice
some improvement after using the sec
ond application, and after one week's
treatment all traces were gone and her
hair commenced to grow back. I can
earnestly recommend Tetterine tor all
skin diseases. Yours respectfully,

James A. Patten Denies That
He Controls the Market.
55,000,000 BUSHELS NEEDED
Wheat King Has Preached Gospel of
Higher Wheat Because the Grain
Bins Are Empty.
Chicago, 111,—The appeal of Pitts
burg bakers to Secretary Knox 10
take steps to end manipulation of
wheat and other markets, excited
comment by James A, Patten of Chi
cago, popuiariy alleged to control the
present market for the high-priced ce
real,
“In the first place,” said Mr. Pat
ten, “I don't control the market. My
line at no time has run over 10,000,
000 bushels, 1 have preached the
gospel of higher wheat because I saw
what was coming. 1 saw it first, I
believe, but when it comes to ‘con
trolling the market,’ there are LwO
or three hundred other men who have
bought who have something to say
about that.”
“I'm a grain trader and I don’t in
tend to quit, I bought when the mar
ket looked cheap, as did others who
accepted my views, and I'm going to
gell it at a profit, if 1 can, I have al
ready sold a great deal
“This is no corner; no manipula
tion; others who bought may sell as
demand develops.”
Mr. Patten then diagnosed the sit
uation as he understands it.
“For three or four years this has
been coming, and 1 saw it. At the
end of each crop bins were empty
everywhere., With increased popula
tion here and abroad it was obvious
that sooner or later the crop of one
year would be exhausted before a
new crop was at hand. Last fall, if
not earlier, I saw it coming. I bought
wheat and my friends did likewise.
“The great unthinking public here
and in Europe would not, or could
not, see what was coming. Liverpool
would not buy months ago, thinking
the prices of that day too high. Now
Europe wants 55,000,000 bushels. The
harvest was early last year. It has
been trying to cover thirteen months
instead of the usual twelve, and it
can’'t do it. We need wheat for the
mills right here in Chicago now.”
“Maybe some of the shorts will de
liver it to you on your May con
racts?ss was suggested.
“1 wish they would, for there is
not any to speak of here. We could
us> half a miilion for the local miil
ing trade.
“Here's another point. If we hadn’t
bought wheat—l mean myself and
others—the price would be higher
here than it is. Europe would have
taken it, for the foreigners finally rec
ognized the weakness of their posi
tion, and where would the domestic
supply have come from? We would
have been compelled to buy from the
very Europeans we sold to. I regard
it as fortunate that it was Americans
who first diagnosed crop conditions
and took advantage of it.
“This was not philanthropy. My
business is buying and selling grain.
1 trade to make profits, but this talk
of manipulation is all rot.”
COTTON RATES REDUGED.
The Commerce Commission Decides
Against Seaboard Rate Contest.
Washington, D. G.—The Interstate
Commerce Commission, in a decision
rendered in a case involving the rea
sonableness of rates in cotton from
Florida points to Savannah, declared
that the rate of 39 cents per 100
pounds on sea island cotton from
Alachua to Savannah, when shipped
over the Seaboard Air Line, will aif
ford it reasonable compensation for
the haul, and will, therefore, be a rea
sonable rate over that line for the
future. The 40 cents rate over that
line from Gainesville to Savannah are
held to be unreasonable and unduly
discriminatory.
The commission said that the rate
from these points to Savannah ought
not in the future to exceed the rate
here fixed over that line from Alachua
to Savannah., The case was that of
the railroad commission of Florida
against the Seaboard Air Line Rail
way and the Atlantic Coast Line Com
pany. The complaint involved the
relation of rates on sea island cotton
from Alachua, Gainesville and Haw
thorn, Fla., to Savannah, Ga., the re
spective rates being 39, 40 and 45
cents per 100 pounds via each of the
defendant lines.. The Florida Rail
road Commission regarded this ad
justment as an undue preference to
Alachua. The commission held the
complaint well founded as to the Sea
board, but made no findings as to the
Atlantic <Coast Line Railrcad Com
pany, because of its greater length
of haul.

Throat Troubles Weaken the System,
A serious illness is often brought
on by a neglected sore throat.
All throat troubles invariably weak
en the system and should not be al
lowed to go unchecked.
A gargle made with twelve drops of
Sloan’s Liniment in half a glass of
water will break up a sore throat.
Sloan’s Liniment is an excellent
remedy for tonsilitis, croup, asthma
and bronchitis. Applied freely to the
outside of the throat and chest, it
draws out the inflammation, reduces
the swelling and relieves any sore
ness. Twelve drops of this Liniment
in half a glass of water makes a splen
did antiseptic gargle.
Mr. Albert W. Price of Fredonia,
Kans.,, writes:—“We have used
Sloan’s Liniment in the family for
about a year, and find it an excel
lent relief for colds and hay fever at
tacks. Two drops of the Liniment in
a teaspoonful of water will stop cough
ing and sneezing instantly.”
Mr. L. T. Hurst of Coatesville, Ind.,
R. R. No. 1, writes:—*“l find your Lin
iment the best remedy I have ever
tried for sore throat, either for horse
or man. I once cured a case of sore
throat on myself the second day and
almost the first night, which had con
tinued for over three weeks, under
constant treatment of three physi
cians (I was traveling) and it was get
ting worse.”

BABY'S WATERY ECZEMA.
Itched and Scratched Until Bloed Ran
—330 Spent on Useless Treatments
—Disease Seemed Incurable——
Cured by Cuticura for $1.50.
“YWhen my little boy was two and a half
months old he broke out on hoth cheelks
with eczema. It was the itchy, watery
kind and we had to keep his little hands
wrapped up all the time, and if he would
happen to get them uncovered he would
claw his face till the blood streamed down
on his clothing. We called ir?i physician
at once, but he gave an ointment which
was so severe that my babe would scream
when it was put on. We changed doctors
and medicines until we had spent fifty dol
lars or more and baby was getting worse.
I was so worn out watching and caring for
him night and day that I almost felt sure
the disecase was incurable. But finally
reading of the good results of the Cuticura
Remedies, I determined to try them. I can
truthfully say T was more than surprised,
for I bought only a dollar and a half’s
worth of the Cuticura, Remedies (Cuticura
Soap, Ointment and Pills), and they did
‘more good than all my doctors’ medicines
I had tried, and in fact entirely cured him.
