Eczema is caused by an acid humor lit the blood coming in contact with the ikin and producing great redness and in flammation ; little pustular eruptions form and discharge a thin, sticky fluid, which dries and scales off ; sometimes the skin is hard, dry and fissured. Eczema in any form is a tormenting, stubborn disease, and the itching and burning at times arc almost unbearable; the acid burning humor seems to ooze out and set the skin on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter nal applications do any real good, for as long as the poison remains in the blood it will keep the skin irritated. BAB FORM OF TETTER.

May I huld 'them a moment' 1 should just love to; they tire so cute." The speaker was a comely, matronly looking woman, well, though sumo what showily, dicssed. She was one of a mutley crowd that stood beiore an exhibition piatloim In a dime museum. On the platiorm sat 11 garish young woman, who, on the show bills, was "the peerless Circassian beauty." Shu woie very short skirts, as tent Circas sian beauties always do, and her high heeled satin slippers and crimson silk en hose were undoubtedly Imported from the wilds of Clrcassta. Her hair stood lip lu 11 great muss, like the boll of u ripened dandelion. It was proba bly n Wig, but It was tho orthodox stylo of beauty tor the dime museum "Clr ciish." At-the feet of the beauty lay the "dar lings" which had evoked the woman visitor's admiring exclamation. They were nut babies, hut a pair of big diamond-backed rattlers, the deadliest of the rattlesnake tribe. Sulcly caged lu u den of wire and glass, they cou.d do no harm, but at each of the hourly ex hibitions given In the museum the Cir cassian beauty would take the venom ous reptiles from their deti, fondle them and, as the museum patrons ex pressed It, "do stunts" with them. The beauty looked somewhat auspiciously at tho woman who had made the re quest. "Don't," she exclaimed. "They're the most poisonous of all snakes and their bite means almost certain death. The managers would not allow you to touch them and It might cost you your life." "Willi! 1 nu t af'iild," was tho re ply. "I was In thu business before you was born and handled smiUes that was a ilf.il trickier tliuii nittiers. Water moccasins, black and pulf adders :tnil venomous reptiles from all parts of the world. Once." she milled proud ly, "1 owned 11 cobra." Tho woman on the platform Incontinently surrendered and allowed the visitor to take her p.ts. which the sti anger fondled as 11 loud mother would a baby. 'Oo wouldn't huit mninnin. would 00 V" she cooed as the ugly. Mat head of the rattler lay against her cheek. Tho snake darted out Its forked tongue, but It did not spring its ruttles. Tho glitter of Its beady eyes showed that It was fully conscious or whnt was taking place, but It evidently enjoyed being caressed by tho veteran. "Kven tho most venomous snakes are harmless as long as they are treated right," said iie wb'iunii. "They love to bo petted' and stroked, Just as a cat does. If they are tormented, they are likely to strike Itattlers aro the easiest or nil sunken to handle, ror they won't bite without giving warning. Nearly always they will coll ror a Htrlke, and Invariably they will spring their rattles. "I was In the business nearly lirtccn years. In that time 1 was bitten moro than n score or times, but It wns al ways because or my own carelessness. I always kept antidotes at hand and never suffered rrom a blto moro than most persons would rrom thu sting of a bee. Snnkes huve always, been one or the best cards In museums nnd s!do sliows. In nine eases out or ten thu reptiles are handled by women. Tho act proves more attractive to the public than when they are handled by men. Ilcsldcs, womer, take to snakes more readily than men. Perhaps they In herited 'thnt rrom old Mother Kvo," and tho speaker laughed at the suggestion. New York Sun. WESTERN MONEY 13 DIRTY. liuHtcrn CI t lea Grub the New Currency iHHiivd by Trcusiiry Department. Tho bulk or tho paper currency lu cir culation throughout tho West Is well worn and orten exceedingly filthy by reason or Its long use. A crisp new hill Is n curiosity lu most Western communities. Thu currency Is kept lu circulation so long that It will hardly hold together, whllo It Is redolent or tho roulest of smells. That which Is returned to tho Treasury Department from Chicago for replacement Is said to be tho worst of all. It Is so bud that the employes or the department stub bornly try to get assigned to desks ! wherq nono or this ragged, filthy cur 'reucy Is handled. Thoso who havo tu !bles whero New York, Boston, Phila delphia or Washington money Is han dled aro considered very fortunate. From these towns coino money for re demption which Is practically now. Many banks In the Hast make It 11 rulo to never put out old money. Many of the bills from Washington havo never been folded. Tho chief of the redemption division explains that a New York bank which would pay out such money as Is handed over the Chicago bunk counters could not do business. Its customers would not have the tolled and ragged money. Many go further nnd say the filthy money Is dangerous. The facts do not bear this out. There never has been a case of contagious sickness In the de partment which could bo traced to con taminated bills. Tho reason why tho West gets dirty money and tho Knst gets clean money rests entirely with the bunks. The Eastern hanks supply new currency because their cuntomers refuso to han dle the other kind, Thu Western banks give out dirty currency because their customers do not protest. It costs thu banks extra to get new money. It costs 20 cent per $1,000 to send old money to the department for redemp tion and Its costs the saniu amount to get the new bills, 11 total cost of -10 ceiitn The tloveriimunt pays the ex pressage on stiver. Tho banks say that they would be glad to furnish new hills If the Government would pay the ex pressage. Unquestionably they would. P.ut the Dastein banks Hud It no hard ship itud are glad to p.ty thu express age to keep the new currency on hand. If nil the banks lu thocountry would suddenly decide to use only new bills over their counters the bureau of en graving and printing would be unable to supply the extra demand. This Is the one department or the (Jovcrnment that runs day and night, with three different shifts alt day except Sundays itud holidays. Hut ir the bankers should nsk for clean money Congress would be glad to furnish the extra printing. The reform for clean money proceeds slowly. One bank nearly always be gins. Sometimes the banks let It bo known that In their woman's depart ments only new currency will be paid out. The Innovation Is usually Infec tious The department knows that when one bank stnrts others will fol low. FORTUNE FROM COMIC SONG. Popularity of the Componltlou Means Money to CoittpoHcr. The actors who have made their famo on one play, thu authors whoso reputation rests upon one book, or tho orators whose celebrity Is connected with otio speech, nre not nearly so nu merous us the singers who 'have bo come known through one song. Tho recent death' of "The Great McDer mott," who will go down to posterity as the singer of "lly Jingo, Wo Will," the song which made the term "Jingo ism," a familiar term lu tho 1-higllsh language, recalls thu story of many or these oue-nchleved Individuals. "The most fickle nnd dlfllcult to un derstand people lu the world," said a theatrical manager a row days ago, "are the comic-song public. Sometimes n song, with absolutely 110 merit to rec ommend It, will-go like wildfire, while, on the other baud, some or thu must clever and cntchy songs ever written tall as lint as a smoothing Iron. "A song will sometimes he sung by a musli-lmll singer which will seem to hnve In It 110 moro or the elements of popularity than any other soug. Yet suddenly It will become nil tho rage, and will be hummed and whistled by thousands or people all over thocountry who never heard the uniiiu or thu sing er, and perhaps never put their fool In thu music hall. Probably, then, a year or two later the sumo singer will ap pear with a soug quite us taking, ap parently, as thu first one, yet It will rail to create the slightest stlr.aud will be n dead letter, except to those who havo heard It lu music halls." Instances of the accuracy of this gen eralization abound. It was Miss Lot tie Collins who tlrst snug "Ta-ra-booui-de-ay" in a London music hall, Few thought' It wns a song out of tho ordi nary, even thoso who heard It, yet within a few days all Loudon was humming It, and It was not long before It had become ns familiar us "God Save tho Queen." It Is said that thero are nt least 11 dozen singers of comic songs who are known In tho profession us "one-soug men." Tlie meaning of the title Is, of course, that they havu sung 0110 soug which completely eclipsed nil or their other performances. For Instance, Charles Coboru, the man who sung "Tho Man That llroku thu Hank at Monte Curio," uiadu more money out of other songs, but ror one person who knows one or his other songs probably 11 hiuulrul know this one. Other familiar Instances of tho one song success nre Anna Weld's "Won't You Come and Play With Mo?" and Kruest Wognn's "Who Said Chicken lu This Crowd'" Hotli of theso havo sung many another soug, hut uoiiu of the others has had such extreme pop ularity. Thu authors or "Little Atiulo Itooney," "After the Hull Is Over" and other equally well-known songs are almost unknown, yet lu many cases their one soug carried them to tempo rary famo. Now York Times. Huvc-tl His Money. Many boys have been thrilled to sleeplessness by stories or the Austral ian bushrangers. George K. Itoxall's historic study or these lawless bauds, "Tho Story or the Australian Hush raiigcr," contains material enough ror a dozen volumes of adventure. Hero U one episode: A man named Michel who went to an Inn ror food found the place lu tho hands of the bushrangers. Fourteen guests were ulrendy disarmed and were being searched lu order, Michel was compelltd to tube his place lu line. The bushruugers handed him n pan nikin full of tea before they took his money. Knowing what was coming, he held tho pannikin as If thu tea were too hot to drink, and when the leader of the highwaymen wus looking away drupicd his roll of bunk-notes Into It. Ho stood wry quietly, and when the bushrangers came to feel his pockets thero were only u few shillings In them. The robbers appeared satisfied, und al lowed him to go. We curried the panni kin out with him, took his money and put It lu his pocket without being ob served. Then he mounted his horse, rode to the nearest police station and gave Information.
