Cure! by Cuticura If T. had known of the Coticora Remb DIKS t venty eiht years ago it would have saved me $200 00 (two-hundred dollars) and an immense amount of Buttering. My dis ease (psoriasis) conunenceil on my head in a HKt not larger than a cent. It spread rapidly all over my liody and got under my nails. The scales would drop off of me ail the time, and my suffering was endless and without relief. One thousand dollars would uot tempt me to have this disease over again. I am a poor man Imt feel rich to he relieved of what some of the doctors said was leprosy, some ringworm, psoriasis, etc. I took . . . and . . S-irsapariUas over one year ami a half, Imt no cure. I cannot praise the CrmcCRA ' Kemkdiks too much. They have niade my skin as clear and free from scales as a baby's. All I used of them were three boxes of CcrricCRA, and three bottles of timcCRA UesoLVBnt, and two c tkes of Cuticura SOAP.

I looked like the picture in your book of (isoriasis (picture number two, '"How to CureSkiu disease"), but now 1 am as clear as any person ever was Through force of habit I rub my hands over my arms ami legs to scratch once in a while, but to no purpose.

The neighbors state that Waud refused to give his wife the medicine left for her by the physician, but threw it away and injected morphine in her arm. Once, when some whis- key had been left lor her he drank it himself. It was not until the (physician threatened to prosecute him if he gave her any more mor phine tint he let her alone. There was soma talk of lynching when the facts were learned, but the threats were not cairied into eflect. No punishment can be too severe for such a man. Mrs. Waud's maiden name was Millie Branstet ter, and when she lived in this city ! was a large, healthy young lady, j She was married to.Waud here , several years ago. He has been a victim of the morphine habit lor a longtimefand after their marriage it is said he soon made her a vic tim, and before her death she had changed so that her friends would scarcely recognize her. Thus ends a oiie happy and promising life. Eugene Register. - FOOR HUMANITY. The common lot is one of sorrow sty at least die pessimists, they who look at the worst side. Certainly what would etherwise be a bright existence, is often shadowed by soma ailment that overhang it like a pall, obscuring perpetually the radiauce that else would licit the path. Such an ailment, and a .very common one, is nervousness, oriu other w jrdi, weak u ess of the tiervmts system, a condition only ir remediable where inefficient or improper means are tiken to relieve it. The con current experience of netvous people who have pesisteutlv used Hustetter's Stomach Bitters is, that it conquers entirely super sensitiveness of the nerves, as well as dis ease so called which are invited .' and sustained by their chronic weakness. As the nerves gain stamina from the great tonic the trouble, disappears. Uso the Bitters for malaria, rheumatism, billions uess aud kidney tronbles.

In re sponse to a resolution of the "sen ate, Postmastar-General Wa'na- maker has sent to that body an estimate of the increased cost of extending the free delivery system to all cities and towns of not less than 3,000 inhabitants, and also of not less than 5,000. There, are 664 of the former, and the exten sion of the system to them, would cost i he government $1,317,000; and 291 of the latter, requiring $697,225 for extending the system to them. ' At frequent intervals, there is a-demand made for re duced rates of postage, but if the people of the United States could be polled on the question it would be found that a very large ma jority want increased efficiency in the postal service much more than they want one-cent let'er postage. There is no general demand for re duction in rates, but there-is a very strong desire to have the postal service employed to better advantage. , Highly , Praised.- Forty-five marms and masters were here this week attending the quarterly ex amination, and everyone of them spoke in high terms of the nice appearance of goods shown in the hardware store of J.
