THE MORNING ASTORLAN, ASTORIA, OREGON, FRIDAY, APRIL S, 1007. 6 CHILD ALMOST A SOLID SB From Skin Disease from Birth Until Six Years Old-Father Spent Fortune on Her Without Benefit Old Doctor Suggested Cuti cura, which Cured Her in Two Months, Leaving SKIN SOFT AS A BABY'S AND WITHOUT A SCAR "I have a cousin in Rockingham Ox who once had a skin disease from bet birth until she was six yean of age. Her father had spent a fortune on her to get her cured and none of the treat ment did her any good. Old Dr. G iufgested that he try the Cuticura Rem edies which he did. When he com menced to use it the child was almost in a olid scab. He had used it about two months and the child was well. I was there when they commenced to it your Cuticura Remedies. I stayed that week and then returned home and stayed two weeks and then went back and" stayed with them two weeks lontrer and when I went home I could hardly believe she was the same child. Her skin was as oft as a baby's without a scar on it. I have not seen her in seventeen years but I have heard from her and the" List time I beard from her she was well. That is where I became acquainted with Cuti cura. I hope this may be of some ser vice to you in the future. Mrs. V. P. Ingle, Burlington, N. C, June 16, 1905." WORLD'S EMOLLIENT Is Cuticura Ointment.

Oopyrliht, 1W. by Homer Spngus, "Really, Ellnabeth," protested Judge Ferris, "I thluk so much of you both I cant mix up In your trouble!" "That's why 1 came to you," argued Mrs. Bradbury. "You see, when one It married one ha one's favorite clergy' man, so when oue la unmarried why not one's pet lawyer? It seems kinder. "Kinder? (Solng to make It a func tion with caterers and flumadlddlesT demanded the Judtre. At least you will inform Ned of my decision." Ignoring the flippancy, Why. Bess, surely you've no grounds for a divorce. You can't wheedle your freedom out of a court because Ned perhaps forgot to give you violets ou your birthday or" "I have a reason." Icily. "Oh, hor exclaimed the Judge. "May I ask her name?" "It's an automobile!" explained Elis abeth. "I'm what is culled an 'automo bile widow.' " "A new one to me," commented the Jtidjre musingly. "We've quarreled ever since he bought that big circus chariot of his. I wanted horses Iuslefl I'm original ly from Kentucky, y.'u know, and I vowed Td never step foot In that car, and I haven't: He upends all his time In It, he says I'm unreasonable, and" Elisabeth broke down. "Proceed," prompted the jude. "The last two days he hasn't even gone through the formality of asking me to accompany hltv, though of course I wouldn't have gone! Yesterday he whined by with that blond Johnson girl and today with Mrs. Wheeler. However. I'm not Jmilous of a mere woman. It's the carr "Ned probably wa:Ted to show you If you wouldn't motor with him oth ers would," susseied the listener. "Shows how demoralising the craze Is," stormed Elisabeth. "Hecall the "OB, HO!" KXCLAIUEI THB JCIXiK. "MAI I ASK HEB HAHKr" fuss there was when women first took to cycling!' Well, since men have tak en to motoring the reformers ought" "You aspire to start a reform by making an example of Ned? Have you a photo all ready for the news papers 'f "I'm not seeking notoriety," she snap ped. "I simply want a nice quiet di vorce. I may as well be a grass wid ow as an automobile widow," "Come, Bess, you can't be serious. Go borne, but stop en route and buy some ripping motor togs. Get red silk to show you are enthusiastic anil theu" "I'm nnt here to consult you about toilets," she cut In. "I came to apply for a divorce. What's more fancy red with my hair!" "No Dm; dare call It anything but Titiau iu my presence! Hut, seriously, you will go home and make peace with Ned?" "If you wish to communicate with me further, I shall be at Clara Lin coln's, Good afternoon." She swept out and into the elevator. "But I mean business." "Bess will purchase motor togs yet"' smiled the Judge. "But I must give expert advice to Ned surely one's 'pet lawyer' can be 'kinder!' " .Mrs. Bradbury went directly to an attorney who knew neither her, elf nor her husband. She decided It poor pol icy to do husiness with friends. Young Lawyer Elkins, she found, had no scruples. "H,is the defendant any property we con7i attach'" asked the splinter of the bar potnpouKly. "1 wouldn't take a penny from him!" p'otested Elizabeth. "We could worry him a lot!" tempted the legal adviser, "Could I attach his automobile'" cried Elizabeth eagerly. "I shall get out the writ at once!" he said decisively. "1 suppose it Is a clever way for an automobile widow to avenge herself," sighed Elizabeth. Then briskly, "You will find the car at tho Westminster garage." Elizabeth went to Clara Lincoln's rejoicing at her coup d'etat, fllara. being of the MIsh llobbs type, con- granulated her ou her admirable spirit Clara was propping up the "admirable ' spirit" when Kltaabeth's lavryer called er to tht telephone. -Hello! Yes. this Is she. The car B not therst A sheriff and two detectives searching! My goodness, erery one lo town will hear about It! Necessary) Oh, very well.'" Later another call came. "Yes, Located the car at the Apple by Coach company? Bring It away at once- On the third floor? Well, bring It down the way It went up! Mnu re fuses to operate the elevator? Can't you force him to? Then get a trained elevator man, and I'll pay for his time. They refuse to allow tho elevator to be operatod--rldlculonsl Equipped with a writ to selie property, but balked because there's no law to force them to help you get It! Lawyer Elkins, are you there? Take It out a window; the wall must be full of windows. Win dows too small? Take the machlue apart. Gracious! Five hundred dollars to put It together again? You suggest leaving It there with a sheriff to guard It? Very well!" Elisabeth passed an unhappy ulght. What would Ned do? She speculated about the blond and Mrs. Wheeler and worried about the sheriff sitting nloue through the loug night on the third floor of the Appleby repository with Ned's big cream colored motor car shining like a ghost out of the gloom. She feared she was punishing the sher iff more than Ned. Next morning a strange lawyer call edNeil's lawyer! She shuddered. 'Mrs. Bradbury." began Lawyer Sny der, "how much will you take for your Interest In the car?" "It's tmt iiintu'.v I want," she ex plained loftily, "but the car." "This Is certainly the motoring sea son," tie agreed, "ami me dealers can 1 deliver a car under six weeks. That's why the other two ladies were so anx ious to secure this oue." 'What two ladles?" Elisabeth de manded. "Why, a few days ago Mr. Bradbury advertised his car for sale, and he gave demonstrations to two lady pros pects" The blond and Mm. a heeler!" gasp ed Elisabeth, light dawning. "He was selling to please me. What a mess 1 have made of everything!" "Any message to send my client V asked Suyder, rising. ( "Walt, please." eled Elizabeth wild ly. "I'm going dowu to .Mr. Bradbury's office myself. 1 here's really nothing more you can do ou the case." Elizabeth was smiling on the lawyer recklessly. "May I bike you down in my auto mobile?" be suggested. "Oh, would you?" she asked gayly. "Automobiles go so delightfully quick! But pardon me a moment. Hello, ecu trnl! Give me .Vnni Blue. Is that Judge Ferris? O-o-h, Dicky. I thought you'd be relieved to know I've decided on the color for my motor outfit Bed may denote enthusiasm, but gray Is much more serviceable, and, you know, Ned has talked of some long trips. Be sides, gray Is so harmonious with Ti tian tresses. That's all. What? Ned there? How lovely! I'll be right down." When tht Spider Got Courting. "The male spider Is the bravest and most demonstrative of all lovers." says a naturalist. "He approaches the fe male, runs round her a few times In little circles and then begins a violent oriental dance. He twirls round and round. Drawing In bis legs, he writhes and crawls, serpentlike, along the ground. Straightening bis legs and erecting bis body, be towers above the lady grandly. And the mischief of It Is that the female spider is always stronger than the male and when his dance Is done she either accepts him for her mate or else, falling upon him fiercely, she tears him to pieces. Im agine a human lover trying to please bis mistress with the knowledge In bis heart that, if he failed, he would be murdered. His efforts would be luke warm and distrait, eh Yet the humble spider, whom we ure accustomed to de spise, dances, death staring him In tho face, with a gayety, a warmth and au abandon seldom to Ik: met with north of Africa." Scotch Dialects, The written lungunge Is so far from the spoken In Scotland that spellliiK reform Is au academic mestlou. A story which lllustrnteri the many dia lects is told of an examination at Aber deen university. The examiners were an Emjllsh elerymaii and a lowland Scotchman. The master of the schol ars put many questions to them whicn were admirably answered. The boys brought the Israelite out of Egypt with a simple (lireetnesw which Moses would have envied. Then tho clergy man aalied, "How did Pharaoh die?" The boy sat dumb. The lowlander, to make it more plain, repeated the question, ' H')o did i'huwruoh dee?" Again there was a dead silence. Next the master himself took the matter in hand "Fat cam' to I'hawntoh nt his hinder end?" The boys answered an with one voice, "lie wm drooued!" To "doe" means in the Aberdeen dialect to die In one's bed, These careful scholars knew that 1'haruoh had not "deed." Yes, I Hav Found it at Last. Found what,? Why that Chamber lain's Halve cures Eczema and all man ner of itching of the skin.
