Aa an infant I noticed on . u j 1. rwl P' and treated same wiln different remedies for about five years, but when the spot began to get larger I put him under the care of doctors. Unclor their treatment the disease spread to four different parts of his body. The longer tha doctors treated him tho wprse it grew. During the day it would get rough and form like scales. At night it would be cracked, inflamed, and badly swollen, SJu i"!T',bl.e b;irning and itching. When I think of his suffering, it nearly breaks my heart. His screams could be heard down-stairs. The suffering of my son made me full of misery, I had no ambition to work, to eat, nor Could I sleep. "One doctor told me that my son's ozema was incurable, and gave it up for a bad Job. One evening I saw an jrticJe in the paper about the wonderful Cuticura and derided to give It a trial. "I tell you that Cuticura Ointment Is worth its weight in gold, and when I had used the first box of Ointment there as a great improvement, and by the time I had used the second set of Cuti cura Soap. Cuticura Ointment, and Cuti cura Resolvent my child was cured. He is now twelve years old, and his skin is as tine and smooth as silk. Michael Hteln toan, 7 Sumner Avenue, Brooklyn. K.

SEVEN STATES TO TOGETHER NOHTIIWEST rtAIIiWAY COMMISSIONS TO UNITE. .Meeting of Oregon, Washington and Montana Commlsfllona Invites the CoiihiiIkhIoiib of North and South Dakota, Minnesota and Wisconsin to Unite In a Combination to Secure Uniform Ilulcs and Practices An other Meeting In July at Seattle. If a combination of railroads ,ls beneficial' to the railroads, a com bination of railroad commissions should be beneficial to ftie commis sions and the people which they rep resent, and so with this In view, the three railroad commissions of the northwest states Oregon, Washing ton and Montana, have formed a com bination and will Invite Into it the railroad commissions of North and South Dakota, Minnesota and Wiscon sin. This will give the country a com bination of railroad commissions, as well as a pool of railroads from St. Paul to the Pacific coast and It Is hoped by the commissions to be able to do effective work In this way. Uniform rules, uniform rates, uni form practices In all the northwest states will be adopted as far as possi ble and the business of regulating rates by state commissions will be re duced to the same degree of skill as obtains In the art at making rates by railroads. A meeting of the Oregon, Washing ton and Montana commissions held at Portland this week brought out the proposed organization of the various commissions through the northwest stntes and another meeting will be held In Seattle In July at whach time It Is hoped to secure the co-operation of South and North Dakota, Minne sota and Wisconsin, So far the three commissions of the northwest, Oregon, Washington and Montana, are working closely together. Conditions existing In these three states being practically Identical, mak ing co-operation necessary and easy. Practically the name lines of road are found In all the states except that the O. R. & N. Is not operated In Montana nor the Great Northern In Oregon, but conditions and traffic questions are Identical and It Is hoped by the commissions to secure excellent results from a close combination and uniformity of action. Washington being the first of the states to elect a permanent commis sion. Is taken largely as a criterion, except in cases where the Washington commission finds Its own regulations and laws lame.

SUITS ANY MAN When '5 Forty years ago Washington was a hotbed for gamblers of low and high degree, and there were gambling houses on every block from the capltol to the White House, says a Washing ton correspondent. There were a dozen faro banks on the avenue near Sixth street, and many of these houses had club rooms attached, where con gressmen and others could be to themselves. The last of these gambl ing houses was broken up in 1870, when Joe Hall's place was closed by the marshal. It was the last of the great gambling saloons, and after It was closed Hal began to slide down hill rapidly and died a pauper. While there is not now a gambling house In Washington, there Is still some betting, of course. Some sena tors and a good many representatives manage to get up some pretty stiff games In their private homes, but the stakes are as nothing compared to those wagered when Washington was a wide-open town and the sports were left unmolested. Gambling, and for large sums,s was common In those days, and especially among southern em and western members. Scores of them squandered their modest per diem (then $8 only) at the gaming tables, and some Impair ed their private fortunes by the same indulgence. The most notorious and dashing gambler of the day was Ed ward Pendleton. He came from Vir ginia, where he was well connected, and married a most accomplished young woman of this city, whose fath er had a responsible position under the government. At his club house Pendleton gave sumptuous entertainments which were attended by the most eminent public men of the day. Mr. Mangum, then president of the senate; John C. Crit tenden John M. Botts, John B. Thompson of Kentucky, and Lynn Boyd, afterwards speaker of the house, and others of lesser note, were fre quently his guests. Congress had enacted strong penal laws to prevent gambling, but they were a dead letter unless some poor devil made a complaint of foul play, or some fleeced blackleg sought ven geance through the aid of the grand Jury, and then the matter was usually compounded, by the payment of money. It was In Pendleton's place that 8.' S. Prentiss, then a whig representative in congress from Mississippi, and In the ztnlth of his fame, lost his for tune In a single night at faro. At one time during the great game Pren tiss was (45,000 ahead, but at day light his winnings and 840,000 were gone. He deeded Pendleton three warehouses in Vlcksburg to cover a debt of 836,000 which he owed the bank. An old gambler In Washing ton who witnessed the game, says it was perhaps the heaviest stakes ever put up In a gambling house in this city. niTON WE HAVE 300 MEN'S SUITS-each and all elegant offerings that we will exchange with you for only $10.

Mr. Clay, General Scott, Mr. Bodisco, and Mr. Fox, who represented William IV. and Queen Victoria, often played together, a hundred dollars being the usual stake. They generally played well as Hoyle taught the game. There j were always Inveterate whlsters In the senate. There Is a story of a protract ed sitting at the card table, at which Governor Stokes, of North Carolina, and Mountjoy Bailey, sergeant-at-arms of the senate, were two of the players. It ran In this wise: The senate had adjourned from Thursday over to Monday. The party sat down at cards Thurs day evening. They played all night and all the next day, only stopping occasionally for refreshments. The game was continued Friday night and Saturday, through Saturday night and all day Sunday and Sunday night, the players resting for a snatch of sleep as nature became exhausted. Mon day morning the game awas In full blast; but at 10 o'clock Bailey moved an adjournment, alleging that his of-. ficlal duties required his presence In the senate chamber. Stokes resisted and rose from the table. The gover nor grumbled and scolded, but finally gave It up. STATE OF OHIO. ) CITY OP TOLKDO las. LUCAS COUNTY. 1 Frank J.
