CU KIM IT CITKJLSSION Young Woman Found in Awful Con dition with Scabies Body a Mass of Sores from Scratching Tried Many Remedies for Seven Weeks Result Was Discouraging, But ITCHING TORTURES YIELDED TO CUTICURA "While I was doing missionary work In the lower portion of several cities I found It necessary to know a little of the efficacy of a few medicines and after a while I found that a little knowl edge of Cuticura was about all I needed. One of the very bad cases I had to deal with was that of a young woman who had come to us not only broken la spirit but In a most awful condition physically. Our doctor examined her anil told us that she had scabies (the Itch), Incipient paresis, rheumatism, etc., brought on from exposure and the effects of her ragged-edged life. Her poor body was a mass of sores from scratching and she was not able to retain solid food. Wo tried many things, a good tonic was prescriled and baths with a nibbing of lard and sulphur. We worked hard for seven weeks and you can Imagine how discouraged we were when, after all that time, we could see go little improvement. One day I hap pened to see a Cuticura advertisement telling how a little baby had been cured of a bad case of skin eruption, and although I had but ninety-seven cents with me, I bought a cake of Cuti cura Soap and a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent. When I reached home I was like a child with a new toy, and we bathed our patient well and gave her a full dose of the Uesolvent. She Blept that night better than she had since she had been with us and the next day I located the price of a box of Cuticura Ointment. I am not exaggerating when I say that ia exactly five weeks this young woman was able to look for a position, being strong enough to work and full of ambition. In another month she left the home, and now has a good position In a nice family where she Is respected and is strong and well. You may refer any one you wish to me, personally.

TRACTION FREIGHT TRAIN. Steam Road Engines May Bo Used to Haul Freight Into Interior. P. E. Weston, an expert sent to this place by the Holt Manufacturing Co. f Stockton, Calif, to pass upon the practicability of the traction freight ng project between this place" and Shaniko, returned to Stockton the last f the week, says the Madras Pioneer. While here he made a thorough xamlnation of the roads bctweken hanlko and Madras, and before leav- ig stated that within a week the company would definitely announce their decision on making a second rial trip out of Shaniko with a big freight train. Mr. L. B. Lnfollette of Prlnevllle, one of tho promoters of tho enter prise, accompanied Mr. Weston on his Ips over the road, and It Is generally elleved here that a favorable report 111 be made by him. Should tho traction freighting pro-. ct be revived Mr. Lnfollette will ave charge of the enterprise, with tfic backlag of the Holt Manufactur- ng company. They are anxious to make a success of the big road train ecauso of the prestige It will give he machinery of their manufacture, nd for the further reason that If the enterprise can once be successfully Hunched, Central Oregon contains onderful possibilities for the exten- 011 of thtflr business. Returning from Malheur county, Dr. V. H. Lytic, state sheep Inspec tor, brought with him several speci mens of the poisonous camas root that has been raising havoc among Malhuur county sheep. The weed Is very similar In form to an onion, bui It has a wellowish hue. It grows in high altitudes, never being found at u height of less than 4 000 feet and It has been spreading to a considerable extent In Malheur county. According to Dr. Lytle, it is Im possible to make any efectlve fight against the weed, but there Is an an t'dote which he has advised stockmen to use In cases where sheep, cattle or horses have been poisoned by eating camas. For sheep the antidote con sists of from five to seven grains of potassium permangenate dissolved In four ounces of water. In a certain section of Wyoming the poison camas has become so prevalent that sheepralsers have ben foiced to tibandon the ranges of that' particular Section.
