CHEATED FOR YEARS. Prejudice Will Cheat Us Often If We Let It. You will be astonished to find how Largely you are influenced In every way by unreasoning prejudice. In many cases you will also find that the prejudice has swindled you, or rather, made you swindle yourself.

TORY OF A BIBLE eirloom Which Caused a Feud in the Bilger Family. wnership of This 180.Year-Old Book Has Been in Bitter Dispute for a Century-Printed in German. Philadelphia, Pa.-The picture below :ows. a. 180-year-old family Bible, ie possession of which has been in ch bitter dispute for a century that veritable feud has been caused in 2e Bilger family of Selinsgrove, Pa.. nd the hostilities reached a degree of t iolence not long ago, when Frederick ilger ran away with the 56-pound t< ook, and thereby accomplished the ole purpose of a journey from his ! ome in Sioux City.

OW THEY MARRY FOR MONEY Different Prices Necessary to Get a Husband Among Certain Classes in New York. New York.-There are 5,000 Jewish marriage brokers in New York city and most of them make a good living in finding partners for the matri monially-incined. The price is going up all the while. The old scale no longer attracts young Hebrews to wedlock. One time $100 was consid ered a good bonus for a girl to pay for a husband; it has been going up until it is $500. Saloonkeeping ranks about the low est of all on the broker's list, yet, only a few days ago, a young man, two years out of Russia. an assistant bar eeper, refused even to look at a girl with $1,000. He expected $3,000. A medical school graduate will not marry unless $3,000 goes with the girl. An ordinary college graduate now demands $2,000. A medical, legal or dental beginner, with no prac tice at all, insists upon $3,000 in the marriage market, while one with an established professional business ex pects to receive anywhere from $6,000 to $25000 through the "schatchen." t is a mistake to assume that only the poor Hebrews arrange their mar riages on a business basis. The cus tom is general among all classes. All Owned by the Red Men. Muskogee, Okla.-The per capita wealth of the Indi'an is approximate ly $2,130. that for other Americans is only a little more than $1,i00.

The value of their agricultural lands runs up in the millions. The ranges which they possess support about 500.000 sheep and cattle, owned by lessees, bringing in a revenue of more than $272.000 to :he various tribes besides providing feed for more than 1.500,000 head of horses, cattle, heep and goats belonging to the In dians themselves.

In my work as a nurse, 1 any skin disease cases came under 2y observation, and in every In tance, I always recommended the uticura Remedies as they always ave entire satisfaction. One case in articular was that of a lady friend f mine who, when a child, was af icted with eczema which covered her ace and hands entirely, breaking out t intervals with severer torture. She old not go to school as the. disfigure ent looked terrible. I told her to get t once a set of Cuticura Remedies. .fter the use of only one set she was )erfectly well.

It made his arm as limber and nice, whereas it was quite stiff before I began to apply the Ointment. "Last May I had an ingrowing toe nail which was very painful,. as the side of the nail 'was edging right down in the side of my toe. I cut the nail out of the cavity it made, and of course applied the Cuticura Oint ment to the part affected. It soothed t and in less than ten nights it was all healed through constant use of the Ointment. Ten days ago I had my left hand and wrist burned with boil ng lard, and Cuticura Ointment has ompletely cured them. I have just -ecommended the Cuticura Remedies o another friend, and she is pleased with the results and is recovering nicely.
