ELGIN", ILL?In a very recent communication
from this place corhes the news
that Mr. Arthur Ernest Kidd, a wellknown
architect of that city, has made
complete recovery from catarrh of the
head, from -which he had suffered for
nearly a quarter of a century. He writes
from 18 Hamilton ave.:
"I am 42 years of age, and havo had catarrh
of the head for over half of my life, as
a result of scarlet fever, followed by
typhoid fever. I got so bad that I was almost
constantly coughing and clearing my
throat. The catarrh greatly impaired my
eyesight, and the iicaripg in one car, and
reduced my -weight to 110 pounds.
"1 tried nearly every catarrh remedy advertised,
besides a great many different
physicians' treatments, all of which failed
"I had heard and read of Pcruna, and
finally decided to try it two months ago.

Found Dead and Fined.
From an American traveller lately
returned from Mexico comes the fol
lowing wonderful and veracious story
of Mexican justice:
"I went to the land of the Monte- !
zumas a few years ago for my health,"
said the returned traveller, "and was
staying in a little town not very far I
from the Texas border. One morning
the corpse of a cowboy was found in
- the bushes in the outskirts of the vil- i
lage. It seems he had come over from
the other side 'of the Rio Grande to '
attend a fandango. He indulged a lit- 1
tie too freely in julque while at the
dance, and doubtless excited the jeal- 1
cusy of some hot headed Mexican be- '
cause of too much attention paid to a
dark eyed senorita. At least, that 1
was the theory of the killing, because 1
- a bag of money amounting to $300,
all in gold, was found on the body,
proving that the murder' had not been '
done for robbery. Besides the coin 1
a costly, very costly, slxshooter, sil
ver mounted and ivory handled, was J
strapped around the deceased. The
finding of the gun was the occasion 1
of a trial before the local alcalde, or (
justice of the peace. It was against '
the law to carry weapons, and the 1
dead man was fined $300, just the ^
sum they found on him, for violating
- the Mexican statute.?New York Tri. '

SEXATOIt SPKOUL, of Delaware
County, has boon putting
to good use the interval of
legislative inactivity in Pennsylvania
by preparing a good roads
Dill for later consideration. lie proposes
to put public road building in the
State under the control of a State
Highway Commission, to consist of
three men, who shall appoint a Slate
Highway Engineer with supervisory
powers. The State is to appropriate
?1,000,000 annually: the Highway Department
is to contribute and require
scientific methods of construction, and
whatever amount may ho expended in j
any township is to be borne in equal j
proportions by the township, the county
and the Stale. This would necossilate
a yearly expenditure of .$3,000,000

Dthor suitable provisions for adjusting

The object of tills bill is altogether
meritorious. It would be bettered,
however, by wedhig out of it the opportunity
for political engineering. It
would be au Improvement, for example.
if the three State Highway Commissioners
should all be competent
engineers, mid if the counties of the
State should be so divided as to give
them all a field of jurisdiction and
employment. This would make it unnecessary
to appoint another man to do
the work while the three Coinissloners
should lock on,and would secure cumulative
official service.
Three million dollars could hardly bo
spent to better advantage in Pennsylvania
than In building good roads.
Money so used would bring instaut advantage
to the tax-paying contributor.
It would so cheapen transportation as
to add to the profit of production, and
so contribute to the comfort of movement
as to add length of life and happiness
to living.
Senator Sproul is on the right track

the money contributed shall go straight

Good Roads in Politics.
The good roads movement has made
such progress in New York State and
has won the approval of the people so
thoroughly that there is a constant
rivalry between the Republican and
Democratic parties in that State as to
which shall present the most satisfactory
good roads plank in its plat
form. This zeal for good roads does
not die with the election. New York
State has a very good roads law,
though doubtless, as the Democrats
claim, it is open to improvement, so as
to give more good roads.
The criticism is made that the Improved
roads in New York State are
too much in unconnnected sections.
They are not continuous, so that in
traveling considerable distances the
enjoyment of the hard bottomed improved
roads is marred by the necessity
of traversing occasional sections
Ol the old stye road of dust or mud.
it is a happy condition when there is
ao longer the need of a demand for the
construction of good roads generally,
but merely the complaint that 'there
.ire gays remaining of the old discredited
dirt roads.
Good roads halt in Pennsylvaijia^J&ft~
Jemand being met_ h$- tt^Iaw full of
promises, whigi*^ being unsupported
by appst)Y)rTations, have never been
realized in performance. New York,
5?gw Jersey and Massachusetts are
each making progress in road reconstruction,
while Pennsylvania stands
still. Perhaps when good roads are
made a party Issue, as in New York,
something will be done. We have had
road commissions and legislation on
the subject. The opposition to road
improvement on account of its supposed
cost has about died out. But the

Pennsylvania on a large scale lias not
yet commenced.
Philadelphia in its suburbs and two
9f its adjoining townships have some
Improved roads of the first quality.
They show what good roads are and
what they can do for a neighborhood.
It is possible, however, that for this
State good roads must wait until the
politicians see that there ore votes
to be had here for good roads as well
as in New York State.?Philadelphia
Press.
A Good Omen.
Perhaps it is a good omen that the
first bill introduced in the House of
Representatives was one to appropriate
money for the establishment in the Department
of Agriculture of a bureau of
good roads. Good roads would do good
to all men. The United States, instead
of having the worst roads within the
limits of civilization, should have the
best. It is a curious contradiction that
Americans insist on fast railroad trains,
fast ships, fast mails, fast horses and
fast autos, but also apparently insist
on slow roads. As a city should have
good streets, so should the country
have good roads. Roads heavy with
mud or dust or rough with ruts and
hills are not only an evidence of unthrift,
but a bar to progress. Ruts aud
hills are almost as much of a check on
intercourse as tollgates.
But the good roads movement has
struck deep la men's minds, find will j
grow till bud roads shall have hcen
made good. Good roads are a paying
investment. They promote neighborhood
intercourse, bring the school,
church and farm house nearer to each
other, reduce the distance between the
market and the farm, increase the longevity
of wagons and economize liorre
power.
A Trolley Car J?pi$ode.
The rain was coming down in torrents
and the car was crowded. Al

ing old fellow got in, holding an urn
brella that was shedding torrents ot
its own.
Glaring angrily about, as if he
thought somebody ought to get up ami
offer him ft scat, lie finally planted
himself before a meek looking woman,
who was making herself as small as
possible in a little corner by the door,
and placed the ferule of his streaming
umbrella 011 one of her feet.
The woman looked up at him in a
sort of gentle dismay, but he stared
straight above his head, still with the
sour and angry look on his lace. Presently
she said:
"Would you be kind enough, sir, to
move your umbrella to my other foot
so that I may empty my rubber shoe?"
Half a dozen passengers heard her,
and their laugh increased to a roar as
the man lowered his head and went
hastily out to the rear platform.?Phil- i

RUtory as It Has Sometimes Itcen Mad
by Wits?Russian General's Grim Jest.
In the year 1070 the Danes made a
descent on Hamburg, then, as now,
the great seaport of the (Herman confederacy.
But the good people of
Hamburg had had warning of the contemplated
attack. They were ready,
and the Danish soldiers met with so
hot a reception that they were only
too glad to take a hurried departure,
leaving many of their number dead
and dyintr behind them as a result of
the conflict.
The Hamburgers struck a coin to
commemorate tin4 event, and one of
these coins has lately been sold among
a collection which belonged to a deceased
collector in Berlin. On one
side are these words: "The King of
Denmark has been to Hamburg. If

On the outside wall is a rude
carving of a man armed with a heavy
hatchet. Underneath are these words:
"He who gives away all before he is
dead, let him take up this hatchet and
chop off his head." A former inhabitant
of the town was the builder of
these almshouses, and so charitable
was he that at the age of about sixty
ended his days in the very almshouse
he himself had built, and before he
died he requested that this amusing

Distrust of Left-Handed Carbcrs.
"1 have struck all kinds of barbers ir
my trips about the country," said the
man "who travels, "but the one kinc
that always makes me feel as if I was
balanced on the very brink of eternity
is the left-handed barber. I have been
5haved?by several of their class in the
past year. They have been good barbers,
too, every one of them, but no
i matter how well they knew their busi;
uess they always gave me a bad turn,
and every time they drew the razor
across my face I felt as if life and I
were about ready to part company.
Of course it is foolish, but nowadays
when I find myself assigned to a lefthanded
barber I leave tbc shop on
some pretext or other and go elseI
where to be beautified. Other men
I whom I have sounded on the subject
I have confessed to the same weakness,
and women have told me that they
have a like unexplainable dread of lefthanded
hairdressers. In the dressmaking
business, too, I am told, a lefthanded
cutter and fitter is pretty sure
to give the customer a crop of goose
flesh, while even a harmless occupation
like manicuring can always be relied
on to produce real shivers if pursued
by a person whose cleverness lies

Finally the colt threw the man over

ground without injury; but the man.

There was another struggle, which

MARRIAGE AND INSURANCE.
"Wife" Includes a Second Wife
In Life Policies.
Probably few persons will dispute
the proposition that in common parlance
if a married man speaks of his
wife he intonds to refer to her who
ia his wife at that time, and does not
contemplate her death and a second
wife, whom he may subsequently
marry. But suppose a married man
effects a policy of insurance on his
own life under the Married Women's
Property Act, 13S2, "for the bencOt
of his wife and childlren," and after
his then wife's death the assured mairios
again and has a second family.
Will the second wife and her chi'dren
be entitled upon the death of the husband
to share in the pohcy moneys?
This was the question before Mr. Justice
Kekewich in a case at the end of
last week, and he held that the second
wife and her children are entitled
to share. The decision appears | i
to be In accordance with good sense j
as well as law. As the learned judge j i
observed in giving judgment, the presumption
that when a married man
speaks of his wifo he intends his wife
at the time loses weight when an in- j i
strument like a policy of insurance; |
which is intended to make provision j i
for a wife and children after the bus- J
band's death, has to he construed. The
husband in all probability intends to
provide for those 'vrho survive him, i
and for that reason stand in need of \
the provision; and this conclusion is 1
strengthened by the reflection that as |
he cannot reasonably be supposed 1
to have intended to benefit only the ,
children living at the date of the policy 1
to the exclusion of after-born children (
.of the then existing wife, there ap- 1
pears to be no good rason why the i
children by the second wife and the 1
second wife herself should not also i
share. There is no reason why the 1
trust in favor of the wife and children i
which the act of 1882. mentioned above
creates, should not include objects as
ret unascertained. Upon these grounds
it was held that by "wife and children"
the husband intended his surviving
wife (if any) and his surviving
children, whether by his then living
or any after-taken wife.?^London Telegraph.

Tears Up the Street. J
A track-breaking machine is used ; 1
for tearing up old street railway ,
tracks, says the Engineering News. '
The machine resembles a box car, t
with two heavy iron arms projecting 1
in front and extending toward the ]
ground. A heavy chain along each
arm passes over a sheave at the end,
and has strong hooks by which the 1
chain is attached to the rail. ' When '
the chains are hauled in by the wind- (
ing engine on the car the track is torn
up bodily, ties and paving being so J
loosened that they are easily removed. ,
The machine has greatly facilitated i
the work of tearing up old cable rail- 1
way tracks, embedded in concrete, as !
without it the breaking up of concrete i
by picks and sledges would have been i
very tedious. Where these tracks
have been torn up cross trenches
roughly made for wooden ties, leaytng
the large mass of old undisturtjeff concrete
between. Heavy girdej/rails are
spiked to the ties, llnecl/crp by means
of a transit, and concrete is then rammed

Ancient and Modern 1
Time and Disease t
of Beauty. What I
to Restore the Lil
Socrates called beauty a short-lived
tyranny, Plato a privilege of nature,
Theocritus a delightful prejudice,
Thcophrastus a silent cheat, Carneadcs
a solitary kingdom, Homer a glorious
gift of nature, Ovid a favor of the
gods. Aristotle affirmed that beauty
was better than all the letters of recora.^aegdafcion
in the world, aDd yet none
oftBsstrdiatingulsbed authorities has
left us even aifmt ofjhow beauty is to
be perpetuated, or tbel-Hva>Wr-of age
and disease defied. Time soon bletrds- "
the lily and the rose into the pallor of
age, disease dots the fair face with
cutaneous disfigurations and crimsons
the Roman nose with unsightly flushes,
moth, if not rust, corrupts the glory
of eyes, teeth, and lips yet beautiful by
defacing the complexion, and fills the
sensitive soul with agony unspeakable.
If such be the unhappy condition of
one afflicted with slight skin blemishes,
what must be the feelings of those in
whom torturing 'humors have for
years run riot, covering the skin with
scales and sores and charging the
blood with poisonous elements to
become a part of the system until
death? It is vain to attempt to portray
such suffering. Death in many
cases might be considered a blessing.
The blood and fluids seem to be impregnated
with a fiery element which,
when discharged through the pores
upon the surface of the body, inflames
and burns until, in lfls efforts for relief,
the patient tears the skin with'his
nails, and not until the blood flows
does sufficient relief come to cause him
tojiesist.
Thus do compiexionai aeiecis merge
Into torturing disease, and piqued vanity
give place to real suffering. A
little wart on the nose or cheek grows
to the all-devouring lupus, a patch of
tetter on the palm of the hand or on
the limbs suddenly envelops the body
in its fiery embrace, a bruise on the leg
expands into a gnawing ulcer, which
reaches out its fangs to the sufferer's
heart in every paroxysm of pain, a
small kernel in the neck multiplies into
a dozen, which eat away the vitality,
great pearl-like scales grow from little
rash-like inflammations in such abundance
as to pass credulity; aud so on
may we depict the sufferings to which
poor human nature is subject, all of
which involve great mental distress
because of personal disfigurations.
If there were not another external
disease known, eczema alone would be
a sufficient infliction on mankind. It
pervades all classes, and descends impartially
through generations. While
some arc constantly enveloped in it,
others have it confined to small
patches in the ears, oa the scalp, on
the breast, on the palms of the hands,
on the limbs, etc., but everywhere its
distinctive feature is a small watery
blister, which discharges an acrid
fluid, causing heat, Inflammation, and
intense itching. Ring-worm, tetter,
scallcd head, dandruff, belong to this
scaly aud itching order of diseases.

petigo, barber's itch, erysipelas, and a
score of minor disorders make up in
part the catalogue of external diseases
of the skin. Thus far we have made
no allusion to those afflictions which
are manifestly impurities of the blood,
viz.: swelling of the glands of the
throat, ulcers on the neck and limbs,
tumors, abscesses, and mercurial
poisons, with loss of hair, because
the whole list can be comprehended in
the one word scrofula.
It is in the treatment of torturing,
disfiguring humors and affections of
the skin, scalp, and blood, with loss of
hair, that the Cutlcnra remedies have
achieved their greatest succes# Original
in composition, scientifically compounded,
absolutely pures unchangeable
in any climate, always ready, and agreeable
to the most del icate and sensitive,
they present to young and old the most
successful curative of modem times.
This will be considc ed strong langnage
by those acquainted with the character
and obstinacy of blood and skin humors
but it is justified by innumerable successes
where all the remedies and methods
in vogue have failed to cure, and,
in many cases, to relieve, even.
The Cuticura treatment is at once
agreeable, speedy, economical, and
comprehensive. Bathe the affected
parts freely with hot water and Cuticura
soap, to cleanse the sur ace of
crusts and scales, and soften the

to allay Itching, irritation, and in flam- ' *v

cleanse the blood. Tills treatment affords
instant relief, permits rest and
sleep in the severest forms of eczema r~W&
and other itching, burning, and scaly
humors, and points to-a speedy, perma

Cuticura Soap contains in a modified '
form the medicinal properties of Cutt- y fsB#
cura Ointment, tlie great skin cure and
- purest and sweetest of emollients, com- I ^
bir.ed with the most delicate and re- .
freshing of flower odors. It purifies
and invigorates the pores of the skin, . ^
and imparts activity to the oil glands ' ^'Mb
and tubes, thus" furnfsbing an outlet $||

iUlilUg Ililil) auu uaujr iusucdi a.to ^wutie
and continuous action on thenatnral ^
lubricators of the skin keeps the latter ^^0
transparent, soft, flexible, and healthy.
Hence its constant use, assisted by an
occasional nse of Cotichra Ointment, J si
realizes the fairest complexion, the.
softest, whitest hands, and the most
luxuriant, glossy hair within the do- ;<V;
main of the most advanced scientific
knowledge to supply. " %
Cuticnra Ointment is the most sue- fM
cessful external curative for torturing,
disfiguring humors of the skin and v
scalp, including loss of hair, in proof <
of which a single anointing with it, .
preceded by a hot bath with Cuticnra
Soap, and followed in the severer cases . ??
by a full dose of Cuticnra Resolvent, is , .
sufficient to afford immediate relief in Cpl
the u .st distressing forms of itching,
burning, and scaly humors, permit rest v f J
and sleep, and point to a speedy cure
when all other remedies fail. It is espe- r>^r
cially so in the treatment of infants
and children, cleansing, soothing, and
healing the most distressing of infantile
humors, and preserving, purifying,
and beautifying the skin, scalp, ami .
hair.
Cuticnra Ointment possesses, at the %
same time, the charm of satisfying ^
the simple wants of the toilet of ail >ages,
in caring for the skin,i scalp,
hair, and hands far more effectually,
agreeably, and economically than the *
most expensive of toilet emollients, %
while free from every ingredient of a s
doubtful or dangerous character. Its
" One Night Treatment of the Hands,'
or 44 Single Treatment of the Hair," or
nse after athletics, cycling, golf, tennis,
riding, sparring, or any sport, each
in connection with the nse of Cuticnra 4
Soap, is sufficient evidence of this. 'M
Of all remedies for the purification .
of the blood and circulating fluids, none
approaches in specific medical action
Cuticura Resolvent. It neutralizes and
resolves away (hence its name) scrcfnt**1%fa/1

the blood, which give rise to swellings
of the glands, pains In the bones, and * , t?
torturing, disfiguring eruptions of the
skin and scalp, with loss of hair.
Cuticura Resolvent extends its purifying
influence by means of the pores
to the surface of the skio? allaying
irritation, inflammation, itching, and
burning, and soothing and healing. * %
Hence its success in the treatment of v:
distressing hnmor3 of the skin, scalp,
and blood, with loss of hair, which fail
to be permanently cured by external . "J
remedies alone.
The grandest testimonial that can ' :j
be offered Cuticura remedies is their -:.v:
world-wide sale, due to the personal "/
recommendations of those who have
used them. It is difficult to realize the
mighty growth of the business done
under this name. From a small beginning
in the simplest form, against prejudice
and opposition, against monied
hosts, countless rivals, and trade indifference,
Cuticura remedies have be- ^
come the greatest curatives of their
time, and, In fact, of all time,~forTRjC
where in the history of medicine is } \ 4
to be found another approaching them V r*m
in popularity and sale. In every clime Z
and with every people they have met )
with the same reception. The confines %
of the earth are the only limits to their \
growth. They have conquered the ,
world.
