That our American forests abound in f,
plants which possess tho most valuable j'
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores of the most eminent medical
writers And teachers. Ever* the untutored
Indians had discovered the usefulness
of many native plants before the
advent of the white race. This information,
imparted freely to the whites, led i
the latter to continue investigations until ;
to-day we have a rich assortment of most 1 :
valuable American medicinal roots.

Dr. Pierce believes that our American for- i

DISFIGURING SKIN HUMOR.
Impossible to Get Employment, as Face

?Cured by Cutlcura.
"Since the year 1894 1 have been troubled
with a very bad case of eczema which
I have spent hundreds of dollars trying to
cure, and 1 went to the hospital, but they
failed to cure me, and it was getting worse
all the time. Five weeks ago my wife
bought a box of Cuticura Ointment and
one cake of Cuticura Soap, and 1 am
pleased to say that I am now completely
cured and well. It was impossible for me
to get employment, as my face, head and
body were covered with it. The eczema
first appeared on the top of my head,
and it had worked all the way around
down the back of my neck and around to
my throat, down my body and around the
hips. It itched so I would be obliged to
scratch it, and the flesh was raw. I am
now all well, and I will be pleased to recommend
the Cuticura Remedies to all persons
who wish a speedy and permanent
cure of skin diseases. Thomas M. Rossiter,

Archer smiled at the fire. "Any

His guest shook his head and hid
his face behind the upturned mug.
"Not much," he replied, presently.
He drew his sleeve across his
mouth, and then produced a clay
pipe from a pocket in his shirt.
"Tobac?" he inquired.
Archer passed him a dark and
heavy plug of tobacco.
"Knife?" queried Sacobie.
"Try your own knife on it," answered
Archer, grinning.
With a sigh Sacobie produced his
sheathknife.

The two men talked for hours.
Sacobie Bear was a great gossip for
one of his race. In faet, he had a
Micmac nickname which ^translated,
meant "the man who deafens his
friends with much talk." Archer,
| however, was pleased with his ready
chatter and unforced humor.
I But at last they both began to nod.
The white man made up a bed on the
floor for Sacobie with a couple of
caribou skins and a heavy blanket.
Ill the Merry
i
HOW THE CHRISTMAS PUD!
Then he gathered together a fe^1
plugs of tobacco, some tea, flour and
dried fish.
Sacobie watched him with freshly
aroused interest.
"More tobac, please," he said;
"Squaw, he smoke, too."
Archer added a couple of sticks of
! the black leaf to the pile.
"Bacum, too," said the Micmac.
"Bacum better nor fish, anyhow."
t Archer shook his head.
"You'll have to do with the fish,"
he replied; "but I'll give you a tin of
"condensed milk for the papoose."
"Ah! ah! Him . good stuff!" exclaimed.
Sacobie.
Archer considered the provisions
for a second or two.
Then, going over to a dunnage bag
near his bunk, he pulled its contents
about until he found a bright red
silk handkerchief and a red flannel
shirt. Their color was too gaudy for
his taste. "These things are for your
squaw," he said.

stood It in the corner, beside his
guest's rifle.
"Now you had better turn in," he
said, and blew out the light.
In ten minutes both men slept the
sleep of the weary. The fire, a great
mass of red coals, faded and flushed
like some fabulous jewel. The wind
washed over the cabin and fingered
the eaves, and brushed furtive hands
against the door.
It was dawn when Archer awoke.
He sat up in his bunk and looked
about the quiet, gray-lfghted room.
Sacobie Bear was nowhere to be seen.
He glanced at the corner by the
door. Rifle and pack were both gone.
He looked up at the rafter, where his
slab of bacon was always hung. It,
too, was gone!
He jumped out of his bunk and
ran to the door. Opening it, he

looked out. Not a breath of air
stirred. In the east, saffron and
scarlet, broke the Christmas, morning,
and blue on the white surface
of the world lay the imprints of Sacobie's
round snow-shoes.
For a long time the trapper stood
in ihe doorway in silence, looking
out at the stillness and beauty.
"Poor Sacobie!" he said, after a >
while. "Well, he's welcome to the
bacon, even if it id all I had."
He turned tft light the fire and prepare
