IT A PART
CLEAR SKI
On Baby's Face, Head and Shoulders.
Parents Decided He Could Not be
Cured. Cuticura Remedies Made
His Skin Perfectly Clear.
Our bov was born in Toronto on Oct. 13, 1908, and when
three months old a slight rash appeared on his cheek. What
appeared to be a water blister would form. When it broke,
matter would run out, starting new blisters until his entire
face, head and shoulders were a mass of scabs and you could
not see a particle of clear skin. Other parts of his body were
- affected, but not to such an extent. We did not know what
tp do for him and tried about every advertised remedy without
avail, indeed some of them only added to his suffering and
" one in particular, the Remedy, almost put the infant
into convulsions. The family doctor prescribed for him and
told us to bathe the baby in buttermilk. This did not do any
good, so we took him to a hospital. He was treated as an
out-patient twice a week and he got worse, if anything. We '
then called in another doctor and inside of a week the boy was,
to all appearances, cured and the doctor said his work was
done. But the very next day, it broke oat as bad as ever.
We decided that it could not be cured and must run its
course and so we jus kept his arms bandaged to his side to
prevent his tearing his flesh. We left Toronto and shortly
'ajfter our arrival in Duluth, the Cuticura Remedies were
Recommended.. We started using them in May, 1909, and
JT-vjoon the cure was complete. At the time of writing you
;would not think he was the same child for Cuticura made
f his skin perfectly clear and he is entirely free from the skin,
i . f disease. There has been no return this time. We still use
- only Cuticura Soap for baby's bath.

Congrcn To Reapportion H.m Mem
ber. Under 1910 Cental.
Washington Dispatch, 16th.
One of the most important tasks
confronting the short session of Con
gress when it meets in December will
be the enactment of a reapportionment
act, fixing the ratio of representation
in Congress for a decade on tbe basis
of the Thirteenth Census. This vat
ter will be settled by the Republican
majority of the present Congress, and
the leaders already are figuring out
the political advantage to be gained.
Under tbe Constitution each State
is entitled to two Senators. This re
mains fixed, bat representation in the
popular branch must be changed
every 10 year3. The electoral vote,
by which Presidents are chosen, is
based on the total representation in
both branches ot Congress, so the
ratio fixed this winter will have an
important bearing upon Presidential
contests after 1912.
No change will be made in ithe
Electoral College of that campaign,
because the reapportionment will ii
go into effect until March 3, 1913
Nor can' it affect the newly el cft-d
Sixty-second Congress. But ttiei
will be some close mathematical ca
culations by the politic! ans to d U-r
mine to what extent an geolarsreoje t
ot House membership will aflVctfu
tore Presidential elections.

made, in January, 1901, tbe total
number of votes in the Electoral Col
lege was 447. The reapportionment
based on tbe census ot 1900 increased
tbis to 476, of which 239 was ceces
8ary for a choice in tbe Parfcer-Roosevelt
campaign of 1904. In the Mc-Kinh-y-Bryan
campaign of 1900, 224
constituted a majority of the Electo
ral College. Tbe important consider
ation in tbe last reapportionment was
the number of Northern States which
would be uece-sary, in adition to the
"Solid South," for Democratic suc
cess. It appeared that the South, in
cluding Maryland, West Virginia,
Kentucky, Miss-turi and Delaware,
would cast 160 votes, about 70 lees
than a majority "New York and
Indiana," which was the rallying cry
In Tilden's time, might contribute 54
of these votes, considerably short of
the necessary number. New Jersey,
with 12, and Connecticut, with 7,
might supply tbe remaining 16 vote 3.
Thus the condition necessary in 1892

act of January 16, 1901, worked out
oa the basis uf tbe 1900 census, fixed
the ratio at one Representative for
each 191,182 population, aud gave
the House a membership of 3S6. The
add itional fi ve mem be ra came through
the admission of Oklahoma.
When tbe last apportionment was
made the population of the country
was 75,994,675. Official figures for
1910 are not ready. They are ex
pected to show not less than 90,000,

The ratio of representation will
have to be increased to prevent tbe
House becoming more unwieldy than
it is. Uerethaditti ulties ofcompu
tatton will arise. It is generally be
lieved one Representative for each
225,000 population will be the most
probable basis of computation. Oo
this basis a population of 90,000,000
would raise the membership of the
Hous9 to about 104 members a net
gain of 13 seats and 95,000,000
would increase it to 420.
