THE CHARLOTTE NEWS, JUNE 12 1906. ? I : i LITTLE BABY'S AWFUL HUM Thin Skin Formed Over Body and Under it Was Watery Blood When Washed it Would Burst and Break-Suffered for Weeks Now Sound and Well CURED IN ONE WEEK BY CUTICURA REMEDIES i "When my little girl baby was one week old she had a skin disease. A thin skin formed over her body and under it was watery blood, and when she was washed it would burst and break. She was in that condition for weeks, and I tried everything I could think of, but nothing did her any good. When she was three months old I took her to San Antonio to see a doctor, but the doctor we wanted to see was not at home, so my sister gave me a cake of Cuticura Soap and half a box of Cuti cura Ointment, and told me to use them, which I did in time. I used them three times, and the humor began to fade, and in one week she was sound and well, and it has never returned since. I think every mother should keep the Cuticura Remedies in the house. Yours truly, Mrs. H. Aaron, Benton, Texas, July 3, 1905." WEEPING ECZEMA "I have used the Cuticura Remedies for some years past. The Cuticura Soap we are never without, and the Ointment is the finest in the world. It has done wonders in curing my little girl of weeping eczema. Respectfully, Mrs. J. E.

President ; Roosevelt heard a curious story of the desertion from the United States Navy and an appeal on behalf of the culprit The statement was made to the President by Senator Gallinger, of New Hampshire, on behalf of Senator Tillman, of South Carolina. Senator gallinger .was . accompanied to the White House by Representative John sen, of South Carolina. A drief time ago, J. Matthews Fort ner, a mountain boy of Pickent coun ty, South Carolina, became imbued with the idea of becoming a Baptist preacher. While in this state of exul tation, he encountered a. recruiting officer of the Navy who suggested that Fortner enlist in the Navy and thereby obtain an all round education that would be of advantage to him in his clerical calling. FortHer enlisted with the idea that the Navy was particular ly adapted to religiously inclined young . men. He was sent aboard the Lancas ter in 1903. The young man soon decided that the navy was not quite the place for a man inclined toward the ministry and deserted. He" became a student at Fv--man University at Greenville. South Carolina. The police learned the his tory of his enlistment and arrested him. He is now in prison. The Presi dent listened to the story with deep interest. He suggested that the young man would have to stand trial for de sertion and then all the facts would be developed. He promised to take up the case after trial and to ascertain what, "if anything, could be done for Fortner in the way of leniency. President Invited to N. C. By Associated Press. W ashington.

Senator Overman, of North Carolina, extended an invitation to the President to visit Salisbury, North Carolina, on the fourth of July, but the President was obliged, to decline on account of an other engagement. CATARRH FROM CHILDHOOOD. Cured by Hyomei, the Only Medicine for Catarrh that R. H. Jordan & Co are Willing to Guarantee. The popularity and growth of Hyo mei are unique in the annals of medi cine. The demand for the Hyomei out fit and the extra bottles in Charlotte has been something phenomenal, and R. H. Jordan & Co. say that they have never sold any other remedy which gave such universal satisfaction and made so many remarkable cures. The worst and most chronic cases of catarrh readily yield to the use of Hyomei. People who have suffered from childhood have been cured by this remedy. J. S. Nugent, treasurer of the American Union Insurance Co., ,Jiew York. City, writes: Hyomei has f ."completely cured my daughter of ca . tarrh, from which she had been suf- ji ienngLior years. So.jnany remarkable results have at tended the use of Hyomei amongst the 4 customers of R. H. Jordan & Co. that they feel justified in using the strong- ?v est possible language in speaking of its ; Tirtues, and when you read that they y sell it under a positive guarantee to i 3fund the money if it does not cure, i j ou will see that they fully believe in i ;s curative , powers, A complete out , f.t costs only one dollar, extra bottles !r, 50 cents. t If not convenient to obtain Hyotuel "lot R. H. Jordan or some other druggist it will be forwarded from the laborato ry by mall On receipt or price. The R .T. Booth Co., Hyomei Bids, Ithaca, N. X. THE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION.
