SEE ECZEMA DISAPPEAR!
Vbo Iloknra for Eczema nnd All Oth-.
cr Skin Troubles.
If you suffer with skin trouble so
that the Itching seems unbearable
and the skin Is so broken out that
you are sensitive about Its appear
nnce, do not think it is necessary to
use some greasy, vile-smelling oint
ment or salve.
The modern treatment is Hokara,
which is daily being used in treating
the worst cases of skin troubles, and
which contains no grease, Is pleasant
to Use and is so cleanly that it will
not soil or stain the clothes. The
power of Hokara to quickly relieve
any itching or burning of the skin
and to make it soft, white and vel
Toty is almost miraculous.
All minor skin troubles like pim
ples, blackheads, barber's Itch, etc.,
quickly respond to Hokara, and even
the worst cases of eczema, ulcers,
salt rheum, and other chronic skin
diseases are successfully treated with
Hokara.
Improvement often begins with
the first treatment and the trouble
.grows noticeably less each da"y until
it entirely disappears, leaving the
skin In Its normal health and color.

ENGLISH FOOD PRICES UP,
AND TAX PROBLEMS OCCUR.
Brltlthen Suffering Great Hardship
From High Cost of Living.
Tlio rising cost of living in England
Is a question fast gaining a serious
ness of aspect which Is bound some
day to assume nation wide impor
tance. Although It is by no means
the burning topic that it is in Amcrl- 1
ca, the man in tho cars is beginning
to discover that his wages do not go
so far, even under skillful household
management, as they used to do.
Out and out tariff reformers, or
whom Austen Chamberlain is the chief,
have retorted upon free traders by re
minding them of tho food taxes which
already exist. Liberal free traders
who In times past raised the cry of
the "free breakfast table" have been
reminded of the duties on tea, sugar,
cocoa, cuffec, chicory nnd dried fruits.
Over $50,000,000 In duty was paid on
these commodities during the last year
on record. A campaign for the repeal
of these food taxes Is likely to assume
important dimensions in the near fu
ture. The advance In food prices since
1900 is 14.0 per cent, and, ns wages
have not increased In like proportion,
one needs little imagination to under
stand the significance of such a state
of things.
DANA WORKS AS CONDUCTOR.
Grandson of Longfellow and Hero of
"Ethical" Marriage Has Humblo Job.
Edmund Trowbridge Dana, grandson
of the poet Longfellow and a graduate
of Harvard, with the degree of master
of arts and bachelor of arts, Is work
ing as a conductor for the Middlesex
nnd Boston Street Railway company at
21 cents an hour. The former Harvard
athlete and Instructor, whoso "ethical"
marriage Inst June to Jessie Ilollidny,
nn English portrait painter, aroused
discussion here nnd abroad because the
bride wrote the ritual, denies the re
ports of nn estrangement between him
and his wife. He says that while his
wife has been In England since last
October, she is planning to rejoin him
the first week in April.
Dana, who is a member of the Insti
tute of 1770, the D. K. E., the nasty
Pudding club nnd tho Round Table, is
officially known ns No. 1,013 nt tho
Wnltham car barn. Ho got his Job
through tho state free employment bu
reau. Despite the fact thnt his father,
Richard IT. Dana, Is one of the wealth
lost residents of Cambridge, young
Dnna is contented with a furnished
room nt 49 Vernon street. Waltham,
for which he pays $1.50 a week.
STRETCHES HEIGHT 4 INCHES
Prisoner Has Ability to Increase or Da
crease His Measurements.
William J. Iteed, in prison at Folsom,
Cal., and described by the police of
Washington as a dangerous swindler,
has been Identified, it Is asserted,
through photogrnphs, as a man who
has been sought by detectives' for a
year, during which time, it is alleged,
lie has swindled a number of business
men in various parts of the country
out of many thousands of dollars.
A photograph of the prisoner in Cal
ifornia has been Identified by a local
complainant, although the measure
ments of the prisoner show him to be
six feet one inch tall, while the man
wanted hero Is described ns about five
feet nine inches. Tho detectives say
the prisoner is nblo to stretch his
height and that this accounts for the
discrepancy in his measurements.
no Is said to have the knack of de
creasing or Increasing his stature at
will, with a rango of four Inches.
ANGLO-AMERICAN EXPOSITION.
Englishman Announces Plans For
Great Peace Celebration.
Imre Klralfy announces that an Anglo-American

tween tho two English speaking na
tions. He has formed a powerful commit
tee, which is headed by tho Duke of
Beaufort and others whoso names oc

United States.
Tho scope of tho exposition will em
brace everything which will go to
show tho progress of tho nrta and sci
ences in tho two countries in the last
100 years. There will also be strong
historical sections.
SHORTHAND BY PIN PRICKS.
Blind Boy Invents Method of Record
ing Lectures.
Determined that his handicap of to
tal blindness shall not prevent him
from obtaining an education, Harold
Dey Howard, nineteen years old, has
returnod to his studies in commercial
law at tho University of Pennsylvania.
Ho was allowed to matriculate only
becauso of his scholastic record nt tho
Overbrook School For tho Blind. Ho
Is at a double disadvantage over tho
other students In that ho cannot visual
ize tho lessons and tho university
makes no provision for the Braille
books with their raised letters.
Young Howard has brought his In
ventlvo genius Into play by forming a
system of shorthand, which he pricks
In paper with a pin, thus giving him a
lasting record of tho lectures In his
lasses.

MAN EXISTS AFTER DEATH
IN FORM OF GAS, IS CLAIM.
German Soientlsts Assert Unusual
Discovery,
Man exists after death in the form
if gas endowed with intelligence. This
is alleged to bo tho discovery of two
Germans described as scientific spir
itualists. They are Messrs. -Matin and
Zaalberg Van Zclst.
The Germans constructed an appa
ratus by which they might measure
the spirit superman whom they have
christened the "man force."
The experiments nro' stated to have
shown that tho "man force" is not
what can properly bo termed "soul" us
It was amenable nnd responded to
physical tests. On the other hand, it
Is not a body, as It is invisible. It Is 1
therefore dtiflnod as a gaseous compo-1
sitloti. !
In 1004 tho Germans were told by
the spirits to mako two air tight cyllu-,
ders and to cover the outer and Inner
sides of these cylinders with sheets of
tin. The spirits stated that they would
bo able to penetrate tho cylinder nnd '
would be kept there by the tin. I
Attached to tho cylinder was a high
ly sensitivo recorder, and It is from
records made that the scientific spirit
ualists state they have found that
The records were made by a limited
being.
The being had Intelligence since It
took part in tho experiments.
The being was gaseous, as it obeyed
the laws which govern gases.
The density of tho body was equal to
that of air.
DEADLIEST GUN INVENTED.
Frenchman Designs Weapon Which
Throws Light on Object.
A French Inventor has made a fright
ful addition to tho elllcacy of the re
volver. A small but powerful electric
light Is attached to the mechanism of
a pistol of ordinary size. By use of
lenses and mirrors tho glare of the cir
cle of Huht which the lamp throws is
bright enough to bo clearly seen In
daylight against so light nn object as
a light colored suit of clothes. Nove,
the center of tho circle of light, mark
ed by a black spot, by arrangement of
tho lenses is exactl.V the spot where
tho bullet will strike. Thus all one
has to do is to place the black center
of the blazing circle of light over the
heart of an ndversary and pull the
trigger.
At night the light is shockingly
ntiwg. Experiments with the new
weapon show thnt perfect greenhorns,
who have never used a revolver in
their lives, can shoot far more accu
rately than experts using nn ordinary
pistol. Up to sixty yards one cannot
miss a small bullseye, day or night,
while extremely accurate shooting 19
possible up to 100 yards. The lamp
arrangement adjusts automatically by
levels to distances.
HE INVENTS BOXING ARMOR.
Physical Director Provides Means to
Avoid Injury.
Tho mnnly art as a part of the regu
lar course of study In connection with
the physical training branch of the
schools of tho United States was dis
cussed In the annual convention of tb
Nntlonal Physical Education associa
tion In Newark, N. J., recently.
Six hundred delegates witnessed In
tho First Regiment armory Interesting
demonstrations of a device designed
by Dr. Guy Otis Brewster, director ot
physical training of tho public schools
of Dover, N. J.
Eight husky young athletes selected
from tho Dover high school gave uh
exhibition and displayed Dr. Brewster's
system. They used all the strength
and skill of which they were possessed
In landing right and left swings, hooks,
jabs, uppercuts nnd cross counters, but
all without tho slightest injury to each
other.
This was becauso tho combatants
were armor clad. Each wore a mask
and body screen made of steel wire
mesh, with thick felt shock absorbers
nnd adjusted to tho head and breast In
auch a manner as to resist Impact from
whatever auglo.
URGES NAVY FUND FOR DIKES
Cfdrgyman Declares Warship Money
Would Stop Floods.
The government could save millions
of dollars and many lives each year,
tho Rev. Tobias Schanfarber of Chi
cago told his congregation recently at
the K. A. M. temple, East Thirty-third
street and Indiana avenue, If the mon
ey spent for warships were spent in
building dikes.
"It is an appropriate timo to build
defenses about our cities," ho said.
"Tho government spends millions of
dollars each year for warships nnd
coast defense. If half that amount
wero spent in the protection of inland
cities that are subject to floods the sav
ing would be more than tho money in
vested." LIFE WAGES TO INJURED MAN.
