at Once.
-*
At a meeting of tin.' library com-J
mil lee of the Newport News Edu?
cational Aitsoclntlom held yesterday
afternoon in the jmrlors of the Po
cnhontus hotel, a movement was
started looking toward the erection
of a Newport News building at the
Jamestown exposition. A committee, I
composed of Mesdames J. L. Pat-1
ton, II. 13. Holmes, John U. Locku
H, Y. Llghtfoot. and AbeHorwltz,
was appointetl to solicit funds forj
the erection of the building.
It is proposed to erect a one-story I
frame structure, to contain a well
appointed restaurant In which' "Old
Virginia" meals will be served, vis?
itors to the exposition by old time]
negroes. As there will bo very few
restaurants In the exposition
grounds the library committee ex?
pects to realize alarge sum of money
from the r-stanrant. This money
will be added to the fund now be?
ing raised by the library committee
of the Educational Association for a
(public library in Newport. News.
While the building will be nec?
essarily be a plain one, it Is pro?
posed to makj.' it as attractive look
tug as possible und among other
pins for enhancing Its beauty at a
tului num cost is that of covering
t'lie surrounding veranda and the
building itself with climbing rose
bushes and vines. The interior of
?the structure will be lilted up In
a plain, but attractive sty4e.
The committee has assurance that]
It can secure a concession for the |
.building from the Jamestown Ex?
position Company and as the struct?
ure as proposed will not cost over
$1,500 It seems almost certain Jhat
the building will be erected. The.
committee on funds will begin work
at once and expects to raise the
necessary money within a few weeks
at the latest.
The Educational Association's gen?
eral library fund Is swelling rapidly.
Considerable money has been rea?
lized from the ofod shows that are
being conducted weekly and yester?
day afternoon It was decided to give
monthly euchre parties at the Po
ca'hontas Hotel for the benefit of
the library fund. Mesdames Abe
Horwltz Nexsen and H. IL Holmes
w.to appointed a committee on ar?
rangements for the euchre parties.
Tho weekly food show of the li?
brary committee will bo conducted
by Mesdames Elbort -Nexsen, E. S.
Lodged and Frederick Thompson
and Miss Helen Harris.

SPLENDID FOR
THE OLD FOLKS
Prescription to Relieve Bladder Trou?
ble Which Anyone Can Mix
At Home.
Cut this out and put in sumo safe
place, for it is valuable and worth
more than anything else In the world
if you should have an attack of rheu
mutism or bladder trouble or any
derangement of the kidneys what?
ever.
The prescription is simple, and can
be made up by anyone at home. The
ingredients can be had at evtvy good
proscription pharmacy and all that is
necessary is to shake them well in a
bottle.
Here It is: Fluid extract dandelion,
one-half ounce; compound Knrgon.
one ounce; compound syrup of sar.su
purillu. three ounces.
Take a teaspoonftil after each meal
and at bedtime. A few doses Is said
lc) relieve almost, any case of bladder
trouble, frequent urination, pain and
scalding, weakness and backache, pain
above the kidneys, etc. It is now
claimed to be tile method of curing
chronic rheumatism, because of its
direct and positive action lipon the
eiimlnative tissues of the kidneys, it
cleanses these sponge-like organs and
gives them life and power to sift and
strain the poisonous waste matter and
uric acid from the blood relieving the
worst forms of Rheumatism and kid?
ney and bladder troubles. The ex?
tract dandelion acts upon the stomach
and liver and is used also extensively
for relieving constipation and Indiges?
tion. Compound sarsaparilki cleans
and enriches the blood.
As you or anyone of your family, es?
pecially the old folks, may be attack?
ed at any time it would lie wise to
cut this out and save it.
A well-known local druggist is au?
thority that this prescription is sate
to use at any lime.
Mix it yourself.

TERRIBLE ITCHING
On Hands, Feet and Face?Caused
by Poison Oak and Ivy?Was
Unable to Rest Night or Day
Developed into Eczema, which
Affected Whole of System?Suf?
fered 4 Years Without Relief.
CURED BY THE
CUTICURA REMEDIES
"Ahealthy person dcesnot heed state?
ments made by sick people, but if such
persons suffer from poisonous weeds, a
remedy is anxiously desired. I suffered
severely for four years from poison oak
and ivy. My condition was serious, as
I could not rest night or day and bo treo
from a terrible itching sensation from
scratching on my hands between the
fingers, my feet and face. I got the best
of advice and treatment from six differ?
ent doctors who were anxious to cure
me. Ono of tho doctors told me that
when the poison was cured, eczema (a,
wortsc disease) would follow, which be?
came true. My eyesight was affected,
and I went to a hospital especially for
the eyes and got relief, but eczema got
a terrible hold on my system.
"I was about, to give up all hope of
ever being cured, yet I could not lxs
reconciled to such results, as my health
hail been good and free from any dis?
ease till my life. My ago is seventy
three years. In my extremity I hap?
pened to read of Cuticura Remedies for
skin disease.-;, and wrote you to nlcuso
send me a supply of the Cuticura Reme?
dies. I was anxious about my condition
and desired to evade any spurious imi?
tation. Tin's was in July, 1905, nnd I
was instructed to call on a certain drug?
gist for theOuticura Remedies. I bought
five boxes Cuticura Ointment; also somo
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Pills as I
required I hem. In four weeks' treat?
ment my face was smooth, and the itch?
ing gradually left my hands and feet
and I cotild rest comfortably, for which
I am grateful and happy. YV. Field
