K ilXE "EASY MONEY" AMATEUR BEGGAR'S HARD LUCK STORY WON. But Perhaps If He Really Hod Been Hungry His Nerve Would Have Failed Him at tho Critical Stage. After turning down nn uncouth look ing Btrnngcr who expressed his desire for the price of a meal, .lolm A. Thompson continued thoughtfully on his way. "Must be cmbnrrnEBing to ask a man for a dime and get turned down," mused John. "That poor fellow didn't know how to nut up a plausible story. Tlsn't so easy, mobby. Llko as not I couldn't do any better." These thoughts led to still more thoughts and tho first thing John knew he had determined to find out if he could tell a hard luck story that would get tho money. Slowly and with measured stride, he strolled on down Superior av.enue. Ho had decided to watch , and prey, and keep on watching until ho sighted his prey. By and by, a well-dressed man, va lise in hand, whom John felt sure was a total stranger to him, came walking briskly along. John Thompson stopped him. "You doubtless have just finished a hoU-1 dinner," began John. "I am hungry. ("Were you ever hungry?" i "I don't care lo be cioss-oxainlncd," ,rcturned the stranger tartly. John winced slightly. Could tho stranger know that he made his living cross-examining people? But ho took hold of the man's lapel and renewed his line of talk. "I've got to have a piece of money, I tell you," he said with vehemence. "I'm hungry. You wouldn't stop to argue if you'd ever been real hungry. Possibly you've been rcaied in the lap of luxury and don't realize how gray the sky line looks when you haven't even the price of a sandwich in your pocket." "You seem like an intelligent fol ic w," remarked John's victim, sizing him tip, curiously. "You shouldn't have to co hiingiy. There is work for all in this world." "You are complimentary," leturned John, "but it docs not alleviate my craving for food. My stomach has been almost entirely depleted for 2 J hours. Have you no sympathy? Is there no fooling of humanity in your soul?" "Your clothes are good tailor-made garments, I take It. You shouldn't be without funds. You've seen better days." 'You're evading the issue," sighed John, sadly; "the fact remains that I am hungry, almost to the point of starvation. If you are unwilling to aid a poor, needy person like me, say so and " "Oh, well, take this," cut in tho stranger, dropping a quarter into Thompson's hand. 'I didn't say I wouldn't help you. I am simply In terested in sociology and wondered why a man, evidently of some intelli gence, should " John was smiling whimsically as he replaced the quarter in the hand of his benefactor. "I just wanted to see if I could do It," he explained. Then drawing a crisp new five-dollar bill from his vest pocket, ho added: "Walk on over across the street with me and have a cigar or something." Cleveland Plain Dealer. Dreadful Possibility. One day small Elmer observed five funerals pass the house. After tho last one had passed he said: "Mamma, If wo don't hurry up and die heaven will be so crowded wo can't get in." Standing.

IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA. Whole Body a Mass of Raw, Bleeding, f Torturing Humor Hoped Death Would End Fearful Suffering. In Despair; Cured by Cuticura. "Words cannot describe the terrible eczema I suffeied with. It broko out on my head and kept spreading until it covered my wholo body. I was almost a solid mass of sores from head to foot. I looked more like a piece of raw beef than a human be ing. Tho pain and agony endured seemed more than I could bear. Blood and pus oozed ftom the great sore on my scalp, from under my finger nails, and nearly all ovift- my body. My cars weiu so crusted and swollen I was afraid they would break off. Every hair in my head fell out. I could not sit down, for my clothes would stick to tho raw and bleeding ' flesh, making mo cry out from the ' pain. My family doctor did all ho , could, but I got worse and worse. My , condition was awful. I did not think i I could live, and wanted death to come and end my frightful sufferings, j "In this condition my mother-in-law begged me to try the Cuticura Kern- ' edies. I said I would, but had no hope or recovery. But on, what blessed re lief I experienced after applying Cuti cura Ointment. It cooled the bleeding and Itching flesh and brought me tho first real sleep I had had in weeks. It was as grateful as ice to a burning tongue. I would bathe with warm water and Cuticura Soap, then apply the Ointment freely. I also took Cuti cura Resolvent for the blood. In a short time tho sores stopped running, tho flesh began to heal, and I knew I wa3 to get well again. Then the hair on my head began to grow, and in a short time I -was completely cured. I wish I could tell everybody who has eczema to use Cuticura. Mrs. Win. Hunt, 3 35 Thomas St., Newark, N. J., Sept. 28, 190S." Potter Drut & Chem. Corp., Solo Props , Boston. He Wins Either Way.
