Springfield.--The twentieth annual tnterseholastic track meet of the Illi­ nois Athletic association will be held on the athletic field of the University of Illinois In Urbana, May 18. The meet, commonly known as the "Illi­ nois Interscholastic," besides being the largest high school track meet in the state is the most important, be­ cause It determines the state cham­ pionship. Preparations hare long been going on to make this meet a most memor­ able one in spite of the fact that May 18 is just about a month away, the outlook is very pleasing. Over one hundred schools have already signi­ fied their intentions of sending teams to the meet. Individual entry blanks will be sent out to these schools very soon. These blanks should be filled out as soon as possible. No entries will be received after May 7. The interest In the interscholastic has been increasing at the university. Everybody is eagerly awaiting the time when the "Twin Cities" will again be entertaining their high School visitors and .the morning of May 18 when Illinois field will again resound with the crack of the start­ er's pistol.

Illinois cattle feeders, at the Uni­ versity of Illinois were told by H. 1*1 Rusk of the animal husbandry depart­ ment of important results obtained by the university In a feeding experi­ ment for 150 days with 70 head of high-grade Hereford steers. The re­ mits were: The entire roughage, consisting of silage, shelled corn produced more rapid gains in weight and a higher finish and produced more profits than did broken corn. In a ration of broken ear corn and silage, cot- ton-seed meal produced more rap- Id gain and a higher finished product than alfalfa and silage. The larger the proportion of sil­ age the more the gains, he said, but the more expensive the gains. When fed with broken ear corn, al­ falfa produced more rapid gains and a higher finish, but at a larger cost than did silage and cotton-seed meat Finances Are Sound. According to the report of Secre­ tary Treasurer J. P. Morris of the Illi­ nois State Federation of Labor, that organization is financially in solid condition, having in its treasury at present the sum of $1,983.47. His re­ port few the six month* preceding April 1, follows: Balance to treasury October 1, 1911 .. $3,080.77 Receipts fOr six •ontki.... .. 5,308.59 Total receipts- * • „f8,385.36 Total disbursement# ...•..,*$6,801.89 Balance on hand April 1, 1911 $1,6$3.4T Big Premiums Offered. Premiums to the amount of $85,000 will be offered to exhibitors at the state fair this year. This amount is an increase of $2,000 over the amount of last year. The additional amount was distrib­ uted among the various departments except that of speed, which remains at $30,100. To Combat the Social Evil. Instruction in sex problems as a feature of public school courses was advocated by the Illinois Vigilance as­ sociation In the convention which closed at Bloomington. The Rev. john R. Golden, pastor of the West Side Christian church, and J. C. Christo­ pher, representatives of the local Vigi­ lance committee, who returned from the convention, expressed their belief that the meeting cannot fail to result In increased effectiveness in the ef­ forts of persons who are combatting the social evil. The Injunction law which is said to have proved of far reaching efTect in Iowa, was endorsed by the convention for adoption In Illinois and every effort to secure its passage in the house of representatives when it Is presented before that body will be made. The law has already been passed by the 111! nois senate, but has not been consid­ ered in the lower house. Under its provisions, any citizen may secure an Injunction to compel the closing of a house of ill fame as a public nuisance. That a large proportion of immorality Is due to the failure of parents to in­ struct their children in the mysteries of sex Is the opinion of a majority of delegates to the meeting. Authorities of national prominence on the social problem were present at the meeting. The Rev. Mr. Golden presided as chairman at the Monday evening sessjon and delivered an ad­ dress. Prohibitionists Meet.

Passage by the state legislature of compulsory safety appliance laws cre­ ates a new situation in the relation of master and servant, says the supreme court in reversing the judgment of the appellate court in the case of Mil- ford E. Streeter vs. the Western Wheeled Scraper company of Aurora. otr€6t£r lost three fingers tiirougi* «» leged failure of his employers to com­ ply with the provisions of the law. Both the trial and appellate courts held as a matter of law that the de­ fense of assumed risk was a com­ plete bar to plaintiff's cause for ac­ tion. In passing upon tie case the court says: "The passage of such a law as the one In question implies that the class of employes for whose protec­ tion it was intended had not been able to protect themselves without it, and has the effect of creating a new {situation in the relation of master j and servant, alid to present the new j question whether the doctrine of as- | sumption of risk heretofore applied to that relation should apply in the I same way to the new conditions. The | duty of the master haB been changed. He may no longer conduct his busi­ ness In his own way. The ia>w does not leave to his judgment the rea­ sonableness of inclosing or protecting dangerous machinery, or permit him to expose to increased and unlawful dangers such of his employes as may be driven by force of circumstances to continue in his employ." Pleads for Sufferers. Financial assistance from the state at large for destitute persons whom floods in southern Illinois have re­ duced to temporary pauperism was asked by Governor Deneen. The exe­ cutive's plea was couched in an offi­ cial proclamation. The governor re­ cites that receding waters In the flood­ ed districts will leave desolation In the Instances of numerous families, and asks for a fund at large, to be used In mitigating suffering wherever found.

I had been doctoring for at least a year for eczema on my foot. I had tried doctor after doctor all to uo avail. When a young girl I sprained my ankle three different times, paying little or no attention to It, when five years ago a small spot showed upon my left ankle. I was worried and sent for a doctor. He said It was eczema. He drew a small bone from the ankle r.bout the size of a match and about an Inch long. The Bmall hole grew tp about the size of an apple, and the sczema spread to the knee. The doc­ tors never could heal the hole in the mkle. The whole foot ran water all the time. "My husband and my sons were up night and day wheeling me from one room to another In the hope of giving me some relief. I would sit for hours at a time in front of the fireplace hoping for daybreak. The pain was so intense I was almost crazy, in fact, I would lose my reason for hours at a time. One day a friend of mine dropped In to see me. No more had she glanced at my foot than she ex­ claimed: 'Mrs. Finnegan, why in the world don't you try the Cuticura Rem­ edies!" Being disgusted with the doc­ tors and their medicines, and not be­ ing able to sleep at all, I decided to give the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment a trial. After using them three days that night I slept as sound as a silver dollar for eight long hours. I awoke in the morning with but very little pain, in fact, I thought I was, in heaven. After using the Cuticura Remedies for three months I was per­ fectly restored to health, thanks to the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. I will be sixty-four years of age my next birthdayv hale and hearty at pres­ ent." (Signed) Mrs. Julia Finnegan, 2234 Hebert St., St. Louis, Mo., Mar. 7, 1911.

Not Resentful. "Those people say they don't be­ lieve you ever reached the pole." "That's all right," replied the ex­ plorer, as he looked up from his manu­ script. "The more doubts there are as to whether I landed or not, the longer this rather remunerative dis­ cussion is going to last." Untold Agony, Ashamed to Be Seen Nothing Helped. Resinol Instantly Relieved and Trouble Passed Away. Such is the story of Thomas G. Hull New Haven, Conn. Every suffere from tormenting skin troubles should profit by his experience, told in his <^wn words: "F\>r twenty years or more I was troubled with terrible itching of th< body, arms and legs. I suffered uo told agony; could hardly sleep at night, and was actually ashamed to bo seen. I obtained a small jar of Resi­ nol Ointment, applied same, and was Instantly relieved. I then purchased a cake of Resinol Soap and used It In connection with the Ointment. The itching soon became less, and in a short time entirely passed away." . As Mr. Hull's letter shows, Resinol Ointment stops Itching Instantly. Used flrlth Resinol Soap It Is the quickest, easiest, and most economical treat­ ment for eczema, rashes, tetter, ring­ worm, pimples and other skin affec­ tions, as well as for burns, scalds, boils, ulcers and itching, bleeding and irlfiamed piles.
