DIES Have Done for Skin
Tortured Babies.

Ny little sister Annie Matthews, La Plata,
Charles County, Md had the cOw-pox, when
only seven wears old. She suffered terribly,
and everything we tried did no good. Every
time her clothes were taken off, every bit Of
scab would come with them she was raw all
over. one box of CUTICURA (ointmenD and
a cake of CUTICURA SOAP, cured her an three
teeeks. Mrs. ELIZA ROVE,

My niece's little baby, two years old, was so
badly afflicted with Eczema that he needed
constant watching. His face was always fun
of large sores which he scratched constantly.
Mornings, his clothes, face and hands were
stained with blood. They had medical treat
ment, and tried everything. She commenced
CUTIoURA REMEDIES. The sores left his face
and he 1cqs entirely cured. Mrs. L. j. ROOT,
Feb. 16, 1898 New Scotland, N. Y.
Our little boy was four weeks old when he
had Eczema, in the most horrible state. His
face was full of scabs, and parts of the flesh
were raw. We used CUTIcURA SOAP and one
box of CUTICURA (ointment), and in one lCeek
this boy was as good as erer.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. c. FREESE,

When my boy was three weeks old, 1 noticed
a very red roughness on his face. We had
several doctors, but they did no good was
told to use CUTICURA REMEDIES, and after
using one box and half of CUTICURA Joint

Difficult Problems.
From the Philadelphia Record Dem.

Probably the swiftest way to naturalize
and make thoroughly good citizens of the
natives of Puerto Rico would be TO send
thither an army of Yankee school masters.
When the schoolnasters have taught them
to talk English and to read English they
would soon acquire such knowledge of our
laws and customs as would thoroughly
indoctrinate them with the love of regu-
lated and rational freedom. Our task in
Cuba will be much more difficult The
Cubans have no notion of being Angli-
cized; and as we have undertaken to make
them independent we are precuded from
imposing upon them our language or laws.

Enough There Now.
From the New York Times (Dem.)

The plain fact is that the troops al
ready sent to Puerto Rico are more than
sufficient to do the work. To send thou
sands more would be to waste millions
of money. To send them in order to pro-
mote an Alger boom would be a dis
gushing farce. Gen. Wade, who is reputed
to be a tirst-class solder, is TO be COM
mlseratcd for being made the leading char
acter i'm the farce. If the excursion comes
off, he viii of course have 20 obey orders.
But it is certain that he would not seek
orders to manage the farce. 1t is to he
hoped that no colonel of New York troops
has sought or viii seek orders to take
part in the farce.

proven herself SO excellent fighting ma
chine, is now 10 be placed in command of
Capt. Sigsbee of the Maine, and there is
a rumor abroad that She may be sent to

situation of affairs there has led to the
tax of sending a battisship to that sta
ton, ana as the Texas viii be the first

THE Boy Hero of Santiago may fur
nish a subject for an interesting story of
adventure taken from real life
Charles Escudero is the boys
name. and his father is a
private in the Ninth United States In
fautry. The regiment carried him TO Can
tiago as a mascot, ana though but little
more than ten years old, he was in the
thickest of the lighting around that place
In the charge UP San Juan hill in the face
of a fearful ire he was by his fathers
side ana afterwards did duty as a water
boy for the wounded men. He recently
returned to New York on the transport
Louisiana, and the Children's Aid Society
furnished him clothing and a ticket TO his
home in Ohio. Though not ON the army
pay roll, he was a soldier nevertheless,
and by far the youngest in the Santiago
campaign.

CURRENT COMMENT.
Tic Frend of silver.
From the Philadelphia Ledger Qnd

From the Philadelphia Ledger Qnd).
Secretary Gage would welcome the ru-
mored opening of the Indian mints to the
coinage of silver at a ratio of % to 1, be-
cause it would open a market for American
silver and drain off some of the overplus
of the article with which this country is
now burdened. The secretary figures on a
rule that works both ways If the silver
ties in this country should succeed in hav-
ing the coinage of their faVorite metal re
sumed, silver would flow into the United
States and we should have a greater sur
plus of il than ever.

AS a matter of fact, there is no Cuban
debt. Spain has contracted certain In
debtedness for which she has pledged the
revenues of Cuba, but that Indebtedness
was not contracted by Cuba nor with the
consent of the Cubans, nor for their bene
fit. The so-called Cuban debt, according
10 the Statesmans Year Book, amounted
TO S2O00C0,00O in 1885, and it is now es-
timated al $500 per capita for the entire
Cuban population. 1t is not reputation
for the United States to refuse to assume
the Cuban debt" and it would be crimi-
nal injustice to compel the people of Cuba
10 pay any part of it,
