take pleasure in letting you know how
much CUTICURA REMEDIES have done for me,
my father and two brothers. In the fall Of
'95, / began to be afflicted with an itching rash
under my chin. 1t kept spreading until it
was all over my body. 1 could not sleep but
was compelled to lie awake and scratch all
the time. My father and two brothers were
afflicted with the same thing, at the same time.
We all suffered terribly for year and half,
trying in the meantime all the remedies we
could find, but received no benefit. hap
pened to see CUTICURA REMEDIES advertised
and how they had cured others from itching
skin diseases, and we thought we would try
them. l bought three cakes of CUTICURA
SOAR and three boxes of CUTICURA tointment)

A PRICE ON HIS HEAD.
A Noted Greek Brigand Cap
tured in New York.

New York, Dee. 2S-Michae1 Ferran-
dou a Greek, who was charged with
having decoyed a Greek sailor, Nicolas
ZoutsoubIe, to his room and there beat
ing him into insensibility and rObbing
him, upon being arraigned in court to-
day, was identified as the Greek br1-
gand, Zouteros de SarantOs, for whom
the Greek government has offered 5000
francs dead or alive. The Identification
was made by George zegouras, of this
city, and others.
Sarantos, it was stated, has been IN
this country for many months and has
been recognized by nearly all the
Greeks who have met him as the bri-
gand on whose head the Greek govern
nent has placed a price, but they have
been afraid to disclose his identity to
the authorities. Just prior to the break
ing out of the Graeco-Turkish war a
band of brigands, under the leadership
of Sarantos, infested the province of
Artolia, in the southern portion of
Greece. These outlaws imprisoned
wealthy residents of the country and
travellers and held them for ransom.
Many English and other tourists suffer-
ed at the hands of the outlaws. They
became such a terror that the Greek
government sent a detail of soldiers to
aid the police of the locality in sup
pressing them. The outlaws and the
