Terribly Infamed.
Had to Wear Soft Mittens to Keep

2 Leading Physicians Gould Not

CURA. Immediate Cure.

Our little daughter, now fifteen months old,
was troubled from her birth with Eczema.
Her face, arms, hands, and neck would break
out with red pimples, the parts afflicted
would swell and become terribly inhamed,
water would ooze out like great beads of per
SEPARATION, finally this would dry up and the
skin would crack and peel off. She suffered
terribly. Had to wear soft mittens on her
hands to keep her from scratching. We gave
two of our leading physicians good trial,
but neither of them helped her in the least.
purchased CUTICURA SOAP, CUTICURA (Oint-
ment), and CUTICURA REsoLYENT, and com
menced using them as follows: After bath
ing wiped her with a soft linen cloth, applied
CUTICURA (ointment) freely, and gave her the
REsoLvENT regularly. She improved at once
and is now never troubled, although we have
used less than one bottle of REsOLvENT, three
boxes of SALvE, and of course CUTIcURA
SOAP. The statements have made are abso-
lutely true and not exaggerated in any way.

Banks in a Hole.

1t is said in financial circles that a great
many of the national banks find them
selves in a very unsatisfactory position.
They sold their per cent. bonds-or a
very considerable part of them-with the
expectation of being able to purchase the
new per cent bonds at par. In factthey
expected they would have no trouble in
getting all they needed OF them for bank
ing purposes. 1t turns out, however, that
neither banks nor corporations nor asso-
ciated capital will get any bonds. At
least S1O0. 100000 has been subscribed for
by persons who ask for bonds of the ce-
nomination of $500 and less. Most of these
subscribers take only one or two bonds.
The other S1OOOOO,O 600 is taken by persons
who subscribed for $500 and less.
The banks are already talking about
paying a premium for the bonds. In fact
the bonds are selling at a very consdera-
BILE premium; and before the banks get
all they want the chances are thai they
will have 10 pay a much higher premium
than they lexpect.
Some bankers estimate that if the prose
cution of the war continues to be an unin-
terrupted success the bonds will command
a premium of per cent. before the end
of this year. In that event the subscrib-
ers to the bonds viii have made a very
good Investment.

Germany and the philippines.

The belief that Germany intends to OPP
pose the execution OF Admiral Dewey's
plans for taking possession of the Philip
pines is not nearly as strong as it was In
our dispatches yesterday from Berlin it
was stated that the tone Of the German
newspapers IS much more friendly to us
than it was a week or two ago, and
Washington dispatch says that there are
excellent reasons for thinking that our
government has received information of
The most reliable kind that it is not Ger
many's purpose to put obstacles in the way
Of the execution of our plans at Manila.
A fact that does not appear to have been
given the weight to which It is entitled is
that Just as soon as our
transports with troops arrived
at Manila most of the ships of the
German squadron withdrew from the port.
If Germany has any intention of trying to
prevent US from bombarding Manila, or Of
doing any other proper thing for getting
possession of the Philippines, it would
seem as if she would have kept all of the
ships Of her Asiatic squadron at Manila.
The departure of a greater part of her
which she has made a number of times,
namely that she has no other purpose at
Manila than TO see that the interests Of
her subjects are properly protected. Be
neving that Admiral Dewey was able to
protect all interests after he received the
necessary reinforcements, and that he
would protect them, she felt it was no lon
ger necessary to keep a large squadron at
Manila. This may not be the correct view
OF the situation. but there are some strong
reasons for thinking it is.
It cannot be long now before the two
monitors sent from San Francisco to Ma
Mia will arrive at their destination. With
the addition of those two lighting ma
chimes to his squadron, Admiral Dewey
would have no difficulty in quickly Destroy
ing Germany's Asiatic squadron. Germany
understands very well that her squadron
would not have much of a chance of win
ming a victory in a fight with the squadron
which Admiral Dewey win have in Manila
harbor when the monitors which have
been sent to his assistance arrive there.
1t may be that our naval strength a Ma
Mia is what has led German newspapers
to speak in a more kindly tone of this
country But whatever the reason may be,
il is certain that the tone of the German
newspapers is much more friendly to us
row than it was This would not be the
case if Germany had any intention of con-
testing our rights 10 take possession of
the Philippines. Instead of Withdrawing
her warships she would in all probability
increase the number of them.
AT one time it did look as if we should
have to fight Germany as well as Spain
but each day makes 1t clearer that she has
no intention of measuring strength with
us on land or sea, unless she can get
some one or more of the other Powers of
Europe to assist her, and there is no prob
ability that she can do that.

Some consideration ought TO be shown
for the comfort and safety of the pedes-
TRANS who promenade the walks of the

promenade those walks If they were not
afraid to do so. There is at present no
good reason why the walk on the eastern
