Eczema!
The Only Cure.

Eczema is more than skin disease,
and no skin remedies can cure it. The
doctors are unable to effect cure, and
their mineral mixtures are damaging
to the most powerful constitution. The
whole trouble is in the blood, and
Swifts Specific is the only remedy
which can reach such deep-seated blood

NO SPEECH,

As usual when the conditions are fa- vorable, the seekers for a speech were on hand at the Hyperion last evening, and they sought with much noise and persistence. But their search was not rewarded. MT. Gillette graciously and gracefully showed himself times enough to satisfy any reasonable human being and also those not too unreasona ble. But he wouldn't talk, and in not talk ing he did most commendably right. The actor who makes speech between two acts of serious play makes a mistake, even if he makes a speech that ism painfully hesitating and riotously un- grammatical. He destroys whatever il- fusion he has created and he calls atten- tion to himself as a man and a speech maker when it is better for him and those who want to enjoy the play that he be looked on only as an actor. There have been some great speeches by ac- tors in New Haven, including the me- morable and thankful one of Henry Irving, and the rather unthankful one of Brother Miller. But we can remem- Der none that did not detract from the impressiveness of the play and the halo of the actor.

THE RATE OF INTERE.y7

When in 1882 the Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance company, alone among the companies, anticipating the great decline which has taken place in the rate of interest and is still in progress, based it's premiums and reserves for all business thereafter on the assumption of earning only per cent, as the high est safe calculation for so long a future some thought the action was unwise the question is, is not the rate of inter- est going to go still lower than it has already gone? Attention is impressive ly called to this matter by the answers obtained by the Equitable Life Insur- quiries among financiers as to the rate of interest that it might confidently count upon receiving upon safe invest ments within the next twenty years Of the sixty-five replies received fifty five named to 31a per cent. as the best that could be expected. Only four went so high as per cent, three others said 3% and four went so low as PA to 3 per cent The inquiries were not confined to New York capitalists, but included Secretary Gage and other well known financiers in the country
 
 These ideas of good tinanciers are not encouraging to those who have money to invest or who expect to have money to invest. Three per cent. isn't much for money to earn when 1t means work and anxiety instead of ease and freedom from care.
