Democrats and Republicans Inter-
posed Objections.
Washington, Jan. 19.-During the con-
sideration of morning business in the
Senate, Senator Bailey objected to the
consideration by unanimous consent of
all bills from the Republican side.
When bill reported by Senator Gull
,berson, changing the time for holding
court in Virginia, was read, Senator
Lodge of Massachusetts objected, say
ing that as objections seemed to be
confined to the bills from the Republic
can side, he would object, which
brought from Senator Bailey the state
ment that the senators from New York
had interfered in a matter pertaining to
the state of Texas which was a purely
local one. Senator Depew denied that
the making of Port Arthur a port of
enter was a local question.
The discussion was terminated by
Senator Cullom moving an executive
session to consider the Cuban recipro-
city treaty. After half an hour in exc
cutive session the doors were reopened,
and Senator Foraker continued his re-
marks favoring statehood for Okla
homa, Arizona and New Mexico, after
which another executive session was
held and the Senate adjourned.

1t would be interesting to know
what success Mr.. Carnegie would have

government of Turkey. Last month
Holas Effendi, a rich and benevolent
Armenian, living in Constantinople, ap-
piled to the Minister of Education for
permission to convert his house into
a free public library for the use Of
Armenians. The minister asked for a
catalogue of the books Holas intended
to present, 10000 in number. When the
list was returned 300 of the books had
been struck out as being contrary to

CUTICURA
OINTMENT
PureSt OF EmoIIients and
Greatest Of Skin Cures.
The Most Wonderful Curative
of All Time
For Torturing, Disfguring
Humours.

Cuticura 0intmentis beyond question
the most successful curative for tortur-
ing, disfguring humours of the skin and
scalp, including loss of hair, ever COM
pounded, in proof of which a single
amounting with it, preceded by hot
bath with Cuticura Soap, and followed
in the severer cases by dose of Cuti-
eura Resolvent Pills, is often sufficient
to afford immediate relief in the most
distressing forms of itching, burning
and scaly humours, permits rest and
sleep, and points to speedy cure when
all other remedies fail. 1t is especially
so in the treatment of infants and chill
dren, cleansing, soothing and healing
the most distressing of infantile hui
mours, and preserving, purifying and
identifying the skin, scalp and hair.
Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the
same time, the charm of satisfying the
simple wants Of the toilet, in caring for
the skin, scalp, hair and hands from in
fancy to age, far more effectually,
agreeably and economically than the
most expensive of toilet emollients.
Its "Instant relief for skin-tortured
babies, or g Sanative, antiseptic cleans
ing" or "One-night treatment of the
hands," or "Single treatment of the
hair" or " Use after athletics" cycling,
golf, tennis, riding, sparring, or any
sport, each In connection with the use
of Cuticura Soap, is sufficient evidence
of this.
Millions now rely on Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre-
serving, purifying and identifying the
skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts.
scales and dandruff, and the stopping
of falling hair, for softening, whitening
and soothing red, rough and sore
hands, for baby rashes, itchings and
chafings, as well as for all purposes Of
the toilet, bath and nursery.
