CUTICURA
OINTMENT
Purest Of EmOIIientS and
Greatest Of Skin Cures.
The Most Wonderful Curative
Of All Time
For Torturing, Disfguring
Humours.

Cuticura Ointment is 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-
cura Resolvent Pills, Is often sufficient
to afford immediate relief in the most
distressing forms of itching, burning
and scaly humours, permits rest and
sleep, aud points to a 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 hu,
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 eilectually,
agreeably and economically than the
most expensive of toilet emollients.
Its "Instant relief for skin-tortured
babies, "or "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 dandrufr, and the stopping
Of falling hair, for softening, whitening
and soothing red, rough and sore
hands, for baby rashes, feelings and
chafings, as wei as for all purposes Of
the toilet, bath and nursery.

A HopkinsyiIe Doctor Had an Event
full Career,
A Narrow Escape From Indians
Turned His Hair GRAY in
Night.
WAS A SUCCESSFUL MAN

Hopkinsville, Ky. Jan. 21-Dr. A.E.
Bentley, who died at his home in this
city, had an interesting career. He
made and lost two fortunes, one in
the east, and one in the west. His
hair turned gray in night after q
race for life with Indisns. DIR. Bent
ley was born 63 years ago in England,
and came to America about the time
the Civil War began. Landing in New
York and having some capital he had
brought with him from the old coun-
try, he found in the unsettled condi-
lions that prevailed unusual opportu-
mites for making money. Rumors OF
pirates on the high seas made many
merchants eager to sell cargoes con
signed to them, and late arriving, for
great deal less than their value
rather than to take the risk OF los
ing them altogether. Engaging in
this business, DIR. Bentley made in
few months a great deal Of mon
ey. Depositing the bulk Of his pro-
fits in a New York bank, he return
ed to England, where he remained
about q year. After providing for
his family and arranging for the ed
ucation Of his younger brothers and
sisters. he came back TO New York.
While en- route there the brnk in
which he had deposited his money
had failed. DR.. Bentley, after stu
dying medicine in New York, took
the advice Of his favorite editor, Hor-
ace Greeley, and went west. In .
few years,by the practice OF his pro-
fession and fortunate investments, he
accumulated another comfortable for
tune.
Accompanied by guide, be start
ed east. where he expected to locate,
having wealth enough to live at ease.
All his possessions were loaded in q
wagon, which was driven by the
guide, and DIR. Bentley was on horse
back. About thirty miles from Leav-
enworth, Kan, they were attacked
by Indians. The guide was killed and
DR.. Bentley was pursued by the red
skins to the outposts of the soldiers
camp at Leavenworth. 1t was ter
rible experience, and bullets and ar
rows whizzed by his head. An arrow
lodged in the back OF his saddle. Gal
Looping up to the soldiers he fell I'M
conscious from his horse, and was not
restored to sensibility for twelve
hours, during which time his nair
turned perfectly, white. DIR. Bent
ley's money and valuables were new.
er recovered.
He went from Leavenworth to
Philadelphia, where he was married,
and came to Logan county, KY,
where relatives OF his wife lived. He
shortly moved to Sebree, in Webster
county, where he successfully prac-
ticed medicine several years and was
city judge. He moved to Dixon, and
came from there ABOUT twelve years
ago to this city. He was successful
here. both professionally and in bust
ness ventures, and leaves a good es.
tate.

W. Grille, a member Of the Cleveland
Medical society has contributed an ar

The discovery Is the result Of recent

Thinks AL Are Too Nell Paid.

Among oflicehOlders in Washington
Comptroller Tracewell of the treasury
is regarded as most extraordinary
person. Mr. TraceWell's salary is S.

Worse than entertaining such a heter-
odoX opinion, however, is the fact that
he has not hesitated to give express
sion thereto. During the recent ses.
sion of congress he was giving a sub
committee some information regard
ing his office. The chairman compli.
mented him by saying: You are the
first man government officer who has
appeared before us who did not ask
for an increase of salary" Tracewell
replied bluntly: I'm getting a blank

MUST TURN THEM LOOSE.
American Protests Against Mexican
Arrests of Railway Men Needed.

Washington, Dec 23-Complaints
having reached the state department
from many sources during the past few
years that American citizens employed
in various capacities on the railroads of
Mexico frequently had been arrested
and imprisoned in that republic on the
charge of criminal negligence in rail-
way wrecks, homicides, etc, and held
for long periods without trial, the
United States ambassador to Mexico
was directed by Secretary Hay to ex-
anime into these cases and bring the
subject to the attention of the Mexican
government with a view of ame1iorat-
ing the condition which appeared to ex-
iSt. As a consequence of Mr.. Clayton s
representations to the Mexican foreign
office an important circular letter has
been issued by the Mexican department
circuit courts throughout that republic
advising against the arrest and impriS-
onnent of such railway employees ex-
cept on a strong presumption of guilt,
and directing them in all cases to ex-
pedite the judicial proceedings as rapid
ly as possible. The provision for the
release of the accused on bail also is
made wherever the nature Of the Offense
will permit it.
Ambassador Clayton has reported to
the department of state that of 43 cases
of American railway men arrested since
in three Of the remaining five the men
released on bail fled to the United
States. In two instances are proceed
ings still pending.
1t is observed that of the 43 persons
arrested IA were arrested for offenses
trains; and the percentage of arrests OF
Americans employed in Mexico is only
.O33 while that of Mexicans is AS and
of all other nationalitieS .063.
