BABY'S HEAD
ONE SOLID SORE
Little Ones Terrible Suffering and
Sleepless Nights of MOther-Skin
Now Fair as Lily with No Scar to
Recall Awful Sore,

THANKS TO CUTICURA

al herewith write out in full the be-
ginning and end of that terrible disease

River, Mimi, (which caused my babe
untold suffering and myself many
sleepless nights. My babe was born
seemingly a fair, healthy child, but
when she was three weeks old a SWELL
ing appeared on the back of her head,
and In course of time broke. It did
not heal but grew worse, and the sore
spread from the size of dime to that
of dollar. i used all kinds of reme-
dies that l could think OF, but nothing
seemed TO help; i fact, it grew worse,
Her hair fell out where the sore was,
and feared it would never grow again.
1t continued until my aged father came
on visit, and when he saw the bay
he told me to get CuticWa Soap and
Ointment right away.
'To please him did so, and to my
surprise by their use the sore began to
heal over, the hair grew over it, and
to-day she has nice head of hair, her
skin is as fair as lily, and she has no
scar left to recall that awful sore, and

MR. soNAPARrE's FINDINGS.

Secretary Of the Navy BUnaparte dis
approves the findings of the Benning-
ton board of inquiry insofar as they
impliedly acquit Commander Young OF
responsibility FOR the disaster and or
ders a court martial 10 try Commander
Young. The secretary declares the evie

injured and the presence OF mind. in

There must have been good state
Of discipline on board the Bennington
or the men and officers would not have
been SO prompt about succoring the in
jured and taking care OF the ship. The
secretary OF the navy is not cOnsis-
tent ia this particular. 1t may be all
right for him 10 order a court martial
70 try Commander Young, too, IN view
of the fact that Ensign Wade is to be
tried. But while the court martial is
in session the secretary might have it
fix the responsibility for the weak boil
er b, which certainly does not rest with
either Commander Young or Ensign
Wade.
Both of these officers knew the boiler
was ia bad condition. Commander
Young notified the navy department
months before the accident that the
boiler should be replaced with a new
one Ia private letters to relatives ne
said that it was IL an extremely dan
gerous condition. and prophesied that
unless 1t was taken cut a disaster
would result. The navy department
does not seem 20 have paid any atten-
ton whatever 70 these warnings. The
officers and men Of the bennington
were permitted TO continue in constant
peril OF their lives. and the expected
came to pass.
The secretary OF the navy will not
satisfy the country by court martial
ing Commander Young. There is little
reason for believing the commander
wiz got be able 10 clear himself. II
the reports current at the time of the
accident are true. the files Of the navy
department will clear him. The man
or men higher up are the responsible
parties.

That ardent champion of the south,
the Rev. Thomas Dixon, jr., contri-
butes to the Metropolitan Magazine for
September q notable story OF the Ku

is history in the truest sense. that it

DIR. Dixon gives an extract from the
ritual Of the Khan as follows:
This is an institution of chivalry,
humanity, mercy and patriotism; en-
bodying in its genius and it's principles

good.
