DELEGATES ARE OPTIMISTIC
NEUTRALS STRIVING TO MODIFY
STAND OF FRANCE AND
GERMANY.

Algeciras, Spain, March 20. - The
general disposition of the delegates to
the conference on Moroccan reforms
continues inclined toward optomism,
but no further apparent movement
has been made in the direction Of a
solution of the points at issue be-
tween France and Germany. The del
egates of the neutral powers confer
separately with the French and Ger
man delegates several times daily,
striving to modify the outwardly un-
compromising stand taken by both
sides. 1t is the general belief, how
ever, that the present situation of in
decision will not change until further
instructors arrive from Paris and
Berlin.
Meanwhile the French and German
delegates do not discuss the situation
together Each side is vainly await
ing the sign of concession from the
other and maintaining it's respective
standpoint. The neutral delegates do
not believe the deadlock will last
much longer and express the convic-
tion that neither France nor Germany
will allow the conference to fail after
such prodigious efforts have been
made by all the powers represented
to have them reach an equitable un-
derstanding.

NO REST NIGHT OR DAY.

About the latter part OF July my

take much notice of it at first, but it
began to get worse all the time, and
then ! began to get uneasy and tried
all kinds of baths and other remedies
that were recommended fo, skin hum

My hair began TO fall out and my
scalp itched all the time. Especially
at night, just as soon as | would get
in bed and get warm, my whole body
would begin to itch and my finger
nails would keep it irritated, and it
was not long before l could not rest
night or day. A friend asked me
to try the Cuticura Remedies, and |
did, and the first application helped
me wonderfully. For about four
weeks l would take hot bath every
night and then apply the Cuticura
Ointment to my whole body; and l
kept getting better, and by the time
l used four boxes of Cuticura | was
entirely cured, and my hair stopped
falling out. d. E. Blankenship, 319
