BUT CUTICURA WORKS
A MIRACULOUS CURE

"When my little boy was six month!
old he had eczema. The sores extended
20 quickly over tho whole body that
we at once called in the doctor. We
then went to another doctor, but he
could not help him, and in our despair
came so bad that he had regular holes in
his cheeks, large enough to put finger
Into. The food had to be given With
= spoon, for his mouth was covered
with crusts as thick as finger, and when
ever he opened the mouth they began
to bleed and suppurate, a. did also his
eyes. Hands, arms, chest, and back, in
short tho whole body was covered over
and over. We had NO rest by day or
bed, We had to pin his hands down,
otherwise he would scratch his face and
make an open sore. think his face
must have itched most fearfully.
I'VE finally thought nothing could
help, and had made up my mind to
send my wife with the child to Europe.
hoping that the sea air might cure him,
MEDICAL as was there e ur Ied s0Ss
blessed, matters came differently, and
we soon saw q miracle. A friend Of
ours spoke about Cuticura. We made
a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment,
and Resolvent, and within ten days or
two weeks We noticed q decided i'm
provement. just as quickly as the
sickness had appeared it also began to
disappear, and within ten weeks the
child was absolutely well. and his skin
was smooth and white e. never before.

ARE JAP FISHING
BOATS UNsEAWORTBY2

| Owing to frequent inquiries every
time a storm arises at sea as to wheth-
err or not any of the japanese fishing
sampans leaving Honolulu harbor for
the fishing grounds between Oahu and
Molokai have been lost, the following
from the Kobe Herald is of interest:
| The Kokumin has published in its
English column a lengthy letter from
Mr.. Alan DIVISION. of Yokohama, in
which that gentleman suggests that
| the frequency of disasters to japanese
craft is due to the unseaworthy quail
ties of the vessels employed. He
writes in part as follows
NV experience. has caused me to
ponder deeply on this subject, and
have come to the conclusion that the
time has arrived for the introduction
of an altogether better type of fishing
craft, il not for shorework, where sea-
worthiness is of less Importance, at
any rate for the deep sea and other
fisheries which must be conducted far
from a haven. One great falling OF
the Japanese fishing craft, apart from
want of seaworthiness in heavy wealth
er, is it's requiring a large crew to
propel it, and not having sufficient
carrying capacity for food and water
for SO many men. In consequence OF
this such craft cannot keep the sea
for more than a week at the outside
and If storm blows them Stewards
they cannot get back, as unless the
men have sufficient food and water
their strength fails them and they cam
not row. A friend of NINE was with
the fleet which was blown off the
coast of Sendai last winter. He got
back safely, but for seven days he had
only had one bowl of rice per day. I
leave it to your readers to imagine
what would have happened to that
fleet had it met with another storm
before it could reach port Having
diagnosed a disease it is next in order
to suggest a remedy, and am of opin-
ion that the remedy in the present
case is to be found in the Introduction
of fishing boats on the lines of the IA
nous Scotch craft, which are SO noted
for their specially seaworthy qualities;
but to bring them up to date they
should be fitted with auxiliary motors
to enable them to go to and from the
fishing grounds in calm weather with
out carrying large crews to row them.
Such boats could remain at sea for
weeks instead of days, could be work
ed by less than half the crew, could
make port in a calm or ride out a
storm at sea. The first cost of the
boats would be greater but the small
crews would be a saving, and they
would be able to work on many days
in the year when the present craft
lie weather bound.
