FEARFUL BURNING SORES.

Boy in Misery Twelve Years-Eczema
in Rough Scales, Itching and In
Manufactured by Cuticura.
"Cuticura has put a stop to twelve
years Of misery I passed with my son.
As an infant 1 noticed on his body a
red spot and treated same with differ
ent remedies for about five years, but
when the spot began to get larger put
him under the care Of doctors. Under
their treatment the disease spread to
four different parts Of his body. Dur
Ing the day it would get rough and
form like scales. At night it would be
cracked, inf1amed and badly swollen,
with terrible burning and itching. One
doctor told me that my sons eczema
was incurable, and gave 1t up. I de-
cided to give Cuticura a trial. When
had used the first box Of Cuticura Oint-
ment there was a great improvement,
and by the time l had used the second
set Of Cuticura Remedies my child was
cured. He is now twelve years old, and
his skin is as fine and smooth az silk.

Many women are bleaching their

do not care to go to this length, are

been here frequently, but she never be-
fore has made quite such a sensation.
She looks utterly unconscious Of the
admiration she arouses-or Is it utter
" Indifferent? Nor somehow does she
convey the impression Of being partic-
ularly happy. Her thoughts often
seem far away from the gayety in
which she is the bright particular star.

like a cloud, careworn expression
that makes her appear, for the few
moments that it lasts, years older.

In a bookstore.

A fashionably dressed young woman

statement, II want to get a book-its
a red book-not very thick No, 1 don't

those books-it was thicker than that
one and more on the cerise shade than
that one.
"Well, can't wait any longer for
you to hunt 1t up"

hard work she would get such pains
that she would have to lie down for
the rest of the day.

An American woman, Mrs. John ia

season, writes a correspondent. Wher-

about room. Her height, her snowy
hair over such fresh young face, her
amazing gowns and historic jewels

for originality and beauty never have
seen surpassed On the first occasion
she wore q costume of silvesy scales
which fitted her figure close, giving the
Idea of some wondrous mermaid from
the deep. The top Of the bodice was
filed in with flmy lace, suggestive Of
foam, and at her throat was the En-
press Eugenie's famous pendant OF
blazing diamonds.
On the other occasion she was attlr-

seemed to swathe her figure, revealing

origin OF Curtain Calls.

The first curtain call took place on
the evening of Feb. 26, 1743. On that
memorable evening Yoltaire's "DIe-
rope was performed for the first time
in Paris The author was known to the
Paris public, but nothing that they had
seen of his had pleased them so much
as "EIerope," and the enthusiasm found
expression in noisy demands to see the
author. In a letter VOltaire says this
of the incident: ''They dragged me out
and led me by force to the box occu-
pied by the Duchess de Villars and
her daughter-in-law. The whole thea
ter seemed to have gone mad-all
shouted to the duchesse to kiss me.
The noise became so great that the
lady finally obeyed. So l was, like
Alain Charter, publicly kissed, but he
was asleep, while 1 was wide awake"
Now authors answer similar calls by
appearing before the curtain. They
gain in SO far that they can be seen
better by their audience, but they must
dispense with the duchess's kiss-at
least in public.-Berliner Tageblatt.

MISSION AT AN END.
British Governor Refuses Aid for
Suffering Kingston.

Kingston, Jamaica, Jan. 22.-Rear
Admiral Davis mission of mercy to
stricken Kingston came to an abrupt
,and painful conclusion in consequence
of Governor Swettenham' objection
to the presence of American sailors en-
gagged in the work of clearing the
streets, guarding property and succor-
ing the wounded and sick, eliminating
in letter to the admiral, peremptorily
requesting him to re-embark all parties
which had been landed.
Admiral Davis was greatly shocked
and panied, and paid a formal visit to
Governor Swettenham, informing him
that the United States battleships Mis-
souri, and Indiana and the gunboat
Yankton would sail.
To the Associated Press Admiral
Davis said that immediate compliance
with Governor Swettenham' request
was the only course consistent with the
dignity of the United States.
The friction between the governor
and the admiral began with the arrival
of the American warshins, when the
governor objected to the firing of sa-
lutte in his honor on the ground that
the citizens might mistake the firing
for new earthquake. He also de-
cared there was no necessity for Amer
lean aid-that his government was fully
able to preserve order, tend to the
wounded and succor the homeless.
