WILD TRIBE OF POETS.
Picturesque People That Are Found In
the Philippines.

Among the wild tribes to be found
in the Philippines are the Bogobos.
the most picturesque people in the
tropics. Their origin is unknown.
and all sorts OF opinions have been
expressed concerning them. One tale
told OF them is that their first ances-
tors were all poets and musicians.
and that the dislike for the practical
which is always noticeable among
them has come down through the gen.
erations.
Those that have taught among the
Bogobos say that given song or
a poem to learn and they will study
and dream over 1t for hours. but give
the Bogobo a problem in arithmetic
and he Immediately becomes Ill and
wants to go home.
Living at Santa Cruz. In the Davao
district. is Miss Benedict, a Chicago
university woman. who is collecting
everything peculiar to the Bogobo.
1t has been found that the bead
work done by them is quite like that
OF the American Indian. but there is
no other likeness in the races be-
yond that.

my wife had eczema for five or six
years. 1t was on her face and would
come and go. We thought we would
give the Cuticura Remedies trial. We
did so and she has never had a sign OF
eczema for four years. l myself used
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
some time ago for falling hair. l now
have very heavy head OF hair. We
used Cuticura Remedies for our baby,
who was nearly bald when young. She
has very nice hair now. She is very
fieshy. and We had SO much trouble
with heat that we would bathe her
with Cuticura Soap and then apply
Cuticura Ointment, 1t would dry the

The government OF the federal dis
trict is considering the most practical
and lawful way to remove the pulque
shops from the central part OF the City
OF Mexico.
The government has not given IL
censes to establish any new pulque
shops In the central section OF the
city, and as soon as any OF the Jul
Querias are closed on account OF the
end OF the contract for rent or any
other cause. the government cancels
the license But there are some OF
those shops. the owners Of which have
contracts for rent covering ten, fifteen
and twenty years. and some of them
are owners Of the buildings occupied.
The government in this case can
not count on the ending Of the con-
tract to close the shops. and is con
sidering another way to remove them
from that part Of the city and still re-
spect the rights of the proprietors.-

and requires great patience.

The best way Is to wet the stain.

OF soap and then scrape chalk on the
place: put the article in the sun and
keep 1t sprinkled with water: renew
the soap and the chalk and the wetting
from time to time and the stain will
come out: rinse we'll.
The sunlight kills the plant and
bleaches the fbers. Bleaching DOW wer
or jayelle water may be tried In cases
OF advanced growth. but success can
not be assured. Handkerchief are es-
pecially liable to mildew.
Old mildew stains may be removed
by rubbing yellow soap on both sides
and afterward laying on very thick
starch which has been dampened; rub
