a clerk in drug store and in later
years he had been a miller. The con-

Sumley. They conducted an apartment

had lived with them for years, paying
small sum for his keep, and always
making himself | useful about the

he presided at the head of the table

Eczema appeared on my sons face.
We went to doctor who treated him
for three months. Then he was so bad
that his face and head We're nothing
but one sore and his ears looked as if
they were going to fall off, so we tried
another doctor for four months, the
baby never getting any better. His
hand and legs had big sores on them
and the poor little fellow suffered so
terribly that he could not sleep. After
he had suffered six months we tried
a set of the Cuticura Remedies and

gone and in two months he had clear

CITY To RECEIVE 4
THOROUGH CLEANING UP

As far as the streets of the city are
concerned, this will be Spotless Town
when the feet is in port, but there are
number of places about the city, prin-
cipally in the outer sections among the
residences. where vacant lots display
their weeds and rubbish piles and
where the yards of untenanted houses
shout for the man with the hoe.
The various improvement clubs have
worked hard in enlisting a popular
support for clean city, and in the
case of the great majority of the
property-owners this work has been
verv successful, the exceptions only
emphasizing the rule. The county and
Territory, too, intend to do their
share.
Road Supervisor Cummins stated last
night that his department would keep
a big gang of street cleaners at work
both before the arrival of the feet and
during the time that the sailors are to
be in the city. The regular road work,
except in the outer districts, will be
discontinued for the week and about
half the road workers will be laid off,
The other half will go into cleaning
gangs and on the street sprinklers. The
work of sweeping will be started every
night at midnight and the main streets
will be gone over so as to be spick
and span every morning.
There are six street sprinklers avail
able. and these will be kept going all
the time during the week.
Along the waterfront the Territory
is in charge of the cleaning up.
Through the courtesy of the High
Sheriff a gang of prisoners has been
turned over to the Department of Pub
lie Works, and this gang has been
cleaning up the government lots along
the front and the sidewalks and roads
adjoining. Clean sand is being spread
on the sidewalks along the front, from
Fort street to Punchbowl, and sand
will also be put on the walks about the
fshmarket. The prison gang will be
kept on the front cleaning during feet
week.
1t only remains for those property
owners who have neglected their duty
so far to get in line and the city will
be in creditable condition from the
front to the crest of Punchbowl.
