sour little girl was two months old
when she got rash on her face and
within five DAYS her face and head were
all one sore. We used different reme-
dies but il got worse instead of better
and we thought she would turn blind
and that her ears would fall of. She
suffered terribly, and would scratch
until the blood came. At night We
had TO pin her hands down. This
went on until she was five months old,
then l had her under our family doc
tors care, but she continued TO grow
worse. He said it was eczema, When
she was seven months old started to
use Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment,
and Cuticura Resolvent, and in three
weeks - what a changel l kept using
the Cuticura Remedies for two months
and our baby was a different girl. You
could not see a sign Of a sore and she
was as fair as a newborn baby, and all
for the small cost of dollar and seventy

times the money for doctoring. She
is now two years old and has not had
sign Of the eczema since. Mrs. H. +.

the Pacific Coast company had changed their schedule trenching upon that of the Alaska steamship company. He declared the Alaska steamship com pany was operating on the schedule 1t had advertised early in the winter and which was intended to distribute the boats salliugs at reasonable intervals.
 Mr. Lowle, agent of the Canadian Pacific company, said lthas the sailings of the Princess May were advertised long before that of the schedule of the American con panies was announced. The Canadian company laid it's own plans independently of the American companies as 1t was directed more especially at the Canadian service, but that 1t had held constantly to the schedule announced. He had under stood there was au arrangement made last fall between the two American companies to distribute their sailinGs SO us to give the upper country aressona- ble mail service as we'll as to supply the people with fresh estables, but the agreement be thought had been broken on both sides.
 This was as far as any information could be gained from the local agents coucerning the queer conduct of the steamship companies over which the people have been making loud and deep complaint.

MISERABLE MAIL SERVICE
WHAT THE STEAMSHIP lGENTs SAY

Why the companies should run their boats oa a schedule that brings them here all on or about the same day, leav- ing the people to wait intervals of from a week to ten days for their mail and merchandise has been one of the myS- teries of the winter that has tretted the whole people of SOuth-Esstern Alaska.
 On Sunday last the Alaska Steam ship steamer Jefferson arrived h the afternoon; the Pacific Coast Steamship compauy's steamer Cottage City arrived the same evening. The Canadian PAc- fife Steamship Company's steamer Princess May arrived on the Friday night proceeding. Thus the three ships through which we communicate with the rest ot the world were punched within orty-eight hours, after we had waited without mail for ten days. The next boat to arrive is the Princess May ou tue 26,h, ten days after the arrival of the last and the boat to follow her is the Jefferson, ou the 27tb.-uext day.
 The question was put to Mir. Frank Stuart, agent tor the Pacific Coast Steamship company as to why the Cottage City was landed here on the same day the Jefferson arrived. Mir. Stuar, has not the making of the schedule of course. He said the difficulty lay, as be understood it, in the fact that the companies run their boats oa different schedules: that is the Paci- fc Coast operates under a fourteen day schedule, the Alaska Steamship com pany under an eleven day and the Can adiau Pacific under a fourteen day schedule. This, he says, naturally brings them together sometimes. The Pacific Coast schedule was knocked out Of shape by the accident to the Cottage City which laid her of late in Decem- Der. He said tbe Alaska Steamship company had changed their schedule moro than once during the winter, this conflicting with the original plans for the service.
 Mir, Elliott, acting agent for the AL aska steamship company, declared that

MAY START LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Ruling of Thompson Fund trustees
Causes Much Feeling.

The refusal of the Thompson fund trus,
tees 10 assist Miss Blanche NJ. Howard
who sustained fracture OF both knee
caps Dec 3d. necessitating serious OPP
Grafton. is likely to result in legal pro-
ceedings. Miss Howard made application
to Mrs. Frank A. Wells, agent OF the
fund, for assistance, setting forth that
she had been seamstress for hve years
in the employ of the local overall fac
tory and in the millinery store OF Don
nell & Davis. She further said that 1t
had been impossible to accumulate any
thing above her living. The matter was
referred TO r. NJ. Bradley, one OF thu,
trustees OF the fund, by Mrs. Wells and
letter from him says that the trustees
cannot in Justice to their trust assist
Miss Howard for the reason that she did
NOT avail herself of the privilege OF the
Memorial hospital. He says further that
the trustees have rule that however
worthy case may be and whatever the
conditions are, they will not have any
thing to do with any surgical case that
does not come under the supervision OF
the Memorial hospital staff, ne closes
his letter by saying that while the trus-
tees sympathize with Miss Howard IN
her misfortune and believe that she and
her family have been the victims of mis-
taken advisors they cannot render her
assistance.

Doesn' t Want to Be Governor This Year

The report of the secretary OF the ma
tional grange, C. NJ. Freeman of Tippe-
canoe City. o., shows that in the quarter
lust closed more oranges were organized
in Vermont than in any two other states.
The record for the whole country was
65. distributed as follows:> Vermont, IA;
Iowa. 7; Kentucky and Oregon, s each;
Colorado, Massachusetts and Rhode Is
land, each; Pennsylvania, 3; Maine;
Maryland, Missouri, New York, OHIO and
Washington, each; Illinois, New Hamp,,
shire, New Jersey, West Virginia and
Tennessee, l each. The gratifying result
in Vermont is attributed to the efforts
of State Master George w. Pierce, OF
Brattleboro in having two organizing dep
uties in the field. Several more oranges
have been organized in the state within
few days, bringing the total since Oeto-
Der l up to 90. The last issue of the Ma
tional Grange, the official organ OF the
Patrons of Husbandry, contains sketch
and half-tone cut of State Master Pierce.
The closing lines are as follows: The
persistence of the state press in discuss
ing Mr.. Pierce as an available candidate late
for the gubernatorial nomination in l9os
has impelled him to make announcement
that he will not be candidate for the
nomination this year. In short, MIR.
Pierce might with singular appropriate
ness be called one of the rising men In
his state and in the order"
