MTOLERABLE ITCHING.
Fearful Eczema All Over Baby's Face
professional Treatment Failed.
A Perfect Cure by Cuticura.

when my little girl was six months
old l noticed small red spots on her
right cheek. They grew SO large that
l sent for the doctor but, instead OF
helping the eruption, his ointment
seemed to make it worse. Then l
went to a second doctor who said 1t
was eczema. He also gave me an oint-
ment which did not help either. The
disease spread all over the face and
the eyes began to swell. The itching
grew intolerable and it was a terrible
sight to see. | consulted doctors for
months, but they were unable to cure
the baby. | paid out from $40 to $50
without relief. One evening | began
to use the Cuticura Remedies. The
next morning the baby's face was all
white instead of red. / continued until
the eczema entirely disappeared. Mrs.

CHAPTER vII.-(contlnued).

Then suddenly Michael remember,
ed what the Duchess had told him
when the disappearance OF the little
Duke was first discovered.
He saw in all this the strong hand
Of hate and revenge, which still
stretched away from the little noun
tain kingdom on the Rhine to the
great ducal house In Piccadilly. He
realized the terrible chain of circum.
stances which the years had forged.
the strong, untiring hate, which had
northumberland, until at last
1t should come to the maturity of its
evil, and strike down the young and
lovely woman who had long ago
taken her lover from the hermit
Princess in Germany, and had welded
the fatEer of the missing boy.
1t was Captain Basil Marriott who
broke the silence.
Madam" he said, bowling very low
to the duchess, Il should like, If you
will allow me to devote myself to
this matter, in which | have been so
strangely and suddenly involved"
The duchess smiled a wan but
grateful smile as he said 1t. She
made a gesture with her hand towards
Michael Grant.
Here" she said, "is one gentleman
who has promised himself to my serv-
Ice, and now you, Captain Marriott,
the son of my dear friend, Sir Her
cules, vow %pourself also! God grant
that you two may bring a happy issue
out of this affection"
Grant turned to Marriott, and
placed his hand upon his shoulder.
The two lei looked at each other
with grave intentness, and then, with
a bow to the stricken mother, they
left the room together.

you had better come to my cham

"and We will talk over what is to be
done. There is still a great deal that
we do not understand. This sud-
den and dramatic news about Miss
Decies-"
He stopped suddenly.

that that girl mentioned-Miss Hob

something"
Il somehow felt that she was
speaking sincerely" Marriott an
swered; though, of course, l, know
Ing nothing of the circumstances Of
the ducal household, was not so
struck by the apparent incongruity Of
her story as you were. But 1t is real
ly overwhelming. What has this
mysterious German business got to
do with 1t all?"
"One thing Is quite certain" Grant
answered. grimly that ordinary
means and methods would be of no
use at all in this case. II any solu-
ton of the mystery is TO be found
and II Is essential to discover wheth-
er the young duke is alive OF dead
you and l will have to do IL without
the help or Intervention of any one.
The issues are too grave, the enemy
too highly placed for any ordinary
police methods to be of any use.
Probably II Scotland Yard had sole
charge of this affair the little duke
would never have been heard of
again. / feel confident that this will
not be the Ease now that you and /,
strangely enough. have entered into
the same service. At any rate, we
will do our best"
He spoke these words in a quick,
sharp voice, as il they were the most
mat~ter-of-fact things in the world.
Basil answered him as briefly, but
nevertheless both men were filled
with an intense excitement and a
deep resolve. Being Englishmen,
they ~endeavored to hide 1t, but each
was aware If the others thoughts.
The two men walked to the far end
Of P~iccadilly. and down Grosvenor
place towards Grants fiat. They dis
cussed the matter in all its bearings.
and came to the conclusion that as
yet they had very little to go upon
indeed.
1t was obvious that Miss Decies, or,
rather, the widowed Baroness Won Ra-
venstein. had been at one time init
mately c~ol4hected with the court Of
wohlau 1andskrona- 1t was obvious
hdt for some other reason-what,
they couid not divine-she, and no
one else. had kidnapped the duke.
The only possible explanation which
they could get at was that the baron
ess was still under the influence Of
the Princess Sophia herself, and was
for some reason compelled to do the
evil will Of her august MISTRESS.
It was a working hypothesis. at sTy
rate, though both Of them felt many
links were wanting in the chain Of
their reasoning.
You see." Grant said, 'the whole
thiag has been arranged with such
diabolical cleyerness, and-and GER

Poetry Of Moon
Apqealeth Not to
JOnes--COin Does

A suit was brought yesterday af-
ternoon in the district court which
will set agog the gossips of Gath and
fracture the social circles of Lane
City. Through the lines of the COM
plant can be traced family the
tinkle of glasses, the popping of
corks, the song of the night, and
things which were better whispered
than spoken. The burden Of the COM
plant is based on a story older than
the flow OIL rnyolite in the Robinson
district; the theme of the poets from
beyond the ages of rock, or the rock
of ages.
And the main purport of the suit
is rocks-rocks with the emblem of
the eagle and the stamp of your I'm
Gle Samuel to make them good col
lateral at any bank. Twas ever
thus that love and rocks went hand
in hand, but in this case, it is main
tanned that the rocks are in the
wrong hands, and a transfer is de-
manded.
Twenty thousand dollars is the
size of the rock pile demanded for
the shattering of the affections OF
Mrs. Lille Jones, and the consequent
smashing of the Lares and Penates
of the Jones household. 1t is Samuel
H. Jones Of Lane city who brings the
action, and the man with the rocks is
1. G. Moon. This is not the fair and
tickle Moon Of the Montague regime,
which beautiful Juliet implored her
Romeo not to swear by. Nay, this is

her.

The witness slowed down, and
then proceeded to tell the court thai
she was born in Mississippi, and that
she was washing when she heard the
Autumn Leaves falling, and that she
was 35 years of age. Marvellous wo-
man, she admitted it. She dropped
her clothes-the clothes she was

was put in the tower of the church.
