ITCHING HUMOR
ON LITTLE BOY
His Hands were a Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over His Body
In Four Days the Child was
Entirely Cured-Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTICURA
SOAP AND OINTMENT

zone day we noticed that our little
boy was all broken out with itching
sores. We first noticed it on his little
hands. His hands were not as bad
then, and we didn't think anything
serious would result. But the next day
we heard Of the Cuticura Remedies being
so good for itching sores, ETC., that l
thought / would get them. By this
time the disease had spread all over his
body, and his hands were nothing but
a solid mass Of this itching disease. 1
went to the drug store and purchased
a box Of Cuticura Soap and one box Of
Cuticura Ointment, and that night l
stripped my little boy and took the
Cuticura Soap and lukewarm water and
washed him well. Then | dried him
with a soft bath towel, and took the
Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him
thoroughly with it. / did this every
evening before / put him to bed and in
three or four nights he was entirely
cured. You have my permission to
publish this because anybody who suf-
fered as my baby did ought to know Of
the Cuticura Remedies | will surely
and gladly recommend the Cuticura
Remedies, for they are godsend to all

CASTS DoUBToN DIVORCE
OF PEDER S. BRUGUIERE
Gump Says Former Wife Will
DENY She Deserted Physician

S. &. G. Gump company, in their en-
deavor TO force the payment by Peder
S. Bruguiere, the physician and artist,
of a bill of $3.50 incurred by his wife.
Maryon. after they had quarreled and
parted, have cast doubt upon the valid
ity of the divorce obtained in Nevada
by Bruguiere. Milton Schmitt, attorney
for the Gump company. filed an AFFIDAVIT
by A L. Gump, yesterday, asserting
that he has reason to believe Bruguiere
got the divorce fraudulently.
Gump says in his affidavit he has
been informed the former Mrs. Bru-
guiere will testify that she never de-
serted Bruguire, as is asserted in the
decree of divorce granted the physi-
clan, and that he never had any just
reason or legal ground for divorce.
Upon the strength of this affidavit
Schmitt moved for a continuance of the
case. The judge will decide the motion
Monday.
Under the law a husband is not re-
sponsible for debts contracted by his
wife after she has deserted him. The
Gump company wishes to prove Mrs.
Bruguiere did not desert her husband
in order to hold the latter responsible
for the $3.50 worth of art goods she
purchased.

CITY'S TRANSCRIPT ON
APPEAL NOW READY
Higher Court Asked to Rule on
Water Front Controversy

OAKLAND, Nov. S.-Another step to-
ward the final settlement of water front
litigation has been made by the COM
pletion of the transcript on appeal in
the case of the city against the Oakland
water front company, covering what is
known as the street end case.
The question to be taken to the SUI
prcme court is whether the city of Oak
land is entitled to four streets through
to the water front, as decided by Judge
Ogden, or whether the citys claim to
three dedicated streets is correct under
the law. 1t was this point that formed
the basis of the retrial of the water
front case when it was sent back from
the supreme court
The original question of title to the
lands between low tide and high tide
lines was decided in favor of the Oak
land water front company, Judge Og-
denis decision for the city having been
reversed. All that remains. to be finally
adjudicated is the street question.
The original transcript on appeal in
this case was destroyed in the San
Francisco fire. 1t has been rewritten
and is now ready to be submitted
through the efforts of William r. Davis,
chief counsel for the city in the water
front litigation, assisted by III. A. Powell
and William Lair HILL
