Points in Dispute.

The bone Of contention now carried to
The Hague is the intent of the provisions
Of article OF the British-American treaty
of 1918, defining the fishing rights of
Americans and Canadians off the west
coast of Newfoundland.
Newfoundland holds that the right to
fish in these waters was granted to the
inhabitants of the United States only
The United States contends that it's citi-
zens may exercise this right by going
there in their own vessels with crews Of
Swedes, Canadians or Observation-Disclosures.
The treaty further confines the right of
fishing ito the coast The United States
interprets these words as including the
bays, harbors and creeks. Newfoundland
maintains that Americans may fish only
outside the coast line proper.
Minor Matters in Issue.
There are further subsidiary points in
dispute.
Senator Root. who arrived in London
yesterday. is on his way to The Hague
where he goes as one Of the American
commissioners before the tribunal. He Is
accompanied by several lawyers of inter-
national experience.

being no small boys in his aunt's fam

trimmings around the neck and on the

that girl she was marrying man with

to dress herself without the assistance
of maid. and the only time she has
ever had the broom In her hands was
one day when she picked It up to hit

RAW ECZEMA ON HANDS

'I had eczema on my hands for ten
years. I had three good doctors but
none Of them did any good. then
used one box of Cuticura Ointment
and three bottles Of Cuticura Resolvent
and was completely cured. My hands
were raw all over, inside and out, and
the eczema was spreading all over my
body and limbs. Before had used one
bottle, together with the Cuticura
Ointment. my sores were nearly
healed over, and by the time. had
used the third bottle, was entirely
well. To any one who has any skin
or blood disease I would honestly ad-
wise them to fool with nothing else,
but to get Cuticura and get we'll. My
hands have never given me the least
bit of trouble up to now.
my daughters hands this summer
became perfectly raw with eczema.
She could get nothing that would do
them any good until she tried Cuti-
cura. She used Cuticura Resolvent
and Cuticura Ointment and in two
weeks they were entirely cured

Pearls from New York State.

Several years ago Henry Bailey OF
Bridgewater gave to the Oneida Coun-
ty Historical society collection OF
shells which he had secured from his
pond. At the same time he gave to
his daughter, Mrs. Charles Kerlief OF
Ilion, one of the shells which seemed
pretty one. And two weeks ago she
perceived what was taken to be
pearl in this shell, and to make sure
Of its nature the find was shown to n
jeweler in Utica. It was pronounced
a pink pearl, and It is said that II de-
tached from the shell 1t would be
worth from s75 to 500.
II is by no means rare thing to
find pearls in the shells taken from
local waters. Many shells have been
brought down from Adirondack waters
with fairly good pearls In them. and
a few years ago some were discovered
in Fish creek which were valuable.
The worth of pearl depends not
alone on it's size, but more particular
ly upon its shape and color. A>good
pearl must be either round. pearl.
shaped or perfect oval. Il is be-
cause most of the pearls found In
local waters fail to fill some of these
requirements that they are not rated
as especially valuable jewels.-Utica

TRUTH NOT ALWAYS SOUGHT
One is Too Frequently Apt to Be
swayed by His Friendship and
His Enmities.

A person should always make up
his mind more carefully upon a mat
ter in which an enemy is interested
than where the personal element is no
part of it. Unless he does this he
will be apt to think his enemy is
wrong. His prejudice then. rather
than his judgment. will rule.
And the case Is the same II
friend is interested. That one fact
may control ones judgment. 1t is
ordinary experience for a man to take
sides with his friend. and 1t Is often
done without considering whether he
is right or not, In which case a man
regards friendship as stronger than
truth
Friendship is the most beautiful
fact In human experience. and to say
he is my friend" is saying a great
'deal. But II is saying great deal
more to say "he is right" and stand
by him for that. than solely for
friendships sake. This does not make
friendship cold-hearted. AS Cassius
said to Brutus: "a friend will bear a
friends infirmities;" and even those
infirmities out of which faults grow.
but not the faults.
But our great concern should be
In dealing with those whom we do
not like. lest our opinion is swayed
by prejudice or malice. Truth should
be the arbiter In all cases. There is
nothing so fine In mans character
as fran!>ness to a friend or enemy.
Such trait always proves its high
merit. by the sense of pleasure II
gives one when 1t is exercised One
of the best things to make a man
think is to be frank with him; II he
Is right. to say so; II he is wrong, to
say so, whether he is a friend OF
enemy. And this. not in any con.
troversial spirit, but simply as the
expression of ones good will, which
is always in order.-Ohio State Jour
nal.
