Meaning Of the Order.

The dispatch of the British squadron
to Piraeus is indicative of the determi- :
nation of the interested powers-Great
Britain Russia France and ItaIy-to
assure strict adherence to the agree
ment under which the international
forces were Withdrawn from Crete.
At that time the Cretans solemnly
promised to take steps against the
sovereignty of Turkey. The recent deci-
sion OF King George of Greece to con-
woke national assembly was followed
by reports that the Cretans would at
tempt to send delegates to that body.
This caused uneasiness at Constantinople,
and it is understood that the Turkish
government informed the powers pro-
tecting the island that if the Cretans
were admitted to the Greek national as
.sembly such action would be regarded

0H|0ANS At WHITE HOUSE
POLITICAL SITUATION IN THE
STATE DISCUSSED.
Republican Leaders Trying to Pick

The Ohio political situation. from its
many aspects, was thrashed over at a

noon. those with the President being

campaign: Walter +. Brown, republican II

Most of the important federal appoint t
ments in the state have been settled and
the republican leaders there are trying
to get together upon a man satisfactory

Exchange of Views.

Tile situation was the subject of an ex-
change of views at London yesterday,
several ambassadors and ministers con-
ferring with Sir Edward Grey. the Brit
ish foreign secretary.
a semi-official statement issued at
Athens last night declared that the
anxieties excited in Turkey were ground
less and that the assembly had been con-
voked precisely because it's sitting would
defer the date Of the parliamentary cleo
tions. which otherwise might have given
the Cretans an opportunity to realize their
ambition to send deputies to Athens.
Nevertheless the movement of the British
vessels makes clear that the powers con-
cerned do not propose to permit any
action threatening peace in the near-east
or in any other way disturbing the status
quo.

Desire to Defeat Harmon.

If Harmon cannot he beaten for an
other term his political future may clash
with that of President Taft and it is
the intense desire of the republican lead
ers to defeat him next November EN-
bryo consideration OF the proper man TO
defeat him, il possible. has been going
on for several months and there will be
numerous conferences from this time on
with the same object in view.
The situation is apparently growing
more favorable to the republicans in the
settlement of factional differences and in
the unanimity with which the party in
the state is supporting President Taft.
But even with that ii is admitted that
Gov. Harmon has splendid chances OF
winning and that if the democrats put up
good candidates for congressman they
may take a good many republican seats
in November.

AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years age, some
form OF humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
it grew steadily worse until. when l
combed my hair, the scalp became
raw and the ends of the comb-teeth
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolerable itching,
l n a painful, burning way, very much
as a bad, raw burn, If deep, will itch
and smart when first beginning to
heal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tan
gled terribly because of the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worse
and over half my hair fell out. l was
In despair, really afraid of becoming
totally bald.
Sometimes the pain was so great
that. when partially awake, I would
scratch the worst places SO that my
hnger-tips would be bloody. l could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
q short time. that awful singing pain
would commence and then l would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
q toilet soap before, l now decided to
order a set of the Cuticura Remedies
-Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.
l used them according to directions
for perhaps six weeks. then left of,
as the disease seemed to be eradi-
Gated, but toward spring. eighteen
months ago. there vas a slight re-
turn of the scalp humor. l COM
menced the Cuticura treatment at
once, SO had very little trouble. On
my scalp l used about n half a cake
of Cuticura Soap and half a box of
Cuticura Ointment in all. The first
time took six or seven bottles of Gu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles-neither an expensive or te-
dious treatment. Since then l have
had no scalp trouble of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, 1t
comes to my knees and had 1t not been
for Cuticura I should doubtless be
wholly bald.
This is a voluntary, unsolicited tes.
timonial and l take pleasure in writing
1t, hoping my experience may help
someone else. Miss Lillian Brown,

Increase Of sanatorIa and Hospitals
for Consumptives Is Most
Gratifying.

The growth of the crusade against
tuberculosis in the United States is
shown to good advantage in the two
directories that have been issued by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis and
the one in preparation. The first tu-
berculosis directory published in 1904,
by the tuberculosis committee of the
New York Charity Organization socie-
ty and the National Association listed
1873 sanatoria and hospitals for con.
sumptives in the United States, for
some of which preliminary provision
only has been made. The combined
capacity of these institutions was only
5000 beds. Thirty-two special dis
~pensaries and thirty-nine anti-tubercu-
losis organizations summed up prac-
tically all Of the fighting force emu
merated in the first directory. The
second directory was prepared by the
National Association for the study and
Prevention Of tuberculosis and pub
lished under the auspices of the Rus
sell Sage Foundation in August, 1908.
This directory listed 240 s~anatoria and
hospitals, an increase of 107 from the
former directory; 1853 dispensaries, an
increase of 1926; and 1876 associations,
an increase of 1856. The number Of
hospital beds listed in 1908 was 14,O14.
The e directory that will be is
sued soon, will list over 400 sanatoria
and hospitals with a bed capacity of
nearly $4,000; more than 800 special
tuberculosis dispensaries; and fully
$50 anti-tuberculosis associations and
committees. Since the first directory
was issued in 1904, the increase in
the number of agencies fighting con
sumption aggregates nearly 500 per
cent.
The National Association for the
Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis
would like to get in touch with all
agencies engaged in the fight against
tuberculosis, in order hat they may
be listed in the directory.

line, there were only three double
named executives - John Quincy

James Knox Polk.

to manhood, and SO has a positive
value. During the time of the civil
war and just after hundreds of par.

Such instances have, however, been
uncommon for the past so years. The
middle name has become well-nigh
universal. Sometimes the case arises
OF a man prominent in public life or
literature leaving of his first name

enough applications are in to indicate

AS it becomes increasingly difficult to

AFTER the performance of Miss No

ed that they be given what money
they had coming to them, as they had

to their homes in Ohio.
The girls are the Harrington sisters,
Nina and Vera, and their reason for
going home on such short notice was
that they were convinced that the
world was coming to an end when it
became enveloped in the tail of the
comet Wednesday, and they said that
they desired to die with their parents
whom they have neglected considera

whom they desire to be at the end.
