HOLY RELIC STOLEN;
AMERICA SUSPECTED

Rome.-An outcry against "Ameri-

ringing throughout the peninsula. This
time, also. the "crime" has been COM
mitted not far from Ascoli, where, as
readers will remember, was stolen
the famous cope of Pope Nicholas,
which was bought in good faith by j..
Pierpont Morgan. who generously re-
turned it to the Italian government
without asking the refunding of what
he had paid.
What caused the present agitation
is the disappearance from Leonessa
| of the heart of st. Joseph, which was
preserved there in an artistic and
historic reliquary. OF course, it is not
the heart of St. Joseph, the father OF
the Virgin Mary, but of another saint
born in Leonessa in 1855, who was
| Capucin monk, and who suffered mar
| tyrdom at the hands of the Turks.

WASHINGTON people on
w coming to Washington for the
first time and about to meet public
official are greatly perplexed as to the
form in which they shall address him.
Naturally uniformity is desired in this
respect by all government officials
and for that reason there is an estab-
hshed manner in which to greet pub
in contact. The social code which
governs social intercourse in the off,
cial set in the national capital sup
plies prescribed form which it is
necessary to follow if one would be
correct in his dealings with officials,
whether of a social or a business ma
ture.
There are some titled officials in the
army and navy who are granted a
higher rank socially by courtesy than
they are actually entitled to. For in
stance. lieutenant commanders in the
navy are. by courtesy, in social life
called commanders, while those below
that rank lose thier official title and
are addressed as plain Mister
The same rule applies to the staff
officers of the navy. Likewise the as
sistant secretaries of executive depart
ments are called Mister" and the
reason for this is obvious 1t is not
an easy matter to introduce a naval
officer by the long and Understanding
title of "lieutenant-command or
to refer to the first lieutenant of an
executive department as Mr.. Assist
ant Secretary" while it would be more

successor could have been found. The
plan to make Senator Lodge ambassa-
dor fell through at the time because
the senator, while not absolutely de-
Ginning, induced Mr.. Roosevelt to hold
the appointment in allegiance.
Even now Senator Lodge may not
be willing to accept it. His senatori-
al term will expire March 4, 1910,
when he will have served II years in
the senate. There is no doubt that
President Taft would be glad to send
the senator to London if he could be
induced to accept
The belief is that Lodge can be re-
elected to the senate if he desires. But
inasmuch as he is of the class from
which ambassadors to Great Britain
have usually been drawn, being a lit
erary man, scholar and historian,
there are allurements about the am
bassadorship that are hard for man
of Senator Lodges type to resist.
There is a growing belief that with
the retirement of Ambassador Reid,
James Bryce, the British ambassador
at Washington, will also be recalled.
The British government, it is report
ed is merely waiting to see the type
of ambassador that the United States
will send to London before a new rep
resentative at Washington is selected.

BOY TORTURED BY ECZEMA

when my boy was six years old, he
suffered terribly with eczema. He
could neither sit still nor lie quietly in
bed, for the itching was dreadful. He
would irritate spots by scratching
with his nails and that only made
them worse. A doctor treated him
and we tried almost everything, but
the eczema seemed to spread. 1t
started in a small place on the lower
extremities and spread for two years
until it very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.
Finally 1 got Cuticura Soap, Cuti-
cura Ointment and Cuticura Pills and
gave them according to directions 1
used them in the morning and that
evening, before I put my boy to bed,
[ used them again and the improve
ment even in those few hours was sur
prising, the Inflammation seemed to
be so much less. I used two boxes of
Cuticura Ointment, the same of the
Pills and the Soap and my boy was
cured. My son is now in his sew
enteenth year and he has never had
a return of the eczema.
Il took care of a friends child that
had eczema on it's face and limbs and
used the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
They acted on the child just as they
did on my son and it has never re-
turned. I would recommend the Cuti-
cura Remedies to anyone. Mrs. A. j.
