His face broke out in red spots and then became scaiy. He used to scratch them until he would make them bleed. Then his head started to break out. He was restless at night and com plained of his face being sore. His head was all little cuts from scratching it.
 So 1 thought 1 would send for 8 sample Of the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. 1 only used them for a few days when there was such a change in his looks. His face began to get clear. When the sample was gone | got-one cake Of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment. i washed his face with the Cuticura Soap and warm water every night and morning and applied the Cuticura Ointment for four weeks and his face was cured 1 got another cake of Cuticura Soap and one box Cutieura Oint- nlent and was-eIIy~ using them for two weeks and they made his scalp nice and clean.

SCIENCE NOTES

Tn the litigation over the question of polluting New York harbor with New Jersey sewage, New Jersey has at last come to the conviction that the cleanliness involved in the plans for sewage treatment is well worth the proposed expenditure of money Under the plan proposed the sewage after treatment can be discharged into the New Jersey tidal waters without in jury or offense either to New Jersey or New York The question is one of public health, and as such it is one of the most i'm Cortant of the many siI1i- lar questions which are now before municipalities in various parts of the United States.

CONDITION MORE SERIOUS
THAN AT FIRST THOUGHT

Mexico City, Mex, Nov. 2s.--The
visit OF John Lind, personal repre-
sentative Of President Wilson to Tam
pfco, was first learned of here through
washington It is regarded as a more
serious condition In that region than
was generally thought here to be the
case Owing to the close censorship
only meagre reports are reaching the
federal capital as to the state of af-
fairs in the provinces.
From reports from along the rail-
road it seems that Tampico is the
next place likely to be menaced by
the rebels. News has reached here OF
a. general movement by the rebel forcs
toward that port since General Can
dido Aglliiar, the rebel commander.
demanded the surrender of Tuxpam.
Rear Admiral Fletcher reported by
wire today that only one oil well at
Tuxpam had been shut down, and that
works for non-payment Of assessments
levied by the rebels, none had been
modested No pipe lines, storage. tanks
or oil wells have been DESTROYED or
have been killed, injured or threat
ened, the admiral reported

WOULD ATTACK TOWN.
General AguilIar said in his mes
sages to the federal officials at Tux
pam on Sunday that If the town was
not delivered into his hands the rebel
troops would attack it today. This
report was brought here by refugees
who said that the reply by the colnbi-
nation of the garrison Yves the arrest
Of the rebel messenger.
Preparations were made to with
stand a possible rebel attack. Fed
eral troops are to have reached Tux
pam from Vera Cruz and these with
the other column reported to be on
the way from Tarnpico are regarded
by government officials here as afford
ing ample protection.
Fighting is reported to be IN progress
near Carneros. where a federal troop
train was dynamited yesterday by the
rebels, according to advices from rail-
road circles. Troops rushed from Sal
tillo and Vanegas iound the rebels in
force in the hills. They are said to
have robbed and then burned a freight
train. The rebels are supposed to be
part OF the force which recently took
the city of Victoria. Tamapaulis.

Salt Lake City is about to be ordered
to Ell Paso to patrol the city and re-
lease the cavalry now there to patrol
the international border outside the
city limits. The decision to dispatch
the infantry was reached today after

General Bliss reported uneaSineSS in
Ell Paso in consequence of the renewal
of hostilities below Juarez. He fears
disorders in the event of another bat
tie across the border.
The sufferings of the wounded reb-
els who were brought to Juarez was
borne usually with great fortitude.
With gaping wounds in the head or
chest or with limbs dangling from
bullets and shrapnel wounds the men
sat or lay stolidly on the crude kitchen
tables which the surgeons were using
in their work of dressing the hurts.
