FOUND A WAY
To Be Clear Of Coffee Troubles.

Husband and myself both had the
coffee habit. and finally his stomach

was due to coffee and after some dis.

FACE IN ONE SOLID RASH

Lindsay, Mont.-'I started to get
great big blotches round my neck and

worse all the time and such an intense
itching. 1t never gave me minutes
rest. The pimples were red and would
swell. From itching, and scratching
them so 1t caused them to spread:
there would be sores from scratching
them so intensely. My face and neck
were covered with pimples. 1t looked
as II my whole face was in one solid
rash or sore, and was nearly crazy
with itching and burning. At night
they would be very bad SO ! hardly

II bought one cake Of Cuticura Soap

They Say on Stand.

The defence of the marlborough Rapid
Transit Company in the suit brought
against II and its directors by the Cont
rental Securities Company began yester-
day before Justice Van Siclen in the SUI
preme Court, Brooklyn. A number Of

companies which built and operated the
subways.
The witnesses were uniformly emphatic
in saying that the Belmont banking house
was reasonable i'm its charges and that a
bonus of 1900 shares OF 1nterborough
stock was not too much for its services.
The witnesses called were William 3. Par
sons, II. II. Vreeland. Albert u. Board
man, Alfred Skitt, Walter G.. Oakman ana
Andrew Freedman.
Mr. Freedman said that he was the man

SEES PROSPERITY IN GERMANY
Industrial Future Bright, Says Pro-
fessor Rathgen.

Professor Karl T. n Rathgen, the
Kaiser Wilhelm Professor of Germanic
Institutions at Columbia University. de-
livered his first lecture yesterday after
noon before large audience. He spoke
on economics in Kent Hall Professor
Rathgen said he was here not only to tell
what German economic resources WERE
but also TO clear up misapprehensions as to
the nature of Germany's wealth and the
empires economic position In the world.
Professor Rathgen said Germany no
longer was debtor nation. but now was
one OF the greatest creditor nations IN
the world inasmuch as thousands OF mill
ions of German money was invested IN
enterprises in other countries.
Germany, he asserted, was the fastes'
growing Industrial country in the world.
and the present high position winch II
had attained among the nations was only
an indication of what it was to be IN the
future.

BENSEL'S PENSION SHOCKS
$500 a Year To Be Paid by
Health Employees.

As much Of a shock to the employees OF
the Department of Health as was the re-
tirement on Wednesday OF DR.. Walter
Bensel, sanitary superintendent, still
greater shock was in store for them.
This is one that will touch the purse
strings and pockets OF employees for some
time to come. unless the Bensel pension
Of $500 year is held up.
For IL is TO that extent that DR.. Bensel
will continuously remind himself TO friends
and foes in the department. Unlike some
city departments, that presided over by
Health Commissioner Lederle maintains
its own pension fund. The taxpayer at
large is not the one TO worry in this case.
AS one employee said yesterday:
"Bensel is only wished on us. We are
to be his meal ticket
Some Of the employees are nursing their
grudge In silence. They are afraid to
protest II they don't care to contribute
to Dr. Bensel's pension they need not do
so, but such a course. II pursued, would
mean their elimination from the pension
list. and some have been paying in for
years.
The nurses and clerks" said an en-
ploye. will pay much OF the Bensel pen
sion"
When asked TO explain the workings OF
the pension fund in the department an
official yesterday said employees Of the de-
partment who wanted to do so contributed
per cent of their salary for that pur-
pose. At the expiration Of twenty years
service an employe could ask TO be re-
tired at half pay. He said. however that
there was some provision in the charter
which gave the board OF trustees power

IRON ORE CORNER DENIED
Geologist Tells of Rich Deposits
in Northern Brazil.

The most interesting testimony AT the
hearing yesterday Of the government suit
against the United States Steel Corpora
ton came from William n. Merriam, ex-
pert geologist for the defendant concern.
David Reed, attorney for the Steel Cor
poration, attempted to show in his direct
examination of the witness that a corner
in iron ore was an achievement next to
impossible.
He led the witness inst into a discus
sion Of the iron deposits in the Lake Su-
perior region Mr. Merriam was sure that
new mining ground could be developed
there. lie said this region produced $780,
0O0.0 900 tons In 1912. and after the ship
ment of this product remained among the
very best ore lands in the world.
Would It be possible to get a corner
in one in the district" he was asked.
IAN almost impossible task, imagine"
he replied, las new ores would always be
coming up, and the only way to keep the
corner would be to keep buying"
He was still more emphatic. however,
about the permanence Of competition arts

he had examined just north Of Rio de

available ore there at 100000, 900 or s.
