WHITE PlMPLES ON HEAD

Ransom, Ill.-"The trouble started
on our baby when he was only about
two weeks old. Started like little
white pimples, looked like an old scab
Of blood and matter Els whole head
was covered for few months, then 1t
vent to his ear, shoulders, and his
whole body. It seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head, while
on the other parts Of his body it was
more like water coming out of the
skin. He would scratch until the erup-
ton would be all covered with blood
and gradually spread. The least little
stir or rub would cause the sores to
bleed, spread and itch. Never had a
full nights sleep, restless all night.
"The sores were horrid to look at.
It lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an &C.
zema advertisement in the paper to
use -, but it did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura ONT
ment on thick at bed time and put a
tight hood on so he could not scratch
the sores. Then we washed it clean
with Cuticura Soap and warm water
twice day, and he was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Sulzber-
ger. Dec. 80, 1911.

ASK A 1918 CHILD LABOR DAY
Speeches Are Sought from 5000
Clergymen Who Aided Movement
Last Year.

New York.-The 5000 clergymen
who last year observed Child Labor
day are being asked to speak on that
subject. For seven years the national
child labor committee has issued such
an appeal and. the interest aroused
BY the Iaat Child Labor day resulted
in a general demand for the passing
OF the federal chiiuren's bureau bill,
in Improved child labor laws in ten of
the fourteen states holding legislative
sessions and an increasing use of lec-
ture slides aud exhibits about child
labor
The day has rover been used as an
appeal for funds and this year special
attention is calis9 to child labor in
tenement house manufacturing. The
national child labor committee also re-
minds clergymen t1at child laborers
become unskilled adult workers, and
the Chicago vice commission gives as
the second greatest cHuse why 10000
girls are sacrificed anr'lally to an i'm

dustrial life on unskilled workers, with

BLAME FLEAS FOR REBELLION
Science Spots Real Cause of Mexl-

With Booze and Roulette.

Mexico City.-Following line of
reasoning based upon many years of
experience, scientists announce that
the real cause of the revolutionary
fever in Latin-American republics is
not the desire for glory on the battle
field. but is lodged in the ever-present
flea. 1t is asserted that sleep, undis-
turbed by ravages of parasites, is
practically unknown In Mexico, and
the states further south. For this rea-
son. entomologists contend that the
explosive temperament of the aver
age Latin-American is In part. if not
wholly, due to the fact that restful
slumber departed from the country
long before the conquest. The scien-
fists assert that no nation can he

In Sea Fights They Were Dreaded and
Did Effective Service at
Siege of Tyre.

London.-Nothing in the narrative
of many Old sea fights appeals more
strongly to the modern imagination
than the doings of the fireships.
The idea of using incendiary vessels
for the destruction of hostile fleet
was Of great antiquity. They are
said to have been employed at the
siege of Tyre in 1873 B. c.. and again
by the Rhodesians about a century
and half later. BY the English, how
ever, they were first used in 1870 and
two centuries later had come to be
looked upon as a legitimate naval
weapon, their attacks being regard
ed and dreaded in much the same
way as are those of the torpedo craft
and submarines at the present time.
The explosion vessels, or Infer
nals," invented by the Italian engineer
Gianibelli, were the most formidable.
The designer procured two vessels of
about so tons each and laid along
their bottom a foundation OF brick
work. Upon this he erected a marble
chamber with five foot walls contain
ing 5000 tons Of gunpowder, while on
top of this chamber was six foot
layer of gravelstones placed edge
wise A marble roof rose over these,
and upon it was piled quantity OF
round shot, chain shot, misestones'
blocks of stone, iron shod, milestones,
anything heavy which would cause the
explosion to take lateral effect. Ths
effect OF this floating volcano was ap'
palling. for the masses OF stone and
shot, disintegrated and flung skywards
by the explosive, fell and destroyed
any vessels, buildings or men in the
vicinity.

sci intended to destroy the boom be-

sion tore huge rent in the boom.

There was young minister, the
story ran, who. being poor and hay

away his clothes.
The young minister's district con-
tanned many needy men, and he would
give them shoes and socks. shirts and

Chicago, May 3.-That there are diff

is a conviction of Johnny Evers. Many
times this spring he has proved that
ball games can be won by means of
many base hits. Yesterday he showed
Chicago's fans how they can be won
with few base hits, for his athletes
trimmed Joe Tinker's rufied Reds
to l in a rampant combat in which
the Cubs gathered only four hits.
In order to do that it was necessary
for the west siders to get on the
bases by other means than hitting
the ball. When three rounds had
been fought and the Reds already had
scored a run the Cubs changed their
plan of attack, for in the three rounds
they had discovered a tendency on
the part of Cincinnati's young huTler
to be wild. They had also learned he
was a difficult man 70 hit. The score:
