ECZEMA ON CHILD'S FACE

Marpleton, W. Va.-"When my little
boy was one year old he broke out in
little fine plmples all over his face.
At times they would dry up and get
scaly and peel of, then they would
break out fresh again He would
scratch them until his face would be
raw. The eczema looked angry and
ran blood and corruption. His face
was red and dlsfgured. He seemed
restless and had to be up with him
the greater part OF the nights.
Il applied various remedies without
result. He continued TO break out
with the eczema until sent for some
Cuucura Soap and Ointment. l used
them and the first application eased
him. In ten days he was completely

London.-The darkest war cloud
which has appeared on the European
horizon since Germany sent warships
to Aeadir in 1911 has arisen. The
Servian government has refused to
comply with Austrias demands, the
most humiliating ever asked of an in
dependent nation. for the eXpiatiOn
of the SaraievO murders, for which
Austria holds anti-Austrian cOnspira-
cies in Servia responsible, and for
guarantees of future good behavior.
When the Austro-HunGarian ulti-
matum expired Saturday the Servian
premier handed the Austrian minis
ter at Belgrade Servias reply. The
minister Immediately severed diplo-
matte relations and started home.
The developments now appear to
furnish new proof that Austria is de
termined TO make war on Servia. The
possibilities of a general European
war seem greater than ever have con
fronted the present generations.
The Servian reply TO the Austro-
Hungarian ultimatum was an accept
ance of almost all the imperious de-
mands except that Austrian officials
shall participate in the investigation
and fixed the responsibility for the
anti-Austrian propaganda. Servia pro
posed an appeal to the powers at The
Hague for the settlement of that fea-
ture.
Notwithstanding this humiliating
surrender, which was more than Eu-
rope expected of the proud little ma
ton, the Austrian government gave
the Servian minister his passports.
Austria committed an act of war by
arresting the chief of the Servian gen.
eral staff. General Putnik, near Buda-
pest.

She need not have added the last.
Dolby had not lived with her five

examined his face carefully.
He could not doubt that the patches
of hair did resemble, as he had been
often told, certain pictures of his sa-
tanic majesty which were popular dur
ing the opera season. There were
spots here and there like GASES in a
desert. There was no esprit de corps
about his beard, each particular hair
being bent on running its own way.
On Sunday, Dolby refused to go to
church. That afternoon he sneaked
out OF the house for a walk. The
wind was blowing a gale, but he
bravely paced down the street for sew
eral blocks. At a corner several VI
chins were playing some game.
Say, mister one Of them yelled as
he passed.

said Dolby kindly.
"Ain't you afraid to take your whis-

door. The next day he dragged him

render was inevitable. On Wednes-
day the fiOorwalker, whose magnif-
cent beard is one of the choicest
things in that store, stopped at Dol

You'll make it."

appear unconscious OF his meaning.

London.-An engagement between
Austrians and Servians is reported to
have occurred on the Danube, and it
is not believed to have been Of i'm
portance. Austria has not yet opened
her military operations, so far as can
be learned
Meanwhile diplomacy is proceeding
along two separate lines to avert the
war if possible, and if that is impos-
sible, to localze the conflict. First,
Sir Edward Grey, the British secre-
tary of state for foreign affairs, has
proposed to the powers a plan for joint
mediation which it is said France and
Italy already have accepted. Germany
has not yet replied, and her acceptance
is regarded as doubtful.
Sir Edward Grey explained in the
house of commons his idea, which was
that four powers, Great Britain,
France, Germany and Italy, cooperate
in an endeavor to arrange the dispute
between Austria and Servia on the
basis of Servias reply to Austria's ulti-
matum.
Should the British foreign secre-
tarys efforts fail to avert war, it is
expected he will endeavor by some
means to prevent complications by
combining the hostilities to Austria and
Servia.
The second line of diplomatic en-
deavor from which even more is
hoped. is taking place at St Peters
burg between the Russian minister of
foreign affairs, Sergius Sasonoff, and
the Austrian ambassador.
An extremely warlike spirit prevails
in Vienna, where the evening papers
declare the Servians are only making
eyasions and that therefore it is i'm
possible for the Austrian government
10 retreat Further, they hint that
even should Servia accept the Aus
trian ultimatum Internationally and
offer to pay the cost of Austria S mobi-
lization, Austria now would be com
PEELED to ask for new guarantees.
