ERUPTION DlsFIeURED FACE

Lock Box 35. Maurice. Ia.-"In the
spring of 1911 our little daughter. age
five years, had breaking out on her
lip and part of her cheek that we
took for ringworm. 1t resembled a
large ringworm. only 1t differed in
that 1t was covered with watery blis-
ters that itched and burned terribly.
made worse by her scratching 1t.
Then the blisters would break through
and let out watery substance. She
was very cross and fretful while she
had it and had very little rest at
night. When the eruption was at its
worst the teacher of the school sent
her home and would not allow her to
attend until the Disagreement of her
face was gone.
Il wrote and received sample of
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, which
we used according to directions. and
they gave instant relief. SO we bought
some more. 1t gradually grew better.
We kept on using Cuticura Soap and
Ointment and in three or four months
the child was entirely cured"

DANGER OF RECOURSE
TO ARMS is PAST
BY John Edwin Nevin.

Washington, May 29.-Secretary of
State Bryan stated positively to the
cabinet today that mediation cannot
now fail to settle the entire Mexican
trouble.
For the first time he went on record
to the effect that the danger of a re-
course to arms was past.
The secretary outlined the exact sta
tus Of the negotiations at Niagara
Falls. No conflict has developed there,
he said, on a single point that cannot
be overcome.
He asserted that the constitutional
lists would accept the mediators' YER
diet, reported the result of converse
tions he has had with Judge Douglas,
General Carranza s lawyer, and said he
had found Carranza very reasonable.
No concessions, Bryan added, would
be made to President Huerta, and no
Mexican identified with the faction re-
sponsible for the late President Ma
dero s death would be considered as his
successor.
Tentative drafts Of protocol, Secre-
try Bryan concluded, would be ready
in week.

FLAGS WILL MAKE CHERRY
FAIR VERY ATTRACTIVE

A regular "flag day with hundreds
of flags strung overhead on wires to
make the municipal streets of the city
wide avenue of streaming color, will
be one of the features of the Cherry
fair. Every merchant in town will be
visited within the next few days by
the committee on decorations, Fred 8,
Bynon and Carl Hinges, and urged to
add to the sum total of beauty by dec
Grating the fronts and interiors OF
their several places of business from
turret to foundation stone.
The present outlook is that more peo-
pie than ever will be in attendance at
the Cherry fair. The last day of the
fair in 1918 saw some 10000 visitors
in Salem, and it is expected that this
years total for the corresponding per-
iod will exceed that of last by at least
10000. In order to make an over
whelming impression on these guests,
the committee will urge upon the entire
city the necessity of making as great
display Of decoration as possible.
A unique scheme of decoration for
the cluster light posts which line the
chief thoroughfares is being worked
out, to give the highest possible effec,
by day and night. Thousands of extra
coored lights will be strung about the
streets that the city at night may ado
to its daytime charm. A new feature
of lighting that is being figured on is
the placing of giant search lights il

MANY SURVIVORS DIE FROM
EXPOSURE AND INJURY

Rimouski Canada, May 29.-The 337
Empress of Ireland survivors landed
here by the government ships Lady
Evelyn and Eureka left this afternoon
on the Inter Colonial special and were
due to reach Point Lewis, opposite
Quebec, at 6 p. m.
Many were so badly injured in the
collision of the boats and suffered so
much from exposure that they will
have to go to hospitals. OF those who
succumbed, some died as soon as they
were picked up, but dozen expired
after reaching here.
The survivors removal from RimOus-
XII was decided on owing to the lack Of
accommodations for them here, though
many residents opened their own
homes.
So great was the shock of their ex-
perience that few of the party could
tell connected stories. y. j. Black
and his wife, of Ottawa, were awak-
ened when the crash occurred, and
being unable to reach lifeboat
jumped into the st. Lawrence and
clung to pieces of wreckage until they
were picked up.
The survivors agreed that many pas
sengers perished in their births.
Among those who started for Que
bee were Miss Eva Searle Of Seattle
and Alex Bonthune, of Santa Barbara.
