very bad, deep, wet, running sore on
the side of her face and it ran up to
her ear. II commenced with q small
blotch of pimpIes which turned into
a kind Of rash and spread rapidly. It
itched and looked red and sore for
some time and slightly swelled. A
thin fluid dripped and ran from the
sores which looked like water. Then
the swelling would go down and It
would keep on spreading. It bothered
her during sleep and she would be
restless. It was q kind of eczems.
"She treated for some time and II
did not help her. It kept spreading
larger and deeper. Having always
used Cuticura Soap we told her to try
It SO she got some CuticurA Soap and

on the contrary, refused to say word,
maintaining q cold and digniied

the parrots were kept, the laxative
parrot suddenly screamed: God save

The height of boldness reached Friday when
the Seattle Tacoma Power Co. asked permission to
use the wires of the Tacoma Railway Power COM
pany which has been removed from the field by or
der of the court Should this be permitted the court
victory over the Tacoma Railway & Power company
viii have been empty one, for the business of the
Tacoma Railway Power company could easily be
turned to the sister concern, and Webster
would lose nothing.
If the Seattle-Tacoma Power company wants to
take over the business of the dead Tacoma Railway
Power company, it can do so by putting its wires
under ground as provided by city ordinance-and in
no other way 1t will cost money to do this and it
isn't likely that the sister company will fall over it
self in taking hold of the business.
And before any special permits granted it may
be well to be that the StoneW ebster people are
willing to negotiate justly with the people in the mat
ter of transfers and street ear service.
There has been indication the part of the
Boston syndicate to improve the transfer evil.
There has been attempt to relieve the congested
condition of street during the afternoon hours
There has been no desire to make extensions where
extensions needed.
These and few other things some of the best
why the city should force Stone-W Webster to
stay within the law until they fit to do the right
thing in this city.
