DOCKS MANY SHIPS
Water Front of BuenoS Aires a
Place of Wonderful BuStIe.
Huge Ocean Greyhounds Are Stretched
Out at Full Length, With no
Sheds Between, as Far as
the Eye Can See.

Buenos Aires.-Not even LondonS
docks give such a picture of the vivid
hustle and whispering of the sea as
does the water front of Buenos Aires,
for here huge ocean greyhounds are
stretched out at full length, with
no sheds between, funnel behind
funnel as far as the eye can see. A
veritable street of nations is this water
front. Here Royal Mail packet from
England-one of those aristocrats Of
the seas which cwim up and down
across the tropics with music and folks
dressing for dinner-rubS shoulder
with a river boat just come down the
Parana river from Paraguay with a
cargo of oranges; there a Spanish
liner from Barcelona, a Frenchman
from Marseilles, an Italian from
Genoa, a German from Bremen, loaded
down with champagne and aperitifs,
opera companies and automobiles, and
hundreds of hopeful immigrants from
all the countries of the old world;
ships flying the flags of every nation
of the world, and sailors joking in a
dozen tongues.
On every hand it seems to the visitor
that he has been swallowed by mod
ern Babylon. These docks and
wharves are the finest in the world,
and connect with over 10000 miles of
railroads, reaching every part of the
republic.
Commercially and financially Buenos
Aires is the Argentine. 1t has 26 banks
which supply the republic with money,
big banks with splendid buildings.
Four of them have-a capital stock of
$5,000,000, and the statistics of their
deposits, discounts, loans and clear
ings are amazing in their magnitude.
The Bank of Argentine Nation, which
operates 80 branches throughout the
country, shows a net profit of $4,000
600 or $5,000,000 a year.
AS a social center Buenos Aires is
also the Argentine. Most of the
money made in the Campo is spent
here. The city has scores of million

The old chaps who built Havana GER
tainly knew their business. They may
have been bit stingy in the matter
of streets, but they put walls that will
stand till the crack of doom, and they
knew color.
| I prowled for hours through the
gaunt old narrow streets, rarely more
than wide enough for two coaches to
pass. Iron balconies overhang nearly
to the middle of the highway. Side
walks there are none, or only a little
18-inch shelf. Frequently bright col
orded awnings are stretched across the
street from house to house. The heavy
doors of iron or oak are always open
through the day and early evening.
You get glimpses back into dim patios
set with dwarf palms, frequently with
a naked baby rolling on the floor and
somersaulting, chicken or two-the
feathered kind, of course. You get
whiffs of garlicky cookery that make
you want to explore.
Being Sunday, Havana was taking
her simple pleasures. Up around the
middle of the town there is one of the
open-fronted cafes on pretty nearly
every corner, and through the after
noon it seems that the entire popula-
tion sit at the little iron tables slipping
their coffee or cognac and playing
dominoes. And what fun they do get
out Of dominoes! What chattering
in soft Spanish and what waving Of
eloquent hands! And over it all there
is constant spicy haze produced by
the famous all-wool cigarettes of the
country
On Sunday anyone who isn't sitting
in cafe walks on the Prado or on the
Malecon, the wide esplanade down by
the sea wall where the band plays all
the day, The parade from the lower
end of the Prado to the park will fur
nish samples of a whole lot more than
81 varieties of Cubans. They are
mighty badly graded as to color, run
ming from 4 pale lemon to patent
leather shine.

lists, but fewer this year than usual. /
wonder why. The hotels are good and
Havana is a fine place to rest, and If
one really wants taste of feverish
tropical entertainment, it may be had
at any time after 8 p. m. Everything
else aside, Havana is worth trip just
for look.
Did l say that Havana is wicked?
Well, there's the zaza motion picture

BABY HAD PAINFUL ECZEMA

q. r. D. No. 1, Lucerne, Colo
About two years ago my baby, who
was about four months old at that
time, was afflicted with eczema which
ut first appeared on the back Of the
neck and kept constantly enlarging.
The eczema broke out in a rash at
hrSt and 1t was small and rough and
very red. 1t itched and burned so
much that he could not sleep well,
continually turning and twisting his
head as the eczema was on the back
Df his neck where he could not get to
It to scratch well. But In rubbing SO
much 1t became red and almost raw.
1t seemed very painful as the child
retted constantly. After some time a
similar trouble appeared on the
cheeks.
"At last a friend advised me to try
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. / sent
tor sample and this did SO much
good bought a cake of Cuticura Soap
and the Cuticura Ointment. / used
them according to directions and 1t
