How to Preserve Purify and Beautify
the Skin and Complexion.
To preserve, purify, and beautify the skin, and prevent pimples, blotches, blackheads, redness, rougliness, yellow, oily, mothy skin, chapping, and many other forms of skin blemishes, no other skin or complexion soap is for a moment to be compared with CUTICURA SOAP, because no other soap reaches the cause, viz., the clogged, irritated, or inflamed condition of the PORES
SAVE YOUR HAIR
How to Prevent Falling Hair Scalp Humours and Dandruff.
Cleanse the scalp and hair thoroughly with a warm shampoo of CUTI- CURA SOAT, rinse with warm water, dry carefully, and apply a light dressing of CUTICURA, purest of emollients, gently rubbed into the scalp. This simple, refreshing, and inexpensive treatment will clear the scalp and hair of crusts, scales, and dandruff, soothe irritated, itching surfaces, stimulate the hair follicles, supply the roots with energy and nourishment, and make the hair grow upon a sweet, wholesome, and healthy.scalp, when all else fails.
SAVE YOUR HANDS
How to Make the Hands Soft and
White in a Single Night.
Bathe and soak the bands on retiring in a strong, hot lather of CUTICURA SOAT. Dry thoroughly and anoint freely with CUTICURA Ointment, the great skin cure and purest of emollients. Wear during the night old, loose kid gloves with the finger ends cut off. For red, rough, chapped liands, dry, fissured, itching, feverish palms, shapeless nails, with painful finger ends, this one night treatment is simply wonderful and a blessing to all afflicted with sore, chapped, rough, or tender hands.

of the Military police at Hôpʻu that a well- known Kungsi Triad Chief, named Tsou Tang-kan, escorted by a dozen or so followers had been seen in that vicinity on the 8th of September, the Captain started out the same night to make a search of the -- villages in the neighbourhood, taking with him a couple of hundred men and a num- ber of spies who could identify the Triad Chief. The police eventually discovered the retreat of the Chief, and an advance was at once made on the village; but the police
compelled to get under shelter, owing to the volleys of Mauser bullets which greeted them, and which struck down a number of the ad. vancing party. The superior numbers of the police, however, compelled the Triads to evacuate the village and flee to another village called Hsiang Shants'un, the in- habitants of which, however, being hostile to the rebel cause, prepared an ambush for the fleeing Triads, with the result that Tsou Tang-kao and two other chiefs were captured and six of their followers. When the police eventually came up on the tracks of the insurgents the villagers banded over the captives to the surprise and, naturally, delight of the former, who, in spite of being nearly twenty to one, could have done no- thing to the Triads. The police lost four killed and seven wounded, while the

A MUNICIPAL COUNCIL WANTED, To the Editor of the CINA MAIL.' 18 Bank Buildings, Hongkong, October, 10th, 1902. Sir, I beg to submit, for the considera- tion of the Legislative Council and the public, that the provision of a sum of $100,000 only in the forthcoming year for the purpose of compensation for the re sumption of insanitary properties cannot be considered as by any means adequate in view of the enormous nature of the task which requires to be dealt with and of the annual recurrence of plague with its result- ing quarantine and damage to business.
The insanitary buildings problemcan not, I think, be satisfactorily solved by ecen- sional votes of $100,000, but can only be settled upon similar lines to a Naval ship- building programme, that is to say, by the manoeuvres that are to be held in this preparation of a definite and thorough province in the presence of the Czar, the scheme of improvements, spread over a Crown Prince, and Grand Dukes of Russia. certain number of years, say five or seven, which scheme should be vigorously and continuously carried out altogether irres- pective of any changes in the personnel of the local Government.

In the second No.
In the third ?-No.
In the fourth? - No.
In the fifth -No. In the sixth ?---No.
Then she did nothing to you, at all- No. But after several repotitions of the question the girl told Mr Hazeland that during the sixth year of her captivity the
woman had beaten her with a cane. That was all she would say.
Mr Hazeland said he did not think it was
any use proceeding with the examination of the girl at that stage. They were usual- ly disinclined to speak-witnesses of her age, and they could not treat her as an ad- verse or hostile witness.
Mr Harston agreed with his Worship's view.
Mr Hazeland What would you suggest?,
(to Inspector Gidley) Have you corrobora- tive evidence.
Inspector Gidley: Yes. I have got a woman who actually saw her hanging from a ladder and who cut her down. She is unable to be here, to-day, as she is about to be confined..
Mr Hazeland suggested that Mr Harston might cross-examine the girl at this stage. She could be recalled afterwards, if neces- sary.
Mr Harston: Of course you can recali her.
Tsu Kam was then cross-examined by Mr- Harston. How did the second defendant treat you ?-Treated me well,
Then I may take it that he was not a party to anything you suffered ?No.

Mr Harston pointed out to his worship that the girl exonerated the man. Be de- sired to discriminato between the evidence. which affected the man and that which ap- plied to the woman..

Mr Hazeland asked Inspector Gidley, if

Inspector Gidley; No, Your Worship,
I think it would be much better to take the evidence in order. The next
witness would be the woman who
saw Tsu Kam suspended. That will give us something to go upon.
