WILD WITH ECZEMA
And Other Itching, Burning, Scaly Eruptions with Loss of Hair.
Speedy Cure Treatment.
Bathe the affected parts with Hot Water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the surface of crusts and scales, and soften the thickened. cuticle. Dry, without hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura Ointment freely, to allay itching, irritation, and inflammation, and soothe and heal, and lastly take Cuticura Resolvent Pills, to cool and cleanse the blood. A single set is often sufficient to cure the most torturing, dis- figuring, itching, burning, scaly, pimply humours, eczemas, rashes, irritations, and chafings, with loss of hair, when all else fails.
The agonizing itching and burning of the skin, as in eczema; the fright- ful scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss of hair and crusting of the scalp, as in scalled head; the facial disfigurement, as in pimples and ringworm; the awful suffering of infants and the anxiety of worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tetter, and salt rheum, all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. Such are the CUTICURA remedies, the purest, sweetest, most specily and economical curatives for the skin, scalp, and blood ever compounded. Mothers are their warmest friends.
Millions of Women Use Cuticura Soap
Assisted by CUTICURA OINTMENT for preserving, purifying, and beautify- ing the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and soothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes and chafings, in the form of baths for annoying irritations and inflammations of women, or too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and many, Sanative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves, as well as for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery.
CUTICURA RESOLVENT PILLS (Chocolate Coated) are a new, insteless,
odourless, economical substitute for the cele brated liquid CUTICURA RESOLVENT, as well as for all other blood purifiers and humour carea. Fut up in screw cap pocket vials, containing 60 dosen.

in any chess club in the world. The Cape Times has also learned from Mr Lee that few of the chess masters play chess for amusement. His own hobby is music; champion Lasker plays bridge; Mr James Mason plays dominoes; and so on.
The chess player has (says the Wiener Schachzeitung) not only to consider the immediate effect of his move, but also to take account of the chances which it will offer to his opponent. Hence it is im- portant to cultivate the faculty of following out trains of thought, of selecting moves, and of examining the consequences of each within the limits to which it will restrict the adversary. The thing is to develop the power of arriving at the results of each particular variation, of accustoming the inner eye to see distant positions, and to survey the possibilities both for Black and for White which will be brought up by

The death is announced, at Berlin, of Carl-August Walbrodt, at the age of 31. He acquired a local reputation at Berlin when, a youth still at College, he joined the Berlin Chess Club. His fame as a ris ing star spread to wider circles, after beat- ing Schallopp, Shere and Bardeleben in matches before the Dresden Tournament, 1892, where be divided the fourth and fifth prizes, and his reputation as one of the. foremost German masters was established nt that contest. He played periodically. with tolerable success in various tourna- ments, and later on at Hastings, 1896; Nuremberg, 1896; Buda-Pesth, 1896; Ber- lin, 1897; Vienna, 1898. His best per- formance must be considered the one at Berlin, being second, his score only topped by the famous Charousok. At Nurom- berg the previous year he only tied for seventh and eighth place; but the scoring.

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Just now, the public of TWO SERIOUS Hongkong are deeply interested in two serious problems. One is the
PRODLEMS,
water supply, the other the instability of the currency.
Both are matters calling for treatment by the Government, and while both are local questions they have an imperial bearing which would justify a public appeal to the Imperial Administration through the Colonial Office. The scarcity of water is no new experience. Year after year, the Colony has been subjected to an intermittent supply, a system that is condemned by all experts as neither economical nor healthy, and yet the Government has not attacked the problem of giving a full and regular supply with the thoroughness it demanded. Consequent- ly, the Colony is again face to face with n serious water famine. This time it is serious than in the past spring, for the dry season has just com- menced, and the public have to look forward to four or five months of drought, unless some meteorological phenomenon is to occur in the mean-

But the fact that thousands of rupees for his import trade with India, and the cooly, to a minor degree, wants Indian Chinese aro spell-bound by theperformance, rupees to take with him when he returns and undoubtedly enjoy it, led the writer to India. If the merchant cannot obtain to try and see a play through Chi. Indian rupees when required, the import trade will be upset, and the price of food- stuffs will increase. If the Indian cooly cannot obtain Indian rupecs, he may be dissatisfied and demand higher wages, or contract before leaving his country to be paid in his own coin. No coin of whatever denomination will circulate freely in this island unless readily changeable into other coins when required. In the last two para graphs of A. B. C.'s' letter he does not show how the Indian rupees will remain in circulation unless the Gold Ordinance is cancelled, or, at least, so amended as to restrict the importation of sovereigns. When one of these courses is adopted the system of importing rupees and they will freely come into circulation again. No one during the present discussion, so far as we have seen, has proved the advantage of a gold currency in the island - it has been merely a sentimental change so far as the general public is concerned. Wo trust that H. E. the Governor will understand that everyone is expecting something to be done now that he has returned to the island.
We know that servants combine together to cheat and annoy their masters, and wo fear organised opposition to any legalised interference! But, we also know that Orientals will give in before the determin. ed resolution of Europeans, and we are aware that the authorities will deport un- desirable aliens if need be. Why, then, should not the masters combine together to control their servants? May I suggest, therefore, the following plan? Let house holders agree
(1) to keep in their own hands photo. graphs and private information books of all their servants; (2) to refuse to give any written certificate to any servant when Icaving; (3) to decline to employ any ser- want whe annot give references to previous employers, and (4) to turn out all the so- called relations and friends who herd
nese spectacles. By the courtesy of a Chi- nese friend, who spoke English and was a lover of the drama, the main points were translated, and one's imagination, if not still as keen as in childhood's days, painted in the scenery.
