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 distgurement, as in pimples and ringworm; the awful suffering of lufants and the anxiety of worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tetter, and salt rhewin, all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. Such are the CUTICURA remedies, the purest, sweetest, most speedy 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, scules, and dandruff, and the stopping of falling luair, for softening, whitening, and Boothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes and chafings, in the form of baths for aunoying Irritations and Inflammations of women, or too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and many sanative, antiseptle purposes which readily suggest themselves, as well as for all the purposes of the tollet, bath, and nursery.
CUTICURA RESOLVENT PILLS (Chocolate Conte) are a new, tasteless,
odourless, economical substitute for the rule brated liquid CUTICURA RESOLVENT, as well as for all other blood purifiers and humour cures. Put up iu screw-cap pocket vials, containing 60 doses.

American Women Clerion, Beauty and Clothes.
To tho Bystander Miss Mario Corelli is contributing weekly n characteristic ori- ticism of something calculated to disturb→→ and, judging by the interest they havo aroused, succeeding in disturbing--some- body badly. Miss Corelli is undoubtedly one of the most striking literary figures of the day. She has her violent admirers, she has hoats of violent detractors, one fact remains she has an enormous public.
This paper Miss Corelli starts with the question, Why American Women Tare popular in England and concludes with hor answer: Because they deserve to be !'
For the American woman is, above all women in the world, clover-or, let us say, 'brainy,' to an almost incredible height of brainyness. She is all there,' Sho can tako the measure of a man in about ten minutes and classify him as though he were a botanical specimen. She realises all his limitations, his 'motions,' and his specia and particular fads-and she has the un commonly good sense not to expect much of him.

Bay, queenliness, which sounds better. The Lord of creation can do nothing in the way of ordering her about-becsung as the Lady of creation she expects to order him about-and she does. She expects to be worked for, worshipped and generally at tended to-and she gets her way.
Life does not run only in one channel for the American Woman. She does not ⚫ make trucks' solely from the cradle to the altar, from the altar to the grave. She realises that there is inore fun to be got, out of being born than just this little old measure meted out to her by the barbaric males of earliest barbaric periods, when wo mon were yoked to the plough with cattle -as they still are in some parts of Switzer- land. And it is tho innate consciousness offher own power and intelligent ability that gives her the dominating charm-the magnetic spell under which the stolid Britisher falls more or less stricken, stupefied and inert,
Nover is Miss Corolli more trenchant than when criticising (the work attacking' sho objects to. for, says sho: Truth is always called an 'attack' by liars') the Church. In this paper she indicts those clergy who degrade themselves

When, on the contrary they do things for which the poorest peasant or dockyard labourer would have the right, and the honest right, too, to despiso them-when thoy commit base actions for money or advancement-whon they are harsh, unyielding, discourteous and obstinate to the degree of even declin- ing to aid a good cause, or assist in some benefit to the nation at large, merely bo- cause they have not been consulted as to ways and methods, they do not desorve to be called 'Ohristian,' at all.

A really beautiful woman is scarcely ever seen, not even in Great Britain, where average good looks are pleasantly para is made up of a good skin, bright eyes, soft mount. Prettiness--the prettiness which

But Beauty, the divine and subtle charm which enraptures all beholders -the perfect form, united to the perfect face in which pure and noble thought is ex- pressed in every feature, every glance of oyo, in every smile flint makes a sweet mouth sweeter-this is what we may search through Europe and America and the whole for through all the Isles of Britain, ny, and world besides, and seldom or never find it. Naturally this is a pendant to the fore the same, and is not so well treated :--- going. The subject written of is very much

and becomingly as she can. But just as a clothe her person as neatly, as tastefully virtue when carried to excess develops into a vice, so the art of dressing well, when allowed to overstep its legitimate uses and expenditure, easily runs into folly and madness. The reckless extravagance of women's dress at the present day is little short of criminal insanity. A feverish desire to outvie one another in the manner and make of their garments appears to possess every feminine creature whose, lot in life places her outside positive penury. Tho inordinately wealthy, the normally rich, the well-to do middle class and the shabby genteel are all equally infected by the same hysterical frenzy. And it is frenzy which is humoured and encouraged on all sides by those who should have the sense, the intelligence and the
tendency, and the misery to which in many cases it is surely bound to lead.
And especially is it encouraged by men. The male sex has made the power of dress what it is:

Of course, it is dangerous to generalise from one or two instances we meet in the book, but it is equally dangerimis to assume that the present-day Japanese society is exactly the same as it used to be. On the whole, I should say that Japan of today is not thoroughly known, and only the faithful pictures as we see in Nami-ko' can serve to reveal her real self.

Should the judgment of the House of Lords be followed the affairs of the Church will become unworkable.

Remarks by the Telegraph LONDON, September 16 The Daily Telegraph, in referring to the surprise evoked in Japan by the autiouncement that a change had taken
place in British views with regard to Russian strategy, states that while the British had great admiration for their allies and their faith in their ultimate triumph was undiminished, it would be puerile to igane the fret but the Bossinn h De better the fo..11, ..

They are not satielled, moreover, with criticizing Kuropatkin's plan. They criticize his military capacity. As the foundation of his reputation was laid under the auspices of Skobeleff, whose chief of staff he was, his enemics are now attempting to prove that Skobeleff did not think much of Kuropat kin, who never could do anything of con. sequence unless in concert with a great general. Some are dwelling upon the fact that during the attack upon the Green Mountains before Plevna, it was announced to Skobeleff that Kuropatkin had been wounded. Skobeleff paid no attention and continued his movement. Others declare that Skoboloff once said to Kuropatkin: 'Alexis Nicolaievitch, you are an ambitious man and you will have a fine caroer, but do not forget my advice. Never accept an independent post in which you will have to direct affairs."
