AMATEUR COMEDIAN'S STORY

CUTICURA REMEDIES
The
"I am an amateur comedian.'" troupe, during last sumuner, gave some- think like three shows a week, and it was necessary for each te to niske up his face with grouse paints. About the beginning of July my face began to get blotchy and berame wore and worse, till at the end of a week the lower part was covered with red pimples. I went to my doctor, who gave me some blond mixture, which I took for about a fort- aight without effect. I then purchased some Cutietire Soap and Cuties Oint- ment, and used them as directed. After zan to fortnight's usage the pimples began dry up; after a month's treatment I wan able to brush them off with a soft towel, they having become bits of dried-up white skin. I wish you to understand that I put this eruption down to the continual use of theatrical makeup and the hot weather. A. . Trotman. 126 Barrows Road, Sarkhill, Birminghanist, Feb. 12, 1906,"

THE FRANCO-JAPANESE ENTENTE.
STATEMENT AT MR. KURINO.
Mr. Kurian, thedapeness Ambassador in Paris, has made a statement to M. Georges Villiers, of the Temps, in the earss of which he said, among other things, that the Franco-Japanoss entexte included, na the one hand, the guarnotes of the independence and integrity of China, and, on the other, that of the possessions of the two contracting Powere. It confirms the territorial as resulting for Japan from the last statua
дио war and for France from her situation in Iedo- Chine. Tuas from the French, Japanoes, and Chiuere standpointe, it is purely conservative and pacific. Mr. Kirino hopes that the legend of the yellow peril and of Japanese ambitions will be finally disposed of by the event.
In reply to a question, the Japanese Ambages- dor maid that the treaty did not contain commercial olatres relating to the Far East. It was purely political, but that fact did not prevent its having been taken into consideration during the negotiations for a loan at the begia ning of this par. It comprised, however, no commercial or navigatien convention. It would be signed in Paris and the text would be published, neither country having anything to conceal in this simple, ustural, and friendly arrangement.
