FOR BABY'S SKIN SCALP AND HAIR

Something for Mothers to Think About EVERY CHILD born into the world with anaherited or early developed tendency to distressing, disfiguring humours of the skin, scalp, and blood, becomes an object of the most tender solicitude, not only because of its suf- fering but because of the dreadful fear that the disfigura- tion is to be lifelong and mar its future happiness and prosperity. Hence it becomes the duty of mothers of such afflicted children to acquaint themselves with the best, the purest, and most effective treatment available, viz., THE CUTICURA TREATMENT.

Warm baths with CUTICURA SOAP, to cleanse the skin of crusts and scales and soften the thickened cuticle, gentle anointings with Curicuna ÖINT- MENT, to instantly allay itching, irritation, and inflammation, and soothe and heal, to be followed in the severer cases by mild doses of Curicuga RESOL VENT PILLS (see below), to cool and cleanse the blood, are a list can be desired for the alleviation of the suffering of skin-tortufed ipfants and children and the comfort of worn-out, worried mothers. A stigle set is often sufficient to cure when the best physicians fall.

Millions of Women Use Cuticura Soap

Assisted by CUTICURA OINTMENT, for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dautruff, and the stopplag of falling hair, for softening, whitening, aud soothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes, Itchings, and change, in the form of baths for sanaying irritations and infomations, or too fres or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many annative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery.

CUTICURA REBOLVENT FILLS (Chocolate Coated) are propated to meet the wants of delicate women, and sensitive children, and are pure, swoet, and tasteless. They are beyond question the most successful blood purifiers and humour cures yet compounded. CUTICUNA Rrundine are sold throughout the world. Australian Depot: R.

WAR NOTES.

Political Parties and the Recent Disaster.

It is scarcely necessary to say that the transport disaster has created a great sen- sation throughout the Empire, says the Kobe Chronicle, The Committee of the Progressist party sent a deputation to the Ministers for War and the Navy to request an explanation of the disaster. As a result of the interview the Committee adopted rosolution to the effect that particulars of the disasters had been obtained from the Ministers for War and the Navy, and the Committee was convinced that there was some neglect on the part of the authorities responsible. The resolution hoped that more caution would be exorcised in future, and the operations of the campaign success fully carried out. The resolution was in mediately presented to the Premier. The General Committee of the Constitionalists also adopted a resolution on Monday, to the effect that some time ago a disaster took place of Gensan, Korea, and now an other had occurred on the Genkai Nada. The party deeply deplored this. res ponsibility for the disaster should be clearly defined, and it was to be earnestly hoped would warn the anthorities responsible, and that everything bo done to avert such disastors in the future.

Whilst riding round the outskirts of the Settlement shortly after 6 a.m. two English- men came across the body of a foreigner lying in a stagnant pool at the rear of the Russian Concession, and closely adjoining the Russian Consulate. Thoy dragged the body out of the water and immediately gave the alarm, and within a very short space of time Dr Roese and the police were on the scene. The man was quite dead, however, and the body was immediately removed to the German police station. The body turned out to be that of Christian Muller, sub-manager of the Rifle Factory at the Hanyang Iron and Steel Works.
