Something for Mothers to Think About EVERY CHILD born into the world with an inherited 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-batha with CUTICURA SQAP, to cleanse the skin of crusts and scales and soften the thickened cuticle, gentle anointings with CUTICURA OINT- MENT, to instantly allay itching, Irritation, and inflammation, and soothe and heal, to be followed in the severer cases by mild doses of CUTICURA RESOL VENT PILLS (see below), to cool and cleanse the blood, are all that can be desired for the alleviation of the sultring of skin-tortured infants and children and the comfort of worn-out, worried mothers. A single set 18 often sufficient to cure when the best physicians fail.
Millions of Women Use Cuticura Soap
Asalsted by CUTICURA OINTMENT, for preservice, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for cleaning the scalp of crusts, sales, and dandali, and the stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and southing red, rough, and cove handy for baby rashes, itchings, and chalings, in the form of batts for annoying (itations an infammations, or too free or offensive perspiration, ta the form of wishes for pleentive weaknesses, and for many 6hnative, antiseptle purposes which readily glleged bomselves to women, especially

Extraordinary Conversions.
Not since the memorable meetings at Loughor have thoro been such demonstra fions of emotion and enthusiasm as characterised recent services in Songhon vild. Three or four chapels were crowd. ed simultaneously, and the services held therein continued into the early hours of tho, morning. One gathering, in fact, did not disperse until it was time for some of the men' to go to their work-six o'clock-and then it W&S only with great reluctance that they. soparated. At that meeting special prayers were offered on behalf of a certain charac ter notorious in the district, his wife being. one of the suppliants. The congregation wont into ecstasies of joy in the early morning on seeing that very man entering the building. He was in a somewhat' dishevelled stato, a portion of his night attire peeping out above the collar of his cost. In passionate language he declared that he could not sleep, that he was com- pollod to get up, to rush to the meeting, and confess himself a convert. Encouraged by this, the congregation montioned the names of two other delinquents in their prayers, and as the hours wore on theso identical non put in an appearance. Again the multitude sang exultantly.
Leaving Caerphilly alive from end to end, the Revivalists met there at midday, and went to Senghenydd. Meetings of exceptional size, duration, and enthusiasm were held continuously from half-past ton in the morning, and the Revival was the one topic of conversation, every other matter for the time being having sunk into. Insignificance. The streets presented a desertod appearance, and shops and públic. houses were doing no business-everybody was at chapel.
THE WINE HARVEST IN
FRANCE.
PARIS, Jan. 6.-M. Jacquet, of the Revue Vinicole, has just completed his an- nual estimate of the wine harvest in France. He calculates that the yield amounts to 66,000,000 of hectolitres (the hectolitros is equivalent to 22 gallons), or 31,000,000 hectolitres more than last year. To this total must be added the product of the Al- gerian vineyards, another 6,000,000. This KWONG TY CHEONG,excellent result is due, to a great extent, to

The quality is gonorally above the average for grands crus and the wines made from grapes grown on the hill siden. It does not come up to expectation in the case of wines made from grapes grown in the small wines plains, whilst some of
the yields of certain Southern regions are only middling. It is believed that the alcoholic strength of the 1904 wines will be from one to two degrees higher than that in 1903. Finally, it may be noted that in several departments the hectare of land (about two and a-half acres) produced as much as between 300 and 400 hectolitres of wine.

But apart from all this, it is very nice of you to wish to exclude them from anything connected with Commercial supremacy. 'Because', youjargue, it has a depressing effect upon the general constitution'.
