Speedy Cure Treatment.
Bathe the affected parts with Hot Water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the surface of crust's and scales, and soften the thickened cuticle. Dry, without hard rubbing, and apply Cutlera 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 ernst, tetter, and salt rheum, all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. Bach are the CUTICURA Ternedics,' the purest, sweetest, most speedy and economical curatives for the skin, scalp, and blood ever compounded. Mothers are their warnest 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, aud sore hands, for baby rashes and chafings, in the form of baths for aunoying irritations und 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 Conterl) are a new, tasteless,
odourless, cronomical substitute for the rele brated liquid CUTICURA RESOLVENT, as well as for all other blood purifiers and humour cures. Pot np in screw.cap pocket vials, containing 60 doses.

THE DUEL IN FRANCE.
A real duel, in which both ant gonists did their level bet for two solid hours to disable each other, took place in France in the early days of January. Encounters of this sors are usually more or less of a force, but this one was an exception.
M. Georges Breittmayer, who has had the chief mun gement of many Combats, fought M. Armand Luseiez at Neuilly. Both gentlemen are bus
are fine swordsmen; and their skill for the whole two hours wAB beyond reproach. The quarrel began are: paragraphis published about M. Breittmayer by M. Lusciez and M. Willy Sulzbacher : and it was agreed that M. Breittm yer was to fight these two gentlemen in succession. Ono present sums up the duel in the words ment terrible, From the first bout tó last the two opponents attacked, parried, made thrusts, and counterthrusts, as in the stiffest encounters to be witnessed with ordinary fencing-room foils
When M. Breittmayer was hit near the eye he absolutely refused to allow the doctors to intervene. After this however, Breittmayer was moro prudent, and, taking full advantage of his greater height, he pressed his opponent hard. The letter, nevertheless,

Another point touched upon was the action of the Viceroy in interfering with the export of cattle from the province Quite recently an ellict was issued in which the Viceroy limited the export of red cattle in some districts, and totally forbade ally exportation whatever from other dis
tricts.
The districte from which exportation is forbidden are the richest cattle districts in the province, while the districts from which It is allowed, in limited degree, are the poorer cattle districts. The explanation given by the Viceroy at the time was
till that the cattle were needed to the fields in the spring. If the cattle wore exported from the districts the pee- plo would become poorer, and their inabili. ty to till the lands would precipitate a famine. The edict was only to remain in fu ce for three months, after which export- ntion could go on again. These reasons for the stoppage of exportation are invalid, of course, and can hardly be taken into consideration. The fact remains, however, that the exportation of cattle has been dealt a severe blow by the Viceroy, and to

By Command,
Sir. You are to be congratulated u, on the whole-hearted manner in which you have taken up the question of this further extortion on the part of the Chinese com- pradores. There really seems no earthly reason for the big rise in the price of meat, and it looks all the world like 'squeeze The remedy, how- pidgin' this time. ever, is not far to seek it only roata with the public to take advantage of an opportunity they have
had before and boycott the Chinese butchers and their evidently all-powerful Guild. Why not encourage the Dairy Farm Co, in their endeavour to popularise their excellent Australian fresh meat in Hongkong? I have long ago dispensed with my Chinese market butcher and his little tricks, and am waxing fat on the good wholesome beef famed.

(To the Editor of the CHINA MAIL.) Sir.I read with interest the article in your valuable paper of the 3rd inst. about the rise in the price of meat.
Being an old resident. I remember the time that hawkers of mest and poultry were. allowed to sell their goods-brought direct from the villages, after they had taken out a license at the Registrar General's office- without interference on the part of the police. Now, only those in the markets are allowed to sell.

The moment the Government llows com- pedition the prices will go down. Let the people take their cattle and pigs to the slaughter bouse and be examined by the inspector, and let them sell their meat in the streets. I saw the police chasing mon offering poultry for sale in the streets. This deters them, and consumers pay the penalty, being compelled to buy in the market at exorbitant prices,—Yours, etc.,
