Skin-Tortured Babies AND TIRED MOTHERS Find Comfort in Cuticura

INSTANT RELIEF and refreshing sleep for Skin-tortured Babies and rest for Tired Mothers in warm baths with CUTICURA SOAP, and gentle anointings with CUTICURA OINTMENT, the great skin cure and purest of emollients, to be followed in severe cases by mild doses of CUTICURA RESOLVENT PILLS, to cool and cleanse the blood. This is the purest, sweetest, most speedy, permanent, and economical treat- nient for torturing, disfiguring, itching, burning, bleeding, scaly, crusted, and pimply humours, eczemas, rashes, irritations, and itchings, with loss of hair, of infants and children, yet compounded.

MILLIONS USE CUTICURA SOAP

Assisted by CUTICURA OINTMENT, for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stopplag of falling hair, for softening, whitening, aud soothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes, Itchings, and chafings, in the form of baths for annoying irritatious and inflammations, or too free or offensive perspira tion, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sauative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, especially mothiers, and for all the purposes of the tollet, bath, and nursery. No other medicated soap ever compounded is to be compared with it for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair, and hands. No other foreign or domestic toilet soap, however expensive, is to be compared with it for all the purposes of the tollet, bath, and nursery. Thus it combines in ONE SOAP at ONE PRICE, the BEST skin and complexion soap, and the BEST toilet and BEST baby soap in the world.

"THE OLDEST THRONE IN EUROPE."

An Interesting Discovery,

In all the annals of discovery during the last half century nothing is more astoni ahing than the triom ha of the archaeola- glate. At the magic touch of the epziorer's spade, citios such as Ninevon and Beylon have thrown off the grave clothes of centuries and revealed to us their innermost life. These triumphs are not, however, confined to the Ocient alone: The Homeric enthusiasm of Dr H. Schliemann startled the world by his discoveries at Troy, | proving that there was an historical basis to: the immortal poems of Homer. His discoveries at Myconao restored a totally lost chapter in the history of Hellenic art and culture, and although he failed to prove that the tombs in the Agors were those of Agamemnon and his companions, he showed that there was in West Europe and the isles of the Mediterranean a highly developed civilis.tion long prior to the Homerio ago

This, t undoubtedly the oldest palace in Europe dating, as archaeologists show, from 1800 1400 B.C. The arrangements of the hum dreds of chambers, the beautiful Stat rooms, and fresco-decorated corridors, an above all, the astonishing sanitary arrang ments of drains, baths and cisterns, reveal a degree of civilisation far beyond. the early classic times of Greece. All this had passed away and become morely a tradition by the Homer o times, about the ninth century before our era, and was lost until rescued by the explorer's pick,

Ono of the most interesting rooms in this palace is the throne-room and council chamber of the Kings of Knossos-possibly of Minoshimself. The room is situated on the north side of the great central court- yard and was entered by a pillared penalty approached by four broad stops. Thứ porch gave access to an auto-room, where,

SEAMY SIDE OF JAPANESE

CIVILIZATION.

Tho civilized world, regaled by the glowing accounts of such influential J pa use an Baron K. Suetstou and Baron K. Kaneko, has buon led to believe that Japan is an ideal land where no drunkenness, filth, nor misery exist, and where strikes, labor disturbances, and social discontent are un- kuown. In the May Artha, however, we are given the other side of the picture by Mr Kichi Kaneko, who writes, as bohosate,--not-as-a- patriot but as a Japanese socialist. He is appa ently not a relative of his distinguished namesake, the baron. If his words be truė, J pan is licted with the usual social vices and troubles incident to modern 1 fe, nggravated in her case, by over-population and under production of the staple articles of food and clothing, while its people, -frequently assumen very hostile attitude against organized government and the östablished order of things. Mr Keneko.

NJIC

dis of serious strikes in 1889, 1899, 1971, 1902, and in 1904; and in describing the situation of the poorer class of citiz-18 generally he says in sulstatice :

moreover,

The condition of the working weain Japan is a most miserable one. They are working generally twelve hours a day, and samt times fifteen hours, Ordinary work men reeive from 19 to 29 een (10 to 20

cents) a day; skilled laborers from 30 to 40

sen: girls can earn from 10 to 20 ren, and children only a fw sen per day. Even skilled mechapies recrive but 59 sen por yen day; Japanese policemen get only. per month. Carpenters earn 75 sen per day Mr Kangko also has nothing compliment aty to say of the Japanero G. vernment or of the officials who administer public affairs. -From-the great_Maqui, Ito-who is per gonally the worst Ipye of statesman,' and of whose private life,' immorality,' and ** degraded character' he is 'ashamed tr sposk,' down to the despotic policeman who arret too enthusiastie gatherings, they are all bid, and each contributes his part in creating a condition 'smewhat betler,' it's true," than that of our neigh- boting country [Russia]; but whon we como-to compare Japan with England or the United States, we can not but feel ashamed that wo are so far behind both these countries. Tho lake of coun try and loyalty to the Mik-do, univers Bally believed to be a national trait of the Japaneso people is; in the opinion of Mr Kaneko, mainly a fiction of the imagina- tion: Mr Kaneko claims that all the trouble which he eves in his native land is due to the fact that the constitution in 'make-believe' force-provides for only a government of liberty and equality. We quote the following:

Tho Tapaneso government system is the make-believe system. It is not by the people, of the people, for the peoplo. T is the government of the fow, of the no- bles, of the titles, nyt, above_all, of the

It extends a little higher than, the heads of the people, and once you get within this line you are assured of perfect safety all your life; your condition is insured for life; nobody can disturb you; no criticism will affect you. That lino encloses the aris toernoy, the titles, the confidants of the Mikado. You can not hope to prevail against a man within that line. No matter how incapable or unworthy he may he, you must be contented with him otherwise your life is no longer`s .fe...

TFAMOUS PEARLS HIDDEN

IN THE SEA.

The late Empress of Austria had some wonderful pearls, but their lustre-grow sick' as the jewellers say—and only a long Inmersion in the sea would cure then; so now they are in a cage hanging in the dopths of the Adriatic at a spot known to only two or three persons and every year r two a great expert from London goes to examine them. When they wore sunk it was said that 30 years might be required for their 'cure.' Who will wear these jewels when they shall bo recovered is a problem, for the Emperor's hoir is his nephew, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, whose wife, the Countess Sophie Chotek, is only morganatically married to him; however, the chances are that all he same she will one day obtain possession of these wonderful geme.

HOW TO GROW TALL.

The most activo cause for the variation in the height of individuals seems to be olimaatio, influences, and next in importance is physical comfort, It was observed in the Netherlands that the people increased in stature after the abolition of the tax on mills, and the development of commerce, which-added much to the happiness and comfort of the people.

Occupation has much to do with the stature of men. Those who are engaged in the liberal professions aro, ag a rule, much taller than those who do the fiárdor work. The dweller in the cly is nearly always taller than the country workman. These observations would indicate that hard manual. Iabor tends to decrease the

crease in atature. It has been proved by experiment that poor food, bad hygienic conditions,..privations of youth, and the

use of alcohol make small men.. Alcohol

in excess tends to check the growth of the body,

A short man obtains his growth sooner than the man of larger staturo, his develop- ment is o'rlier; his life more intense as a rule, but the Individual is moro quickly ex- hausted, and old age is apt to bo premature. Often the disenses of the man of small stature are rapid and acute. Fr.m the time of Hippocrates -various means have been sought for the devolopment of the height, and to stimulato the growth of individuals whose parents were small.

It is stated by De Springer, of Pau, that a decoction made of cereals, rys corn, whbat and oats, boiled three. hours, strained, sweetened, and drunk when cool, will give very satisfactory results in increasing the growth of chikten or animals. The coreals, containing a large amount of
