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 CurTICURA 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- ment 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 OINTÉENT, for preserving, purifying, and beautifying the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and soothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes, itchings, and chafings, in the form of baths for annoying irritations and inflammations, or too free or offensive perspira- tion, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and for many sanative, antiseptlo purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet, 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 toilet, 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 sosp in the world.-

CUTICURA RESOLVENT. PILLS (Chocolate Costed) are a new, tasteless,

odourless, economical substitute for the cele brated liquid CUTICURA REBOLVENT, as well as for all other blood purifiers and humour cures. Put up in screw-cap pocket vials, containing 60 doses.

stood by the Western mind. Captains who have bad to deal with him are never quite auro how he may show himself, The principle adopted is that of letting a sleep- ing dog lie, and getting the work out of him with as little trouble as possible. Ordinarily, the Chinese coolio is patient of privation and hardship, thrifty and law- abiding. He seems to have earned a fairly good character in the Malay States and other neighbouring countries; and there is little doubt that but for the cast-iron character of the indenture system, and for the presence in the compounds of s good many irreclaimable blackguards, the China- man, it is said, would have given very little trouble in the Transvaal,

At home here, on the Tyne, the Wear, and the Tees, the main cause of these froubles with the Chinese crews is some- thing approaching a breach of faith on the part of the shipowders. When arge tramp comes to a chipbuilding port for repairs, it is sometimes found convenient- from the point of view of the management, to pask the Chinese crows over the country to another ship of the fleet.

So with is moral, support of the law, and with. nothing to prevent him leaving or re- turning to his ship, the unsuspecting Chinaman is packed off to another port with cheerful docility. The captain gives a sigh of relief, but pitics his poor colleague on the other ship who will have to set the transfered men to work. At Sunder- land, a whole gang of Chinamon were lately packed off to another vessel at Hartlepool. They went presumably, because they were accompanied by two policemen who went with them for

Clearly, John Chinaman, turned mariner, is not altogether a tractable individual. He does his work cheerfully enough so long as he is left alone, and allowed to indulge on every possible occasion in his favourite.vice of gambling. If he does not lose more than a few months' wages in advance he will stay by the ship; if he sees his wages. mortgaged for a year or more alioad, ho-will-take-the-opportunity-to-de- Bort. But he does not like being ordered from one ship to another. And occasional- ly, when at sea, be does not like being ordered to do his work. The mate with the horny fist may try a few knock-down blows, but once the recognised leader gives the word that they are not to start, no power on earth, aided even with a loaded Colt, would move him an inch. Still, he is comparatively cheap. And in a country where the lash is not a punishment for de- sortion, and where the seclusion of a prison is a restful change, the Calestial husn fairly good time of it. Whether the anxious captain and officers of the ship are as content with this phase of the yellow trouble is quite another matter.--Newcastle Chronicle.

tiger was put up and passed down the Bullsh at a tremendous pace, some 70 feet below where the Prince was standing and fully 90 yards away. The rince wounded it, and the Maharajali got in a couple of shots before the beast sought shelter in the cover. Elephants were now requisitioned, and they beat through the thorny scrub towards the tower. Just as the light was failing the tiger was put up and driven towards the tower. It broke out in full view and a regular fusillade greetid it, killing the brute about thirty yards from the first line of beaters. It proved to be a eplendid tiger, 9 ft.
