FOR BABY'S SKIN
SCALP AND HAIR
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 baths with CUTICURA SOAP, to cleanse the skin of crusts and scales and soften the thickened cutlole, 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 suffering of akin-tortured infants and children and the comfort of worn-out, worried mothers. A single set is often sufficient to cure when the best physicians fail.
L
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 dandruff, and the stopping of failing hair, for softening whitening, and soothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes, itchings, and chainga, in the form of baths for annoying irritations and Inflammations, or too fres or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerativo weaknesses, and for many Bauative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves to women, especially mothers, and for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery.
CUTICURA RESOLVENT PILLS (Chocolate Coated) are prepared to meet the wants of delicate women, and sensitive children, and are puro, sweet, and tasteless. They RIG beyond question the most successful blood purifiers and humour curos yet compounded.
CUTICURL REиanies are sold throughout the world. Australia Depoti R. Tomra a Co., Sydney. British Depot: 37-23, Charterhous Eg, London. French Depots & Rue de la Paix, Paria. Fortes Davo And Chr. Cour, Sole Props, Boston, U. B. A. All about the Skin," fies.

In spite of his sixty yours, H. E. Chang Trêng.yong, the newly-appointed Governor of Chakiang, seems to be noting energetical- ly in the matter of yambu abuses, and though the exact measures taken may not commend them-lves to Western minde; the result will possibly be beneficial in dealing with a well-nigh insoluble problem.
From a Ningpo letter it appears that one of the chief runners of the district magistracy of Chinghai, at the mouth of the Yung river, Ningpo, whose notoriety in sque.zing every unfortunate who happened to have business with the magistrate is known throughout Ningpo, attempted the other day for a certain sum of money to hush up a serious cse, and this becoming known to the magistrato he made an investigation into the case.
By moans best known to those concerned, this runner had almost persuaded his chihhsion of his innocence when the matter was taken up by several of the gentry of Chinghai, who forced the magistrate to imprison bisfrunner and then reported the occurrence to Governor Chang Teêng-yang. demanding the punishment of the oulprit and the censure of the official who was trying to screen the miscreant.
The Governor sent a confidential deputy down to the spot to make secret investiga- tios and found that the misdeeds of the ronger filled such a long list, e vering same dozen to fifteen years' time, that his Exellency decided the man unworthy to live any longer. Stern injunctions were Accordingly not without delay to the Chinghai magistrate, commanding him to bring out the runner from his place of con- finement, and in the great judgment hall (Ta-tang) of the chibhsien's yamên the miscreant was beaten to death with long bamboos.

Further, which is a good idea, it is said that if the people through whose land the line runs are interested in the success and the safety of the railway, they will see to it that there shall be as little trouble as possible. If they do so it will not be necessary to employ so large a number of Goldiers to keep the peasantry in order and tho prevent them from laying hands on property of the Company. This is surely a capital suggestion and if it can be carried out will do much to secure peace along the route through which the line will be laid.
