WILD WITH ECZEMA
And Other Itching, Burning, Scaly Eruptions with Loss of Hair.
Speedy Cure Treatment.
Bathe the affected parts with Hot Water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the surface of crusts and scales, and soften the thickened cuticle. Dry, without hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura Ointment freely, to allay itching, Irritation, and Inflammation, and soothe and heal, and lastly take Cuticura Resolvent Pliis, to cool and cleanse the blood. Asingle set is often sufficient to cure the most torturing, dis- figurlag, 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 crust, tetter, and salt rheum, all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. Such are the CUTICURA remedies, the purest, sweetest, most speedy and economical curatives for the skin, scalp, and blood ever compounded. Mothers are their warmest 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, and sore hands, for baby rashes and chafings, In the form of baths for annoying irritations and Inflammations of women, or too free or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and many annative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves, as well as' for all the purposes of the tollet, bath, and nursery.

He said he belonged to a party which was in a minority in that Chamber, and he was, therefore, able to look at it with that disinterested gaze, that regard of pure scientific speculation, which might be difficult were he, as ho re- cently was, at the head of a majority in the greatest representative chamber which the world now possessed. He was au optimist about the House of Commons. He thought any un who studied the political literature of the last 200 years oduld easily pick out in every decade some excellent sunteți " porary authority who stated that the House of Commons was not what it once was, that its consequence had deteriorated, that ita: general character and standing had diminished, that it no longer carried with 1376 it the authority which in better times it possessed, and that they must look forward to a gradual degradation of its authority,

THE UNRIVALLED

ORATORY AND MANNERS, Of course there were ups and downs. Great orators might disappear, but he did not believe that the level of speaking in the House of Commons had diminished. He did not believe this perhaps sounded even a groater paradox-that the manner of the House of Commons have deteriorated, and
his conviction was that if any one were to take-the-trouble to study in detail the an nals of the past they would find a larger
number of what were called "Scenes" on the posters and described in sensational terms in the newspapers than they would find at the present time. His experiences of the present House of Commons had been for various reasons, some public, some private, of a very limited character. He had not been present in that House very many times since he had the honour of being elected as member for the City of London, and on those occasione he was almost ashamed to think of How much of the time of the House he took up by his own oratory. But so far as hs! observation went of the present House of Commons-bad as that House was in its opinions—he did not believe that there were those signs of decadence the prophets of evil were so eager to put ob record, and he was confident personally that the character of the House of Commons, the purity of its motives, its absolute superi ority to anything in the nature of pecuniary bribes, its power of speech, its toleranos of difference of opinion, its tone of manners towards even those who represented but a small minority existed still, and would remain when this House of Commons had run its race and had to be judged by the historical character of its performances. He believed that they might look forward to a long succession of Houses varying in opinion, but all carrying on untarnished and undiminished the greatest traditions of free institutions which, so far, this world of ours had to show (cheers).
THE IMMEMORIAL PAST.
The toasts of the evening-every one of them-doalt with institutions which went back to an immemorial" past-the Crown, the House of Lords, the House of Com- mons, the Livery Cmpanies, and the Corporation of London. To him that was a moving thought. Here were they in the twentieth century toasting institutions which went back to the very beginnings of British history which had now their living and important place in the life of the Em pite, and none of which could they spare without a sensible-loss to their social life.
hought the interest of the thought was increased by the fact that the toast to which he was responding was proposed by Sir John Forrest, who, as. Lord Selby find said, was an admirable reprosomative of our free Colonios beyond the seas. He belonged to the newest outgrowth of British freedom, British Empire and |FLEAS, BEETLES, BUGS, FLIES..

The influence of the House of Commons spread itself over every portion of the Empire, and he did not think that he had gone far satray in calling to the minds of that great assembly all that was involved in the toast of the two Houses of Parlia ment, which had had in their kooping during all these centuries, the libertice of Britain, and for centuries to come would, hb believed, keep those liberties untouched and uninjured (cheors)..

BATTLESHIP-COALING AT SEA.
German's Successful Invention.
BERLIN, March 14,
A German engineer, named George Leue, has invented an apparatus enabling steamships to take in coal from colliers at sea at the rate of sixty tons an hour while travelling at a speed of eleven knots. Loue'a apparatus, although similar to previous inventions, attains treble the results of former patents, which have not exceeded twenty tons an hour.
Experiments carried out by German warships have proved completely success. ful.
The Kaiser himself watched the apparatus at work, and expressed his satis faction with Loue's invention, which will shortly be adopted for use in the German navy.
MUTINY ON AN ENGLISH SHIP.
Chinese Crew Resorts to Arms.
NAPLES, March 14,
The Mattino publishes an account of an outbreak of insubordination among the crew of the British steamer

which arrived here recently from Portland (Oregon): The ship's company numbered 42, of whom 32 were Chinese.
The Cargo of wheat had been discharged, and the "Epsom" was awaiting orders as to hor now destination when a rumour was circulated on board that before returning to Portland the steamer was to proceed to Lendon
The Chinese were dissatisfied with this news, being anxious to return to Portland, and thence to their native country. They laid their grievance before the captain, who declared that no orders had been received, but in any case the owners' instructions would have to be carried out, without question, as the crew had signed on for two frara, not one of which had as yet slapend.

When the mutineers appeared, they were kept at bay until the arrival on board of a detach mont of Italian Carabineers, who had been summoned. The officer in command of the troops ordered the matineers to lay down their arms. The Chinese obeyed.
They then demanded an interview with
the Chinese Consul, who accompanied them to the British Consul. The latter ordered them to fulfil their contract, threatening to have them arrested if they disobeyed. The Chinese returned to their ship, where their attitude continued to be so threatening that the captain was obliged to retain the troops and police on board during the even

THREAT TO MR. BALFOUR.
#1
Prisoner's Curions Letter.
BERLIN, March 25. Considerable interest attaches to the
case tried before the Second Criminal Court at Chemnitz last week, when Richard Arno Passler, & compositor, was charged with at- tempting to blackmail Mr Arthur Ballour. The evidence showed that on February 4 the prisoner sent a letter from the Limbach post office addresed to Lord (?) Balfour, and demanding, in the name of the "Black Hand for Europe and America," the sum of £5000. In the letter, which was written In German, the focused esid: "You must fulfil the domand, for if you do not heed it, or if you give this letter to the police, you will have to bear the consequences."
The last sentence was doubly underlined, "These," the letter continued, "will be terrible. You cannot plunge yourself and your family into misfortune, but must send The letter the small sum roquested." concluded:
"I warn you against taking any rash stop, otherwise,
1
Passler further asked that the money should be sent to him at his parents' home at Pleissa.
Mr Balfour handed the letter to the German Embassy in London, which im. mediately took steps for the discovery of the culprit, with the result that Passler was arrested on March 2 on a charge of attempting to extort money by threate An investigation showed that the prisoner had nothing whatever, to do with the "Black Hand" organisation.
Cross-orvmined as to why he had selected Mr. Balfour, the prisoner replied that he thought Mr Balfour would do as well as any one else. He was in need of money, and he hoped to get some by menaces, as he had heard such attempts often succeed. The court sentenced him to a month's imprisonment, but, in view of the time which ho had been in prison pending the investigation of the case, he was immediate I released,
