Mr. J. Hays (of Messrs. Johnson, Stokes and Master) appeared in support of, while Mr. F. B. L. Bowley (of Messrs. Donnys and Bowley) opposed the application on the grounds that there was no act of bankruptcy committed.
Mr. Bowley stated that the object of the opposition was for the debier to establish his character. He had no intention of reaming away, and only went to Cunton to make a loan The erilance of the act of bankruptcy was alsolutely insufficient, and the present potition against the debtor ought to be dismissed, as he returned to Hongkong with the money to pay his creditors, but found his shop it possession of their watchman.
Mr. Hags contended that if the debtor bad hren going to Canton to negotiate a loan he would have rather courted questions, and would have told his fokis to acquaint anyone who called at his shop in his absence with the roacon of his visit to Canton.

Mrs. George H. Tucker, Jr., 335 Green- field Avenue, Milwaukee, Wis., is a grateful mother. "When six months old," she says, "my little girl weighed a pound and a half less than at birth. When one month old a scab formed ber face, spreading until it completely covered her from head to font, followed by boils, having forty on her head at one time, and more on her body. Then her ekin started to day up, and it became so bad she could not shut her eyes to sleep. One month's treatment with Cuti- sura Soap and Ointment made a com- plete cure, and now my child is a large, strong, and healthy as any child of her age.
