The break- ing out itched and burned and after washing my face 1 was very un- comfortable. I lost my sleep at night on eccount of the irritation, and my skin was sore and red. “I began using Cuticura Soap and Ointment and they helped me. I continued the treatment and after using two cakes of Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuticura Ointment I was completely healed.” (Signed) Miss Jessie Russell, R. 5, Box 107, Ripley, Tenn. Clear the pores of impurities by daily use of Citicura Coap with touches of Cuticura Ointment as needed to soothe and heal. Cuticura Talcum is fragrant and ref Itis probably due to cnnmpmon— that “all in” feeling. Don't be too sure your bowelsare regular.

PLUTO WATER Vi “An Empty Gesture and a Troubled Peace!” N THESE WORDS the Philadelphia Public Ledger sums up the result of the French debt parley in Washington, and the brilliant French journalist, Stephane Lauzanne, picturesquely characterizes it in this phrase: “Once more in the history of the world a ship has sunk with startling suddenness when every one thought she was entering the port.” The New York Daily News says that in asking the French to pay a total sum, interest, and principal, amount- ing to nine billions when they were only prepared to offer six billions—"“we might as well have asked to have the Eiffel Tower sent by parcel post!” The Macon Telegraph leplores the temporary settlement, because it “has opened the way for a barrage of Congres- sional wisdom which will further complicate matters and make a permanent settlement all the more remote.” While the failure of the French and American commissions to come to an understanding strikes many newspapers as an event much to be regretted there are other newspapers which incline for the most part toward the optimistic. “Each side has received from the conversations in Wash- ington a better understanding of the other’s views,” says the New Orleans Times-Picayune. Read “The Literary Digest” this week, the October 10th number, for a comprehensive story of the debt parley, with American newspaper opinion upon the outcome. “What Is Wrong With the Navy Department?”’ Why has the American Navy, under peace conditions, lost more than twice as many ships in the last four and a half years than it lost during the entire pertod of our war with Germany? Between October, 1917, and October, 1918, when every ship was in active service and exposed to the dangers of mine and submarine.we lost five vessels—one converted yacht, one torpedo boat, one cruiser, one coast-guard cutter, and one collier. in striking contrast stand our peace-time losses, which total twelve ships— three submarines, seven destrovers, one naval tug and one training-ship— since April, 1921. These startling figures, cited by the New York "orld. do not include the loss of the naval airship “Shenandoah.” The press throughout the country is commenting upon the recent naval disasters in no uncertain tone as is shown in the summary of press opinion printed in “The Literary Digest” this week, October 10th number. “It would almost seem as though some ominous cloud hung over the Navy Department bent on its annihilation,” says the New Haven Register. Public opinion upon the recent naval tragedies is accurately reflected in this article in “The Literary Digest™” this week.
