T4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL 2 DVEBT !SE!INT& FOR WOMEN. Much That —Evury vmmani Desires fo Know | About Sanative Antisep- tic Cleansing | Emi about the Care of the Skin, Scalp, Hair and Hands. Too much stress cannot be placed on the great value of Cuticura Soap, Oint- ment and Resolvent in the antiseptic cleansing of the mucous surfaces and of | the blood and circulating fiuids, thus | affording pure, sweet and economical loea! and oonstitutional treatment for weakening ulcerations, inflammations, ftchings, frritations, relaxations, dis- | 4 placements, pains and irregularities peculiar to females. Hence the Cuti- cars remedies have a wonderful influ- ence in restoring health, strength and besuty to weary women, who have been prematurely aged and invallded by these distressing allments, as well as sach sympsthetic affiictions as ansmia, chlorosis, bysteria, nervousness and debility. Women from the very first have fally apprecisted the purity and sweetness, the power to afford immedisate relief, the certainty of speedy and permanent care, the sbsolute safety and great | economy which bave made the Cuticura remedies the standard skin cures and humour remedies of the clvilized world. Millions of the women use Cuticura Soap, assisted by Cuticura Olntment, for preserving, purifying and beauti- fying 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 annoying irritations, and ulcerative weaknesses, and for msny ssnative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themseives, as well as for all the purposes of the tollet, bath and nursery. 50i¢ thmooghout the world._Catieurs form of u::m-\m Pme 2 meat, 30c., Depots: Londor.

He claims that the Auditor right in paying the demands, and that the section of the constitution prevents the raising of an officer's ring his incumbency does not apply in case.

Bent by the weight of 70 years and heart hroken over the death of his daugh- ter who was called an Tuesday, Charles H. Holling died yesterday, on the dawn- ing which was to see the earth hide forever the form which was so dear to| For several months the old man | him, had been hovering in the shadow of the beyond, attended caonstantly by Mrs. Laura V. Hachmann, the child who was 80 dear to him. When consumption sud- denly claimed her the feeble flame of life remaining to the aged parent flickered to extinction in the early hours of dawp. For several years past the declining years of Holling have been cheered by the presence of the daughter, who, to- gether with her husband, Jullus Hach- mann, has been living at the home of the old man, 1123 Geary street.” With the love of the winter of life which has been be- reft of all other dear ones the aged fath- er cherished his daughter as all that was remaining to him in his declining hours. The daughter on her part was the con- stant companion of her father and her love for him was unbounded. But Mrs. Hachmann fell a victim to the ravages of consumption recently and after a rapid decline she passed away on Tues- day at the age of 37 years. So heavily did the blow fall on her fathep that the old gentleman spent hours by her coffin and gefused to leave the side of the dear one who had gone before him. On Wed- nesday he went to Laurel Hill and se- lected the gbot in which his dear one should be placed, little knowing that it was 50 soon to contain two freshly heap- ed mounds. Dr. Marquis-Canac, who attended the daughter in her illness, then devoted his attentions to the father, fearlig that the blow would be teo much for the feeble old man. His fears.were swiftly real- ized, for when a member of the house- hold went to arouse the old gentleman at an early hour yesterday morning he ‘was found dead. The funerdl of the daughter was held yesterday, and the body of the ald man who cherished her more than life itself witl follow that of his child to-morrow, so that in death they will not be far sep- arated. Carpenter Injured by Fall. W. E. Waener. a carpenter residing at 134 Fourth street, sustained senious in- juries yesterday by faling from a stag- Jing on a building at Buchanan and O'Far- rell streets. Wagner with other workmen was on the staging, when in some un- accountable manner he lost his balance and fell a distance of thirty feet, strik- ing a protruding scantling in his descent. When he was removed to the Central Emergency Hospital Dr. J. V. Leonard, the assistant surgeon on duty, discovered that Wagner's right shoulder blade was | broken at the shoulder joint, three ribs on the same side were fractured and sev- eral lacerated wounds inflicted on the head and body. His injuries may prove fatal. —_———————— The, most delighttully blended whisky known to the human palate is *Jesse Moors”— standard for over fifty vears Concert at Presidio.
