ECZEMA GONE, BOILS CURED

use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
and in a few days noticed : a marked

was almost healed, and his shoulders,
arms and breast "were decidedly bet

months old all trace of the eczema
was gone. - r"",
.."During his teething period, his
head and face were broken out In
boils which- I cured with Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. Surely he must
have been a great sufferer.' During the
time of teething and from. the time I
dropped the doctor's treatment, I used
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint
ment, nothing, else, and when two
years old he was the picture of health.
His complexion was soft and beauti
ful, and his head-a mass of silky curls.
I had been afraid that he would never
b well, and I feel that I owe a great
deal to the ' Cuticura Remedies."

justice Alverstone said that, the pun
ishment was inadequate for one whq
had chosen a weapon for a personal
attack upon. His ' Majesty, from the
use f of which every honorable man
would recoil. " 4 -
The storyor the now exploded ro
mance had been current for a long
time, but -it -became specidlly irritat
ing jto' British sensibilities following
King George's accession. As "pub
lished by Edward H. James, editor of
The Liberator,1 it set forth that dur
ing the - lifetime of the Duke of
Clarence, his elder brother, and be
fore George became . heir to . ' the
throne, the future' King visited Malta,
where he ' fell in love with and mar
ried Mary Elizabeth ; Culme-Seymour,
eldest daughter of the Admiral, wno
was then stationed at Malta ascom-mander-in-chief
of the Mediterreanean
squadron. This was; supposed to be
in 1890; but the admiralty records
chnnsii that he Klne did not hold an
appointment on any ship that visited
Malta between the fall of 1888 and
and summer pf 1893. The marriage
records of the Island of Malta" were
produced to prove that no such mar
riage has - been ' recorded, . Admiral
Culme-Seymour swore that his two
daughters, one of -c whom had since
died, never had had an opportunity to
meet . His -Majesty. The Admiral's
three sons gave similar testimony and
finally the . daughter' In question, -who
is now the wife of Captain N. Napier,
entered the witness box and declared
that vshe had seen the King but three
times in her life. On the first occasion
she was 7 years old. She saw him
again at Portsmouth, when" he called
upon her father in 1898, eight years
after the alleged marriage, and once
again at a garden party 4 in 1903, on
which occasion she did not have a
chance to address him. " ; "
Mylus offered no testimony and
did not examine the Crown's witness
es.. He confined his defense;- which
he conducted himself, to - technically
ties, asserting that he could not .be
legally tried in the absence of his
accuser. v
Sir Ruf us Isaacs, the Attorney
.General, --who :.led 'the prosecution, in
his closing .speech denounced the
defendant as the circulator, of a base
libel. The Attorney General conclud
ed his appeal to-the -jury-by saying
that It, was V hot the throne which
required defense but that His Majes
ty had sought the protection of the
court as a man, husband and father.
The proceedings canie to a dramatic
close when, -after sentence had been
pronounced. Sir. Ruf us read a letter
from King George in which the writ
er set forth that only the .advice of
Officers of the- Crown that such - a
course would be unconstitutional, had
prevented him from appearing per
sonally in the '' court room and pub
licly branding as untrue - the allega
tion that he ; had ever entered Intt
any marriage alliance other than thav
contracted with Queen Mary.

la" effect to those assertions made br
..ironii-i letter e inlners through-;
out the South-claiming that-the .Gerf
man1 potash law,' which places ;a J?en
alty pn mines selling heavily; to Amert
leans at: a lower price., than has for;
merljr ruled, is merely, a part of the
general -conservation - poifcy1 of ?f r
jnany." "- 7 "'r- --! -'.-'.-:' . .-
According fto' Ochslmus, a heading
"Germaa - geologist, there ; are ; about
39,000 square milesTof potash in one
secUbn- of Germany u each of ? theso
containingt some 50,000,000 .. tons of
purer jwtash.Thisxsame authority
e-too hat the .'onn"al output from
these mines Is about 600,000 tons each.
and he figures that if -the annual out
pufshould Jump to 5,000,000 tons an
nually it would .stm "require 21,600
years to exhaust the supply. !:
- Another of . Germany's assertions is
that j the , law doest not discriminate
agalist Americans. . The' brief of; the
American potash buyers Jcommlttee
submitted to congress points out that,
nnde'r the law as .recently passed by
Germany? the mines of the potash
trust Ad. that country were allowed a
proporticn of output sufficient to sup
ply tho world, while , the independent
mines" that had;mhae contracts fo sup
ply 'the United" States, at . a reduced
priced were limited to .one-fourth f
their actual sales already made to us.
In addition a penalty pf $22 , per ton
.was1 Imposed for "overproduction." Thus
the j penalty falls exclusively ' upoa
shipments to this country, and indi
rectly upon the consumer.;7-r-: - 1
; An effort isj-apparently being made
to create tho impression that this con
troversy Is really a contest between
the : policy of the German government
and an American trust -.. The fact Is
that there is no such complete and
powerful trust in the United States
as this German ; . potash - syndicate.
This . syndicate actually monopolizes
the entire potash supply of ;the world,
save for the two mines that; broke
away from the trust and sold to Amer
ican - buyers. . In i this country there
are about 70 different, fertilizer manu
facturers using potash, and. of these
about 75 per cent are Independent ot
any tnistaffillation. -: : ;
Another claim made by the German
committee at the. White House was to
the effect that th American buyers
knew that a law"r would be passed, pro
viding, for goverhment,taxes and penr
alties to; be assessed and" that they
made-theee' contracts with this knowl
edge, in mlndl" "?rhe American commit
tee states positively that this. Informal
tlon.was brought ;-; to them" after the
contracts Were - made, and ; used as -a
club In an attempt to force them to
give yp the contracts already entered
into, which- would have reduced the
price of ; fertilizer ' materially in this
' country. , '--- i''M-l '"-;
: : An official high . in the government
here Is authority for ? tho statement
that tha cost of this controversy, must
necessarily-' fall--upon the consumer,
and that: it ' should, therefore, be set
tled quickly. . - While the American'
companies paying a penalty have met
tho prices inauVby fhe German trust
that pays no penalty, this has beon-
done at a loss, and-should "they " with
draw from the field because " of this,
the price of fertilizer in this country
would be dictated by the Qermaa
monopolyuntrammelled in Berlin.
