you may think what a mesa she msde,
pulling tha entire skin off. We took her
to a chemist who told us to get a doctor,
which w did. He tended her a week
and gave ma some stuff like lard to put
on. But it all festered and I thought
tha babv waa disfigured for life. A
woman close) betlda ma told ma to try
Cuticura Ointment.- I used about three)
boxes and it was wonderf ul how it bealod.
In about five weeks It waa bettor and
there wasn't A mark to tell whom tha
acald had been. People used to ask ma
if that was tha babv that waa sualded
and they would hardly believe me when
I told them she was and what cured her
face. Her skia ia Just like velvet and I
have never been without Cuticura sinoa.
Cuticura cured thro other children of

NEW YORK. Feb. S.-'Tha committee ap.
pointed by Governor Hughes to Investigate
the working, of the various exchanges In
New York looked Into the affairs of the
New York Metal exchange today. At the
close of the session Horace White, chair
man of the committee, said:
We discovered that there Is really no
such thing as the New Yor Metal ex
change. Three men composing a committee
give out certain quotations on copper dally,
which figures sppear to be as near as they
csn poBslbly come to actual transactions.
That appears to be all there la to tits
Metal exchange.
'A great amount of business Is done daily
In copper in London. The eyes of the world
are on that market. The quotations posted
on the Now York Metal exchangs are
largely .based on London transactions. A
number of metal dealers pay about S50 a
year for the support of this New JTork
Metal exchange, and for that they have
the- privilege of walking In and out of the
place and looking at the poated quotations.
It appears that whatever transactions some
of these metal dealers may have In copper
and soma of them buy for brass manu
facturers they appear to base their oper
ations on quotations appearing in the Metsl
exchange.

Tha convention organised by Rev. Dr.
Wesley Hill ta advocate a larger American

spesker tonight Henry Claws, the banker,
who declared against government subsidy,

transfer of foreign-built ships to American
reaMstry.
-The peopla ot tU United. Btates.- ' said
Mr. Clews, "owe it to themselves as a
great commercial nation to build up the
American mercantile marine and they have
also a patriotic duty to perform in the
furtherance and accomplishment of this
desirable result. Its present significance
is almost a national reproach and disgrace."
Mr. Clrws also advocated removal or re
duction of the duties on the materials used
In ship building so. that Americans would
be enabled to build ships In competition
with the old world shipbuilders.
