In this way reducing the work of such agencies, preventing or minimizing expense and facilitating the progress of public im- I provements.

Ons of them had it on her lower limbs.

1 did everything that I could hear of for her, but it did not give in until warm weather when it seemingly subsided. The next winter when it became cold weather the ecierma started again and also in her head where it would take tha hair out and leave bare patches as large as a quarter of dollar. At the same time her arms were sore the whole length of them. I took her to a physician and he said that she had two distinct types of eczema. I continued with him for several weeks and the child grew worse all of the time.

Her sister's arms were also affected in the way. My husband came home one day with a box of Cuticura Ointment and a cake of Cuticura Soap. I began using them and also the Cuticura Pills and by the time the second lot was used their skin was soft and err -oth as it had not been before for the winter. We keep the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment constantly by us and when any little roughness or irritation appears on their skin I quickly dispel it with theCuticura Remedies. My husband has used them with most satisfactory results for a sore head which has troubled bim from childhood.

Cuticura Ointment Is one of the most successful remedies for tortunng, disfiguring humors of the skin and scalp, including loss of hair, of infants, children and adults, ever compounded, in proof of which a single anointing with it, preceded by a not bath with Cuticura Soap, and followed by mild doses of Cuticura Pills, is often sufficient to afford Immediate relief in the most distressing forms of itching, burning and scaly humors, eczemas, rritations and inflammations, permit rest and sleep and point to a speedy cure when all else fails.

INTERBOROUGH'S DEMANDS Seeks Impossible Concessions for Subway Construction. Wants to Build All New Eoads as "Extensions," With Seventy-Year Franchises. Pending official announcement In the near future of the present attitude of the Interborough Rapid Transit Company to ward subway development, It was learned yesterday that nearly every offer of the traction company has been coupled with demands for concessions which the Public Service Commission does not feel Justified in granting. The long series of conferences between representatives of the Interborough and the commission has developed many points or difference, but the chief bone of contention, according to rellable'lnfor-matlon, is the demand of the Interborough that it be permitted to build all new routes as "extensions" to Its pres ent system, with franchises running for seventy years. While the commission Is willing that certain proposed subway routes snouid be constructed as "exten slons.

its members feel that to allow every new underground road in the city uu.it uuuer mai ronn would be to make a mockery of the rapid transit act. At the offices of the Public Service Commission it was learned yesterday that the consents for the Broadway-Lafayette iuu win expire on January 1. as tne situation now stands, there Is nine nope mat tne commission will be in a position to offer that route at auction before February 1, so that it will be necessary to secure a renewal of consents. This, It was stated, the commission is preparing to do. KETJNI01T OF VACATIONISTS.

There was received at the post office a few days ago from Mrs. William W. Wise a letter saying that her husband was 111 with nervous prostration. At the house to-day all information was refused. The hospital authorities said they did not know whence Wise had come, and were unwilling to say what they had diagnosed his aliment to be.

They admitted that he seemed to be troubled with lapses of memory. i (Special to the Eagle.) Worcester, November 24 Will iam W.

There was a row. Houston took a hand, he says', and spoke to the Irate officer, whereupon he was ordered to "beat it." Houston says, he went to the station house on Lee avenue, where he made a complaint against Pattersen.

About 6 o'clock the same evening Pattersen was in plain clothes at Duffield street and Myrtle avenue and had arrested an old man when James Lesser and his friend William Pettlt came along.
