There is one remedy that seldom falls
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, Itch, pim-
ples, rashes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is a sat,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only 35c; an extra
large bottle, $1.00. It will not stain, is
net greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

None of the German torpedoes found
a mark, but the Morris, emerging from
an enemy smoke screen, cut off a
German destroyer of a largo type and
torpedoed here at a range of 500 yards.’
.There was an explosion in the enemy
vessel and she sank immediately.
Meanwh:le, the Botha had been crip-
pled, and she began to lose her way:
The crew, determined to do what dam-
age they could, fired both their tor-
pedoes at the two leading enemy boats.4
Then, Jier helm having been put hard
over, the Botha rammed another boat
I cleanly amidships, cutting the enemy
vessel in half.
Swinging around the Botha attempt-
ed to repeat the ramming maneuver
on the next German astern. The en-
emy craft, however, eluded the effort
of the crippled Britisher, but only to
fall a victim to the French destroyers.
Ablaze, the German boat lay disabled.
In addition to a pulmotor, the Aus-
tin fire department Boon will get a
first -class gas mask
The gas mask is known by the tech-
nical name of Draeger self-rescuer. It
consists of a misk which pinches over
the nose and enables the person to
breathe only from the oxygen cartridge
that ix held in a container. The mask
is fitted with goggles to protect the
eyes of the wearer. The cOst of the
contrivance is $75. It will be capable
of use for thirty minutes before It will
require a recharging of oxygen.
The "gs mask” will be used in cases
where persons overcome by smoke or
sulphur or ammonia fumes are lying
in rooms of burning buildinge Ordi-
narily, according to Chief Woodward,
it would be impossible to rescue per-
sons In that fix. With the "gas mask"
rescue work will be made easy and
efficient and safe.
The pulmotor is an apparatus for
forcing oxygen into the lungs of the
person overcome by smoke or gas with
the purpose of resuscitating him- The
cost of both pieces of apparatus will
be $200. The money was appropriated
at a recent meeting of the commission

Irregularity prevailed around the
opening of the cotton market here to-
day, near months showing losses of
3 to 6 points' while distant months
were at a slight net advance. This
was due to uncertainty over the situ-
ation abroad. A good demand devel-
oped after the first quarter of an
hour, and the whole list moved up
to a net advance of 11 to 13 points.
On a quiet market the advance was
widened to 12 to 17 points'by 1 o’clock.
Cotton closed steady at an advance
of 14 to 22 points.
Two lectures will be given at the

a variety to choose from.

While proceeding to this port dur-
ing a heavy fug early today a Gov-
ernment patrol boat struck a ledge
off the Gurnet lighthouse and went
to the bottom after all hands had been
taken off by coast guard crews from
south shore stations. There were
twenty-six men in the crew and all
were landed safely.
The’ boat began to leak immediately
after striking and four shots were
fired at 4:45 o’clock with four others
• fifteen minutes later. The signals
caused great alarm along the shore
and crews from Brant Rock and Gur-
net put out at once.
The landing of the men was reported
by the commander of the latter sta-
tion. who notified naval authorities
at Boston that the vessel, which was
138 feet long, had sunk at 8:30 o’clock-

WASHINGTON, March 26—After
more than two hours’ diseussion of
the war situation today the Senate

An able cast, handled in a masterly
manner, has produced a rama of ex-

NEW YORK, March 26—While still
somewhat nervous and irregular, the
cotton market showed a generally
steady tone early today on the higher
cables, dry weather in the Southwest
and increasing opt’mism as to the war
situation. First prices were steady
at an advance of 7 to 13 points on
Liverpool buying and covering, but
reactions of several points followed
under renewed .liquidation or realiz-
ing, with May selling off to 32.70c and
October to 30.80c, or about 2 or 5 points
net lower. As soon as thes ecarly of-
ferings were absorbed, however, the
market stiffened up. on trade buying
with May selling at 32.85c and Oc-
tober at 31.04c before the end of the
first hour, or about 13 to 22 points
net higher.

BOSTON, Mass., March 26.—-Dr.
Kark Muck, conductor of the Boston
Symphony orchestra, was taken to-
day before Federal officials to be
questioned regarding his alleged pro-
Geiman activities. Dr. Muck was ar-
rested at his home last night by agents
of the Department of Justice as an
enemy alien, but no statement was
forthcoming as to the specific grounds
I for this action. It was reported, how-
ever, that Dr. Muck’s secretary a few
days ago appl’ed for blank applications
for passports for Dr. nnd Mrs. Muck.
Dr. Muck, although claiming to be
a Swiss citizen, was born in Bavaria
in 1859, and this, it was said, made it
possible to hold him as an enemy us-
der the President’s proclamation. —
