External application of salves, washes, lotions, etc., may relieve some of
the itching- and other discomfort caused by skin troubles, and for this reason
should ,e used, but such treatment cannot reach the humor-laden blood,
and therefore cannot cure. A thorough cleansing- of the blood, is the only

ay Department Will Try a Green

Invisibility Is the Object Sought by
Officials White Painted Vessels
Can Be Seen and Their Identity
and Power Established at Far as
Glass Can Reach.
Uoston, Mass., Sept. 5. The famous
"white squadron" of the American
navy may become a "green squadron"
as a result of a series of tests that
were commenced this week with the
big auxiliary cruiser Yankee off the
Massachusetts coast. I'.arly in the
week the Yankee left the Cliarlcstown
navy-yard, where every portion of her
exterior had been painted a deep slate
green. The cruiser was then sent to
sea f r a scries of tests to determine
at what distance she would be dis
cernible in the new color, and how it
would act in various sorts of weather.
Later the Yankee will be painted
other shades of green, and the same
experiments will be made. The re
sults of the tests will not be an
nounced until the experiments have
been completed, though it is pretty
well understood that some one of
the shades will be selected. The
navy department recently decided that
the white painted warships were too
easily seen at a distance, and their
identity 'and power were clearly dis
closed as far as the eye or glasses
could reach. Acting- on the advice
and recommendations of the K'neral
war board, of which Admiral Dewey
is chairman, it was decided to have
a series of practical experiments to
absolutely prove the advantage of a
more somber color ami to test, by
practical methods, the various shades
of green paint as a method of hiding
i ships approach. 1 he carrying of
the painting scheme to the masts, ven
tilators and every exposed portion of
the ship's exterior above the water
line is a new idea.

This makes a total of 117 during the

having taken the oath of office, failed
to do their duty."
