however, flew into a temper and dean. -
ed that the torpedo-boat had; commit-

.risking a collision, and refused- to sidniit
that, according to the laws of Warfare, -
he .hed been torpedoed. M. Camille
Pelletan, on being informed •of the inci-

Mrs. Ann McDonald, Hingsville, Ont.,

the patches of raw, flaming flesh would
extend from my waist to my neck and
from the knees to the ankles. The intense
Itching almost drove me crazy and though -

not even relieve the suffering. The flesh

"I was told of Dr. Chase's Ointment
but did not believe that it could help me.
After the fifth application of this prepare.

soothing, healing eftl-cts, and now attribute
cure to the persistent use of this wonder-
