A friend asked me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I would bathe my face with hot water and a lot of CuticiiTa Soap, then I would put on the Cuticura Ointment.

When their brief, terms of enlistment ran out they Incontinently took themselves off; and Washington's most earnest appeals to the continental and provincial congresses to provide for longer enlistments and an adequate system of recruitment did not always suffice to prevent his force from perilously dwindling away under his very eyes.

With the first month of spring Washington determined to cut lnacttoa short and make a decisive stroke. He had been long enough with the army now to presume upon Its confidence and obedience, though be followed his counsels. Siege cannon had been dragged through the unwilling forests all the way from Ticonderoga; the supplies and the time had come; and on the morning of the 5th of March. 1776, the British stared to see ramparts and cannon on Dorchester Heights. It was like the work of the genii of Aladdins wonderful lamp, declared one of their astonished officers. Occupies Dorchester Heights. Wtfy they had themselves neglected to occupy the hills of Dorchester, and had waited so patiently till Washington should have time and such guns as he needed, was a question much pressed at home in England; and their stupidity was rewarded now They had suffered themselves to be amused all night by a furious cannonading out of Roxbury, Somerville-- and East Cambridge, while two thousand men, a battery of heavy ordnance, and hundreds of wagons and with timber, bales of hay, spades, crowbars, hatchets, hammers, and nails, had been gotten safely to the Dorchester hills. When they saw what had happened they thought of the assault upon Bunkers hill, and hesitated what to do. A violent storm blew up while they waited, rendering an attack across the water impracticable, and when ' the calmer morning of the 6th dawned It was too late; the American position was too strong. Neither the town nor the harbor could safely be held under fire from Dorchester Heights. The British Evacuate. There was nothing for it but to evacuate the place, and no one gainsaid their departure. By the 17th they were all embarked, eight thousand troops and nine hundred loyalist citizens of Boston, and had set sail towards the north for Halifax. They were obliged to leave behind them more than two hundred cannon and a great quantity of military stores of every kind powder, mussmall-arm- s whatkets. ever an army might need. When Washington established himself In General Howes headquarters. In Mrs. Edwards comfortable lodging-hous- e at the head of State street, he could congratulate himself not only on a surprising victory brilliantly won, but on the possession, besides, of more powder and better stores and equipments than he could have dreamed of in bis camp at Cambridge. He caught up his landladys little granddaughter one day, set her on his knee, as he liked to do, and asked her, smiling, which she liked the better, the redcoats or the provincials. The redcoats, said the child. Ah, ray dear, said the young general, a blithe light in his blue eyes, they look better, but they dont fight The ragged fellows are the boys for fighting." Washington Leaves Boston. But he did not Unger at Boston. He knew that Its capture did not end, but only deepened, the struggle. Reinforcements would be poured out of England with the spring, and the next point of attack would unquestionably be .New Yorki the key to the Hudson. Here again was a city flanked about bn either hand by water, and commanded by heigbys the heights of Brooklyn. A garrison must be left In Boston, and New York must be held for the most part by a new lvy, as raw. as ill organized and equipped, as factious, as uncertain in capacity aDd purpose, as that which had awaited his discipline and guidance before Boston. s s, An Ever-Changin- g Army. It was an army always and to be made. The sea was open, moreover. The British could enter the great harbor when they pleased. The Insurgents had no naval force whatever with which to withstand them on the water. There were a score of points to be defended which were yet without defence on the long Island where the town lay, and round Arnold bad no cause to be ashamed of about the spreading arms of the sea the gallant affair. that enclosed It; and there were hut Failure though it was, It heartened eighteen thousand mllltla-memusthe troops before Boston to think what tered lor the formidable task, in the might he done under such officers. midst of an active loyalist populaMrs. Washington Visits Camp. tion.

Unable to do more, he had ravaged the coasts on either haad upon the bay, and had put men ashore within the rivers to raid and burn, making Norfolk, with Its loyalist merchants, his headquarters and rendezvous. Driven thence by the provincial militia, he had utterly destroyed the town by fire, and was now refuged upon Owynns island, striking when he could, as before, at the unprotected hamlets and plantations that looked everywhere out upon the water. Virginias only executive, these nine months and more, had been her committee of safety, of which Edmund Pendleton was president. Carolina Declares Independence. Washington had hardly begun his work of organization and defence at York before North Carolina Ne (April 12, 1776) authorized her dele- gates In the congress at Philadelphia to Join In a declaration of Independence; and the next month (May 15) tha congress advised the colonies to give over all show and pretence of waiting for or desiring peace or accommodation; to form complete and independent governments of their own, and so put an end to "the exercise of every kind of authority under the BULK TEA all.
