Authoritative data complied here show that the death penalty has been abolished in Holland, Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Rumania, Austria, Latvia, Lithuania, Argentina, Uruguay, if has been abrogated hy disuse in Denmark, Belgium and Finland. it was abolished in Switzerland by federal constitution in 1874, but tile various Cantons retained liberty of action. Fifteen Cantons have not reimposed it. in the remaining ten Cantons there have heen only seven executions during the past forty years. Eight states in the United States have abolished it. Italy abolished the death penalty in 188!), but owing to the frequent attempts against the life of Mussolini, It was reintroduced this year. It can . only be passed’ however, for attacks against the king anti his chief minister. Russia has abolished the death penalty in cases of murder. It is still imposed, however, for rapine and for political offenses. Informed circles here state that a Stop Skin Itching Use healing liquid Zemo Stop worrying about such skin troui bles as Eczema.

During these years he gave his patients a subs stitute for calomel made cf a few well- ; known vegetable ingredientsmixed with ! olive oil, naming them Dr. Edwards’Olive Tablets. Know them by tlieir olive color. These tablets are wonder-workers on the liver and bowels, which cause a nor1 mal action, carrying off the waste and ‘ poisonous matter in one’s system. If you have a pale face, sallow look, dull eyes, pimples, coated tongue, headaches, a listless, no-good feeling, all out of sorts, inactive bowels, you take one of Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets nightly for a time and note the pleasing results.

At vai ions limes the French chumb . er han discussed the abolition of' i capital punishment. A lilll urging its | abolishment, was recently Introduced in the chamber by M. Jbuhatix. Little progress can be reported for the abolition of capital punishment in Asiatic countries. China's varying fortunes and upheavals make it dlffl

Abolition circles here j claim, however, that within the next decade executions In Japan, if not I absolutely non-existent, will be comparatively rare. ———— —o— — "" Mrs. W. 11.
