Speedy Cure Treatment.

Dry, without hard rubbing, and apply Cuticura Olatment - freely, to allay itching, irritation, and Inflammation, and soothe and heal, and lastly take Cuticura Resolvent Pills, to cool and cloanse the blood. A single set is often sufficient to cure the most torturing, dis- figuring, itching, burning, scaly, pimply humours, eczemas, rasties, Irritations, and chafings, with loss of hair, when all else falls..
The agonizing itching and burning of the skin, as in eczema; the fright- ful scaling, as in psoriasis; the fees of hair and crusting of the scalp, as in scalled head; the facial disfigurement, as in pimples and ringworm; the awful suffering of infants and the anxiety of worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tetter, and salt rheum, all demand a remedy of almost superhuman virtues to successfully cope with them. Such are the CUTICURA remedies, the purest, sweetest, most speedy and economical curatives for the skin, scalp, and blood ever compounded. Mothers are their warmest friends.
Millions of Women Use Cuticura Soap
Assisted by CUTICURA OINTMENT for preserving, purifying, and beautify ing the skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts, scales, and dandruff, and the stopping of falling hair, for softening, whitening, and soothing red, rough, and sore hands, for baby rashes and chafings, in the form of baths for annoying irritations and infammations of women, or too frea or offensive perspiration, in the form of washes for ulcerative weaknesses, and many, sanative, antiseptic purposes which readily suggest themselves, as well as for all the purposes of the toilet, bath, and nursery.
CUTICURA RESOLVENT PILLS (Chocolate Coated) are new tasteless,
odourless, economical substitute for the cele
brated Liquid CUTICURE RESOLVENT BFWell as for all other blood purtitors and humour cures. Put up in screw cap pocket vials, containing 00 doses,

I had to get the other off, partly, Then I was obliged to get them both off altogether, except that I kept my fect in the leg so they couldn't get away.
From that time I enjoyed the play, But the first thing I know the curtain came down like that, without any notice, and I. hadn't ny boots on. What's more, they wouldn't go on. I tugged strenuously. And the people in our row got up and fussed and said things until the peach and I simply had to move on.
