WILD WITH ECZEMA
And Other Itching, Burning, Scaly Eruptions with Loss of Hair.
Speedy Cure Treatment.
Bathe the affected parts with Hot Water and Cuticura Soap, to cleanse the surface of crusts and scales, and soften the thickened cuticle. 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 cleanse the blood. A single set is often sufficient to cure the most torturing, dis- '.' figuring, itching, burning, scaly, pimply bumours, eczemas, rashes, Irritations, and afings, with loss of hair, when all else fails.
The agonizing itching nod burning of the skin, as in eczema; the fright- ful scaling, as in psoriasis; the loss 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 dardruff, 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 inflammations of women; or too free 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.

"DON'T LAUGH-AND GROW RICH,"
Ian Maolaron's" Opinion.
"Laugh and grow fat" has a rival. It Is the now proverb, "Don't laugh, and grow rich."
"It is my profound conviction that a sense of humour is a hindrance to practical success in life," said Dr John Watson, the distinguished author, who is botter known as "Ian Maclaren," and who was speaking | at Burnley recently.
"Young men can congratulate them- selves if they lack this dangerous quality. If they possess it they should hide it behind
a sustained and impenetrable solemnity
until they have achieved a competence.
"A sense of humour should be kept as a luxury for foolish old age.'
th
Ono case which might be quoted ha proof of the truth of Dr. Watson's dictum is that of Mr. Chauncey Depew. But for the fact that he is a humorist, it has often been said, he would have been President of the United States years ago...
