When my little girl was one month old, she
had a scab form on her face. 1t kept spread
ing until she was completely covered from
head to foot. Then she had boils She had
forty on her head at one time, and more on
her body. When six months old she did not
weigh seven pounds, pound and half less
than at birth. Then her skin started to dry
up and got so bad she could not shut her eyes
to sleep, but laid with them half open. About
this time, at the earnest request of friends,
started using the CUTICURA REMEDIES, and
in one month she 7gaS completely cHrea.
The doctor and drug bills were over onshw9-

than Jf0e dollars My child is now two years
old, Strong, healthy and large as any child of
her age (see photo) and it is all owing to

was shipped ana the deck became al
most as dry as in tine weather, al

as it commencement, has proved an
entire success.
In 1856 a sharp epidemic of cholera
reached England, and the East End OF
London vas severely attacked. Mrs.
Gladstone can IL contact with it, in
her regular visits to the London hospi-
tai
Whole families were brought in to-
gether, some to die, others to recover.
Parents dying left their children be-
ind tbeu, friendless and helpless
Mrs. Gladstone carried away many
Of the poor little children in her arms
to a convalescent home.
Her free convalescent home had its
genesis in the necessities Of the sick
poor, brought to light by this cholera
epidemic IL was forced upon her
notice that many who had passed
through the dangers Of acute disease
relapsed into serious, and sometimes
fatal, illness for lack of that timely
change of air, wholesome food and
comfortable lodging which they were
unable to lind at home. There were
c0nyalescent establishments in opera
ton, but it was found that they were
already full, or else admission hamper
ed by such conditions of privileged
tickets, weekly payments ana distance
that, before these could be complied
with, the evils sought to be ayerted
had actually occurred
Mrs. Gladstone determined TO es-
tabhsh a conyalescent home, WI ere adj
missions could be quickly arranged
free Of cost. She called TO be-. aid a
committee Of ladies and gentlemen,
qualified by business eXperieu B. pro-
fessional knowledge or familiarity
with the needs Of the poor to cooper
ate with her. They did so Woods
ford is famous.
Mrs. Gladstone gives the girls who
are in service an annual treat every
summer down at the convalescent
home at Woodsford About d year ago
q party Of them enjoyed luncheon and
a tea on the lawn there, under the
shadow Of a rare kind Of sycamore
which their hostess had brought in a
dOwerpot as a little seeding, from an
old tree which spreads its ample
branches close to her orphlnage at
Hawarden. Mrs. Gladstone iJ.I the
girls that, when she planted it, she
never thought to live SO long as to
see it large enough to shelter a party
of forty persons in the shadow of its
foliage Such works of benehcence as
have just been sketchcd are only a few
of those forming a crown Of honor and
glory for the head of the great Pre-
mier'S wife
