Our little daughter, now fifteen months old,
was troubled from her birth with Eczema.
Her face, arms, hands, and neck would break
out with red pimples, the parts afflicted
would swell and become terribly infiamed,
water would ooze out like great beads of per-

skin would crack and peel Off. She suffered
terribly. Had to wear soft mittens on her
hands to keep her from scratching. We gave
two of our leading physicians good trial,
but neither of them helped her in the least.
purchased CUTIcuRA SOAP, CUTICURA (oint-
ment)s and CUTIcURA REsoLvENT, and COM
menced using them as follows: After bath
ing wiped herwith a soft linen cloth, applied
CUTIcURA (ointment) freely, ard gave her the
REsoLvEST regularly. She improved at once
and is now never troubled, although we have
used less than ore bottle of REsoLvENT, three

Of the Pyramid Pile Cure are borne out
by the facts.

his wife about year ago near Micanopy.
The execution was attended by no I'M

James was cool to the last and exhibited

A peculiar incident connected with the
trial was the appearance of a young lady
upon the gallows with a kodak. Though
she was the only lady present among 800
men she was as much composed as though
she was photographing some landscape,
rather than murderer on the gallows.
James fell seven and one half feet, his
