DISFI FIGURED FOR LIFE

Our little girls humor commenced with tiny sore on one nostril, but 1t kept on spread ing till we thought she would never get it cured. We tried everything we could get, but it kept getting larger all the time, till both nostrits, the upper lip, e part of the lolcer lip, and up one side to the eye scere solid sore. We thought there was no cure, and that she would be disfgured for lfe. Finally we tried CuTIcURA REMEDIES. We used CUTICuRA REsoLvENT and nearly box of CUTIcuRA (ointment), and in short time she was en- tirely well, with no scar or trace of the humor.

A Word as to DR.. Gumbart.

To THE EDITOR OF The JOURNAL: As DR..
Gumbart, who is to lecture in the Peoples
Course in place of the late DR.. Brodbeck, is
comparatively unknown here, a personal
word from me to your readers may not be
out of place. l feel that we are very fortu-
nate in securing DR.. Gumbart and from my
personal knowledge of the man and his
record and reputation 1 can assure the pub
lie of very bright and interesting lecture.
DIR. Gumbart is a man of fine personal pres
ence, and always has something bright,
witty and instructive to say. An eminent
Boston lawyer told me that we could not do
better in the city of Boston than to secure
DR.. Gumbart, if possible 1 hope that we
shall give him full house, and if we do
am sure we shall want him to come to Bel
fast again next season.
Respectfully,
JOHN F. T1LToN.
