The Most Wonderful Curative
Of All Time
For ToTtuTing, Disfiguring
Skin Hum0urS
And Purest and Sweetest Of
Toilet EnOIIientS.

Cuticurs Ointment is beyond question
the most successful curative for tortur-
Ing, disfguringhumours Of the skin and
scalp, including loss OF hair. ever
compounded, in proof of which q
single amounting preceded by a hot bath
with Crticura Soap, and followed In
tbs severer cases, by dose of Cuti-
cura ResoIvent, Is often sufficient to
afford immediate relief in the most
distressing forms Of ftchisg, burning
and scaly humours, permit rest and
sleep, and point to speedy cure when
all other remedies fail. 1t L. especially
so in the treatment Of infants and chill
dren, cleansing, soothing and healing
the most distressing of infantNe hui
mours, and preserving, purifying and
identifying the skin, scalp and hair.
Cuticura Ointment possesses, at the
same time, the charm of satisfying the
simple wants of the toilet, In caring for
the skin, scalp, hair, hands and feet,
from infancy to age, far more effect
ually, agreeably and economically than
the most expensive of toNet emollients.
Its "Instant relief for skin-tortured
babies" or " Sanative, antiseptic cleans
ing" or "One-night treatment Of the
hands or feet" or " Single treatment
of the hair" or "Use after athletics"
cychng, golf. tennis. riding, sparring,
or any sport, each In connection with
the use Of Cuticura Soap, is sufficient
evidence Of this.

REPLIES TO A QUESTION

man and Never Had One.

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 6.-United States
Pension Commissioner Eugene F. Ware
reached Topeka at noon today for a
twenty-four hour stop enroute to the
G. A R. reunion at San Francisco.
In reply to question as to the charges
of Albert Martin being dismissed from
the Topeka pension office as being a vio
lation of the civil service rules. Mr..
Ware said:
Il have not seen the newspaper ac-
counts of the charges. but understood
that 1 am charged with promoting my
coachman in the bureau. AS 1 never
had a coachman or coach, l think this
must be a mistake.
I'VE have done more business in the
pension office this past year than in any
similar time for ten years.
''As you will see, / am not charged
with misconduct of office in any manper
save a violation of the civil service
rules No shortage of funds is alleged.
I'm reality it seems TO me an attack
upon the administration through this
bureau by enemies of President Roose-
welt.
