Cuticura Soap combines deli
cate medicinal, emollient, sanative,
and antiseptic properties derived
from Cuticura, the great Skin Cure,
with the purest of cleansing in
gradients and most refreshing of
flower odors. For preserving,
purifying, and identifying the skin,
scalp, hair, and hands, for irrita-
tons of the skin, heat rashes, tan,
sunburn, bites and stings of insects,
lameness and soreness incidental
to summer sports, for sanative,
antiseptic cleansing, and for all the
purposes of the toilet, bath, and
nursery, Cuticura Soap, assisted
by Cuticura Ointment, is priceless.

A wart I Pin1pIe
MAY BE DANGEROUS.

When wart, mole or pimple shows
any sign of tenderness it is warning
that bad blood is behind it. Often these
places are on the face, hands, legs or
other part of the body for years, and give
no sign to cause uneasiness, and then
with a little rough handling, slight cut
or bruise will develop into sore that re-
fuses to heal, and the sufferer finds him
self afflicted with cancerous ulcer.

About three years ago blister came
on the ri ght side Of my nose. It grew
speedily in spite of all efforts to heal it
up; the pain was not very severe at first,
but increased when the sore began to
inflame and discharge matter. At times
the place would scab over and appear to
off, leaving a red, angry looking ulcer. I
had almost despaired of ever curing it,
when my attention was called to S. s.. s.,
began to gradually grow smaller, the
discharge stopped and was cured.

SINGLE MILLS CLOSE
FOR TWO MONTHS

TACOMA, Dec. 2.-Shingle mills
of Washington are shu: d own tighter
than a drum today under the agree
ment to close for sixty days. Fires
were drawn last night and i'll many in
stances the day beIole Thanksgiving
for the vacation of two months.
Mill owners took the step in order to
protect their business from the demon
alization OF prices threatened by the
heavy accumulation of stock.
Nearly 800 shingle and combina ton
mills ceased running last night. and
viii remain closed until February {.
since the announcement that more
than 80 per cent of the single output
of the state was pledged to rem ainc
losed sixty days. and that the combinat.
ion mills have pledged themselves to
cooperate to the extent Of sixty per cent
of thelr,output, other mills have join
ed the bureau, and more than eighty
per cent of the mills have posted their
torfeits.
BY the closing down 1900 men are
thrown out of employment i'll the
mills q lone. They earn on the aver.
age of $3.50 day. so there is a loss
in wages of $40 500 day.
1t is estimated that the mills would
use 200, 600 feet of logs a day and
SIS, 900 would represent the loss of
labor in, the logging camps during the
close down.
The reduced output will amount to
,. 800 cars a month, or 5000 carloads
in ALL
