IN ONE MONTH

A grateful mother, in the following
letter, tells of another of those mar

my baby was four months old her
skin broke out with humor. I took
her to a doctor, who said it was
eczema. He gave me medicine to
give her, but she kept getting worse
all the time. Her little face and body
were so covered with sores and large
scales you could not tell what she
looked like. No child ever had
worse case. Her face was being eaten
away, and even her finger nails fell
off. Then it itched so she could not
sleep, and for many weary nights we
could get no rest. At last we got
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, first
bathing her in warm water with the
Soap, and then spreading on the ONT
ment with soft cloths. saw change
in a week. The sores began to heal,
and she could sleep at night, and in
one month she had not one sore on
her face or body. Any mother hav-
ing children with eczema or humors
will find friend in Cuticura Soap
and Ointment. (signed) Mrs. Mary

The foregoing statement justifies
the oft-repoated assertion that Cuti-

the money and in course Of time was
transferred TO various branches in pro-
motion. A few mornings ago he re-
ceived letter, forwarded to him from
his old lodgings in Loughrea, contain
ing two $50 notes, with an anony-
nous communication stating that the
addressee had paid the money out in
error some twenty years ago, and ex-
pressing the hope that the restoration
of the money had not come too late.
