The Wa, Lsn9 Trlisss..

On frat Thought ii seems to he a
rather pnradoxicul statement that the
nearer we approach 10 the equator the
shorter is that intermediate stage or
transition from day to night and from
night to day which We call "twilight.'
This being the cnse. however. the pc.
Rod OF duration OF the dim. uncertain
light" In all tropical countries is very
short when compared With that Of
countries Df higi, northern or southern
latitude. Tho explanation Ia this: On
the equator the SUNS path Is at exact
right angles with the horizon. The lag
beam Of light fades from, view when
the sun Ia at 10 degrees below the hort.

Untold Suffering and Constant
Misery-AwuI Sight From that
Dreadful Complaint, lnfantiIe E.
zema- Commenced at Top Of his
Head and Covered Entire Body.
MOTHER PRAISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

."OuY baby had that dreadful COM
plant, Infantile Eczema, which afflicted
him for several months, commencing at
the top of his head, and at last covering
his whole body. His sufferings were
untold and constant misery, in fact,
there was nothing we would not have
done to have given him relief. The
family doctor seemed to be wholly
incapable of coping with the case, and
after various experiments of his, which
resulted in no benefit to the child, we
sent to Macon, ILL.,, to druggist and got
q full set of the Cuticura Remedies and
applied as per directions, and nc began
to improve Immediately, and in about
three or four days began to show a
brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in year. In about ninety
days he was fully recovered, with tho
exception of rough skin, which is
gradually disappearing, and eventually
will be. replaced by healthy one.
"Praise for the Cuticura Remedies
has always been our greatest pleasure,
and there is nothing too good that We
could say in their favor, for they GER
tainly saved our baby's life, for he was
the most awful sight that / ever bcheld,
prior to the treatment of the Cuticira
Remedies. Mrs. Maebelle Lyon, 1926
