Mother Says: "Cuticura Rene

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent
physician, for an obstinate case of
eczema, l resorted to the Cuticura
Remedies, and was so well pleased
with the almost instantaneous relief
afforded that we discarded the physl-
clans prescription and relied entirely
on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuticura Pills When we
commenced with the Cuticura Rene
dies her feet and limbs were covered
with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble. We find that the Cuti-
cura Remedies are valuable house

caused by improper food and indiges-
ton than most people, imagine. Even
doctors sometimes overlook this fact.
A man says:

butter with meat and gravy were the
main features of my breakfast. Final
ly dyspepsia came on and / found my
self in a bad condition, worse in the
morning than any other time. / would
have a full, sick feeling in my stom-
ach. with pains in my heart, sides and
head.
"At times / would have no appetite
for days, then ] would feel ravenous,
never satisfied when ! did eat and so
nervous l felt Ike shrieking at the
top of my voice. | lost flesh badly
and hardly knew which way to turn
until one day bought box of Grape
Nuts food 10 see if ! could eat that.

and liked it fine; made me feel as If

ELIOT TO SERVE.
Rules Proposed By Graduates Commit
 tee of Harvard Are Hopeless.

Cambridge, Mass, January n.-Presi- dent Eliot of Harvard university says of the measures suggested by the graduates committee of Harvard for improving foot ball:
 ''The regulations of the graduates com mittee are entirely inadequate. The rules are hopeless"
 It was learned today that at yesterday s secret meeting of the Harvard overseers a statement from President Eliot on the question of football was read and con- sidered. In 1t President Eliot scored the conditions under which the game is play ed, especially with reference to the rules, ''the tremendous expenditure of money and the absolutely professional spirit and management"
 It Is understood the overseers favored so thorough a change in the rules as to abolish practically all of the worst fea- lures of the game. The overseers also favored an opinion from the student body in athletics at Harvard
