APPLICATION OF
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"I am never without Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment since | tried
them last summer. About the latter
part of July my whole body began to
itch. | did not take much notice of it
at first, but it began to get worse all the
time, and then | began to get uneasy
and tried all kinds of baths and other
remedies that were recommended for
skin humors; but | became worse all
the time. My hair began to fall out and
my scalp itched all the time. Espe-
cially at night, just as soon as would
get in bed and get warm, my whole body
would begin to itch and my finger nails
would keep it irritated, and it was not
long before | could not rest night or day.
A friend asked me to try the Cuticura
Remedies, and did, and the first appli-
cation helped me wonderfully. For
about four weeks / would take hot
bath every night and then apply the
Cuticura Ointment to my whole body;
and / kept getting better, and by the
time used four boxes of Cuticura was
entirely cured, and my hair stopped
falling out, but / continue to use the
Cuticura on my scalp. 1t keeps all dan

Fall Trade Will be Fine.

Not within the last ten years
has the outlook for fine fall
and winter trade been so flatter
ing. The farmers in every sec
tion of the county have splendid
crops, and when good crops are
produced they spend money. All
merchants report their sales very
much better than the same time
last year. They have laid in a
fine lot of all kinds of merchan-
disc, and are ready for all com
ers.
Now the very best way to get
your goods before the buying
public is to advertise. There
are many different ways to adj
vertise, but the best way is to
place your ads in a newspaper
having the largest circulation in
the town or communltyyou want
to reach. Now if you are a

WHEN WE STAND UPRIGHT.

Special Complex Mechanism Enn-
bles Us to DO 1t.
We are so accustomed to standing
upright as natural attitude that few
of us think what a special complex
mechanism Is required for this pur-
pose. \ moments consideration will
show that the ordinary explanation OF
the erect position 0he center of gravi-
ty to be directly above the feeD is in
sufficient When man Is suddenly
shot, whether from the front or behind,
he drops on his face, for the truth Is
that there is much more weight in the
front Of the spinal column than be-
hind It,
The fact is that when we are stand
ing a large number of powerful mus
cles Cboth front and back are stimuli
taneously at work, the effects of their
action being to neutralize each other
Thus the legs would fall forward were
it not that they are kept vertical on
the feet by the strong tendon (the
"Achilles') at the back of the heel.
At the same time the muscles of the

taking sitting position, and the mus
cles of the back are pulled tense so that
the trunk does not stoop forward. The
head is prevented from dropping on the
chest by the llgaments in the nape Of
the neck.
That the upright Is not its normal
position is easily shown by the fact
that man mods as he Is falling asleep,
for as soon as the controlling nervous
force Is deadcned the head drops for
ward by its own weight. only to be
pulled back into position again with
jerk when the brain becomes sud
denly aware of an unusual attitude.
