With Irritating Skin Humor-WhoIe
Body Affected Scalp ltched All
the Time and Hair Began to Fall
0ut-WonderfuI Result From
APPLICATION OF
CUTICURA REMEDIES

81 am never without Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment since l tried
them last summer. About the latter
part of July my whole body began to
itch. 1 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 l did, and the first appli-
cation helped me wonderfully. For
about four weeks l would take hot
bath every night and then apply the
Cuticura Ointment to my whole body;
and kept getting better, and by the
time l used four boxes of Cuticura was
entirely cured, and my hair stopped
falling out, but | continue to use the
Cuticurs on my scalp. It keeps all dan
druff out and scalp is always clean. l
always use Cuticura Ointment on my
face after shaving, and have found
nothing to equal it. l will never be
without it." d. q. Blankenship,

CONVENTION CAPTURED

business was presented by C. C. Whitson
of Talladega.
This report recommended that the tenn
porary organization be made permanent;
that the rules of the last house be adopt-
ed except that a motion to postpone
should not take precedence of motion
to lay on the table; that the chair should
appoint the committee; that all resou-
tons, platforms, etc. should go to the
committee on resolutions without being
read.
On order of business. the committee re-
ported the following order: Motion of
chief Justice of the supreme court; noini-
nation of two associate justices; election
of chairman of the state COMMITTEES;
election by the convention of forty-five
members of the executive committee, four
from each district and nine from the state
at large; report from the committee and
resolutions; adjournment
Reported Agreement.
In making a motion, Mr. Whltson said
that 1t had been agreed that while the
members OF the executive committee We're
TO be elected by the convention, they had
been assured that those members sug-
gested by the districts would be ratified by
the convention. Almost Immediately Frank
S. White of Birmingham made the state
ment that there was some misunderstand-
ing and that he did not know of this
agreement. He therefore moved that the
report of the committee be re-referred for
additional investigation.
The convention in large measure cried
out mol Nor while still larger num-
bers cried Yes, Yesr' In a moment the
whole crowd was in confusion, men were
standing on their feet whooping and hol-
lowing, and it looked very much like there
was going to be a general row. However.
Mr.. Jeffries of the Dallas delegation got
the floor and insisted that the agreement
referred to by Mr. Whitson had been en-
tered into In good faith.
Mr.. Wlhitson made the point of order
that Mr.. Jeffries was out OF order in
that what took place in the committee
room was not for discussion before the
convention. Mr. Jeffries vigorously in
sisted that he was not out of order, and
that he had a right to state the matter
from a standpoint of personal privilege,
and Mr.. Jeffries was forced to retire On
suggestions from the audience that such
