Iowa: David H; Reeder, La
porte, Ind.-Dear. Doctor: Having
read many of your Club Notes in this
paper, wish to consult: with you in re-
gard to my daughters health. She is
greatly annoyed by an itching of the
scalp. Several times within two
years I have consulted our family
physician. He says he can see moth
ing to prescribe for, and sometimes
says he thinks she will outgrow It, and
again gives her some simple remedy,
which ,avails nothing This fall she
is worse than ever and is almost con-
stantly scratching her head She is

is a fine, healthy-looking girl.
Since she had Dutch measles seven
years ago, she has been troubled with
what we call salt rheum on the palms

affected part would swell, turn red,
and be covered with little watery PIN,

the swelling would go down, the color
disappear and the skin peel off. In q
few weeks the whole process would re,
peat itself. Our physician treated that
trouble and nearly cured it. Occasion.

not itch or annoy her.
We are farmers, and enjoy good
health. We seldom call a physician or
take medicine. Any suggestions you
may make, will be thankfully re.

ment. The latter would be designed
to remove from the system those poi,
sonous elements which cause the erup,
ton, itching, etc., to appear, while the
external treatment would remove all
the external trace of it. The former
should consist of the Schuessler tissue
elements in tablet form, properly Sc,

OF the herb remedy in liquid form
which l have often used myself and
recommended to others, with great sue

Nebraska.-David H. Reeder, La
porte, Ind.-Dear Doctor: We are sub
scribers Of this paper, and would like
to know what is the trouble with ou1
baby. He is six weeks old When
he was about two weeks old he be-
gan passing curds of undigested mill,
from his bowels and would scream
strain and draw up his feet with every
passage. We spoke to doctor about
it, and he advised giving him a few
doses of castor oil, which we did, and
it helped him for the time being, but
when we did not give it he became con
stlpated, and has hardly had a pas
sage since without the use of the
syringe or dose of castor oil. We
went to the doctor again, and he gave
some medicine and some more castor
oil, but cannot see that It has helped
him.
His passages have been quite green
containing mucous and curdled mill
every time. Sometimes after nursing

up wind and sometimes milk. He alst
passes off great deal of wind from
his bowels. AS the baby is getting tn,
breast, I have tried to eat nothina
which I thought would disagree with
him and with the exception of beins
slightly constipated, am in good healtt
have plenty of milk for him. \

Mrs. C. H.
In regard to the condition Of your
baby, the constipation is due to tn,
| character Of the food, and I am in
clined to think that the passing of un
| digested curds and some of the coli,
is due to overeating and feeding at i'm
proper intervals. For the constipation
would suggest that you procure ant
use for yourself the Compound Gen
tian sirup. It would be necessary TO-
you to begin it's use in very ligh
way, because it is glandular remedy
and affects the glands within a yer.
short time. The mammary glands il
| your system are at the present tim
the most active, and therefore the bah!
would receive the benefit of the her1
remedies very quickly. You would ais,
receive a portion of it yourself, blu
he would have the first effect
| l think that if you use the gential
strip it will not be necessary for 70,
to give the baby physic, but you shoult
continue the enema until the effect O
the herbs begins to occur. Temper
arily, you should give him little cat
nip or peppermint tea for the collie.
