SAVED BABY
LYONS LIFE
Untold Suffering and Constant
Misery-Awful Sight From that
Dreadful Complaint, InfantiIe E.
zema Commenced at Top of his
Head and Covered Entire Body.
MOTHER PRAISES
CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Our 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
a full set of the Cuticura Remedies and
applied as per directions, and he 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 the
exception of a rough skin, which is
gradually disappearing, and eventually
viii 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 beheld,
prior to the treatment of the Cuticura
Remedies. Mrs. Maebelle Lyon, 1926

Smoking Women.

Smoking among women In Eng
land is said to be increasing at ali
alarming rate. 1t is authoritative
ly stated that some cf the rail
roads, yielding to a popular de-
mand, now provide smoking cars
for women just as for men. Of
course, no one will deny that
women have as much right, from
a moral standpoint, to smoke as
men, yet there is an abholent and
an irreconcilable incongruity
abont seeing q sweet, cultured and
beautiful young lady's fingers
stalued with nicotine or having
the odor of tobacco about her per-
sou. Nobody expects any more of
ulen who are made ofthe common
est kind of clay but they do ex-
pect more If ladies who are crea-
ted but "little lower than the
angels" The girl who, with cigar
in hand, puffs the smoke from her
ruby lips and has it curling grace
fully about her face may be ever
so beautiful but she is as rose
that has lost lis perfume.
