NO REST NIGHT OR DAY.
With Irritating Skin Aumor-hair Be-

suit from Cuticura Remedies.

about the latter part Of July my
whole body began to itch | did not
take much notice OF it at first. but 1t
began TO get worse all the time, and
then l began to get uneasy and tried
all kinds of baths and other remedies
that were recommended for skin hum
ors; but | became worse all the time.
My hair began to fall out and my
scalp itched all the time. Especially
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 l could not rest
night or day. A friend asked me
to try the Cuticura Remedies, and
did, and the first application helped
me wonderfully. For about four
weeks | would take hot bath every
night and then apply the Cuticura
Ointment to my whole body and I
kept getting better. and by the time
used four boxes of Cuticura I was
entirely cured, and my hair stopped
falling out. d. E. Blankenship. 319

The Prince of Courtiand turned an
angry eountenance upon his friend.
but the keen-witted Muscovite looked
SO kindly and yet so sadly upon him
that after a while the severity of his
face relaxed as it had been against
his will. and with a quick gesture he
added, Il believe you love me, Ivan,
though indeed your words are no bet
ter than red-hot pincers in my heart" :"
Love you. Lons?" cried Prince
Ivan. x love you better than any
brother have. though they will never
live to thwart me as yours thwarts
you-better even than my father. for
you do not keep me out of my inherit

Do You Want to Know

country in favor of MEDICINES OF KNOWN

This bold and out spoken movement on

OF the several ingredients which enter into
