BABY TORTURED BY ITCHING.
Cry Until Tired Out-Speedy
Cure by Cuticura.

MY baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face and
feet. Her feet seemed to irritate her
most, especially nights. They would
cause her to be broken in her rest, and
sometimes she would cry until she was
tired out l had heard Of so many
cures by the Cuticura Remedies that
| thought l would give them a trial.
The Improvement was noticeable In a
few hours, and before | had used one
box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet
were well and have never troubled her
since l also used It to remove what
is known as cradle cap from her
head, and it worked like charm, as II
cleansed and healed the scalp at the
same time. Mrs. Hattie Currier

FULLY UP WITH THE TIMES.
Oklahoma City Surprised Narrow
Minded New Yorker.

Oklahoma amazes an easterner. The
wide, asphalted streets, the plate glass
fronts of department stores, the clean
sidewalks, the well-dressed, unhurried
shoppers, the finish, the metropolitan
air you find in Oklahoma City, for ex-
ample, seem marvels to find in a ter
ritory only II years old. But do not
say so.
A New Yorker who went there on
business complained that fate was
thrusting him into wilderness, and
his Oklahoma associates could not re-
assure him. But coming down to
breakfast the first morning, at his
hotel in Oklahoma City, he stared
around in wonder as he entered the
dining-room.

dentially, Il even found a porcelain
bathtub in my room"

II Should Be Without Sham Elegance

There are cottages and cottages. Any
modest, unpretentious house designed
on strictly economical lines may be
fitly called cottage. and it Is more
satisfactory to regard ones own SIM
pie little abode as a we'll built, commo-
dious cottage than as small house Of
comparatively cheap construction and
cramped dimensions. It Is when given
to the big staggering seaside houses Of
the rich that the term ''cottage" be-
comes a misnomer and an affectation.
To the man of moderate means the
very idea of building cottage rather
than house carries with 1t sense OF
making home within his means free
from vain striving for sham elegance
and elaboration. The cottage which
apes the mansion Is as absurd as the
affected and exaggerated dignity OF the
pompous and understood individual
who seeks to create an impression out
Of all proportion to his real Importance.
Since simplicity is one Of the main at
