BABY's ECZEMA GREW WORSE.
Hospitals and Doctors Could Not Re-
lieve Him-But Cuticura Remedies
a Speedy, Permanent Cure.

Eczema appeared when our baby
was three months old. We applied to
several doctors and hospitals, each Of
which gave us something different
every time. but nothing brought relief.
At last, nj of our friends recommends
ed to us Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. A few days afterwards i'm
provement could be noted. Since then
we have used nothing but Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and now
the baby is six months old and is quite
cured. All that we used was one cake

Boston, and his trials are easily imagined
If the following story can be taken as an

ION a recent visit to Boston I met a chap
I used to know whose wife in addition to
being a tartar to poor hubby, has a mania
for moving. My poor friend, whom I may
call Brown, never knew from morning I'M
til night where he would next reside, as
the 'missis' would pack up and get out on
the slightest pretext. Before leaving Bos-
ton I went out to tell Brown goodbye, but
at his door 1 was greeted by the sight Of
a heavy moving van and two brawny
truckmen taking out the household effects.
When the last piece had been hustled
Brown came hunfbly down the stairs with
a suitcase in one hand and a bird cage in
the other.
"'Hello,' said I. 'where are you moving

The Evolution OF
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust
..s. is the natural outgrowth of tho
old.timc household remedies.
In the early history Of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD IT'S HOME.
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas, Bit
,srs. laxatiyes and tonics, were to be
found in almost every house, COM
rounded by the housewife, sometimes
ssist by the apothecary or the fam
NJ doctor. Such remedies as picra,
which was aloes and quassia, dis
solyed In apple brandy. Sometimes q
hon tonic, made of whiskcy, hops and
hitter banks. A score or more of pop
| MAR. homemade remedies were thus
compounded, the formulate for which
we're passed along from house to
house, sometimes written, sometimes
verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business is q
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old-time custom. In the begin
ming some enterprising doctor, inn
messed by the usefulness of one of
these home made remedies, would
tske 1t up. improve 1t in many ways,
manufacture 1t on a large scale, ad-
yertise 1t mainly through almanacs
for the home, and thus it would be-
come used over a large area. LAT
TERLY THE HOUSEHOLDREMEDY
BUSINESS TOOK A MORE EXACT
AND SCIENTIFIC FORM.
PeI1ina was originally one Of these
old.tlme remedies. 1t was used by
the Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, be-
fore II was offered to the public for
sale. DR.. Hartman, THE ORIGINAL
COMPOUNDER OF PERUNA, is of
Mennonite origin. First, he pre-
scribed it for his ncighbors and his
patients. The sale of it increased,
and at last he established a manufac-
tory and furnished il to the general
drug trade.
Peruna is useful in a great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs,
colds, sore throat, bronchitis and ca
tarrhal diseases generally. THOU

and its value in the treatment of these
