BABY WASTED TO SKELETON.
Face and Body-Tore at Flesh
Cured by Cuticura.

my little son, when about a year
and a half old began to have sores
come out on his face. They began to
come on his arms, then on other parts
of his body, and then one came on his
chest, worse than the others. At the
end of about a year and a half of suf-
fering he grew so bad / had to tie his
hands in cloths at night to keep him
from scratching the sores and tearing
the flesh. He got to be a mere skele-
ton and was hardly able to walk. I
sent to the drug store and got a cake
of Cuticura Soap and a box of Cuticura
Ointment, aid at the end of about two
months the sores were all well. He
has never had any sores of any kind
since, and only for the Cuticura Rem
edies my precious child would have
died from these terrible sores. | used
only one cake of Soap and about three
boxes of Ointment. Mrs. Egbert Shell

The Best Time

To get rid Of Objectionable trees
or shrubs that persistently come up
in the fence corners and out-of-the-
way places, says N. A. H~orticultur-
list, cut them off close to the ground
just after the leaves have expanded
in the spring. This is the best time
of the year to do it. The stock of
sap which has been stored up / ii the
roots during the winter has been
nearly exhausted, and the new
leaves have not begun to make more.
Hence, cutting off at that time is
practically a death blow. If a few
shoots should appear they will only
be weak, and II cut off when small
the work is done. Try this for the
poison ivy and other nuisances.

The Land Made Famous by PhiIpot&s'
Novels.

Philpotts has made us familiar with
romantic Devonshire, in his fascinating
novels, THE River" Children of the
Mist" etc. The characters are very
human; the people there drink coffee
with the same results as elsewhere. A
writer at Rock House, Orchard Hill,
Bideford, North Devon, states:
For 80 years / drank coffee for
breakfast and dinner but some S years
ago | found that 1t was producing indi-
gestion and heartburn, and was max
ing me restless at night. These symp-
toms were followed by brain flag and
a sluggish mental condition.
when / realized this, / made UP my
mind to quit drinking coffee and
having read of Postum, l concluded to
try it. had 1t carefully made, accord
ing to directions, and found to my
agreeable surprise at the end of a
week, that I no longer suffered from
either indigestion, heartburn, or brain
flag, and that I could drink 1t at night
and secure restful and refreshing
sleep.
Since that time we have entirely
discontinued the use of the old kind Of
coffee, growing fonder and fonder of
Postum as time goes on. MY digestive
organs certainly do their work much
better now than before. a result due
to Postum Food Coffee, I am satisfied.
AS table beverage we find TOR all
the members Of my family use it) that
when properly made 1t is most refresh
ing and agreeable, Of delicious flavor
and aroma. Vigilance is, however,
necessary to secur this, for unless the
servants are watched they are likely
TO neglect the thorough boiling which

goodness from the cereal. Name given

Town Belle Criticised.

A town belle got off the train at a
small town between Atchison and To.
peka last night, says Ed Howe. She
shook hands with her left hand, wore
a larger hat than the girls who met
her, wore pretty loud clothes, chewed
gum and when she hit the cinder plat
form of her home town a lot of people
grinned at her and said: Hello,
there!" This town belle was not bad
looking, but she couldn't keep her
mouth closed ever when she was not
talking.-Kansas City Journal.

the National Annuity Association,
writes:
"My health was excellent until about
a year ago, when l had a complete COL
lapse from OVERRIDING socially, not get

sary to use so much starch that the

Maine Woman Has Pet Deer.

Mrs. Nellie Smith, Of Sebec, Me-,
has a tame deer which is nearly two
years old now, but which she has
raised like a cosset lamb, feeding 1t
from a bottle at first and making a
great pet of it. 1t was given to her
by a %lumberman, who overlook it in
the deep snow and caught it in his
arms when 1t was no larger than a
cat, except for Its legs. 1t has always
been perfectly tame and domesticated,
eve having known anything of the
wild life Of its kind, but runs about
the premises unr~estrained, having its
place in the stable on cold nights.
The deer are numerou around Sebec,
and 1t is a question whether, as Mrs.
Smiths pet grows older, it will not
answer to the ''call Of the Wild and
join Its comrades In the forest.
