ITCHING T0RTURES
YIELDED TO CUTICURA

While / was doing missionary work
in the lower portion Of several cities I
found it necessary to know a little Of
the efficacy Of a few medicines and

edge Of Cuticura was shout ali / needed
Ore Of the very bad cases / had 70 deal
with was that Of young woman who
had come 10 Us not only broken in
spirit but IN 3 most awful condition
physically. Our doctor examined her
and told rs that she had scabies (Uhe
itch) incipient paresis, rheumatism,
etc, brought on from exposure and the
effects Of her ragged-edged. life. Her
poor body was a mass Of sores from
scratching and she was not able 70
retain solid food. We tried many things,
gOc1 tonic Wss prescribed and baths
With a rubbing Of lard and sulphur. We
worked hard FOR seven weeks and you
can imagine how discouraged We were
when. after al that time, we could see
SO little imp -OVement. One day I hap
pened to SOL a CuticUra advertisement
telling how a little baby had bee1
cured Of a had case Of skin eruption,
and although l had but ninety-seven
cents with mo, / bought q cake Of Cuti-
cura Soap and a bottle Of Cuticurs
Resolvent. When ] reached home I
was like a child with new toy, and We
batbed our patient well and gave her q
full dose Of the r esolvent. She slept
that night better than she had since
she had been with US and the next day
I located the price Of q box Of Cuticura
Ointment. I am not exaRgeTating
when l say that in exactly FIVE weeks
this young woman was able to look for
a position, being strong enough 20 work
and full Of ambition. In another
month she left the home, and now has
q good position in & nice family where
she is respected and is strong and well.

BUSINESS MEN DISCUSS
BETTER STORE LIGHTING

The regular business meeting of the
Florence Business Mems association
was held last night in the rooms Of
Secretary Unger and alth ough the
weather was not any too pleasant,
there was a very good attendance.
Several matters came up for consider
alton, among which was the better
lighting of the streets and stores. a
proposition made to the association
by Manager Lattimer of the Arkan-
sas Valley Electric company. Mr..
Lattimer's offer to the association
and to the business men who are not
members follows:

Gentlemen-Regarding the display
window lighting scheme we have
under consideration we herewith sub.
NIT the following plan:
Provided we eau get % customers
who will each use not less than on Q
unit. Each unit consists of two poke
bonnet refiectors. each containing two
lamps and provided also that these 25
customers Will contract to use these
special display lights for not less than
one year. We will make them the
rate of ~. 80 per month per unit
The customer to pay for the install
lation, wiring of the additional lines,
including the time switch. We figure
the cost Of installation about rs fol.
lows:

The customer to pay this charge
upon the completion Of the work, or
the first of the month following. and
we agree to rebate to him 30 cents
per month of this installation charge
Of the first "a months that he uses the
service. in other words we return to
him in monthly installments tI2 OF
this cost, so 1t really will cost very
small amount for each customer to
connect with this service.
II Is our idea to have special con 4.
tract form made for this class OF sery-
ice and confne it strictly to window
lighting.
We have assumed that 8 O clock
