Oriqin of Gloves.

II is not known when gloves were
first invented. but they are very an
cient, says the Washington Herald.
The first clear account Of them comes
from Xenophon, where the writer
speaks Of the Persians wearing them
TO protect their hands from cold.
Homer describes Lacrtes working in
his garden with gloves to protect his
hands from thorns, and Narro men
tions the wearing Of gloves by the Ro-
mans. Gloves have long had a SYM
bolic meaning. I'm the eleventh cen
-tury came the custom of throwing
down a glove as a challenge, and
gloves were early used in church rites.
They were not worn by women until
after the Reformation. In preparing
the leather for gloves it had to be
''fulled' with a peculiar kind of clay
to lend it softness and hN~ibility, and
this was trade the secret of which
was guarded for many years. The
men who knew this trade were called
fullers, and thus the proper name of
Fuller came into existence.

"Bacteriolosists have shown us that

single teaspoonful of milk generally
contains from 100000 10 100000
germs. The number may even be
much larger than this.
In the removal of cream from the
milk the germs are taken with il, and
in the process of churning the germs
are collected with the fat so in the

large part of the germs contained in
the milk from which the butter is de-
rived.

ITCHING HUM0R ON BOY.

Cured In 4 Days by CutiCura.

Zone day we noticed that our little boy
was all broken out with itching sores. We
first noticed II on his little hands. His
hands were not as bad then, and we didn't
think anything serious would result. But
the next day we heard Of the Cuticura
Remedies beng so good for itching sores.
By this time the disease had spread all
over his body. and his hands were nothing
but a solid mass Of this itching disease. I
purchased a box of Cuticura Soap and one
box Of Cuticurs Ointment. and that night
I took the Cuticura Soap and lukewsrm
water and washed him well. Then ] dried
him and took the CutIcurs Ointment and
