BABY GIRL CRIED
 AND SCRATCH
All the Time-Torturing Eczema
 Covered Her Body-Could Not SIeep-Doctor Said Sores Would
 Last for Years-Skin Now Clear.
CURED IN THREE MONTHS
 BY CUTICURA REMEDIES

1T take great pleasure in telling you what great help it was for me to use Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for my baby niece. She was suffering from that terrible torture, eczema. It was all over her body but the worst was on her face and hands. Her hands were so bad that she could not hold anything. She cried and scratched all the time and could not sleep night or day from the scratching. I had her under the doc tors care for year and a half and he seemed to do her no good l took her to the best doctor in the city and he said that she would have the sores until she was six years old. But if l had de- pended on the doctor my baby would have lost her mind and died from the want of aid.
 "I used all the remedies that every body told me about and l tortured the child almost to death. Then I saw in the paper how Cuticura was the thing for irritating skin. I bathed her with warm water and Cuticura Soap and used the Cuticura Ointment. She was cured in three months. Now her skin is as clear and smooth as it could be. shall recommend the use of Cuticura wherever I see the skin in bed condition. Alice l.. Dowell, 4769 Easton Ave-, St. Louis, Mo-, May and 20, 1907.'

Selma, March 1S.-(Special )-The ques- tion of the shutting down of the South ern railway shops in this city was con sidered by the board of directors of the Commercial and Industrial association at a called meeting this morning. Mayor Atkins at the request of some of the former employees of the shops wrote a letter to the secretary of the association requesting some action. This letter was up for action, but it was decided that nothing in addition to the formal protest that had been sent by the officers of the association a few days ago could be done.
