Blood Temperature of Athletics.

Prof. Flack of the London College
hospital records some curious observa-
tons on the blood temperature of run
ners. The normal blood temperature in
man is about 9S.11 degrees Fahrenheit.
a young man, after run of 200 yards,
showed a temperature of 100.T6 degrees;
another temperature of 100.94 degrees;
third a temperature of 1922 degrees,
after a run of half male. A mile run
produced an internal temperature of
1923 degrees with one athlete and 1o3, 6
degrees with another. After three
mile run one young man had tempera-
ture of 105 degrees. But this runners
normal blood temperature was 101 de

when my little boy was six weeks
old an eruption broke out on his face.
/ took him to a doctor, but his face
kept on getting worse until it got SO
bad that no one could look at him.
His whole face was one crust and must
have been very painful. He scratched
day and night until his face was raw.
Then / took him to all the best special
lists in skin diseases, but they could net
do much for him. The eczema got on
his arms and legs and we could not
get a nights sleep in months. I got
a set of Cuticura Remedies and he felt
relieved the drst time used them.
gave the Cuticura Remedies good
trial and gradually the eczema healed
all up. He is now seven years old
