Owes Recovery TO Cuticura.

t'My son Clyde was almost com
pletely covered with eczema. Physi-
clans treated him for nearly q year
without helping him any. His head.
face, and neck were covered with large
scahs which he would rub until they
fell on. Then blood and matter would
run out and that would be worse.
Friends coming to see him said that IL
he got well he would be disfigured for
life. When 1t seemed as II he could
possibly stand it no longer. used
some Cuticura Soap, Cuticura ONT

Some people arc thin and alwaysr re-
main thin, from temperamental rea-
SONS. Probably in such cases nothing
ican be done TO change this personal
sPeculiarity.
But there are large number OF peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and f1eshy
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack In adipose tissue.
Adipose, tissue Ia chiefly composed OF
fat.
Fat Is derived from the oily constit-
uents of food.
The fat-making foods are called by
the psychologist, hydrocarbons. This
class OF foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division of the ALI
mentary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, ii, not
wholly, the work OF the pancreatic
Juice. This juice is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addi-
ton OF acid. A hyperacidity of the
digestive fluids Of the stomach passing
down into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gested' or emulsified, and the system Ii
deprived OF it's due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, hepatient grows
thin.

hyperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pan

A dose of Peruna before each mea

hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation OF the contents of thu

preserved In its normal state. 1t thel
only remains for the patient to eat
sufficient amount OF fat-forming foods
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.

No Soup, No Dinner, the Rule Laid
Down by Barney.

Six years ago, when the king visited
Dublin, some amusing incidents were
recorded due to the grotesQueness OF
some hotel walters apparently just
fresh from rural life.
One hotelkeeper told such newly
imported server" that he must al.
ways serve every one with soup at
dinner and be quite certain that he
had 1t.
Thereupon ensued the following
scene between visitor and the new
waiter.

Mrs. Wilson had young Japanese
servant who had a habit of trying
to conceal from his mistress any
breakage of dishes of which he
CHANGED to be guilty. The good lady
explained that it was wicked to de-

The boy promised to do as she adj

was entertaining some friends in the
