CUTICURA CURED MOTHER AND BABY
Southern Woman Suffered With itching, Burning Rash-Drove Her Nearly Crazy-Her Baby Had
 Sore on Neck, and Two Other Babies Had Skin TroubIeS-CaIls
CUTICURA A STANDBY
 THAT NEVER FAILS HER

q just can't say enough for the Cuti- cura Remedies, l can't find words high enough to express my thanks to God for hearing of the wonderful remedies. My baby had a running sore on his neck and nothing that did for it took effect until l used Cuticura, My face was nearly full of letter or some similar skin disease It would itch and, after scratching, it burned so that l could hardly stand it. Two cakes of Cuti- cura Soap and box of Cuticura Oint- ment cured me. Two years after it broke out on my hands and wrist. ] cured it for a while, but it came again in the summer. Sometimes l would % nearly crazy for it itched so badly. I used ten dollars worth of so-called blood medicines which did no good at all, then went back to my old stand by, that had never failed me. One set of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent did the work. One set also cured my uncle's baby whose head was a cake of sores, and know of another woman's baby who was in the same fix and nothing else did any good. I speak a word of praise for Cuticura whenever l see a case that needs 1t. Mrs. Lillie Wilcher, TO Eleventh St., Chattanooga, Tenn, Feb. l6, l907."

The shopper who serves herself best
in this respect is the one who will be
the most merciful to the overworked
clerks and delivery horses. Early
shopping should indeed be carried on
to such an extent as to render the
buying at the eleventh hour light and
without heavy burdens to the toilers
This would be the ideal Christmas
buying, and every one who has pre-
pared a list of holiday presents can
assist in bringing about this ideal by
making all purchases this week.
The merchant and his workers

A HOLIDAY INNOVATION.


The Saturday Evening Post pub
fishes the following interesting and
valuable story:
"A travelling salesman had an only
son with whom he had been liberal in
the matter of spending money, and
rather thoughtless. The boy began de-
veloping extravagant habits. and had
no appreciation of the value of money.
So the father made it a rule that all
the spending money he got in future
must be earned. The boys mother
was made the employer, and a regular
schedule of prices for definite chores
was drawn up-two cents basket for
splitting kindling, five cents an hour
for hoeing garden, five cents a hun
dred for collecting potato bugs.
This reformed the boy in one way,
for it made him ambitious. He got
out of bed early in the morning to
earn money. There was always a big
pile of kindling on hand, and he kept
an eye open for odd jobs of all kinds.
But the reason he worked for
money was that he might buy more
or less useless things that he had
bought under the old arrangement. So
saving plan was added to the earn
ing plan.
THE boy was permitted to spend
one-quarter of all the money he made
in his own way, without supervision.
Another quarter went into small
home bank. to be deposited in a saw
ings account at interest. The remain
ing fifty per cent of his earnings was
kept back by his father. half to be
invested in books and half in tools
and toys.
Before anything was bought out of
this final fund, however father and
son had a conference and agreement
on articles to be purchased or books
selected. Thus the fund went chiefly
to the purchase of educational toys.
such as printing-press, a scroll-saw,
a camera. No anticipation of pay
ments was permitted, nor any trans
fer of money from one fund to another
to hurry the 'consummation of a pur-
chase. In that way the fact that there
was a surplus on hand did not kill
the incentive to work for an object"
1t is the special business of our saw
ings department to take care of saw
ings and earnings of this nature and
while being cared for they will be
earning interest at the rate of 4 per
cent per annum.
On making the first deposit of one
dollar we furnish you with a small
private bank to take home with you.

present for any member of the fam
lily that would be more useful and

Der of Commerce, Atlanta Chamber
of Commerce. Jacksonville Board of
Trade, respectively.
The purpose of this congress is to
present to the whole country and to
the world the South and its possibili-
ties for future development. In gen.
eral way our section is conceded to be
rich in national resources, yet how
rich few even of our own people fully
realize. Immense progress has been
made by the South within the past
decade in some industrial lines. In
the textile industry, for instance, the
South has now passed New England.
In iron. coal and forest productions
great progress has been made, and
the same is true of orchard produc-
tons and other branches of agricul-
ture. But as yet the vast resources
OF the South have been but barely
touched. AS twenty-five years ago
cotton seed were considered practic-
ally valueless, and they are now in
creasing in value at the rate of $780,
100000 a year, so there are hidden
and unregarded resources
which require only intelligent devel-
opment to become important factors
in adding TO the South's wealth. To
present this to the world. as well as
to impress it upon our own people, the
Southern Commercial Congress is to
be held
An idea of the scope of the presen-
tations that are to be made may be
gathered from the following program
of subjects:
/. Southern Health Conditions. Gil
