ITCHING HUMOR
ON LITTLE BOY
His Hands were Solid Mass, and
Disease Spread All Over His Body
In Four Days the Child was
Entirely Cured-Mother Strongly
RECOMMENDS CUTICURA
SOAP AND OINTMENT

Zone day we noticed that our little
boy was all broken out with itching
sores. We first noticed it 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 being
80 good for itching sores, ETC., that 1
thought l would get them. BY this
time the disease had spread all over his
body, and his hands were nothing but
a solid mass Of this itching disease. /
went to the drug store and purchased
q box Of Cuticurs Soap and one box Of
Cuticura Ointment, and that night /
stripped my little boy and took the
Cutlcura Soap and lukewarm water and
washed him well. Then l dried him
with a soft bath towel, and took the
Cuticura Ointment and rubbed him
thoroughly with it. / did this every
evening before 1 put him to bed and in
three or four nights he was entirely
cured. You have my permission to
publish this because anybody who suf-
fered as my baby did ought to know Of
the Cuticura Remedies. / will surely
and gladly recommend the Cuticura
Remedies, for they are a godsend to all
suffering with skin diseases. Mrs. Frank

RURAL DELIVERY
AND THE ROADS
PosToFFlcE DEPARTMENT CON-
TlNuEs TO SHOW INCREASED
DEFICIENCIES ON THIS
ACCOUNT.

The reports of the postoffice depart,
ment continue to show large defer
ency each quarter. The rural free de-
livery system is mostly responsible for
this.
But to no feature of administration
is the government more thoroughly
committed than to this boon to the
farming communities. So popular has
the rural free delivery become that no
member of congress would think ot
trying to organize opposition TO it IN
order to curtaGl the outlay of the post
office department The indications all
point in the other direction. The sys-
tenn will be extended more and more
until it covers the whole country with
sufficient and increasingly frequent
service
This government work is proving to
be an effective agency in the agitation
for better country roads. IAe saving
to the farmer in the marketing of his
crops is urged as the most important
reason for better highways 1t has
not been easy to make tnis argument
convincing even when definite figures
have been given showing the economic
losses.
Uncle Sans big stick may prove a
more potent force An official an
nouncement has been sent to post
masters which proclaims that good
roads and rural free delivery have a
vital connection. If the farmers of a
given community appreciate the ser
vice of free delivery of mail they must
keep the roads in such condition that
the carrier may perform his work with
more ease.
Information is givn of a case at
Peru, Ind Last May the attention OF
the postoffice department was called
to the roads leading from that place.
The local postmaster took the matter
up and pressed it upon the officials
and the people. AS a result work was
begun upon seven of twelve roads.
They will be improved greatly before
the winter season sets in.
What is more encouraging in the
reports is that this work was under
taken in scientific manner, the de-
sire being to secure good grave1ed
roads The agitation for good roads
has been going on in farming COM
munities for many years. There has
been a response in some quarters thar
lis proved by splendid highways.
The edict of the postoffice autncri-
ties in connection with the rural free
