"I was in the smok- ing department with some other tray cling men when one of them went out into the coach and came back and said: There is woman sick unto death in the car. I at once got up and went out, found her very i'll with cramp collie; her hands and arms were drawn up so you could not straighten them, and with a death-.ike look on her face. Two or three ladies were working with her and giving her whis- key, I went to my suit case and got my bottle of Chamberlain's Collie.

THOUSANDS OF TREES
Eucalyptus for Planting on Lands Near BrawIey--Muoh Fall Tree
 Setting Is Planned

That Imperial Valley, from the nOrthernmOst canals to the internat- iOnal border, is to become a tree-belted land seems a certainty, in view of the tree-planting activities of the past year and the plans for an extension of this work during the ensuing fall and winter.
 The remarkable success attained in the growing of several varieties of the eucalyptus has caused this tree to be taken up as the standard for general purposes in Imperial Valley. Certainly a tree that will attain a growth of from fifteen to twenty-five feet in from fifteen to eighteen months and which not only produces constant foliage, but grows a hard wood equal to ninety per cent the strengthN of second-growth hickory, has strong points to commend itself to desert farmers.
 Probably the largest foresting pro- iect in the valley to be undertaken this fall will be in the vicinity of Brawley, where some of the most re- markable eucalyptus growths have been made. It is now certain that at least 200 acres will be planted in bodies of 100 acres each, and that the smaller individual plantings will be made.
 County Clerk D. s. Elder and R. s. Wills have jointly purchased from the Eucalyptus Timber Company of Los Angeles 10000 trees of the rostrata and sugar gum varieties, for planting this fall. Mir. Elder will plant 100 acres of his ranch in District No. 8, west of New River, and near Brawley, to these trees, and MT. Wills will plant 100 acres of his ranch, directly east of Brawley, to these two var ieties.
 This will make three notable euca- lyptus groves in that immediate vi- cinity, as the Louis Lee grove just north of the townsite has attracted much attention for the past year.
 CIV. Nichols expects to make ex- tensive planting on his Silsbee ranch, while U. s. Handley will also set out many hundreds of trees. The c. A. Parkyns ranch, near Holtville, is also to be the location of an extensive grove.

CUTICURA REMEDIES

when my son was only about q year
old eczema began to break out on his
face. 1t kept getting worse and we
called In a doctor whose medicine only
seemed TO make it worse, until his head
and face were solid, raw sore. It was
awful. He suffered drcadfully, and
screamed until we thought he would 90
into commissions, II would itch and burn
30. We became 10 diseatisfled that we
called In another doctor. Ho pro-
scribed the Cuticura Remedies. The
baby commenced to get better right
away, although by this time the disease
had good start. I don't think we
used more than three bottles Of the
Cuticura Resolvcnt, together with the
Cuticure Soap and Cuticura Ointment.
It was perhaps several months before
al traces Of tho eczema were gone, the
last being behind the ears, but the
Cuticura Remedies cured him conf
plctely, and he had the prettiest hcad Ct
curly hair grow after his head COM
mencod to get better. He is now not
quite twenty-fcur, and he has been
cured permanently.
