line is marked by an air of simplicity
and good taste combined, which is
rapidly winning favor In addition to
his business Mr. Platt has a half in
terest in about 300 acres of farm and
orchard land, few miles from Cald-
well, which gives excellent promise of
becoming valuable and gilt-edged in

Since Mr.. Platt has been interested
in this store he has doubled its stock
and trade. A decided accession to
our social and business life was the
coming of Mr.. Platt to Caldwell, a
man and a merchant who is all wool
and full measure.

SKIN ROUGH AS BARK.
Baby Boy Had Intense Itching Humor
Scratched Till Blood Ran.
Found a Cure in cutioura.

"Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with rash. After he suffered with
the trouble several weeks l took him
to the doctor but it got worse. The
rash ran together and made large
blisters. The little fellow didn't want
to do anything but scratch and we had
to wrap his hands up to keep him
from tearing the flesh open till the
blood would run. The itching was in
tense. The skin on his back became
hard and rough like the bark of a
tree. He suffered intensely for about
three months. But found a remedy
in Cuticura Soap and Cuticura ONT
ment. The result was almost mag
zeal. That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slight
est symptom of it since he was cured.

these in any good drug store and cas-
