CASE SEEMED HOPELESS
BUT CUTICURA CURED HER

Words cannot describe the terrible
eczema ! suffered with. 1t broke out
OF my head and kept spreading until it
covered my whole body. l was almost
g solid mass of sores from head to foot.
] looked more like piece of raw Geef
than human being. The pain and
agony ! endured seemed more than |
could bear. Blood and pus oozed from
the great sore on my scalp, from under
my finger nails and nearly all over my
body. My ears were so crusted and
swollen ! was afraid they would break
on Every hair in my head fell out.
] could not sit down, for my clothes
would stick to the raw and bleeding
flesh, making me cry out from the pain.
Ny family doctor did all he could, but
! got worse and worse My condition
was awful l did not think could live,
and wanted death to come and end my
frightful sufferings.
In this condition my mother-in-law
begged me to try the Cuticura Rem
edies. / said ] would, but had no hope
Of recovery. But oh, what blessed re-
lief ] experienced after applying Cuti-
cura Ointment. II cooled the bleeding
and itching flesh and brought me the

tongue. ! would battle with warm
water and CuticuIa Soap, then apply
the Ointment freely. I also took Cuti-
cura Resolvent for the blood. In a
shot time the sores stopped running,
the flesh began to heal, and l knew

on my head began to grow. and in a
short time ! was completely cured.

PLEA FOR A

I'm the Only Guilty One
Here" q Kansas Convict :.
Wrote Gov. Stubbs.

Topeka. Kan.-Governor Stubs re-
teived a peculiar letter recent
ly from a prisoner in the Kansas
~penitentiary. Usually the letters the
governor receives are that the prisoner
Is not guilty at all. or II guilty he did
self, or let his temper get away with
him. But there is one prisoner who
offered a different reason for the gov
ernor letting him out Of the prison.
Here is his letter:
Judging from what I have read and
from conversations held with prison.
srs in this p~enitentiary, I have arrived
at the conclusion that I am about the
only guilty scamp In his place. I cam

Every mar in the ~penitenttary who
believes himself wronged or innocent
Is convinced that he would be able to
do society much good II turned out by
the governor. But a long time 3 the
prisoners had q mistaken idea of tho
innocence or usefulness, SO II is seldom
that a governor pays much attention 10
this kind of letters. Somehow or other
It has become noised about that Cover
-lor Stubs would encourage frankness
in prisoners n that he expected at
least some evidence of reform to con-
vince him that some OF the criminals
were worthy Of executive clemency.
Action May Result in the Case.
The governor receives all sorts of
letters from prisoners, both in the
prison n in the reformatory, every
day. but this M received recently, was
the most novel one of which there Is
any record in the governors office. The
letter contains much other matter re-
ferring to this prisoners case and that
quoted vas only a part Of h letter.
The governor declined to give out the
name Of the prisoner. The prisoners
are allowed to write only a certain
number of letters each month. As they
can write only one letter to the gov
ernor each one tries to make his letter
as effective as possible and nearly each
n has his own ideas about what
would appeal most strongly to the gov
ernor. d
Governor Stubs is considerably in
terested In the man who wrote The let
ter and it is possible that some action
may be taken in regard to his case.
