CHILD HAD SIXTY B0ILS.
And Suffered Annually with a Red
 ScaId-Li.<e Humor on Her Head.
Troubles Cured by cuticura.

"When my little Vivian was about six months old ter head broke out in boils. She had about sixty in all and l used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment which cured her entirely. Some time later a humor broke out be- hind her ears and spread up on to her head until it was nearly half cov- cred. The humor looked like a scald, very red with sticky, clear fluid con- ing from it. This occurred every spring. I always used Cuticura Soap and Ointment which never failed to heal it up. The last time it broke out it became so bad that I was dis couraged. But l continued the use of Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resol- vent until she was well and has never been troubled in the last two years Mrs. M. A.

 Almost Any Mother.
 The mother of large family fell ill and died and the attending phy- sieian reported that she died of star vation. It was incredible, but he proved it: The woman had to get the dinner and then spend the next two hours in waiting on the family and getting the children to the table. It was never on record that she got all of them there at the same time and they came struggling in all the way from potatoes to pie. By the time she had wiped the last face, her own hunger had left her and she had no desire to eat. Chickens, the doctor said, come running at feed time, but children don't. A hen has better chance to eat than a mother.-Atchi- son Globe

So brimful was it of joy.

And his mother declared each day

And was turning her brown hair gray.

As trouble, trial, a grief,

And had only one regret in the world
