lNT0LERABLE ITCHING.
Fearful Eczema All over 6aby's Faes
professional Treatment Failed.
A Perfect Cure by cutloura.

when my little girl was six months
old / noticed small red spots on her
right cheek. They grew so large that
| sent for the doctor but, instead Of
helping the eruption, his ointment
seemed to make 1t worse. Then 1
went to a second doctor who said It
was eczema, He also gave me an oint-
ment which did not help either. The
disease spread all over the face and
the eyes began to swell. The itching
grew intolerable and It was a terrible
sight to see, consulted doctors for
months, but they were unable to cure
the baby, paid out from 500 to $40
without relief. One evening began
to use the Cuticura Remedies. The
next morning the babys face was all
white instead OF red. ! continued until
the eczema entirely disappeared. Mrs.

FLOATING STORES.
Merchandise Steamers of the Muskoka
Lake Country In Ontario.

Merchandise Steamers of the Muskoka
Lake Country In Ontario.
Among the interesting features of
life IN the Muskoka lake country, In
Ontario, are the floating stores. A
good sized steam vessel fitted out with
every imaginable item Of merchandise
that might be required makes a tour
of an assigned chain Of lakes once
each week. On certain hour OF a
certain day the boat is expected at
the different resorts and summer
homes, and enough merchandise must
be bought at each to tide over until
the next trip of the floating store.
Upon stepping on board the store
boats, says a writer in Popular Me-
chanics, the purchaser approaches n
counter with scales and cash drawer,
as in any other kind Of store. Behind
the counter are shelves, on which are
displayed such articles as may tempt
the eye. Behind these shelves is the
entrance to the storeroom and hold, In
which more merchandise Is stored.
Each article has It's place, and the
storekeeper can find 1t in moment.
Sometimes isolated farms on the
lakes are not worth stopping at every
trip, so q flag is flown when stores are
desired. The store vessel drops an
Choir when the signal flag Is flown,
and some member of the family rows
out and makes the purchases.

many of us are struggling for third

rot. In little town in Iowa, in the

thing over $4,000 he spent in building
q home. 1t was finished within with
the finest polished woods. The founda-

Of French plate, and every detail was
carried out In the best manner. He
had grown to be an old man. He had
always lived in modest cottage Of
six rooms. This mansion had fifteen.
On one side there was q magnificent
stone arch over the paved drive that
led up to the house. He had just COM
pleted showing friend over the
place and reached this point when the
visitor exclaimed:
= "Wen, John, you ought to be happy.
This is magnificent home. Here is
everything one could wish for"
"Waal," replied the old man, who
was n cattle buyer, "a fellow always
wants something else."
"What on earth could you want?
was the query.

Engraved Gems Of the Aneients.

Engraved gems are among the most
interesting objects of art inherited by
us from the ancients. Though many
of the canoes and intaglios were en-
graved on precious stones over 1000
years ago, they are still as clear and
fine as If they were cut yesterday.
The designs engraved on these stones
indicate that the old Greeks and Ro-
mans regarded them as charms against
accident or misfortune. This super
stition generally took the form of a
fondness for representation of certain
animals. Sailors affected the dolphin
because 1t was believed to be the mari
ner's friend. Women, so far as fishes
were concerned, preferred the repre-
sentation of the prolific aringa of the
Adriatic, which was symbol OF fruit
fulness because Of the great number
of its eggs. The ant was worn as an
emblem of industry. By the frog was
indicated the idea of resurrection, be-
cause that interesting batrachian re-
news its youth each spring by she'd
ding its old skin.

THE TONGUE.
II Appears That This Organ Can Be
EIouuent Even When Silent.

From the observations made by a
physiognomist 1t appears that the
tongue when quite still can be as elo-
quent In giving its owner away as
when 1t is wagging sixteen to the
dozen. This is hard fact for silent
man to swallow-in silence. His only
remedy Is to keep well SO as to obviate
the necessary injunction of the doctor
to put his tongue out, for by this
thrust out sign the doctor shall know
him.
The tongue Of the talker when OBJ
truded inclines to the right side Of the
mouth, we are asked to believe, where
as the seldom used tongue gravitates
to the left side. Orators, preachers
and barristers are endowed with right
sided tongues. Verbally parsimonious
persons have left sided tongues.
Furthermore, "the tongue that
shoots out straight without turning or
wavering indicates a solid, reliable
man of affairs" Tongues that turn
up indicate impractical natures. A
downward, dropping tongue belongs
to person born to poverty and a
ready eye for the hopeless side of
things.
The cruel tongue fiattens and broad
ems when extended. The delicate
speaking organ with curled up edges is
the property of an imaginative and
artistic being. When the tongue is
sues forth as If gripped in a dental
wise 1t signifies love Of life more
than ordinary.
Finally we are warned that the in
dividual who thrusts forth his tongue
to its EXTREMIST verge is person to
whom no secret should ever be con-
fded, for he is an irresponsible chat
terer.--London Chronicle.

Man is in some sort slave to his
