Cured by cuticura for $1.50.

when my little boy was two and a
half months old he broke out on both
cheeks with eczema It was the itchy,
watery kind and we had to keep his
little hands wrapped up all the time,
and If he would happen to get them
uncovered he would claw his face till
the blood streamed down on his cloth
ing. We called in a physician at once,
but he gave an ointment which was so
severe that my babe would scream
when it was put on. We changed
doctors and medicine until we had
spent fifty dollars or more and baby
was getting worse. I was so worn out
watching and caring for him night and
day that almost felt sure the disease
was incurable. But finally reading Of
the good results of the Cuticura Rem
edies, determined to try them. I
can truthfully say I was more than
surprised, for bought only dollar

Now for Dash to South Pole.

England's pride, stirred to its
depths by the discovery OF the
North Pole by Americans, took
material form and within a few
hours after Captain Scott of the
discovery exposition announced
that he would find the South Pole
! if 5000, 900 be subscribed to equip
the expedition the money had been
found.
And while Captain Scott prepares
his men and his expedition, through
out all of England there is the graz
vest concern lest Charcot should ap-
pear from the South Pole regions
and claim the honor Of having been
the first white man there, forestall-
ing the English again.
The English did not take at all
kindly to the fact that Perry sent
Captain Bartlett back with a sup
porting party before the pole was
reached. Perry kept Bartlett, a
British subject, with him as the
last white man until he had exceed
ed all previous "farthest north"
records, and then ordered Bartlett
back.
The English papers declared they
accept this as no compliment, ,avow-
ing that England is not used to be-
ing second in the field of human
endeavor. They admit the fact
that between DR.. Cook and Com
mander Perry there can be no doubt
that the stars and stripes have been
nailed to the North Pole and they
asked anxiously this morning if the
French flag Of DR.. Charcot, the En-
glish jack or the American Stars
and Stripes, is first to be nailed to
the South Pole.
The answer was instantaneous.
In a few hours the necessary
5000, 600 was forthcoming.
Captain Scott will start in July
with two supply bases, one at Mae
urdo Sound and the other, if pos
sible in King Edward VII Land. |
He will attempt to reach the pole
by using ponies, motor sledges and
dogs. Lieutenant Shackleton, who |
holds the record of being the near
est to the South Pole, will not ac-
company him on this expedition,
but other noted explorers will 90.
