IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA.
Whole Body Mass Of Raw, Bleeding,
Torturins Humor Hoped Death
Would End Fearful Suffering.
In Despair; Cured by cuticura.

Words cannot describe the terrible
eczema suffered with. It broke out
on my head and kept spreading until
1t covered my whole body. I
was almost solid mass Of sores from
head to foot. looked more like a
piece OF raw beef than a human be.
ing. 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 I
was afraid they would break off.
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. My family doctor did all he
could. but / got worse and worse. NV
condition was awful. l did not think
L could live. and wanted death to
come and end my frightful surrerings.
In this condition my mother.in.law
begged me to try the Cuticura Rem
ed!es. said I would, but had no hope
Of recovery. But oh, what blessed re-
Hei experienced after applying Cuti-
cura Ointment. 1t cooled the bleeding
and itchins-flesh and brought me the
first real sleep I had had in weeks. It
was as grateful as ice to a burning
tongue. l would bathe with warm
water and Cuticura Soap, then apply
the Ointment freely. also took Cuti.
cura Reso!vent for the blood. In a
short time the sores stopped running,
the flesh began to heal, and knew |
was to get well again. Then the hair
on my head began to grow, and in a
short time l was completely cured.
1 wish could tell everybody who has
eczema to use Cuticura. Mrs. VIM.

A Simple Guest Room.

The very simplest guest room that
any one could imagine, The floor had
on 1t gray rag carpet. The walls
were covered with a plain gray paper,
and black moulding joined them to
the ceiling. The narrow, old-fashioned
woodwork of window and door sils
made streaks of black, in keeping
with the molding above. The hang.
ings were gray Japanese crepe.
Many tones of quiet grays," as said
the poet; but they served to throw
into relief odd bits of blue and yellow
Moorish pottery and row of blue
books. The books were the point OF
the whole gray scheme Of things, for
the hostess had covered them all in
blue holland linen and had titled the
backs on small yellow Dasters.

BAR PINS STILL ARE POPULAR.
Dress Accessory Of Which Seemingly
There Cannot Be Too Many.

There is no dimlnution in the popu.
larity OF the bar pin. II is used for
collars. for the stock and for jabots.
Every girl needs as many as she can
get She wants them in sets Of col
ored stones TO match the color scheme
OF her various costumes, and she wants
them in different sizes for different
uses.
As far as the fashions go. she can.
not have too many. Therefore. the
manufacturers are bringing them out
anew IN all kinds of lovely shapes and
settings.
The horseshoe has been run to the
ground and few OF the new ones are in
this shape. Lovely as the bowknot
was It did not become widely popular
in seml.precious stones. The straight
bar has always been an excellent in.
vestment. especially in three sizes.
The new bar pin used to catch the
lower edges OF the turnover collar and
the jabot under It is in the shape of a
now moon. The crescent is slight in
its curves. it is not wide even at the
center. its ends are sharp.

INDIANS FAIL IN BIG LEAGUES
Chief Bender Of Philadelphia Athletics
Only Exception to Rule.

For some reason or other Indian
ball players do not last long as big
leaguers. Chief Bender Is about the
only exception to the rule.

few short weeks, by his wonderful
all.around work. he was regarded as
the baseball sensation of the year
Inability to stand prosperity and love
for firewater brought ruin to the Pc.
nobscot Indian. SoX slowly drifted
backwards until now he has not the
ability to retain a position In the
Maine State league.
Frank Jude, who jumped into the
limelight at Toledo and was the SEN
satiQn of the American association
for time. is now in the bush league
class. and will probably never again
play in even n class a organization
Jude was sold to Cincinnati. but just
as soon as he struck the big league
he seemed to forget all he ever knew.
He was dropped and since then has
changed clubs five or six times, hav-
ing played engagements in both the
Ohio State and o. G. p. leagues.
Jude wasn't very strong on the fire
water, but he certainly did like to
eat, and once while Ed Grillo had
charge of the team Jude put away
such big meal one evening that in.
digestion kept him from playing for
three days.

To Protect the Finoers.

Pretty nearly everybody is making
or learning to make Irish crochet lace,
so that any information on this inter.
esting subject is usually received with
joy.
The inexperienced finds that the
sharp end of the crochet needle pricks
their fingers and that they, for this
reason. cannot keep up the work very
long at time. The best way to over.
come this difficulty is to wear a tiny
piece of courtplaster over the tip OF
the finger where the needle touches.
1t will not interfere with the guidance
Of the needle, as a thimble might do.
but It will prevent the finger from be.
coming sore and will protect Il from
the possibility Of callousness.
