ten of Group is Of the catarrhal variety.

Nearly every case is of the catarrhal va

the first appearance of the catarrhal

Disease Cured by cuticura.

MY six year old daughter had the
dreadful disease called hives for two
months. She became affected by play
ing with children who had it. BY
scratching she caused large sores
which were irritating. Her body was
a complete sore but it was worse on
her arms and back. We employed a
physician who left medicine but it did
not help her and I tried several RENE
dies but without avail. Seeing the
Cuticura Remedies advertised, I
thought would try them. l gave her
hot bath daily with Cuticura Soap
and anointed her body with Cuticura
Ointment. The first treatment re-
lieved the itching and in a short time
the disease disappeared. Mrs. George

Piecina out the PRAYER.

OF curious prayers a writer says: 81
have heard layman utter this petition
during the prayer: %, Lord, be thou
with us in our upsittings an our down
risings-a variant of the text in the
psalms. Thou knowest my downsit-
tings and mine uprisings. A minister
occasionally introduced Latin SEN
tence into his prayer, and forthwith
proceeded to translate 1t. Another min
lister in his early days experienced con-
siderable difficulty with the long prayer
before the sermon. In nonconformist
churches this usually occupies quar-
ter of an hour, but long before this Pc
Rod had been reached he was wound
up. On one occasion, while in this di-
lemma, he startled his hearers with the
words: And now, o Lord, ! will re-
late unto thee a little anecdote!'

Sliahtly Mixed.

Little Oliver, six years old, had
learned the song in which is oft re-
peated the refrain GLORY, glory, hal
lelujah." and for some time he had
been singing 1t with great enthusiasm
and vigor. Finally he became silent,
and after brief period of cogitation
he said:
Mamma, what does 'hallelujah'
mean?"
AS simply as she could his mother
explained that it was a religious ex-
clamation meaning praise the Lord -
He seemed rather surprised at the
information, but his next question Of
fered ample explanation of why he
had thrown so much vigor into his
singing. IF that's what 1t MEANS" he
said. why do they throw corn and
have jack lanterns on hallelujah
night?"

PREVENTING PAINT rRousLEs.

It's easy enough TO recognize the
symptoms of poor paint, after 1t has
been on awhile--after its inherent
tendency to crack and peel and scale
and blister, etc, has developed into
trouble. You know these paint dis
eases usually indicate adulteration
or substitution i'm the paint materials.
And you know the only remedy is re-
painting.
A little knowledge OF paint and
painting requirements, and how to
made sure of the purity and quality
of materials, would prevent all trou.
Bile, and save the big extra expense OF
re-painting; just as q proper knowl-
edge of simple health-laws, and OBJ
servance of them, prevents sickness.
