In the course of an after dinner
chat recorded in Sir Algernon Vests
"Recollections," the late Admiral Sir
Harry Keppe1. who served in the
navy under four sovereigns, said that
the blue collars worn by sailors had
their origin in the dressing OF the
pigtails-which Sir Harry recollected
being in use-when blue cloth was
put on the mems shoulders to keep
the grease off their jackets. The pig
tails disappeared, but the collars re-

Ch1ld q Mass OF Dreadful Sore, Itch
ing, Irritating Humor for Months
In Terrible Plight-Disease
Cured by Cuticura.
My six year old daughter had the dread
full disease called hives for two months.
She became afflicted by playing with chill
dren who had it. By scratching she caused
large sores which were irritating. Her
body was 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 tried several remedies but
without avail. Seeing the Cuticura Rene
dies advertised, thought I would try
them. gave her hot bath daily with
Cuticura Soap and anointed her body with
Cuticura Ointment. The first treatment
relieved the itching and in a short time the
disease disappeared. Mrs. G. L. Fridhoff
