SAVED OLD LADY'S HAIR

My mother used to have a very bad
humor on her head which the doctors
called an eczema, and for it had two
different doctors. Her head was very
sore and her hair nearly all fell out
in spite of what they both did. One
day her niece came in and they were
speaking of how her hair was falling
out and the doctors did It no good.
She says, Aunt, why don't you try
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment?' Mother did and they helped
her. In six months time the itching,
burning and scaling of her head was
over and her hair began growing. To
day she feels much in debt to Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head Of hair she has for an old lady
of seVenty-four.
My own case was an eczema in my
feet. AS soon as the cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn and
then they would crack open and bleed.
Then l thought l would fee to my
mothers friends, Cuticura Soap and

There Is nothing in all the world
so important as children, nothing so
interesting. If you ever wish to go in
for some philanthropy, If you ever
wish to be Of any real use in the
world, do something for children X
you ever yearn to be truly wise, study
children. We can dress the sore,
bandage the wounded, imprison the
criminal, heal the sick and bury the
dead, but there is always a chance
that we can save a child. If the great

the success Of General Wood could possibly be

making. In this respect however,
the significant week in June at the
great military institution the Hudson is not SO
very different from the corresponding eliminating
interval of the academic year at other great seats
of learning in this country. To be sure the drills
ope1air eyolutions, dress parades and sham bat
ties do supply an element of the spectacular not
to e found In like degree anywhere else unless
perAaps It be at the United States Naval acad-
emf At Annapolis, but in so far as the graduation
exercises proper are concerned and the attendant
fafeWen balls, the program at the Point is not so
dfferent from that carried out at other big edu-
Hcatonal institutions at the close of the school
year
Yet for all this sameness, IN some respects
there is enough of novelty In the climax at West
Point to draw visitors by the thousand from all
sections of the country. Nor are the spectators
by any limited to the relatives and close
friends of the young who are to receive,
along with their diplomas commissions as second
1ieutenants in the regular army. That would be
understandable enough-such gathering Of inter
ested kith and kin But aside from the onlook-
ers whose interest is stimulated by blood ties,
there is a vast assembage the members of which
feel no interest In either graduates under

thither by the prospect Of show" literally

magnets which draw to West Point the vast
throng of sightseers and pleasure seekers. In
cidentally it may be noted that it is an excellent
opportunity to see celebrities. The president of

other prominent official. presents the diplomas to
the graduates, and high officials of the army are

the quota Of cadets left behind to finish their un-
