AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years ago, some
form Of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was slight itching but
1t grew steadily worse until, when I
combed my hair, the scalp became
raw and the ends OF the comb-teeth
would be wet with blood. Most of the
time there was an intolerable itching,
in painful, burning way, very much
as bad, raw burn, II deep, will itch
and smart when first beginning to
heal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. My hair was long and tan
gled terribly because OF the blood and
scabs. This continued growing worse
and over half my hair fell out. WAS
in despair, really afraid of becoming
totally bald
Sometimes the pain was 30 great
that, when partially awake, l would
scratch the worst places SO that my
f1nger-tips would be bloody. I could
not sleep we'll and. after being asleep
short time, that awful singing pain
would commence and then l would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said It must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
a toilet soap before. now decided to
order a set OF the Cuticura Remedies
-Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.
l used them according to directions
for perhaps six weeks, then left off.
as the disease seemed to be eradi.
Gated, but toward spring, eighteen
months ago, there was slight re-
turn Of the scalp humor. COM
menced the Cuticura treatment al
once, so had very little trouble. On
my scalp l used about one half cake
Of Cuticura Soap and half box OF
Cuticura Ointment in all. The first
time l took six or seven bottles of Gu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles-neither an expensive or tie.
dious treatment Since then l have
had no scalp trouble OF any kind
Standing up, with my hair unbound, II
comes TO my knees and had 1t not been
for Cuticura l should doubtless be
wholly bald
This is voluntary, unsolicited tes,
timonial and take pleasure in writing

NEW NOSE MADE FOR WOMAN

A woman recently left the London
hospital with new nose made from
6 flap of skin taken from her own
forehead. The operation was rendered
necessary on account of an ulcer of
years growth, which had gradually
eaten away all the tissues OF the nose.
A racquet-shaped flap of skin about
two inches in length and an inch and
q quarter wide was cut, extending up
wards, from the bridge of the nose,
the beginning of the handle" Of the
racquet being the only point Of at
tachment The skin was very care
fully detached from the underlying
bone, and, being swung round with its
attachment at the base Of the nose,
was made to cover the previously de-
nuded nose area. The new nose was
stitched into place at the sides, open
tngs being left for the womans nos
trils The denuded space on the fore
head was then covered in with skin
gratis. The patient, woman of fifty
years, who was only three weeks in
the hospital, left well pleased with
her artificial features.
