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 1t 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
vel 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 s%eventy-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.

that grows in semi-arid regions. 1t is
very likely that the amelioration, of
climate which followed upon the close
of the glacial period produced condi-
lions to which the species could not
readily adapt itself.
1t is astonishing what small things
in nature are oftentimes destructive
of life. The cattle are driven off from
large areas in South Africa by the at
tacks of a little fly which swarms in
the region. Grizzly bears in Alaska
are often killed by mosquitoes. The
mosquito attacks the eye, which is
the weakest point, and the bear, in
attempting to kill the mosquito with
his paw, scratches his own eyes out
and becomes blind. Thus the devel-
opment and multiplication Of some in
significant enemies of the mammoth
as the climate grew warmer may have
been fatal to his existence.
There is, however, much evidence
that the mammoth became extinct in
many places because his instincts
ceased to be an unfailing guide amid
the changing conditions which fol-
lowed the close of the glacial period.
DR.. Robert Bell, from his wide expert
ence, has suggested a theory some
thing as follows. The mammoth was
in the habit of seeking shelter within
the forest line during winter, and with
the opening of spring migrating to the

DR.. Bell relates that on an island

deer persisted from starvation during
one storm when a heavy snowfall was
followed by rain which formed a

moss. The island was never re-
stocked afterward. Such may have
been the means by which large herds
of the mammoth were destroyed in

before him. They used to chant sacred

Children.

Listen to this opinion from David
Starr Jordan:
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. II
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 a save a child. If the great
army of philanthropists ever exter-
inmate sin and pestilence, ever work
out our races salvation, it will be be-
