Eczema is not blood disease

be treated by external means.

more remarkable cures of this
and other skin diseases than any
remedy known. 1t is applied di-

Isee what's going ON.

Capt. Cook first discovered the
kangaroo in 1870, and gave it the
name by which it is known all
over the world. There are neither
deer nor antelopes in Australia,
and the kangaroos take the places
of those timid animals, for the
kangaroo is even tanner than the
deer, but if any human being or
animal is after him he can get
away even quicker than a deer.
The tail of the kangaroo is
rigid, and it is a funny sight to
see him sit erect ON tripod
formed by the tail and the two
| hind legs. This seems his favor
! lite mode of resting. Ordinarily
the distance of each leap made by
| the kangaroo exceeds it's total
length, but when pursued and go
| ing at full speed, each leap may
be four times it's length. These
animals are often hunted in the
open glades, plains and forests,
where they live, and the gentlest
of them will become enraged when
dog overtakes him. Then the
kangaroo defends itself by land
ing a vicious kick with one of its
hind feet, which has powerful
claw on it's fourth toe. This claw
will cut dog like a sword, and
the average hound is usually dis
patched at one blow.
Kangaroos make good play
mates, and Australian boys and
girls often have them as pets on
their premises. They are gentle,
kind and inoffensive, and unless
abused they will do no harm to
any living thing.
