COLOR BLINDNESS
RARER IN WOMEN

Most women have the impression
that they have a better eye for color
as they call it, than their male rela'
tives, says the Strand Magazine. There
is a foundation in fact for this, as the
percentage of color blind women is
very much smaller than of men. Men
seem to vary very much more than
women. Whilst red green blindness
which is common among men, is cam
parativeiy rare in women, the slightei
varieties are quite common.
1t is obvious that II a woman car

Many Of the curious combination
which we see may be due, not to baS
taste, but to color blindness. A wei
known anthoress could not distinguish
between the color of the leaves in DC

when they were yellow green ant

EASY AND COMPLETE

"Our little daughter, when three
months old, began TO break out on the
head and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good. They said she had eczema. Her
eyes became crossed from the disease
and her scalp was q solid scale all over.
The burning and itching was 30 severe
that she could not rest, day or night.
we read an advertisement Of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. We at once got q cake
Of Cuticura Soap, box CT Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle Of Cuticura Resolv-
ent and followed directions carefully.
After the first dose Of the Cuticura Re
solvent, we used the Cuticura Soap freely
and applied the Cuticurn Ointment.
Then she began to improve rapidly and
In two weeks the scale came of her head
and new hair began to grow. In very
short time she was well. Her eyes were
perfectly straight when she recovered
and have been go ever since. She Is now
sixteen years Of age and is picture Of
health. We know the Cuticura Rene
dies cured her and have used them in
our family ever since.
I'VE used the Cuticura Remedies
about five weeks, regularly, and then
we could not tell she had been affected
with any disease. She suffered with
burning and itching and hard, scaly,

and in places on her body. We used iO
