TINY BABY'S PlTIFUL CASE

Our baby when two months old
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked just like a skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothes
on her. At first 1t seemed to be n few
mattered pimples. They would break
the skin and peel off leaving the un-
derneath skin red as though 1t were
scalds. Then a few more pimples
would appear and spread all over the
body. leaving the baby all raw without
skin from head to foot. On top Of her
head there appeared a heavy scab a
quarter of an inch thick. It was aw.
full to see so small a baby look as she
did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid
to put his hands to tho child. We
tried several doctors remedies but all
failed.
Then we decided to try Cuticura.
BY using the Cuticura Ointment we
softened the scab. and 1t came of. I'm.
der this, where the real matter was,
by washing with the Cuticura Soap
and applying the Cuticura Ointment,
a new skin 500 appeared. We also
gave baby four drops Of tho Cuticura
Resolvent three times daily. After
three days you could see the baby
gaining a little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
baby Is four months old. She Is a fine
picture of a fat little baby and all
is well. We only used one cake of Cuti-
cura Soap. two boxes Of Cuticura ONT
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent. If people would know what
Cuticura is there would be few suffer
ing with eczema. Mrs. Joseph Koss-

opened for traffic some time early in
November, but full month before
that artisans will be employed put
ting on those finishing touches by
which expensive buildings are made
conspicuous.
There will be three main tracks
and three sub-tracks running into
this building and these will be cox
cred the full length of the platforms
by umbrella sheds. The outside of
the building will be set off with a
gigantic marquis of structural steel,
forty-ave feet long and extending out
as far as the curbing. Above this will
be placed a clock three and one-half
feet across the dial.
When the building is finished, the
exterior will p esent an imposing
structure of Bedford stone, adorned
by it's long marquis and clock and
lemmed in by it's six tracks and UNI
brella sheds. The inside, however,
will show the real pains of the de-
signers and builders.
There will be a corridor and an
immense general waiting room. The
dimensions Of the latter will be rs
an EA Nd
