a call for more than the usual amount
of money on this account; but there
has been caution In the expenditures
and they have brought tangible re-
suits: there are visible evidences and
there is no question as to the value
received. Another year like 1909 and

the tariff bill admit that they must
endorse now this Republican mea-

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

Sometimes the pain was SO great
that, when partially awake, would

not sleep well and. after being asleep
q short time. that awful singing pain
would commence and then would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.

for perhaps six weeks, then left of.
as the disease seemed to be eradi-
Gated but toward spring, eighteen
months ago. there was a slight 70
turn of the scalp humor. I com.
menced the Cutcura treatment at
once, so had very little trouble. On
my scalp l used about one half a cake
Of Cuticu-a Soap and half box Of
Cuticura Ointment In all. The first
time I took six or seven bottles Of Gu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles-neither an expensive or te-
