Boy Tortured Inv Eczen,n

When my boy was six years old, he
suffered terribly with eczema. He
could neither sit still nor lie quietly in
bed, for the itching was dreadful. He
would irritate spots by scratching
with his nails and that only made
them worse. A doctor treated him
and we tried almost everything. but
the eczema seemed to spread. 1t
started In a small place on the lower
eXtremities and spread for two years
until 1t very nearly covered the back
part of his leg to the knee.
Finally got Cuticura Soap, Cuti-
cura Ointment and Cuticura Pills and
gave them according to directions. I
used them in the morning and that
evening, before l put my boy to bed.
l used them again and the improve
ment even I'm those few hour was sur
prising, the inflammation seemed to
be so much less. used two boxes of
Cuticura Ointment, the same of the
Pills and the Soap and my boy was
cured. My son is now in his sew
enteenth year and he has never had n
return OF the eczema.
u took care of friends child that
had eczema on it's face and limbs and
l used the Cuticura Soap and ONT
ment. They acted on the child Just as
they did on my son and it has never
returned. l would recommend the
Cuticura Remedies to anyone. Mrs.

No Inecnue Now.

Every little while some one raises
a wall because the ingenue. in muslin
and ribbons has disappeared. So far
as dress, and often so far as anything
else. is concerned at present, eigh-
teen can scarcely be distinguished
from forty. The mother-at little
distance-cannot be distinguished
from her daughter, and it is quite i'm
possible to distinguish an older from
a younger sister. But they sigh in
vain, who sigh for n return Of the age
line in women's dress. It is part of
the revolt of the sex that it refuses
any longer to be valued according to
age or to proclaim its years in the
ancient fashion. Forty wears muslin
and ribbons if they happen to be be-
coming to her, and eighteen wears
silk and diamonds if she feels so in
clined.-New York Tribune.

the following manner: Take teacup-
full of boiling water and stir into it
two teaspoonfuls OF ordinary gum.
BE sure that the water is quite
boiling, or the gum will not dissolve
Let the mixture cool, then dip your
fingers into it and use them to
smooth the ragged edges of the feath-
ers into place.
Don't make the feathers too damp
or they will look glazed when dry
Use only enough grim to secure the
little wandering pieces of fun in

Cover the feathers lightly with clean
paper and put them aside for IL
hours. When they are dry, they will
look as fresh and trim as they did
on the day that you bought them.
If ribbon bows are limp, unpick, re-
move all stray pieces of thread, brush,
and put them TO soak for an hour in
weak solution of cold sugar and wa
ter. This solution should be made
beforehand three Jumps of white SUI

When they are well soaked, take
them cut and roll them up as tightly
as possible; on no account wiring

Put the little rolls away till they

press them with a hot iron. Ribbon

that disagreeable shininess which is
so often visible on ironed silk.
If velvet is brushes, stretch it tight
ly between your hands, and move it to

kettle till it is thoroughly damp. Have
ready board covered with a clean
napkin. Lay all the velvet on the
board, and fasten round with drawing
pins. Set it aside to dry, when YOU
will find that the pile has come up
again" and the material looks as good
as now.
Be careful that nothing touches the
velvet while it is drying, or a bad
mark will be made, which Will remain
till the velvet has undergone a second
steaming.
If light felt is soiled, remove the
trimming, brush the hat well. and
cover it with a paste of gasoline and
BRAN make this paste as soft as pos
s.ble without being wet apply it
thickly TO the hat, pressing it on firm
ly with your fingers. The gasoline
will evaporate very quickly; then the
dry bran can be shaken off, and the
hat will remain quite clean.
One word of warning: Don't take
gasoline near light or fire, or it viii

Consider Your Features

When fashioning yolIes in frocks
remember that all yokes need not be
round. You may depart from the
usual shape to bring out the good
points of your features and to sub
merge the unattractive lines by a
counteracting yoke effect.
The round features of the Cupid
type of face ought to be very wen
linked with a gulmpe or yoke whose
lines are long BY a pointed yoke

opening which drops In steps from the
neck to the lower end. Trimming
should be applied in vertical lines,
whether tucks, braid or ruGes of lace
For the long oval face the opposite
treatment should be tried A rounded
yoke with lines of braiding running
parallel with the edge will do wond-
ers for the face above This type OF
face looks better above a fluffy Pier
rot collar than a long jabot
If women would master the lines OF
