NO HEALTHY SKIN LEFT

MY little son, boy of Eve, broke
out with an itching rash. Three doc
tors prescribed for him, but he kept
getting worse until we could not dress
him any more. They finally advised
me to try o certain medical college,
but its treatment did no good. At
the time was induced to try Cuti-
cura he was SO bad that had to cut
his hair of and put the Cuticura Ofnt-
ment on him on bandages, as 1t was
impossible to touch him with the bare
hand. There was not one square inch
Of skin on his whole body that was
not affected. He was one mass of
sores. The bandages used to stick to
his skin and in removing them it used
to take the skin of with them, and
the screams from the poor child were
heartbreahng. began to think that
he would never get well, but after the
second application of Cuticura Oint-
ment began to see signs of improve
ment, and with the third and fourth
applications the sores commenced to
dry up. His skin peeled off twenty
times, but 1t finally yielded to the
treatment. Now can say that he is
entirely cured, and stronger and
healthier boy you never saw than he
is to-day, twelve years or more since
the cure was effected Robert Wattam.

The Exclamation.

Old Podkins lay back in his chair
in calm content, and though his wife
was quite near him he was happy, for
she had not broken the silence for
nearly five minutes.
He had been married for five-and
twenty long years, and Mrs. Podkins
almost daily during "a of them. had
disturbed the domestic peace by too
full exercise Of her tongue.
MY DEAR" broke in Mrs. P,
thinking it time she said something to
interrupt the quiet, 81 see by the pa

Science and Cheese.

A medical authority kindly assures
US that as long as cheese isn't de-
cayed it will not affect the health of
the consumer. This is fact that we
have suspected for a considerable
time. But how is the ordinary cheese
epicure to detect the difference-un-
less he waits for results?
There is cheese SO thoroughly dis
guised in the costume and aroma Of
decay that its proper standing on the
sanitary testing table would puzzle a
conjuror.
For instance, there is the brand
known as limburger.
But why pursue this subject?
