AN lNTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years ago, some
form of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
it 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 a painful, burning way, very much
as a bad, raw burn, If 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. l was
in despair, really afraid of becoming
totally bald.
Sometimes the pain was so great
that, when partially awake, l would
scratch the worst places so that my
finger-tips would be bloody l could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
a short time, that awful stinging pain
would commence and then l would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said 1t must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
a toilet soap before, l now decided to
order a set of the Cuticura Remedies
-Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills.
I used them according to directions
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 re-
turn of the scalp humor. COM
menced the Cuticura treatment at
once, SO had very little trouble. On
my scalp used about one half cake
of Cuticura Soap and half a box Of
Cuticura Ointment in all. The first
time took six or seven bottles of Gu
ticura Pills and the last time three
bottles-neither an expensive or te-
dious treatment Since then l have
had no scalp trouble of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, 1t
comes to my knees and had it not been
for Cuticura l should doubtless be
wholly bald.
This is a voluntary, unsolicited tes-
timonial and take pleasure in writing
1t, hoping my experience may help
someone else. Miss Lillian Brown,

The growth of the crusade against

shown to good advantage in the two
directories that have been issued by

the one in preparation. The first tu-

only has been made The combined
capacity Of these Institutions was only
5000 beds. Thirty-two special dis
pensaries and thirty nine antitubercu-
losis organizations summed up prac-
tically all of the fighting force emu
merated in the first directory. The
second directory was prepared by the
National Association for the study and
Prevention of tuberculosis and pub
lished under the auspices Of the Rus

This directory listed 248 sanatoria and
hospitals, an increase Of 107 from the
former directory; 15S dispensaries. an
increase Of 1876; and 1876 associations.
an increase Of 1856. The number OF
hospital beds listed in 1908 was 14,014.
The new directory that will be is
sued soon, will list over 400 sanatoria
and hospitals with bed capacity of
nearly $4,000: more than 300 special
tuberculosis dispensaries; and fully
$50 anti-tuberculosis associations and
committees. Since the first directory
