Saved Old LadY's Hair.

MY mother used to have a very
bad humor on her head which the
doctors called an eczema, and for It I
had two different doctors Her head
was very sore and her hair nearly all
feu out In spite Of what they both
did. One day her niece came in and
they were speaking of how her hair
was falling out and the doctors did It
no good. She says, Aunt, why don't
you try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment" Mother did, and they
helped her. In six months time the
itching, burning and scaling of her head
was over and her hair began growing.
To-day she feels much in debt to Gu
t1cura Soap and Ointment for the fine
head of hair she has for an old lady
Of seventy-four.
My own case was an eczema in
my feet. AS soon as the cold weather
came my feet would itch and burn
and then they would crack open and
bleed. Then I thought | would fee

four or five winters, and now my feet
are as smooth as any ones. Ellis

something desperate, the latter said
Quick, captain! There is no time

With one bound the newly awak-
ened sleeper reached the door and
went crashing down some narrow,
creaking stairs, closely followed by
his companion.
The landlord, hearing the noise, and
perhaps suspecting something OF the
truth, ran to the foot Of the stairs and
attempted to head of his escaping
dodgers.
Catching hold of the big man as
he was in the act of bounding past
him to the rear door, he cried out:

By the time the order was executed,
the freebooters were so far in ad-
vance of their military foes that eth
er the distance, bad aim or inaccur-
acy of their weapons, the fear of hit
ting some of the citizens who were
still vigorously keeping up the pursuit,
or all these circumstances combined,
rendered their several shots ineffect-
ual; and the robbers still held on
their course, the wounded man strain
ing every nerve and his companion
still urging and helping him forward.
In this manner the two outlaws
reached the wood fair distance in

AS the two wayfarers glanced
aorund the taproom their eyes fell up
on a printed poster, offering large
reward for the capture, dead or alive,
of the two noted highwaymen, of John
Doherty, alias Captain Thunderbolt,
and John Martin, alias Captain Light

I'm afraid there's no sich good

er traveller.
He then asked to be shown to his
lodging room, and ordered some bread
and cheese and brandy, remarking
that he and his friend must keep
within their means.
When the two we're alone together
in their room they decided to remain
there and rest themselves through the
night and the following day, and
leave Doneraile on the following
night.
Nothing of Importance occurred till
the following day, when. the elder
man being asleep on the bed and the
younger one looking out of window,
a crowd of persons, among whom
were several soldiers, was seen ap
preaching the house.
The inn was on the outskirts OF the
village, and there was large field

The fellow jerked himself loose in
an instant, and with sort of grim
humor, as he raised his fist and
knocked the innkeeper down, he said.
"All right, my friend I'll settle the
scot by giving you my note for It,"
The next moment he shot through
the open door, with his companion
close at his heels, and the two bound
ed away together across the open
fields toward distant wood.
Instantly loud cries and shouts were
heard:
"There they go! There they go!"
stop thief! Stop thief!'
"Shoot them Shoot them!"
"They are the great highwaymen,
Thunderbolt and Lightfoot!"
"Shoot them! Shoot them!"
The soldiers at once drew up and
fired at the fugitives; and then, find.

they set off in pursuit of them, being
