TIME FOR HIS DEPARTURE
As Close Friend Knew, That Frame Of
Mind Was Not Apt to Be a
Lasting One.

Ben T. Rice and Hymen Levy, both
now dead, were two of the real old
Virginia characters in a small Pied
mont county seat town; Ben was the
keeper of the town inn and Hymen, a
genuine Jew, ran a store. Ben was
noted for profanity, drinking and gam
bling and telling unheard of yarns.
Hymen was a daily visitor at the inn
to get his dram, and at times became
thoroughly shocked at Ben'S Outra-
geous language and Ben,
one evening, joined the town boys in
an exciting game of football on Main
street, became o~verheated, and, cool
ing off too quickly, went into pneu-
monia at night. Several physicians
attended him, who sOOn pronounced
his case hopeless. A dozen or more
of Ben's friends, among them Hymen,
were standing around the bed just be-
fore Ben's spirit took it's flight from
earth, when Ben uttered a long groan
and said: 'Oh, Lord, have mercy on
me-" At this moment Hymen turned
his head slowly and remarked: The
good Lord ought to take Ben right
now, for he never will be SO good no
more"

AN INTOLERABLE ITCHING

Just about two years ago, some
form of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was a slight itching but
1T grew steadily worse until, when l
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. 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
fnger-tips would be bloody. 1 could
not sleep well and, after being asleep
q short time, that awful singing pain
would commence and then l would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said it 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 off,
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 l used about one half a cake
of Cuticura Soap and half a box of
Cuticura Ointment in all. The first
time l took six or seven bottles of Gu.
ticura Pills and the last time three
b~ottles-neither an expensive or te-
dious treatment. Since then / have
had no scalp trouble of any kind.
Standing up, with my hair unbound, it
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

someone else. Miss Lillian Brown.
