whole body about seven years ago and
this settled in my limbs. from the knee
to the toes. went to see great many
physicians, a matter which cost me q
fortune, and after noticed that did
not get any relief that way. went for
three years to the hospital. But they
were unable to help me there. used
all the medicines that could see but
became worse and worse. had an
inflammation which made me almost
crazy with pain. When l showed my
foot to my friends they would get
really frightened. did not know
what to do. l was so sick and had be-
come SO nervous that I positively lost
all hope.
II had seen the advertisement Of
the Cuticura Remedies a great many
times, but could not make up my mind
to buy them, for had already used so
many medicines. Finally l did decide
to use the Cuticura Remedies and I
tell you that I was never so pleased as
when noticed that, after having used
two sets of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment and Cuticura Pills, the en-
tire Inflammation had gone. l was
completely cured. should be only
too glad II people with similar disease
would come to he and find out the
truth. would only recommend them
to use Cuticura. Mrs. Bertha Sachs.

Hints for Ironing Day.

Let the busy housewife once try
this plan when ironing, and she will
no longer cling to the old method of
ironing handkerchiefs. Press each
one out carefully with hot iron. and

others, in fiat pile. Later on, while
resting, fold in the usual creases. II

handkerchief that the creases, be ayt.

ironing is shortened.

1t was made of stout pine beams. firmly

The sides were closely covered with wire
netting. "A roof vas made OF boards.
closely Joined together and slanting
toward one side, SO as to shed the rain.
About the sides OF the summer house
was a trench dug ten inches deep. This
was to carry off the falling rains. Just
inside this trench (and close to the floor

GREAT INVENTIONS.

~ HE compass was invented by the
Chinese nearly four thousand
1 years ago. but it was not intro
d,ced into Europe until about the middle
of the twelfth century. At that time
Marco Polo, who had spent many years
in Asia, returned to Italy bringing the
little guide with him. AT hrst the coiii-
pass was used only on land. but later It's
greatest use was to the mariners. The
essential parts of the compass are mag
netized needle balanced freely upon
fine point fastened to the center OF cir
cular card marked with the letters N 5.
T. w. TO show the cardinal points. The
mariners compass is inclosed In brass
box which is suspended by Gimbals so
that the box may remain horizontal. The
needle of a compass always points north
although the compass may be In any
horizontal position. The reason for this
Is that the earth is q great magnet having
it's poles north and south and attracts all
smaller magnets. The earth's north mag
netic pole is many miles from the real
north pole.
