AN INToLERABLE ITCHING

"Just about two years ago. some
form Of humor appeared on my scalp.
The beginning was q slight itching but
1t 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 . painful. burning way. very much
a . bad. raw burn. II deep. will Itch
and smart when nrst beginning to
heal. Combing my hair was positive
torture. Ny hair was long and tan
gied 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. would
scratch the worst places 80 that my
nnser-ups would be bloody. could
not sleep we'll and. after being asleep
. short time. that awful singing pain
would commence and then would
wake up nearly wild with the torture.
A neighbor said 1t must be salt rheum.
Having used Cuticura Soap merely as
. toilet soap before. now decided to
order 4 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 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 have
had no scalp trouble of any kind.
Standing up. with my hair unbound. 1t
comes to my knees and had 1t not been
for Cuticura I should doubtless be
wholly bald.
This is . voluntary. unsolicited tes-
timonial and take pleasure in writing
1t, hoping my experience may help
someone else. Miss Lillian Brown.

notable result being the removal oil

valuable assistance to them.
To some extent at least II Is ex-
peoted that retrenchment will be the
policy OF the village council during the
coming year. The village is not In a
financial position to undertake many
expensive improvements. The admin
istration will. however. seek to better
the general conditions as much as
possible.
Among the improvements which have
been much discussed i'm Laurium and
which may be realized during 1870 is
the erection OF new fire hall. The
village has n very large quantity OF
first class sandstone. which would
make such building possible at a
small expense. IL is not expected,
however. that plans OF this nature will
be seriously considered until the spring
months.

Fire Hall May be Under.

The first regular monthly meeting of
the Laurium village council for the
new year will be held next Tuesday
evening. 1t is not likely that any spe-
cifc business will come up for consid-
Grafton, as II is too early for specific
plans to be made for the coming years
work. The books OF the village will be
balanced before this meeting and con-
siderable interest viii be manifested
in the report.
The past year has not been marked
by as many Improvements as, other
years, due almost entirely to the de-
pleted condition of the village treas
ury. Some. improvements have, how
ever. been brought about Probably
the most important of these is the
general Encouragement of the lighting
system, bringing some form of light "a

amount of cement sidewalk was laid
