HOME CURE FOR ECZEMA
OIL of Winsergreen. Thymoi diycerlne, Etc.
Used as a Simple Wash.

1t really seems strange that so many
people suffer year in and year out with
eczema, when it is now no longer d Sc
cret that oil of wintergreen mixed with
thymol. glycerlne, etc, makes a wash
that is bound to cure.
Old, obstinate cases, it is true, can
not be cured in few days, but there
is absolutely no sufferer from eczema
who ever used this simple wash and
did not find Immediately that won
derfully soothing, calm, cool sensation
that comes when the itch is taken away.
Instantly upon applying few drops
of the wash the remedy takes effect,
the itch is allayed. There is no need
of experiment-the patient knows at
once.
Instead of trying to compound the
oil Of wintergreen, thymol, glycerlne,
etc, in the right proportions ourselves
we are using a prescription which is
universally found the most effective.
It is known as the d. D. d. PresCrip-
ton, or Oil Of Wintergreen Compound.

cago, and our long experience with
this remedy has given US great conf

LADY THAT ALWAYS SMILES
How Servant Identified Caller on His

Some of us would be more sur.
prised than pleased if we knew the
Impressions we make on the minds of
those who know us only slightly. How
many Of you girls are remembered as
pleasantly as was the lady described
In the following incident?
A lady called at the house of q
neighbor on an errand; but, as the
family were away, she asked the hired
man to tell his employer that she
would call again. Being in a hurry,
and not thinking but that the man
knew who she was, she did not leave
her name. The lady of the house re-
turned before the rest of the family,
and the man told her that a lady had
been there who said she'd call again.
who was it," inquired Mrs. H.
"Oh, I don't know her name," re-
piled the man.
But you should have asked her"
said Mrs. H., 80 we would know who
had been here. Cant you tell me any
thing by which can know who came?
Where does she nve?"
Il don't know" said the man. "but
she's the one that always smiles when
she speaks"
The pleasant look and the courteous
manner in which the lady had spoken
to the servant had been noticed and
remembered. leaving a sunbeam in
that mans heart.

TO TRAIN CRIPPLED CHILDREN
Bodily Defects Sometimes Entirely
Cured by Physical Exercises
Directed by Teacher.

Corrective physical training for
crippled children is of great import
ance, as bodily defects can be partly
and sometimes entirely cured by spe-
cial physical exercises under the d.
rection Of trained teacher.
Twenty-three such classes for Grip
pied children, with an enrolment of
over $50 children, were carried on
free of charge in New York last year
by the Peoples University Extension
society of No. 105 East Seventeenth
street.
Ninety-six free classes in annual and
domestic training were given to an
enrolment Of about nine hundred Grip
pied children by the same society, be-
sides "a free classes for mentally de-
fective children.
The manual work taught included
basketry, bookbinding, chair Gaming,
economic cooking, dressmaking, ele-
mentary carpentry, embroidery, cord
work, sewing, shirtwaist making and
weaving. One badly crippled boy of
ten learned chair Gaming so quickly
that he soon hung out a sign for
chairs to cane.
One of the largest departments of
the work Of this society is supplying
free lectures by physicians to meet
ings Of tenement mothers, giving
them simple practical advice about
the care Of children and prevention of
contagious and other disease. More
than $1,000 mothers were given such
instruction last year in English, Ital.
ian, German and Yiddish.

Miss Kitty's auto, and she vas run
ming it herself. After getting out of
the crowd, and heading up the shore,
they saw a young man half mile
ahead of them. He was scuff1ng along
on the hard track and was in their
path. The honk! honk! was sounded,
but he paid no attention. He wanted
to be run over and have that aching
tooth smashed out.
The autmobile passed him within
two feet and in spite Of himself he
gave jump and swallowed the pep
permint-soaked wad of cotton. He
then had to produce more cotton and
more peppermint for his aching tooth.
Mr.. Gillett's walk had extended two
miles when he sat down on hum
mock and resorted to more pepper
mint. His sister was right; it began
to have soothing effect! He began
to feel glad that he was alive and
away from the snow heaps of New
York city. Just then he caught sight
Of the auto returning. AS it drew
near, he saw that Miss Edna Blair
was paSSaDly gOOd looking and that
Miss Kitty Waldron was more so. The
auto was aiming to pass him within
few feet, but that was all right. He
reasoned that the girls desired a near
er view of the young man, whom they
had so frightened, and he was right
about it. They didn't seem to see
him, Of course. but that was false
pretense.
And after that fate stepped in. The
auto was exactly opposite Philip to
an inch, and exactly six feet and one
inch and half away, when a front
tire exploded with bang. Two
young ladies screamed. The auto ran
wild until half buried in the sand.
The young man was blown over on
his back by the conclusion and swal-

Deaf and Dumb and Blind
By PAUL CALVIN ANDERSON
Copyright, 1910. by Associated Literary Press)

When the tide is out at Palm
Beach hundreds of hotel guests walk
up and down the hard, wet sands.
Others speed up and down in their au-
tos. Others, still, sit on hired chairs
and gaze out seward and imagine
they can hear the songs of mer-
maids.
On a certain day in the present
twentieth century Philip Gillett was
among those who walked. He was
young man at the beach with his
mother and sister, and his occupation
when at home in New York was pre-
pairing himself for architecture. He
did that mostly by looking at one or
two skyscrapers a day from the out
side and spending $500 per week al
lowed by his father. 1t was his ia
Their who had insisted that the young
man take up architecture. There
never had been an architect in the
Gillett family, and he wanted one.
He had manor house, and he wanted
a hennery built, and he wanted to
point to it after it was finished and
say: "A Gillett did that"
On this particular day Philip Gillett
had toothache and he set out to walk
1t off. His sister had told him to hold
wad of cotton saturated with pep
permint essence in his mouth, and to
keep his mouth shut. He thought a
good deal of his sister, and he was
obeying her.
Toothache affects a person pecu-
liarly-particularly man. It gives
him what is known as a crouch He
wants to stand on the beach and see
a dentist drown in the sea- He isn't
to blame, but everybody else is. And
what made young Mr.. Gillett crosser
still was the fact that he had to chew

due advantage of fellow.

FREDERIC CHOPIN AS A BOY

Frederic Francis Chopin was a
bright, happy little lad, overlooking
with fun and good spirits, but, while
still mere baby. if he heard music
everything else was forgotten, and
he would listen eagerly. his big
brown eyes slowly filling with tears,
not of unhappiness, but of pleasure
so exquisite that there seemed no
other way of expressing it, writes
Fannie w. Marshall in st. Nicholas.
Almost as, soon as he could walk
he would climb up on the stool before
the piano and try to make music for
himself. His parents seemed to take
it as q matter of course that their
son should inherit their own love of
music, and one of the best masters
in Warsaw. was engaged to give him
piano lessons, which he shared with
his older sister.
Little Frederic not only made sur
prising progress, leaving his clever
sister far behind, but soon, the tiny
hands sought and found lovely new
melodies and chords, and he would
beg his. teacher to write them down
for him. AS he grew older he would
make up stories on the piano." as he
called it. All his Mfe,. even after
his fame became worldwide, he ex-
ercised this wonderful gift, Of impro-
visfng, and many who were privileged
to hear him have said that, beautiful
as his written music is, only those
who sat near him In the twilight and
listened III rapt silence to- the divine
sounds which the slender fingers sent
pulsating through the stiffness knew
the greatness Of his genius. +

OF all progressive games none is
more popular than this. As in all
others, a small table is provided for
every four players, but Salmagundi is
distinguished from other games in
that different game is played at
each table.
Games of cards may be chosen, If
preferred, such as hearts. euchre, five
hundred, sniff, etc., or such games as
dominos, jack straws, lotto, helma,
pit, flsh-poles. The rules for playing
these are supplied with the game
when purchased. There is no rule
against such games as Patent Medi'
cines," "Menagerie," etc., which Ger
tainly contribute to a merry uproar.
The winners progress at sound Of
the signal given at the head table,
and play new game. The losers
keep their places and must play the
same game over again.
The Introduction of variety adds to
the pleasure, and as there is change
of partners at each progression"
everybody meets everybody else.
When every couple has made the
round of the tables and played all
the games. the prizes are awarded
