WASTED A FORTUNE ON SKIN
TROUBLE

81 began to have an itching over my
whole body about seven years ago and
this settled in my limbs, from the knee
to the toes. I 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 I 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.
81 had seen the advertisement of
the Cuticura Remedies great many
times, but could not make up my mind
to buy them, for had already used so
many medicines. Finally I did decide
to use the Cuticura Remedies and
tell you that ! was never so pleased as
when I noticed that, after having used
two sets of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment and Cuticura Pills, the en-
tire Inflammation had gone. was
completely cured. should be only
too glad If people with similar disease
would come to me and f1,d out the
truth. would only recommend them
to use Cuticura. Mrs. Bertha Sachs,

DAME NATURE HINTS
When the Food Is Not Suited.

When Nature gives her signal that
something is wrong it Is generally
with the food. The old Dame Is al
ways faithful and one should act at
once.
To put off the change is to risk that
which may be irreparable. An Arizona
man says:
For years could not safely eat any
breakfast. ! tried various kinds OF
breakfast food, but they were all soft,
starchy messes which gave me dis
tressing headaches. / drank strong
coffee, too, which appeared to benefit
me at the time, but added to the head
aches afterwards. Toast and coffee
were no better, for found the toast
very constipating.
"A friend persuaded me to quit the
old coffee and the starchy breakfast
foods, and use Postum and Grape-Nuts
instead. I shall never regret taking
his advice. / began using them three
months ago.
1.-THE change they have worked in
me is wonderful. / now have no more
of the distressing sensations In my
stomach after eating, and never have
headaches. I have gained IL pounds
in weight and feel better in every way.
"Grape-Nuts make a delicious as
, well as a nutritious dish, and / find
that Postum is easily digested and
never produces dyspepsia symptoms"

publicans have been making gains
throughout the country. Already they
have supplanted enough regulars BY
their own nominees to increase their
total membership Of simon pure pro.
gressives to something like fifty. In
addition, there are a number Of regu.
lars who have declared against Can
non. The insurgents claim that their
successes will stem the Democratic
tide. How much there may be in the
claim is largely a matter Of opinion
since no election has yet been held in
which a progressive Republican was
p1tted against a Democrat.
AS matters now stand the progress
sives have most Of the congressional
nominees west of Ohio. the regulars
controlling the bulk of those in the
Buckeye State and east Of it. Granting
that the Democrats make no gains in
insurgent territory, can they pick off
enough men in the northeast to give
them a majority? Champ Clark, still
thinking of those mules, says yes. Can
non says-but it is not printable.
All this is the merest speculation,
however. Conditions are so unsettled
that almost anything is possible, even
to the formation Of a new party. The
only things that seem certain in the
house election are that Uncle Joe's
speakership candidacy is not very
promising and that the Democrats
alone or the Democrats and progress
s1ves together will control the body by
a larger margin than at present.

Divine Birds.

Water birds which are ordinarily
able to float high on the water can
also sink at will by expelling the air
which is inclosed within the film of
feathers surrounding their bodies, thus
making them heavier than water. This
mechanical trick on the part Of div.
ing birds is probably familiar to all
who have watched the kingfsher at
close quarters and have noted the sud.
den contraction in the birds apparent
size as it takes the plunge. This is
much more easily observed in the case
Of the starting. which sometimes imi
tates the kingisher by plunging into
water for food. The shrinkage of the
bird in apparent size is very apparent
when, after lowering above the sur.
face, it turns downward to dive.-Zo
