A BURNING ERUPTION FROM
HEAD TO FEET

-Four years ago l suffered severely
with a terrible eczema, being mass
of sores from head to feet and for six
weeks confined to my bed. During
that time | suffered continual tor
ture from itching and burning. After
being given up by my doctor l was ad-
vised to try Cuticura Remedies. After
the first bath with Cuticura Soap and
application of Cuticura Ointment l en-
joyed the first good sleep during my
entire illness. | also used Cuticura
Resolvent and the treatment was con-
tinued for about three weeks. At the
end of that time l was able to be
about the house, entirely cured, and
have felt no Ill effects since. I would
advise any person suffering from any
form of skin trouble to try the Cuti-
cura Remedies as | know what they
did for me. Mrs. Edward Nenning,

The Kind Cadaie

"Once in game" said the golfer,
II had the good fortune to be six holes
up on my opponent by the time the
eighth hole was reached. At the
eighth green something went wrong
with our reckoning of the strokes and
l claimed that l had won that hole,
too, while my opponent claimed that
it was halved. After a mild dispute
yielded.
But as l moved on with my caddie
l couldn't help grumbling:
Well, you know, Joseph, I gave
in; but l still think l won that hole
after all
"The boy with frown, turned
shocked and reproving eyes on me.
Disguised with my greed for holes, he
whispered hurriedly, so that my op-
ponent should not overhear:
"'Shut up, can't you? Do We want
to break the mans hearth"

Prof. Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the
telephone, who has been engrossed for several
years past In experiments with kites formed from
tetrahedral cells and who has latterly designed
manfting kite that has made some wonderful
performances, has included wireless telegraphy as
one branch Of his kite Investigations. For this
teegraphic work he has employed kite of com.
paratvely modest size, preceded by small pilot
kite, and these have usually been flown at height
of about 1000 feet. The kites carry aoft tele-
graphic equipment in the form Of ordinary green
electriclfght cord to the upper end or receiving
terminal of which is attached 400 feet of antennae

the reel Of piano wire-the point from which the
kite Is sent up.
DR.. Bell has had the cooperation In these ex.
periments of Mr.. De Forest, inventor of the wire
less telegraphy system which bears his name as
well as the aid of other wireless telegraphy experts
The original kite messages via the artificial birds
sent aloft by DR.. Bell were transmitted distance
of only six miles, but gradually this was increased
until the transmission attained hundreds of miles
and included the exchange of aerograms with
steamers more than 100 miles at sea- In one ex
pertinent the telegraph operator caught the mes

who stood at the side of the receiving instrument

Latterly, when the development of
