BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby was six
with little bumps. They would dry
up and leave a scale. Then it would
break out again and it, spread all over
his head. All the hair came out and
his head was scaly all over. Then his
face broke out all over in red bumps
and it kept spreading until it was on
his hands and arms. / bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat
him, but he got worse all the time He
had it about six months when friend
told me about Cuticura. l sent and
got a bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, a
cake of Cuticura Soap and box of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to improve.
He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes OF
Ointment and three cakes of Soap he
was sound and well, and never had
any breaking out Of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to use
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fail to cure what put
them on. l think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise any one to
use it. Cuticura Soap is the best that
/ have ever used for toilet purposes" !"

Stuffy McInnes of the Athletics has

Ty Cobb seems to be going after

President Charles Somers of the

Christy Mathewson appears to be

good deal this year, and one of the
invitations you are going to accept

So Markham adjusted his cravat
and patiently remained.
Mrs Paysan entered the room like
a fresh breeze.
MY dear" she exclaimed, ''how
fortunate to find you at home! And
Mr.. Markham, too, whom l had the
pleasure Of meeting just once for
about three minutes. But l assure
you those three minutes were among
the pleasantest in my life. Geraldine,
you simply must bring Mr.. Markham
to the little dinner l am giving on
the 29th I've invited some awfully
clever people, and your husband will
be just in his element Promise me,
Mr. Markham, you will let Geraldine
bring you"

After the visitor had gone Wilfrid
quite surprised his wife by the inter

pretty woman she is" he remarked,
several times. 81 don't think | have
ever seen a much sweeter face or
manner. What fool Harry Paysan
must have been to let her go out of
his life!'
Geraldine smiled to herself at the
thought of her husbands lack of
worldly wisdom, but she said nothing
To have him consent to go out with
her for a whole week was quite
enough.
Wilfrid had unmistakable charm,
she knew, and people would be apt
to make rather a fuss over him once
they got the chance.
On the morning of the twenty
ninth new evening suit arrived for
Mr.. Markham.
MY other one looked so old-fash-

that | felt it would really be disre
spectful to Mrs. Paysan."
The dinner proved a great success.

Even during a game in which he is
working, and where every other play
er is on edge because Of the closeness
of the combat, Burns does not change
his tactics.
During his career with Washington
he pitched game in Chicago in which
the score stood 1 to for the Nation
ais in the eighth inning. The players
were on tension watching every
move, but while the Washington play
ers were on the bench in the ninth
Burns fell asleep and actually had to
be aroused to pitch the final inning.
Sox pounded him for two runs and
won the game.
