CHILD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUMOR

"I think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema l have
ever heard of. My mother had child
who had a rash on its head when it
was real young. Doctor called 1t baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but it did
no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle OF Cuticura Re-
solvent. box of Cuticura Ointment,
and bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed, washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema. and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau
tiful head OF hair. think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
II makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund. Plain City. Utah, Sept. 10, 1910.

ment are sold everywhere. a sample

Deaths Due to Dust.

A warning against the dangers OF
dust was issued recently by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis, in which
It is shown that the percentage of
deaths caused by tuberculosis in dusty
trades is more than double that for all
employed men in the registration area
of the United States. While among
males generally in the registration
area of the United States 14.5 per
cent. of all deaths are from consump.
ton the mortality among grinders
from this disease is 49, per cent, and
in hardly any of the dusty trades is 1t
below % per cent. The percentage OF
deaths from tuberculosis among all
those exposed to metallic dust is 36.e
per cent: to mineral dust, 2s.6 per
cent; to vegetable fibre dust, 2s.s per

forms of dust. 32.1 per cent; to street

with a given persons skin only can

you find your complexion improving
under a given treatment, do not
change your methods because some
one else recommends different treat
ment.
There are few directions that will
seldom disagree with any skin. Usu-
ally It will be found beneficial to bathe
the face at night with hot water to re-
move all dirt; then massage with good
cold cream. In the morning all that Is
necessary is q quick rub with cold wa
ter. Do not be afraid to rub the face
a little. The skin needs exercise as
well as any other part OF the body
How often 1t is neglected! Pinching
or rubbing the skin tends to draw a
greater supply OF blood to the parts
mRssaged. This Increased circulation

and many of these range from 150 to 800
gallons. For spraying high trees II is neces-
sary to use elevated tower or platform
built upon wagon and with one man on the
tower and two men the ground spraying may
be carried on with the greatest possible degree
of efficiency. OF course. a good length of hose is
essential-onehah inch. being popular size,
and it should be capable OF standing 200 pounds
pressure per square inch.
Trees in towns and cities are naturally much
more liable to such injuries will later require
the practice Of tree surgery than those in the
country districts. The piling of building material
against trees, the attaching OF guy wires and the
grading OF streets or roads are all causes pro-
ductive of injuries. Overcrowding by other trees,
horse bites and girdling by wire labels other
sources of trouble One of the worst of ALL how
ever. is improper pruning tree butchery. As
a matter of fact. intelligent. systematic pruning

Pruning requires previous intimate knowledge
of the habits of growth of trees, whereas surgery

edge of the best methods for making cavities air
tight and preventing decay. The principle is
ruch the same that employed by the dentists
who fill cavities in the teeth of human beings,
and this caring for the cavities in trees is the
only means OF preserving affected specimens and
saving to this and future generations some of the
roblest specimens of woodland growth The
favorte mixture for filling cavities is composed
OF one part Portland cement TO three parts OF
clean, sharp sand. After all decayed decaying
matter has been removed from the cavity the
whole cavity is filled with this thin mortar. and

made of one part sand and one part cement and
the surface is faced to exclude all mois-
ture from the opening of the cavity
1t should be noted in conclusion that Provi-
dence has provided us with the best tree doctor
in the form of that familiar and unapprecated
bird the woodpecker. The woodpecker is easily
the most useful of all the seven hundred varieties
of birds to be found in the United States and II
is largely because OF his constant search for and
warfare against the four hundred different varie-
ties of insects that prey upon trees. The
woodpecker is not merely tree doctor, but is
actually tree surgeon because his most
getic quest is for those insects that injure the
internally and to which accrss can be gained
only by of the unique equipment with
which nature has provided the woodpecker and
from the employment of which he derives his

Pimples and black-heads show that
the waste material is not being car
ried away properly but is being left
to clog the pores. Sometimes this ac-
cumulation of waste material is due to
lack of cleanliness. The waste ma
terial is left on the skin and clogs the
pores SO they cannot perform their
work. Sometimes the fault is due to
poor circulation or to diseases of the
eIcretory organs. II one organ is In
