When FrIendshln counts.

The doors of the deformed man are
always locked. and the key is on the
outside. lie may have treasures OF
charm inside, but they will never be
revealed unless the person outside CO.
operates with him in unlocking the
door. A friend becomes, to a much
greater degree than with the ordinary
man, the indispensable means OF dis
covering ones own personality. One
only exists, so to speak, with friends.
1t is easy to see how hopelessly such
.sensitiyeness incapacitates a man
for business, professional or social
life, where the hasty and superficial
impression is everything, and disas-
ter is the fate of the man who has
not. all the treasures OF his personal
ity in the front window where they
can be readily inspected and .ap-
praised.-From the September At

II Your Food Fails to Sustain You

despondent, depressed and blue and a
change to the kind Of food the body
demands will change the whole thing
A young woman from Phila. says:
For several years l kept in a run
down, miserable sort of condition, was
depressed and apprehensive of trouble.
! lost flesh in a distressing way and
seemed in a perpetual sort of dreamy
nightmare. No one serious disease
showed, but the 'all-over' sickness was
enough.
Finally, between the doctor and IA
ther, l was put on Grape-Nuts and
cream, as IL was decided l must have a
nourishing food that the body could
make use of.
"The wonderful change that came
over me was not, like Jonah's gourd,
the growth of single night, yet 1t
came with a rapidity that astonished
me.
During the first week I gained in
weight, my spirits improved, and the
world began to look brighter and more
worth while.
And this has continued steadily, till
now, after the use of Grape-Nuts for
only few weeks, am perfectly well,
feel splendidly, take lively interest in
everything, and am changed person

ALMOST CRAZY WITH ECZEMA

II, the undersigned, cannot give
enough praise to the Cuticura Rem
edies. ! had been doctoring for at
least year for eczema on my foot l
had tried doctor after doctor all to
no avail. When young girl sprained
my ankle three different times, paying
little or no attention to it, when five
years ago small spot showed upon
my left ankle. l was worried and sent
for doctor. He said it was eczema.
He drew a small bone from the ankle
about the size of a match and about
an inch long. The small hole grew
to about the size of an apple, and the
eczema spread to the knee. The doc
tors never could heal the hole in the
ankle. The whole foot ran water all
the time.
My husband and my sons were up
night and day wheeling me from one
room to another in the hope of giving
me some relief. / would sit for hours
at time in front OF the fireplace
hoping for daybreak. The pain was
so intense / was almost crazy. In fact,
/ would lose my reason for hours at
a time. One day a friend Of mine
dropped in to see me. No more had
she glanced at my foot than she ex
claimed: Mrs. Finnegan, why In the
world don't you try the Cuticura Rem
ediesv Being disgusted with the doc
tors and their medicines, and not be-
ing able to sleep at all, decided to
give the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment trial. After using them
three days that night slept as sound
as a silver dollar for eight long hours.
j awoke in the morning with but very
little pain, in fact, / thought / was

Remedies for three months l was per-

One reason American pride is
mortally wounded when Europeans
call us "underlanguaged Americans"
is because the words reflect so I'M
fayorably upon our home and school
training, and if Americans are proud
of anything it is their homes and
edueation, to develop which they
have unlimited funds and the deepest
interest Why are We IAN under
lahgdaged nation" in spite Of the
fact that nations with all languages
flock to our shores and the land is
covered with cultured homes and
modern schools? Is it not because
of what the >"Boston Herald' is
pleased to call our ::grossly defect
i've system Of teaching modern lang
uages in our schools" and we add in
our, homes? In this respect we must
confess our homes and schools are
far below the International standard.
If every nation adopted the American
boosted one language standard, how
could there be a development If in
ternational culture, trade and fell
lowship, to which America can and
should make a liberal contribution,
instead of doing the least?
Another question will bring us to
the real point: Why is it we cannot
standardize our home and school
training in this as in other respects
You may answer for yourself. In
this connection we only wish to say
that one reason is Americans are
trained to look down upon the i'm
migrants, their languages and their
fatherlands, though all their fore
fathers were once despised immi-
grants, unamericanized aliens. Here
We face the main difficulty in ou1
contention, not the lack of funds, o,
of ability to teach and learn, but
our assumed attitude of superiorit,
to the older, stronger and more in
