LAWYER CURED OF ECZEMA

while attending school at Lebanon.
Ohio, in 1882, l became afflicted with
boils, which lasted for about two
years. when the affection assumed the
form of an eczema on my face, the
lower part Of my face being infamed
most of the time. There would be
water-blisters rise up and open, and
wherever the water would touch it
would burn, and cause another one to
rise. After the blister would open,
the place would scab over, and would
burn and itch so as to be almost I'M
bearable at times. In this way the
sores would spread from one place to
another, back and forth over the
whole of my upper lip and chin, and
at times the whole lower part of my
face would be a solid sore. This con-
dition continued for four or five years,
without getting any better, and in fact
got worse all the time, so much SO
that my wife became alarmed lest it
prove fatal.
During all this time of boils and
eczema, I doctored with the best ply.
sicians of this part of the country, but
to no avail. Finally I decided to try
Cuticura Remedies, which I did, TAX
ing the Cuticura Resolvent, applying
the Cuticura Ointment to the sores,
and using the Cuticura Soap for wash
ing. In a very short time I began to
notice Improvement, and continued to
use the Cuticura Remedies until I was
well again, and have not had a re-
currence of the trouble since, which is
over twenty years. I have recon-
mended Cuticura Remedies to others
ever since, and have great faith in
them as remedies for skin diseases"

Law, G%reenville, O., Jan. II, 1911.
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint.
ment are sold everywhere, a sample
of each, with 32-page book, will be
mailed free on application to "Cuti.

Five years ago we waged a cam

system of water works in Pocahon-

interest and we became discouraged
and let the matter drop. Since that
time enough property has been de-
stroyed by fire to establish and nam
tain two water works systems such
as would be required for a town OF
this size. The loss sustained in last
SUNDAYS fire alone was half enough
to pay the expense of putting in a
good system, and just think what
the result would have been had the
surrounding circumstances been al
ferent. Not one time IN five hun
dred would fire so situated be con

More About Good Roads

The proposition submitted in th,
Star Herald last week relative L
better public roads is meeting will
much approval, according to state
ments made to us by citizens Of
Pocahontas and the surrounding
country. The result so far is very
gratifying to us as it shows that the
people are catching the true spirit
of progress and are about ready fol
action.
We are in dead earnest about
this matter because we know it is
the leading step to great forward
movement in the development and
upbuilding of the good old county
of Randolph.
Nothing is more imperative just
at this time than that we must go
forward, if we expect to keep in
the line of progress that is being
maugurated all over the country.
We can go. We must go. We
believe that many citizens are ready
and willing to fall in line with
either time or money, or both, to
carry forward this good work that
means so much for this country now
and in years to come. 1t is need
less for us to state again any of the
benefits to be derived from good
public roads, for this subject has
been engaging the minds of many
of our good citizens for quite awhile,
and all understand the situation
thoroughly.
The great question uppermost in
the thoughts of the people is, How
can theses good conditions be brought
about without heavy taxation and
great.lsai'oi hard woyk On the part
of each citizen? These questions
are being settled every day by
practical road builders and by people
who have been where they have good
roads and understand the manner
in which they are made. Articles
on the subject of road building will
be published in the Star Herald,
from week to week, from men who
are familiar with every phase of the
work. In addition to this we in
vite correspondence from citizens
of the county expressing their views
on the plan of five miles of sample
road as we outlined in this paper
last week. We are willing to put
$40 in cash into 1t, and one or two
days work besides.
1t has been suggested that the
road leading from Pocahontas to
the Five Mile spring be selected on
which to make this demonstration
Should this road be selected one
DAYS time would be all that would
be required to do the work, il
everybody who travels this road
would be willing to contribute that
much time. We can raise enough
cash to secure the help of 80 or 75
men and teams for one day. rher
with the assistance of those whC
live in the vicinity Of and beyond
this road, the work can be done in
one day. Then we would be able
to show to the entire county a road
over which travel would be q
pleasure. When this is done the
hardest of the battle is won. Others
will catch the spirit and everybody,
everywhere, will become interested,
and in less than twelve months oul
roads would be very different from
