Of its occurrence, perhaps twenty-five
years ago, after trying home remedies
without getting helped, 1 asked my
doctor to prescribe for me, but 1t was
not for year or more that my nails
and fingers were well. The inflamma-
ton and suppuration began at the base
of the finger nail Sometimes it was
30 painful that had to use poultice
to induce suppuration. After the pus
was discharged the swelling would go
down until the next period of inf1am-
nation, possibly not more than a week
or two afterwards. These frequent in
Examinations resulted in the loss of the
nail
Perhaps ten years later, I began
again to suffer from the same trouble.
Again tried various remedies. among
them a prescription from doctor Of
q friend of mine, who had suffered
from like trouble This seemed to
help somewhat for a time, but 1t was
not permanent cure, uSAI, llleu q
prescription from my own doctor, but
this was so irritating to the sensitive,
diseased skin that 1 could not use it.
began to use Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. 1 had used the Cuticura
Ointment previously on my children's
scalps with good effect did not use
the Soap exclusively, but l rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment into the base of the
nail every night thoroughly, and as
often beside as could. l had not used
1t but few weeks before my nails
were better, and in short time they
were apparently well. There was
no more suppuration, nor inflamma-
ton, the nails grew out clean again.
One box Of Cuticura Ointment was all
that 1 used in effecting a cure.

Character in the Eye.

Beware of the man who does not
look you clearly in the eye. He has
possibilities of evil in his nature.
There are eyes which are luminous,
others which seem to be yelled be-
hind a curtain.
Men and women of the world are
accustomed to judge human nature by
the expression of the eye. Many peo-
pie read character by the eyes. and
can thus distinguish the false from the
loyal, the frank from the deceitful, the
hard from the tender, the energetic
from the indolent, the sympathetic
from the Indifferent
