CRIMINAL NEGLECT
OF SKIN AND HAIR

Cuticura Soap and Ointment do SO
much for poor compilations, red,
rough hands, and dry. thin and fall
ing hair. and cost so little that 1t is
almost criminal not to use them.
Think Of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause Of Acknowledgements be-
cause Of pain. Think Of the pleasure
Of a clear skin, soft white hands and
good hair. These blessings are often
only a matter Of e little thoughtful,
timely care, viz.:-warm baths with
Cuticura Soap, assisted when neces.
nary by gentle anointings with Cuti-
cura Ointment. The latest Cuticura
book. an invaluable guide to skin and
hair health, will be mailed free. on

The Passing Of the Wife.


We have known for some time that
the wife would have to go. We have
held off as long as possible the in
evitable moment, but it might just
as we'll be over with at once.
The wife was a very desirable ar
ticlc while she lasted. She mended
the hose and did the homework when
necessary and sat up patiently and
waited for hubby's return. A useful
person certainly-one to love, to hon
or and obey.
Now the suffragette age is upon us
and the wife is rapidly becoming ex-
tinct, says Life.
In a few more years she will be ex-
hibited In museums.
Adieu, madam! We respect your
memory!
