years ago. after trying home remedies
without getting helped, l asked my
doctor to prescribe for me, but it was
not for year or more that my nails
and fingers were well. The infiamma-

base of the finger nail. Sometimes it
was so painful that l had to use a
poutice to induce suppuration. After
the pus was discharged the swelling
would go down until the next period
of Inflammation, possibly not more
than week or two afterwards. These
frequent infiammations resulted In the

many as three fingers in this state at
one time
Perhaps ten years later I began
again to suffer from the same trouble.
Again l tried various remedies, among
them a prescription from a doctor of
friend of mine, who had suffered
from a like trouble. This seemed to
help somewhat for time, but it was
not a permanent cure; next tried
prescription from my own doctor, but
this was so irritating to the sensitive,
diseased skin that l could not use it.
I began to use Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. 1 had used the Cuticura
Ointment previously on my children's
scalps with good effect. l did not use
the Soap exclusively, but I rubbed the
Cuticura Ointment into the base of

- UANTITIES of puffs and curls,
- and all sorts of little head
dresses, continue to mark the
coiffure of milady of fashion when she
prepares to do honor to a state occa-
sion, or to dress with dignity. This
elaboration in hair dressing is very
becoming in the majority of cases,
and those women who have once tried
1t realize the charm of It, Only the
grand beauty NAV turn her back upon
careful arrangement of the hair and
still be as attractive as her artfully-
groomed sister who knows the fas-
cination of soft curls and smooth
puffs.
Unless one has plenty of time and
so&e one to help out, the natural hair
can hardly be arranged in the man
ner shown in the illustrations. No
matter how generous nature may
have been, puffs and curls are, as a
rule. pinned on. Mere man may long
to believe them growing on the head
of her he admires, but when the
knowledge dawns on him that they do
not, he still confesses to their fascina-
ton.
Not everyone can accomplish a sue
cessful coiffure either simple or COM
plex, and 1t is therefore a good plan
to decide upon a becoming model,
just as one decides upon a becoming
hat. When so much progress has
been made, the next step takes one to
