BABY's HAIR ALL CAME OUT

when my first baby Vsas SIX
months old he broke out on his head
with little bumps. They would dry
up and leave a scale. Then it would
break cut again and il spread al over
his head. All the hair came out and
his head a scaly ali over. Then his
face broke L all ever in red bumps
and it kept spreading until 1t was on
hia hands and arms. ] bought several
boxes Of ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had tWo doctors to treat
him, but he got worse ali the N lie
had it about six months when q friend
told me about Cuticura. | sent and
got a bottle of Cuticura ResoIvent, a
cake of Cuticura Soap and q box Of
Cuticura Ointment. In three days
after using them he began to improve.
He began to take long maps and to
stop scratching his head. After taking
two bottles of Resolvent, two boxes OF
Ointment and three cakes OF Soap he
was sound and well, and never had
any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out in little curls all over
his head. ! don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuticura.
II have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Soap several times since to S
for cuts and sores and have never
known them to fail to cure what I put
them on. ! think Cuticura is a great
remedy and would advise n one to
s it. Cuticura Soap is the best that
l have ever used for toilet purposes"

REALLY OPENED THEIR EYES
Pensioners Remark, However, Left
Young Minister Somewhat in
in the Dark.

Rev. Henry R. Rose in the Newark
Star tells the story of a young min
lister who had recently taken charge
OF a small parish in Vermont. He
aEpired to greater things and a large
held, and in the hope that his reputa-
ton would travel beyond the limits Of
the village to which he had been sent
he threw into his sermons ali the
force and e!oquence at his command.
He was, however, totally unprepared
for what was intended for a compii-
ment, but which was put to him in
such a way that it left him in doubt
as to the real impression he had made.
One Sunday morning, after an espe-
cially brilliant effort, he was greeted
by an old lady, who was one of the
most faithful attendants at all sery-
ices. Approaching the young minister,
she said: "Ah, sir, we do enjoy your
sermons 80 much, they are SO in
structive- Do you believe it, we never
knew what sin was until you came to
the parish"

Young Aqe Pensions.

Young-age pensions! Why not? Tt
ties, honors, riches, pensions and most
other good things are, as a rule, post
poned to a period of life when the "a
pacity for enjoying them has been
blunted. Australia was one of the
first countries to adopt old-age PEN
sions, and now a Labor member of the
commonwealth parliament proposes a
complementary scheme of young-age
pensions. He would start By pension
ing the fourth child at birth. The fact
that three had previously been born
showed that the parents were doing
their duty AID deserving well of the
state. The young-age pension would
reward industry and encourage the
birth rate."-London Chronicle.
