Signor Pucinni, celebrated for his
operas, is still a young man. On the
subject of his early success the Ital-
ian composer said recently in New

81 have been very lucky. Recogni-
ton for artistic work comes so often
after one is too old to enjoy it.
81 remember one of my country
men, centenarian, who, had he died
before 20 would never have seen any
of his operas produced. Luckily he
lived to so great an age that he re-
ceived for many years the admiration
he deserved. Naturally enough. though
this splendid artist regretted his
years of obscurity and neglect and he
frequently spoke bitterly of his bad
fortune.

life an Englishman entered his box at
the opera in Rome. and said, respect

SCALP WAS BADLY AFFECTED

Il am more than gratified by the
successful results l obtained by the
use Of the /Cuticura Remedies. For
several years my scalp was very bad
ly affected with dandruff and scales.
My scalp itched terribly at times and
my hair fell out. My coat collar would
be actually white with the dandruff
that had fallen from my head. My
profession being that of a barber,
was particular about having my hair
in good condition, and was also in
position to try many lotions, etc., for
the scalp. These had little or no eff
feet. l had heard so much about the
Cuticura Remedies that l resolved to.
try them. l shampooed my head
with Cuticura Soap twice a week and
after drying my head thoroughly, l
anointed parts of my scalp with Cuti-
cura Ointment. l was pleased from
the outset, and continued to keep up
this treatment. To think that only
three cakes of Cuticura Soap and one
and one-half boxes of Cuticura Oint-
ment rid my head of this annoying
trouble made me feel quite contented.
I have now got thick growth of hair
and l am never troubled with any
dandruff or itching of the scalp. There
is no question but that the Cuticura
Remedies cured me. l frequently
recommend them to my customers,
and they think a great deal of them"
