ECZEMA DIsFIGURED BABY

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but a few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his little
face was %disigdred very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags Of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
1--WE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.

Nip is not SO many centuries

thorn at Glastonbury which
blossomed every Christmas, and, SO

St. Joseph of Arimathea. having come
as apostle to Britain, and, landing at
Glastonbury, had stuck his staff of dry
hawthorn into the soil, commanding it
to put forth leaves and blossoms. This
the staff straightway did, and thereby
was the king converted to the Chris
tian faith, the faith which preached
life from death.
The holy thorn of Glastonbury flour

civil wars. During those 1t was up
