PIMPLES so DISFIGURING
HE STUNNED FRIENDS

Il was bothered with pimples and
blackheads in the worst way for over
four years. My face and arms were
completely covered with them. The
pimples would come out on my face
and tester all up. They would scab
over, and make my face sore, besides
being so disfiguring that l Stunned
my friends. | tried facial cream
balms and benzoine with no effect
"One night asked a friend what
was good for pimples, and he advised
me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment which l did. would wash
my face first with hot water and Cuti-
cura Soap, and then put on some Cuti-
cura Ointment, let 1t stay on five
minutes, and then wash my face again
with the Cuticura Soap. 1t would
draw the blackheads out as nice, and
the pimples, oh say. it was one grand
relief to go among my friends and be
jolly again. After using two cakes of
Cuticura Soap and two boxes of Cuti-
cura Ointment, my face is as smooth
as If there never had been a pimple
on 1t. | cannot speak too highly of
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
/ hope others will profit by them as
much as | have. l know they will
after giving them just one trial"

Titles In ENGLAND.

Forty or fifty years ago few people
in England had titles. There were
only few decorations which entitled
their owners to put the prefix Sir"
before their names We all of us
looked down with lofty contempt upon
the counts and barons that were SO
plentiful in continental countries. Now
we can do so no longer, for probably
there is no other country in the world
where the traffic in titles is SO open
and so indecent as in England. What
the number of our decorations is ! do
not know, and imagine that few do
Every few years some new one is ere

Coffee can marshall good squadron

Linen is Cooler.

Linen sheets, on account of the
tendency to Withstand wrinkling and
rumpling for longer time, are much
cooler for use in the summertime than
are those of muslin.
OF course, the fact that sheets
should never be ironed is legion, but
where one cannot afford linen sheets
tie muslin ones can be gone over
with clean, cold iron. as this will
prove to reduce the rumpling that &C.
companied the desire for cooler spot

Nor was he intoxicated nor beside

Grady was an electrical worker, and
one day he was carried into the pres

both arms literally burned of by a
current. In his pitiful plight he suf-

But when he saw his mother he for

You see, mothers are just bound up
