.DlsFlGURED WITH ECZEMA

seOur 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 lit
tie face was disfgured 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 the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the re-
suit. and after four weeks the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little bahy's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has q
head Of hair which is a pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cutieura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. II.

Public School Notes.

There will be no school on Friday OF
this week.
The state is divided into as many
districts as there are normal schools.
each normal school being the center of
its district.
The Platteville district, consisting of
about forty high schools III Crawford,
Riehland Grant, Lafayette, Green,
Iowa and Sank counties, is divided into
seven leagues. Mineral Point is in
league No. Z, Only three schools in
our league took part in the contest at
Darlington Monroe. Darlington and
Mineral Point.
Unless five schools take part in the
league contest, only the ones taking
first place in both the boys and girls
contests can speak at the district con-
test. AS we won first place at Oar
lington in each contest, we will be rep
resented at Platteville Thursday even
ing by Ulmont Healy in the contest for
boys and on Friday evening by Henrietta
Kane in the same for girls.
On Friday afternoon the annual track
and field meet will be held at Platte
vile. Last year we won the meet and
have silver cup in the high school
that looks somewhat lonesome. We
are going after another cup this year
as two viii look better than one.
Saturday forenoon we play base ball
with the Platteville normal, at that
city and in the afternoon we have
game with the high school of that place
In the meantime we are obliged to keep
up our studies just as if nothing I'M
usual was going on.
Perhaps we may be pardoned for
saying that this is our busy week.
Nothing has been done within recent
years that has improved the quality Of
high school work as rhetoricals and
athletics have done, as they are con-
Quoted in Southwestern Wisconsin.
Miss Grace James, of Linden, who
will represent league No. in the girls
contest Friday evening, visited the high
school the first part of the week.
Blanchardville high school defeated
US in the game Saturday by small
score to 6. We have no ex-
cuse to offer, but will try to see that
nothing of the kind happens again.
