DlSFIGURED WITH ECZEMA

Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but few weeks

sores even TO back OF his ears. Tho
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as plmples. his lit
tie face was dlsHgured very much.
We hardly knew what he looked like.
Tho 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

cago, where We resided at that time.
After trying all tho medicine of tho
two doctors without any result, We
read OF the Cutlcura Remedies. and at
once bought tho Cuucura 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 baby's face. Every ono who
saw Gilbert after using tho Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has

the first of April devised and carried
out this pretty party in a most sue
cessful manner. The invitations were
issued on foolscap paper, asking each
girl to come dressed as fool" the
costumes to be made of cotton ma
terial and crepe paper. so the expense
would not be great. but Just as much
fun. Red and green, the TESTERS col
ors, were carried out in every detail
as far as possible. On the red candle
shades funny little donkey heads were
outlined in green. The Ices were
served In the dearest little green pa
per cabbage heads and the fruits
proved to be excellent limitations In
the real fruit shapes and colors, only
they were candy boxes, and the sup
posed chocolate cellars were filled
with creamed chicken. A delicious
cream sauce was passed to put over
them. There were all sorts of anus
ing games, such as marbles for the
girls and a doll dressing contest for
the boys. a whistling contest for the
girls and a sewing contest for the
boys, all having simple prizes for the
best. There were clowns and testers.
The children said 1T was the best
party ever" and so the mother who
planned the affair was amply repaid
for her trouble. l give list of names
of real clowns and testers who once
existed: Archie Armstrong. the famous
