NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

st have seen the Cuticura Remedies
used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work as a nurse,
many skin disease cases came under
my observation. and in every In
stance, / always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case In
particular was that Of a lady friend
of mine who, when a child, was at
dicted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely, breaking out
at intervals with severer torture She
could not go to school as the disfgure-
ment looked terrible. told her to get
at once a set Of Cuticura Remedies.
After the use Of only one set she was
perfectly well
"a grown lady friend was afflicted
with salt rheum in one Of her thumbs,
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
every fall Of the year. They used to
be so painful size could scarcely wet
her hands until she began TO use the
Cuticura Remedies which cured her.
/ have also seen them cure children
Of ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck and after
treatment with the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and I used the Cuticura ONT
ment. 1t made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas it was quite stiff before
I began to apply the Ointment.
Last May had an ingroWing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side of the nail was edging right
down IN the side Of my toe. / cut
the nail out Of the cavity it made, and
of course applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment to the part affected. It soothed
1t and in less than ten nights 1t was
all healed through constant use of the
Ointment. Ten days ago I had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. / have just
recommended the Cuticura Remedies
to another friend, and she is pleased
with the results and is recovering
nicely. will gladly furnish the
names of the people referred to above
If anybody doubts what / say" (sign-
ed) Mrs. Margaret Hederson, II High

Ing powers of man would probably
work out at about the same proper
ton.
In Figure is shown caterpillar
Of the poplar hawk-moth harnessed to
a metal horse and cart loaded with
plasticine. This particular caterpillar
weighs nineteen grains, and the load
ed cart and horse 465 grains, so that
In round figures It's load was twenty
five times its own weight.
with piece Of rough bark for a
hold it could comfortably drag its load
along a smooth table, the wheels of
the cart, of course, revolving.
THE ten-times power standard Of
man and horse appears Insignificant
beside the greater feat Of this cater
pillar; but, Just as small horse may
pull more than q larger one, SO may
a still smaller insect draw still
larger weight.
In Figure 5 a blowfly is shown pull
ing toy railway truck weighing ITO
grains. The weight of the fly was ex-
actly one grain, SO that its load was
ITO times as heavy as itself
THE next candidate for pulling hon
ors was a bumble-bee. This insect
very ably manipulated both the empty
coach and truck pulled by the ground
beetle, the roof, however, being placed
on the former (Figure u. The truck
was time gradually loaded with p1asti-
cine until an additional weight of 1866
grains had been reached, the total
weight Of coach, truck and load then
being sol grains. The weight of the
bea was exactly two grains, SO that it
was pulling a load slightly over three
hundred times its own weight.
1t may. therefore, be said that the
pulling powers Of a humble-bee are
.proportionately thirty times as great
as those of the horse or man, even
when both the latter are estimated at
their maximum strength"
