COULD NOT STAND SUFFERING
FROM SKIN ERUPTION

Il have been using Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment for the past
three months and l am glad to say
that they cured me of a most annoy
ing skin eruption. 1t began by my no
ticing red blotches appearing on my
face and scalp. Although they were
rather disfiguring. l did not think any
thing of them until they began to get
scaly and dry and to itch and burn
until l could not stand the suffering.
Then began to use different soap,
thinking that my old kind might be
hurting me. but that didn't seem to do
any good. went to two different doc
tors but neither seemed to relieve me
any. lost many nights sleep in con-
tinual scratching, sometimes scratch
ing till l drew the blood on my face
and head. Then l started in to use
the Cuticura Remedies and in two
months / was entirely relieved Of that
awful pest l am SO delighted over
my cure by Cuticura Remedies that
shall be glad to tell anybody about
It," (Signed) G. NJ Macfarland 221

TO DRAW AND HOLD TRADE

Most Of u.s.. said Mr.. Shovelton, are looking out
for ourselves; think we'll all admit that The
trouble with most of is that don't do this
intelgently; We are always thinking Of ourselves
and our own interest only; and that's where we
slip cog. Let me illustrate:
Il buy fruit to carry home; I've done that for
well, a good many years. and for a long time I
bought around in various places. Then day
some years ago stopped at store where liked
the looks of the fruit and where noticed mo-
ment later. the paper bags were little heavier
than those had been accustomed to find
And when this dealer had put the fruit in one Of
these bags he didn't simply twist the neck of it
and hand 1t over to In form inconvenient
to carry. He folded the top of the bag and
rolled it down to form handle-a grip piece; and
then he tied this bundle around securely with
twine, thus making 1t up altogether into a bundle
that was secure and handy to carry.
"Of course liked all that, and l found that he
always did up his packages putting on some
times a wood and wire handle; but always he made
the package secure and handy for me. He had
some thought for me- and I've been buying of him
ever since and II he should move I'd follow him
l would go out Of my way to trade with him.
The moral is this: Any small storekeeper n
his goods are right, can build up a trade and hold
1t and increase 1t II he has the intelligence and the
human quality that prompts him faithfully to con.
slider not himself alone but a. well the wants and
interests of his customer"
