 bury Mother.

Awakened by the cries of her infant son. Mrs. Samuel Berger of BIO North Main street, Waterbury, rushed to the crib standing near her bed and found large rat eating at one of her childs hands. The infants hands and clothes were covered with blood and the rat had eaten a hole into the in- dex finger, penetrating to the bone, and the marks of it's teeth were plain ly visible.
 Mrs. Berger's screams aroused her husband, and not till then did the rat jump out of the crib and scamper across the floor. Dr. George A. Leon- ard was summoned and then the full extent of the injuries was learned. The knuckle had been gnawed by the rat and there were scratches and bites all over the hand. The wounds were carefully dressed, but it is feared blood poisoning may set in.
 The child was put to bed early the night before. Mrs Berger was arous- ed by the infants sobs at 5.3O in the morning. believing the child was only frightened, but when the screams grew louder she became alarmed and found the child conVuIsed with pain, rutileIy trying to draw it's hand from under the light covering
 When the coverlet was withdrawn the rat was still gnawing away It was as large as fair sized kitten and was streaked with blood

BREED THEATER.

The Swiss Guide. one of the most beautiful dramatic scenic pictures ever offered tho public of Norwich, is the feature picture at the Breed theater for the first part of this week, and before the multitudes of people yes terday unfolded it's peculiarly inter- ssting plot. Without doubt, the scen- cry is unequalled ins any American production, being taken in the Cana dian Alps, showing the great trail 1000 feet above sea level.
 The Biograph stories are, as usual, very popular, and the clever detective in the melodramatic number is the life of the picture while the Vita graph number is singularly beautiful in conception and execution.

CHlLD'S HEAD
A MASS OF HUM0R

Z :':ink :sie .3uNseusa. Remedies are
the best remedies for eczema l have
ever heard of. My mother had child
who had rash on its head when 1t
was real young. Doctor called it baby
rash. He gave us medicine, but 1t did
no good. In few days the head was
a solid mass, a running sore. 1t was
awful; the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him to
keep him from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last
we remembered Cuticura Remedies.
We got dollar bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, box of Cuticu1a Ointment,
and bar of Cuticura Soap. We gave
the Resolvent as directed. washed the
head with the Cuticura Soap, and ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment. We had
not used half before the child's head
was clear and free from eczema, and
1t has never come back again. His
head was healthy and he had beau.
tiful head of hair. think the Cut'
cura Ointment very good for the hair
1t makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis
Lund, Plain City, Utah. Sept. 19, 1910
Although Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment are sold everywhere. sample
of each, with 32-page book, will be
