CHILD's HEAD
4 MASS OF HUMOR

II think the Cuticura remedies are
the best remedies for eczema have
ever heard of. My mother had a child
who had rash on it's 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
q solid mass, 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, a box of Cuticura 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 a beau
tiful head of hair. I think the Cuti-
cura Ointment very good for the hair.
1t makes the hair grow and prevents
falling hair" (Signed) Mrs. Francis

ment are sold everywhere, sample

In dispute at Lake Pepin and later
go to Duluth and look over the ter
ritory in controversy at st. Louis
river. The prospects are that the
committees Of the two states will
reach an amicable agreement. If an
agreement is reached, the boundary
suit now pending in the United States
Supreme court at Washington will
be dropped. Wisconsin claims that
it's boundary runs to the middle OF
the main channel of Lake Pepin and
to the middle of the stream in st.
Louis river. Minnesota claims to the
middle of Lake Pepin and to the
middle of the main channel in the
st. Louis river, as it was before be-
ing diverted by river improvements.
Fishery rights are the principal mat
tiers involved in the Lake Pepin sit
uation. Revenues from taxation of

authorities 1t sometimes affects the
comb and beak also. The mites exca-

This very common disease is easily
recognized by the enlarged roughened
appearance 1t gives the foot and
shank. The disease is present in most
flocks unless especial care has been
taken to exclude it. 1t is slightly con-
tagious. but usually only few birds
in a flock appear to be infected.
