BABY'S HAIR ALL CAME OUT

When my first baby was six months
old he broke out on his head with little
bumps. They would dry up and leave
scale. Then 1t would break out
again and 1t spread all over his head.
All the hair came out and his head
was scaly all over. Then his face
broke out all over in red bumps and
II Kept spreading until 1t was on his
hands and arms. 1 bought several
boxes OF ointment, gave him blood
medicine, and had two doctors to treat

and got a bottle Of Cuticura Resolvept,
cake of Cuticura Soap and a box OF
Cuticura Ointment In three days
after using them he began to i'm
prove. He began to take long maps
and to stop scratching his head. After
taking two bottles OF Resolvent. TWO
boxes Of Ointment and three cakes OF
Soap he was sound and we'll, and never
had any breaking out of any kind. His
hair came out In little curls all over
his head. I don't think anything else
would have cured him except Cuti-
cura.
Il have bought Cuticura Ointment
and Cuticura Soap several times since

 cordng to figures given out today by County Treasurer Stone the deficit in county revenues since the passage oi the prohibition bill has approximated $30,00O per annum and as a conse- quence of this condition of affairs it is announced that the county will have to begin the issuance of warrants for running expenses within the next 1C days.

Without such legislation a large increase in taxation is the only remedy in sight
