PIMPLEs ON FACE 3 YEARS

II was troubled with acne for three
long years. My face was the only part
affected, but it caused great disfigure-
ment, also suffering and loss of sleep.
At first there appeared red, hard
pimples which later contained white
matter. I suffered great deal caused
by the itching. I was in state of
perplexity when walking the streets
or anywhere before the public.
IT used pills and ether remedies but
they failed completely. / thought of
giving up when nothing would help.
but something told me to try the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment. / sent for
a Cuticura Booklet which / read care
fully. Then I bought some Cuticura
Soap and Ointment and by following
the directions I was relieved in a few
days. I used Cuticura Soap for wash
ing my face, and applied the Cuticura
Ointment morning and evening. This
treatment brought marvellous results
SO I continued with It for few weeks
and was cured completely. I can
truthfully say that the Cuticura REM
edies are not only all, but more than
they claim to be- (Signed) G.. Bau-

OCTOBER BREAKFASTS.

breakfast We will have the luscious

tiplied by eight to have a digestible
and well-cooked food.
For those who possess a f1reless
cooker, the problem is solved. for the
cereal may boil twenty minutes. then
put 1t into the cooker and leave over
night. Reheat, and it is ready for the

cover closely and set away to be re-

cereal with good rich milk makes a
suff1cie meal for the growing child
and will have sufficient staying power
to keep the little ones from getting
hungry before noon.
A bit of bacon is always appetizing
for a cool morning breakfast, and

MISS SUSAN GLASPELL'S DOG
VOLTA the Original Of the Puppies in
Her Story, 1.-THE
vision1nu."

Miss Susan Glaspell, the author, has
a dog, which fact is of more impor-
lance than might at first appear. For
In her new novel, 1.-The Visionary" are
introduced two frolicsome puppies
named Pourquoi and N'est-ce-pas. And
there arg no two more real characters
In the whole book than Why and Amt
1t. to use their names in English form.
1t was Miss Glaspelps own dog. a
Bohemian beast, that inspired the ere
alton Of The Visioning's" twin puppy
clowns. The real dog also has q
French name, VOLTA. When it's owner
bought II, over in Paris, she wanted at
first to name 1t Raspail. both in men,
DRY of the boulevard on which she
lived and as sympathetic cognomen
for sensitive souled Partisan dog.
But her family objected. They could
not see their way clear to shouting.
Come Raspail! Raspail! Raspail!" So
Miss Glaspell compromised on VOLTA.
VOLTA has vagarfes. It is wan
derer. 1t is a cof1ie, and a collie, 1t
evidently thinks, ought to be afield.
Whenever It feels that way, away
VOLTA goes. Fortunately it wears a
collar with Miss Glaspelrs name and
address. She has come to thing moth
ing of such phone message as this:
Hello! Is dis Miss Glaspell! Veil,
dis is der bartender bic Hans Bum
melransen's saloon. No, no, wait! |
didn't got der Wronx phone number.
choost want to say / got here your tog.
Will you come for him?"
Then the author Of 1.-THE Visoining''
has to drop chapter plans and seek
out Herr Bummelransen's place with
sorrow-and a dollar. But were it not
so there might never have been a
N'est-ce-pas and Pourquoi.

COOKERY A FINE ART.

Cookery should be a fine art, but
alas, In msAy kitchens it is thought
OF as drudgery, and put out of the
way as soon as possible. The develop.
ment and progress of cookery has
gone hand in hand with civilization.
The more enlightened and intelligent
people, the more attention they pay
to cookery. 1t is an art as old as his
tory and it's evolution is as interest
ing study as the evolution theory Is
to the scientist.
Did you ever think that more peo-
pie are spending all or part Of their
time cooking than in any other occu.
patton?
The Importance Of food selection
and preparation Is the most important
single factor on which rests the
health. happiness and prosperity OF
mankind
Cookery like all other arts, has its
LAWS Of proportion. or right values, its
laws OF harmony and contrast.
Cookery appeals to the sense OF
taste as music appeals to the hearing
anti as Suns and skies and clouds of
Jdne" appeal to the sight.
An educated sense Of taste is as
highly gratifying as the Indulgence OF
any Of the senses and as necessary
for good digestion and physical as
we'll as mental well being
The simple and fundamental study
OF cookery should be the aim of every
young woman. She should know when
she has given her family a well-bal-
anced meal, how to feed the sick. the
aged as we'll as the infants. She
should know that climate, age. sex
and health should enter into the ar
engagements for the menus.
To serve a meal that is attractive
to the eye, satisfying to the taste and
sufficiently nourishing to the body,
food that Is digestil,le and the cost
of which is kept within reasonable
limits, is an accomplishment that any
young woman may be proud Of at
tanning.
Such accomplishment comes only
by hard work. study and application,
but 1t Is worth the price many times
over.

INTEREST In HORSE
BREEDING AROUSED
Military Glasses Arranged
for Equine Show.

That England and Canada, as well as
the United States, are taking the ques-
ton of remounts for the cavalry serious
ly, and that the salvation of the de-
sirable cavalry horse rests upon the
shoulders of the thoroughbred is strong
ly evidenced by the fact that the Cana
dian breeding bureau has been asked to
provide twenty-three thoroughbred stall
lions for the provinces of Quebec, Nova
Scotia, and New Brunswick.
1t is the opinion of many army officers
that ahe medium Of the horse show is the
best method to be used in arousing the
peoples interest in horsef1esh. Acting on
this theory, the Secretary of War, the
Secretary OF the Navy, the Chief of Staff
the President, and many other officials
are taking an active interest in the Ma
tional Capital Horse Show, to be held
May 4, 5, and 6. A number of classes
