tuberculosis.

Only four states, MIsslss' kpi, Ne
vada. Utah and Wyoming, have no
beds whatever in special hospitals or
wards for consumptives. Eight years
ago when the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tubercu-
losis was organized, there were 20
states in which no hospital or sanito-
rum provision for consumptives exist
ed, and the entire number Of beds In
the United States was only 10000.
while these figures would indicate
a remarkable growth in anti-tubercu-
losis activity" says DR.. Livingston
Farrand, executive secretary Of the
National association, in commenting
bon the subject, there are still prac-
tically ten INDECENT consumptives for
every one of the 10000 beds. including
those for pay patients In other words.
We have from 100000 to 100000 con-
sumptives in this country too poor to
provide hospital care for themselves.

SKIN ERUPTION ON CHEEK 1

Kingsley, Mich.-"Last May my
fhirteenmonths-old baby had a sore
come on her cheek. It started in four
or FIVE small pimples and in two or
three hours time spread to the size of
silver dollar It spread to her eye.
Then water would run from the pim-
pies and wherever that touched 1t caus-
ed more sores until nearly all one
cheek and up her nostrils were one
solid sore. She was very fretful. She
certainly was terrible looking child,
and nothing seemed to be of any use.
Then got some Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. She tried to rub
of everything We put on so that we
would sit and hold her hands for two
hours at a time. trying to give the
medicine q chance to help her, but
after washed 1t with Cuticura Soap

she did not try to rub them of. 1t
