bedtick at one of his straw stacks
and carrying it into the house, and

has a dependable value. Even its
advertisements are a source of in
terest and profit to the reader. Of
tentimes the advertisements of a

farmer may save enough to pay his

ECZEMA DISFIGURED BABY

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his little
face was dishgured very much. We
hardly knew what he looked like. The
face looked like raw meat. We tied
little bags Of cloth over his hands to
prevent him from scratching. He was
very restless at night, his little face
itched.
I'VE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine Of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and
at once bought Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the
result, and after four weeks, the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little baby's face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura RENE
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.
Albrecht, Box SS3, West Point, Neb.,
Oct. 26, 1910. Although Cuticura Soap
and Ointment are sold by druggists

each, with 32-page book, will be mailed

TO be wrinkled at thirty is indeed a
misfortune, and if the skin is very thin
4 must be admitted that it has less
womise from beautifying treatments
lhan the thicker ones. Thin-skinned
aces are at a disadvantage with every
wlpd that blows, with sunburn, fire
heat. Indigestion, worry, etc.
Thin skins need much more grease
than others, for as a rule they are
vsry dry and sensitive to all external
Influences, and sometimes 1t is neces-
sary to cleanse such faces with grease
instead of with soap and water. This
formula will achieve a very good pur-
pose if it is carefully made from pure
substances:
Almond oil .........4 ounces
Spermaceu .........1 ounce
White wax .........1 ounce
Cucumber juice .....2 ounces
Select eucumbers ripe enough for
hble use; cut and chop them fine;
then extract the juice by squeezing
through a jelly bag. Then measure
the juice and carry the required two
ounces to a druggist, asking him to
supply the rest of the ingredients and
make up the formula.
When cleansing the face with the
cream work the grease into the skin
with the fingers and then wipe off the
residue with very soft cloths. The
soil from the skin will be very visible
on these, and the face can be mas
saged and worked over with the cloths
until It feels as fresh as II washed in
the ordinary way. II 1t seems to shine
