BABY'S TERRIBLE SUFFERING

When my baby was six months old.
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to itch and
burn, and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pimples which
would open and run, making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell off. and the sores were over
the entire body. causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself, Great scabs
would come off when l removed hts
shirt.
We tried a great many remedies.
but nothing would help him, till a
friend induced me to try the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. used the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment but short
time before l could see that he was
improving. and In six weeks time he
was entirely cured. He had suffered
about six weeks before we tried the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things, and
doctors, too. l think the Cuticura Rem
edies will do all that is claimed for
them, and great deal more"

An inexpensive. novel and pretty

are the rather large. oyal-shaped ones

half another The upper part to the
desired depth is cut of, guided by the
small bamboo bands which stiffen and
fold it. and is neatly trimmed off Al

consists of three wires, equidistant
around the top. and bent SO as to
hang over the top Of the lamp chin

support fitting the top and attached to

CHARACTER SHOWN BY DRESS
Value, as Setting for the Personality,
.- Varies With the Moods Of
the Wearer.

No woman can afford to be indiffer-
ent In the matter of costume. and all
women are more or less Influenced by
what they wear.
One damsel swaggers about in mas
culine effects, heavy boots, stiff collar,
tailored coat. ETC.. another is sweetly
feminine in fluffy ruffies, picture hat,
chiffons. laces and parasol. and the
lndiffereice to appearances Is almost
invariably exactly what she looks
straight-laced, prim. severe, cold, In
capable of any flight of fancy. lacking
the power of sympathy, and with no
intricate uncertainties to soften the
hardness of her character.
Equally true is the fact that a gown
which Is extremely becoming today is
very mediocre tomorrow. Its value as
a setting for the personality varies
with the moods of the wearer, When
encouragement. depression and gen.
eral feeling of dullness enyelops one
In a gray cloud the tendencj Is to don
black, a gray or dull brown gown.
Such a choice is great mistake, tend
ing to accentuate the gloom about the
wearer Crush such choice under
foot anu choose instead the liveliest
dress in your wardrobe. Something
with red, brilliant ereen. bright blue
or any vivid tone.

MANY Shades of Red.

The new combination In smart after
noon and evening gowns is tomato
red, with the purple of Hamburg
grapes. This red is one of the new
shades of the fashionable color and is
lovely one. indeed.
Among its rivals are raspberry. wa
ter melon, fame and geranium. Among
the puppies are grape. night. royal.
Vatican or cardinal purple and anne
thyst purple.
1t is not new fashion to mingle pur-
pie and red, but for a while 1t went
out; now 1t seems to have returned
through the insisting influence OF Paul
Poiret. who has never ceased to love
and use it. SO that II has become more
credited to his name than to any 9TH

HOUSEHOLD Rurs.

The housekeeping nut that is deep
snough to engulf many an otherwise
successful household, Is monotony In
menu making The same old thing In
the same old way is repeated until
appetite is gone and one loses all In
terest In food. When the housekeeper
is mother, cook, nurse and general
manager. there is still greater need
to meet conditions with trained
mind.
II the system has never been tired.
one can hardly realize what a help to
make things run smooth. well organ
lzed plans can be.
In convenient place, on a door or
wall, place a tabulated list Of dishes.
those which are liked by the family.

Of ten or dozen ways that 1t may be
served as vegetable, dessert and
IN combination with other foods. Pre-
pare these dishes In turn, and It will
not be necessary to inflict them often
er than once In Ave or six weeks. and
by that time they will have forgotten
saS Nioh anu ~ Will bcChh ihC hO"'
This plan can be followed successful
ly with all the foods, adding to the
list, as one surely will when you have
such chart before you for inspira-
ton.
Potatoes are food that is on our
table, often twice and many times
three times a day. Learn and serve a
new dish of potatoes each week. and
you will still have hundred aud fifty
new ways still to learn
Meats are our most expensive foods,
and they may be pieced out In many
dishes making just as appetizing and
nourishing dishes at much less ex'
pense.
The addition of dumplings. vegeta'
bles and cereals to stews, broths. and
soups makes the meat favor go fur

Long had he wooed the pretty maid.
But hope was foreign to his heart,
For 1t was plain that she but played
With him with all coquette's art
Yet he would boast how other girls
Had wept because he could not see
The beauties of their cheeks and curls,
Because he went on. fancy free.
But this one was indeed The One.
Yet. strange to say. although she smiled
Whenever they met. she smiled with fun.
And with a banter deep though mild,
He begged. he pleaded for glance
To give his love place to hold.
To indicate he had chance,
But to his pleadings she was cold.
At last he called on her once more.
And o. his heart leaped in surprise,
For all the chilliness of yore
Was fully vanished from her eyes;
He murmured through the little speech
That for this moment he had planned
She did not nutter from his reach;
She let him hold her white. white handl
With bubbling Joy his blood ran swift,
He dropped his arm about her waist;
Her eyelids she did not uplift.
Swift bushes DER her temples raced:
Her golden hair but touched his cheek
AS he so gladly bent above
And, filled with thoughts he could not
speak,
Tried. stammering. to tell his love.
She looked up then, into his face.
Her lips curved sweetly In a smile
Such as bold Antony could trace
On Cleopatra's lips the while
He whispered to her meath the moon
That dripped upon the desert sands
The silver light, as falls a boon
From out a goddess mystic hands.
But we disgress. Our hero gazed
And saw the heroine SO fair,
With lips like red rose petals raised,
And waiting waiting waiting there!
Alas! Also alackaday!
Her manner suddenly grew cool.
And as she swiftly turned away
Her red lips pouted: april fool"
