HEAD A MASS OF PlMPLES

Hyattsville, Md.-"My little boy was
taken with an itching on the scalp.
There was an ashy place on his head
about the size of ten-cent piece. and
the hair was falling from this place
by the roots. In about ten days all
over his head were these ashy spots
which looked like ringworm, but were
porous-like. The itching and burning
made him scratch great deal. His
head had gotten so that it was just
mass of mattery little pimples all
heaped on each other and when took
OF his night-cap the hair and flesh
came off at the same time. l really
thought he would lose his whole scalp.
He couldn't sleep for five weeks, It
would itch and burn until | thought
he would go into convulsions.
II used different soaps and salves
to no satisfaction. Then | decided to
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
Finally noticed he began to sleep all
night. used one cake or Cuticura
Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint-
ment and he was entirely cured. He
has a better growth of hair now than
he had at first" (Signed) Mrs. Ida

ONE WAY OF SAVING
 A bAbY-FREE TO TRY


 The mother does not live who would not do all in her power to keep her child healthy, but often she does not know how. So when a doctor of standing points the way all can afford to listen.
 It is an accepted fact that nine out of ten of the troubles of infants and children is intestinal. You notice 1t by the fact that the child is consti- pated, it belches, is peevish and cries Don't give a remedy that contains an opiate. because the child will get in the habit of needing 1t, and don't be- come alarmed and run at once for doctor.
 Try scientific laxative first. Give small dose of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. the remedy that is intended
