who had rash on its head when II was
real young. Doctor called IL baby rash.
He gave us medicine, but IL did no
good. In a few days the head was a
solid mass, a running sore. IL was
awful. the child cried continually. We
had to hold him and watch him Ito
keep himl from scratching the sore.
His suffering was dreadful. At last we
remembered Cuticura Remedies. We
got dollar bottle Of Cuticura Resol..
vent, a box OF Cuticura Ointment, and
bar Of Cuticura Soap. We gave the
hesolvent as directed, washed the head
with the Cuticura Soap, and applied
the Cuticura Ointment. We had not
used half before the child's head was
clear and free from eczema, and II has
never come back again. His head was
healthy and he had beautiful head OF

very good for the hair. II makes the

A MILITARY PROBLEM.
Caring For the Wounded Under Mod
ern Conditions of Warfare.

Narin9 for the wounded Under Mod
ern Conditions of Warfare.
How TO care for and remove the
wounded under modern conditions of
warfare is a problem that has not yet
been worked out satisfactorily by any
medical stan. largely because there
has been lack OF data on which TO
base theories.
The only war that has furnished
much basis for speculation was the
Russo-Japanese war, and in that the
Russians found that the average loss
was 20 per cent of an army corps, with
a maximum OF 30 per cent I'm any d.
vision Of $4,000 men. This $500 was
made up of 500 killed and 1000
wounded.
1t Is interesting 10 note that S5 per
cent of the casualties came from rifle
bullets, 8 per cent from artillery fire
and per cent from saber and bayonet
wounds. This last shows the fierceness
of the fighting when armies could come
to hand 10 hand conflict. although rifle
fire begins TO be effective when two
miles separate them.
or those wounded nearly half were
able to walk and only 10 to Is per cent
were so badly hurt that they could not
be transported. To provide for the
withdrawal of the rest is beyond the
capacity Of any ordinary ambulance
train. the distance to place of safety
In the rear is so great
European medical STATS are now
planning to make use of automobiles
as tractors, drawing supply wagons At.
ted with suspended stretchers. In this
way one motor could rapidly take away
hundred wounded and return for
more.-Boston Globe.
