&. WHITE PlMPLES ON HEAD

Ransom. nl.-"The trouble started
on our baby when he was only about
two weeks old. Started like little
white pimples, looked like an old scab
Of blood and matter. His whole head
was covered for q few months, then IL
went to his ear, shoulders, and his
whole body. II seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head, while
on the other parts Of his body It was
more like water coming out OF the
skin. He would scratch until the erup-
ton would be all covered with blood
and gradually spread. The least little
stir or rub would cause the sores to
bleed, spread and itch. Never had a
full nights sleep, restless all night.
THE sores were horrid to look at.
II lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an &c.
zema advertisement In the paper TO
use -, but II did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cutlcura Oint.
ment on thick at bed time and put q
tight hood on so he could not scratch
the sores. Then We washed II clean
with Cuticura Soap and warm water
twice a day. and he was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Sulzber.

Santa Fe Isn't In Sellin g
Mood.

Since the purchase by the Phelps
Dodge interests of the big Chemung
mining properties there has been
lot of talk about the building of an
other railroad to Deming, unless the
Santa Fe could be induced to sell
that portion of its road running
from Deming to Silver City.
Looks as though we will get the
new road alright, as the Santa Fe
don't appear to be in selling mood
Just now. Fact is. it would be
much better business proposition
for the Santa Fe to build a road to
Columbus rather than sell a road to
Silver City.
A Silver City story appearing in
the Enterprise, Friday, says that it
is learned that if the Santa Fe re-
fuses to sell, then the Phelps Dodge
people will Immediately begin the
construction of a railroad from Ty-
rome to Deming, the road now being
graded over the toughest part of the
country lying between the Burros
and Deming.
The consumation of this project is
of vast Importance to this entire
section, and it is certain to give an
immense impetus to the mining bus
mess of Grant county and will con.
tribute largely to the commercial
interests.
1t is by far, one of the most i'm
portant deals that has been broach.
ed in southern New Mexico for
many, many years.
