The reckless and insolent automo. bilist Is hated the world over In the Philippines, where most of the auto. mobilists are foreigners, and where the natives have been used to loiter comfortably in the roads after the fashion of easy going southern coun- tries, the automobiles have long been a grievance, and, failing to secure ef- fective regulation, the F'ilipinos have adopted the practice of rolling big boulders into the roadway as a hint not to turn corners at breakneck speed

 What delayed you this time?'' he growied.
 Seeing the children to bed,' she re- sponded. quietly.
 Whats the nurse for?" snapped the man.
 The nurse is for our convenience yours and mine, especially mine,' she answered. But the boy certainly takes after you. He asked the same kind of fool question just as I was kissing him good night"
 Fool question, eh? Well, what was it?"
 T asked him if he had said his pray CTS. And he said no. And I asked him if he didn't want God to take care of him during the night. He an- swered: Whats the nurse for ?''
 For the remainder of the way the man pondered on this answer.

RASH ALL OVER BABY'S BODY
Itched So He Could Not Sleep

"On July 27, 1909, we left Boston for a trip to England and Ireland, taking baby with us. After being in Ireland a few days nasty rash came out all over his body. We took him to a doc tor who gave us medicine for him. The trouble started in the form of rash and was all over baby's body, head and face, at different times. It irritated, and he would scratch 1t with all his might. The consequence was It developed into sores, and we were afraid it would leave nasty scars on his face.
 When we reached England we took baby to another doctor, who said his condition was due to change of food and climate, and gave more medicine. The rash got no better, and it used to itch and burn at night so bad that the child could not sleep. He was com pletely covered with it at different times. It was at this time that my mother advised US to try Cuticura Soap and Ointment. After using Cuti- cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment for aDout nlne months the places disap- peared. There are not any scars, or other kind of disagreement, and baby is completely cured by the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. We have no fur ther trouble with baby's skin Noth- ing stopped the itching, and allowed baby to sleep but Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment" (Signed) Mrs. Margaret Gum, 29 Burrell St., Rox- bury, Mass, March 12, 1911.
 Although Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment are sold everywhere, sample of each. with 32-page book, will be mailed free on application to Cuti- cura," Dept. L, Boston.
