FACE ALMOST COVERED WITH
PIMPLES AND BLACKHEADS

Atchison, Kan-"For a number OF
years l suffered very greatly from skin
eruption. My face was very red and
irritated, being almost covered with
pimples and blackheads. The pimples
were scattered over my face. They
were a fine rash with the exception Of
few large pimples on my forehead
and chin. My face burned and looked
red as If exposed to either heat or
cold. 1t was not only unsightly but
very uncomfortable. I tried several
remedies but couldn't get any relief.
I was recommended to use Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment.
"I applied the Cuticura Ointment in
the evening, leaving it for about five
minutes, then washing it off with
Cuticura Soap and hot water. wash
ed with the Cuticura Soap and hot wa
ter also several times during the day.
After about four months of this appli-
cation, my face was cleared Of the
pimples. I still use the Cuticura
Soap" (Signed) Miss Elsie Nelson.

since Confetti Came Into use' the
Saying Has More Meaning Than
at Former Times.

The sexton of fashionable New
York church was sweeping into
large mound the bright purple, red
and yellow discs of confetti which lit
tered the church entrance and steps.
"This month";" he said, II have had
already 35 weddings In my church,
And at every one Of these weddings
paper confetti was thrown at the
bride instead of rice.
'The confetti fashion is very well
come to us sections. When rice was
used our churches were overrun with
mice. The saying, AS poor as a
church mousse was then meaningless.
Why, in my church, where weddings
are so popular, several hundreds OF
mice-fat chaps they were, too
found an ample food supply in the
rice that was sprinkled over the
brides.
Now that rice has been aban-
doned for paper confetti, these mice
have all disappeared. They were
starved out. They couldn't live on

Among these qualms there was none
that pleaded for the desolate Turk or
his minions whose carelessness had
made the theft possible. For ali George
cared, the Moslem might grind his
forehead in the soulless sand and
make the air palpitate with his plants
to Allah. No. The disturbance was
due to the fact that never before had
he been Willingly the purchaser Of
stolen goods. He never tried to gloze
over the subtle distinction between
knowing and suspecting; and If he had
been Variously suspicious in regard to
certain past bargains, conscience had
found no sizeable wedge for her der
murrers. The Yhiordes was confessed.
ly stolen.
He paused, with his hand upon the
door.knob Of his room. If he didn't
keep the rug, it would fall into the
hands of a collector less scrupulous.
To return it to the Pasha at Bagdad
would be pure folly, and thankless. It
was one of the most beautiful weaV'
ings in existence. 1t was as priceless
in its way as any Raphael in the Vati.
can. And he desired it's possession in.
tensely. Why not? Insidious phrase!
Was it not better that the world
should see and learn what wonderful
craft the making Of rare rug had
been, than to allow it to return to the
sordid chamber of harem, to inevit.
able ruin? AS Ryan1e said, what the
deuce was fanatical Turk or Arab
to him?
Against these specious arguments in
favor Of becoming the adventurer's
abettor and accomplice, there was
first the possible stain of blood. The
man agreed that he had come away
from Bagdad in doubt. George did
not like the thought of blood. Still,
he had collected hundred emeralds.
not one of which was without its red
record. Again. If he carried tho rug
home with his other purchases, he
could pull 1t through the customs only
by lying, which was as distssteful to
his mind as being a receiver of stolen
goods.
He had already paid goodly sum
against the purchase; and it was not
likely that a man who was down to
reversing his collars and cuffs would
