no manuscripts existed in this city OF merchants
Herculaneum in the time OF its prosperity oc-
cupied to Rome somewhat the position which a
suburban town of wealth in the vicinity Oh
great city 1lls today. Well-to-do cltzens OIL
Rome resorted thither for the benefit OF their
health as its air was believed to be particularly
exhlarating Rest and quiet from the disturbing
Influences Of the great center were found In the
luxurious villas which were situated In ana
around Herculaneum. There seems to have been
no industry In the town except fishing, and the
character of the ruins suggests that, ike such
prosperous suburban retreat Of today. the settle
ment rejoiced In all that wealth and care could
afford of beauty and convenience.
Agrippna the elder, according to Seneca, was
the owner Of one OF the most gorgeous OF the
villas in Hercuaneum which. 1t is believed, was
destroyed by the Emperor Caligula because his
mother had once been imprisoned therein. An
other splendid villa the Casa del Papiri. The
Nonii of Nuceria also among the aristocrats
of the time who had villas in the charming little
town.
According to Professor Hughes. "Herculaneum
is buried not under lava rarely under natural
cement but generally under locally consolidated
tun (tuff is the word most commonly used when
the ash is far consolidated to break into
lumps). Seeing that we have reason to believe
that at least as much ash has fallen since the
first century A. D. as fell in 10 A. D., the first
thing to do Is to endeavor to distinguish between
the successive eruptions. II could find at the
bottom Of layer OF ash Just enough pottery or
other relics to enable to identify them as be-
longing to the seventeenth century earlier.
that line should be traced with the greatest care
In this way might feel way back into the
remote past and perhaps somewhere make out
upon satisfactory evidence how deep some part
OF Herculaneum buried In the eruption OF
79 A. D."

RINGWORM ON SHOULDER

Box 1873, Downey, Cal.-"My little
boy OF eight years had what they
called ringworm on his shoulder and
the back OF his neck. 1t started in a
small pimple like a blister and kept
getting larger till 1t was the size Of a
dollar. One place was as large as
three silver dollars. They were round
and a mass Of watery blisters. Wher-
ever the water would touch 1t would
cause another blister, commencing an
other sore and so on. 1t was very
red and angry and would itch and
burn so badly that he could not sleep
or, in fact. sit still at times. He
would cry when I would touch it.
When he would rub or scratch It it
would look like chopped meat. His
clothing irritated it. l tried many
remedies, but it kept spreading and
itching. This was all before l used
Cuticura Soap and Ointment on it.
After the first treatment with Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment he was much
relieved, and they cured him in one
month.
"My husband is plumber and his
hands get scratched and cut, which
means sores II not treated, so he
washes with Cuticura Soap and puts

night, and that keeps them fine"
