Ship sarnaeles.

One OF the worst nuisances that
sailors have to put up with Is bar
nacles. Barnacles abound In almost
al seas. attaching themselves In
great numbers to logs Of wood. the
bottoms Of ships and other floating
materials.
Tho common or ship barnacle Is a
species Of shellfsh. It 10 distin-
guishsd by q long. flexible stalk that
II provided with muscles by means Of
which the creature elongate or
contract itself 1t will. Upon the end
Of the stalk there are hve shelly
valves, the principal organs Of the anil
NAL being closed within. These valves
open and close to admit Of the bar
,nacle spreading out and drawing back
it, net an apparatus by which 1t OBJ
tains food.
Ship barnacles congregats IN such
numbers on ships that the latter's
sailing powers are seriously impaired.
The creatures grow rapidly. at the
same time undergoing such wonderful
transformation that they r objects
Of interesting study.

WHITE PIMPLEs on HEAD

Ransom, Ill.-"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 a few months, then 1t
went to his ear, shoulders, and his
whole body. It seemed to como 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.
It lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an &C.
zema advertisement in the paper to
use -, but it did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura ONT
ment on thick at bed time and put a
tight hood on so he could not scratch
the sores. Then we washed 1t clean
with Cuticura Soap and warm water
twice a day, and he was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. E. F. Sulzber-
ger, Dec. 80, 1911.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold
throughout the world. Sample of each
free, with 32-p. Skin Book. Address

TubercuIosi. Day In October.

Churches and religious societies, to
the number of at least 100000, will
be urged to give special attention to
the prevention of tuberculosis on Sun
day, October 81, or on some day dur
ing the week preceding or the week
following that date. This season has
been set apart and designated as the
Third National tuberculosis Day by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention Of tuberculosis. Tu-
berculosis Day was originally SET on
April %, but was postponed because
of a conflict with Conservation Sun
day Of the Men and Religion Forward
movement, which was held on that
date. The observance Of tuberculosis
Day in the fall of the yea will be uti-
lized by anti-tuberculosis workers not
only for the general education of
churchgoers on consumption, but also
for the purpose Of interesting them in
the sale of Red Cross Christmas
Seals.
