ECZEMA IN RED BLoTCHES

205 Kanter Ave-, Detroit, Mich
Some time last summer was taken
with eczema. 1t began in my hair
first with red blotches, then scaly,
spreading to my face The blotches
were red on my face, dry and scaly,
not large; on my scalp they were
larger, some scabby. They came on
my hands. The inside of my hands
were all little Jumps as though full of
shot about one-sixteenth of an inch
under the skin. Then they went to
the outside and between and all over
my fingers. 1t also began on the bot
toms of my feet and the calves of my
legs, and itch, oh, my! never had
anything like it and hope I never will
again. The itching was terrible. My
hands got so 1 could scarcely work.
81 tried different eczema ointments
but without results. I also took medi-
cine for 1t but it did no good. I saw
the advertisement fog sample of
Cuticura Ointment and Soap and sent
for one. They did me so much good
bought some more, using them as
per directions, and in about three
weeks I was well again. Cuticura Soap
and Ointment entirely cured me-

QUICK ACTION NEEDED--KEN-
DALI MUST WIN.

Three things more are necessary
now to win in the Kendall enlarge.
ment campaign.
1st. The business men must real
lie the importance Of team work. A
few men Will not be able to see the
1000 people Of Tulsa who should be
asked to subscribe to this fund. Some
men are already working morning
and afternoon. The number is too
small. Remarkable results have been
secured considering the number of
solicitors. The whirlWind campaigns
In other cities have none of them
started off with more encouraging
features, with the exception possibly
of this one thing. More of the bus
mess and professional men are need
ed to give their time. The head
quarters committee yesterday morn
ing was more than pleased when one
Of the younger business men called
up and asked to be enlisted in the
campaign. 1t was but a few minutes
nntil he was hard at work. The COM
mittee back of this movement would
like 100 volunteers this morning at
Q o'clock at 11S e. Second. Come to
headquarters or telephone 290S.
I'd. Another important thing is
that every man solicited make a sub
scription. The plan of payment Is
made so as to accommodate the men
of small means as well as large. The
at the college yesterday
showed what united effort would do.
There were many small subscriptions,
and a few larger ones, but the whole
totaled $1,62O. Every man and wom-
an in Tulsa can afford to get into
this college proposition and no one |
can afford to stay out.
Sd. Make your subscriptions at
once. Those who are making the
'anvass report that very few men
are refusing to subscribe, but that
many are asking them to return for
he subscription. This makes double h
work for the committees, The time
s short, May II, s p. m. The COM
nittees have all found a splendid feel
ng for Kendall and Kendall will win.
