ITCHING, BURNING ECZEMA

SIT S. Wolfe ST., Baltimore, Md
"My trouble was caused by a severe
sprained ankle; the bruised. blood not
having been drawn off caused a skin
affection which the doctors pro-
nounced eczema. 1t first started with
an itching and burning. with very dry
skin. Constant scratching, especially
during the night finally broke the
skin, and during the day the watery
fluid that came from it would dry and
peel off like fish scales My stocking
would stick to my ankle as if it were
glued. l also had it on my fingers.
Il was treated. without getting any
benefit. I began using Cuticura Soap
and Ointment as directed and then ap-
piled the Cuticura Ointment and bound
the ankle with a soft bandage, after
bathing it with Cuticura Soap They
cured me in about two months"

Liquid Measure.

1t was the time of the singing lesson
at the local council school, and the
teacher was explaining to the young
hopefuls that If a treble and alto"
a tenor" and bass" sung together,
their united efforts would constitute
a quartet
There seemed no trouble about that,
and the teacher thought the class was
getting on very nicely.
Now, Jimmy, leave off pinching
your brothers leg and listen to me"
said she. IF bass and tenor sang to-

For non-committal brevity of speech,

HIS MIND UP IN THE CLOUDS
Professor Imagined Appeal Was From
Fldo, and the Situation Became
Embarrassing.

A great lover Of animals, Professor
Dryasdust was much given to having
his pet dog sitting beside him at meal
times eating tidbits from his own lit
tie plate.
The other evening he was at dinner
party, and his partner was a very
great lady, who was proud of her
title.
But the professor paid absolutely no
attention to her. His mind had
switched off on to some abstruse point
and he was lost to the world over the
problem.
The duchess did not approve Of this,
and presently, to attract his attention,
she pulled him gently by the sleeve.
Then the professor woke up. Grab
biEg half-picked chicken bone from
his plate, he thrust it under her
startled nose.
Don't bother just now, Fido!" he
said CURLY. Here, take this and 60
and eat it on the mat, like good dog
