This story has been going the

old son OF Director Russell OF the
Boston opera house
One evening during an entr'aote al
the opera house Master Russell was
promenading alone In the foyer. IN
faultless evening dress-a very glass
OF fashion. A Boston matron, seeing
that he was lonely began to make
herself agreeable"
You are Director Ruasells little
boy, aren't your" she asked with
patronizing sweetness.
Master Russell resented this intru'
sion on his dignity, but his courtly
manners were unruded Yes,
madam" he replied, with an elabor.
ate bow.
Where were you born7"
IN France, madam"-slightly more
frigid.
What part?" continued the lady
feeling the conversation well started
"All Of me- madam"
And he bowed and walked away

with that terrible disease, eczema,
when he was just one month old, and
Just thought sure II would kill him.
as It killed our other baby at FIVE
months old II would break out in
pimples and scab over, and he cried
day and night. ! thought that there
was no cure for him at all. His face
would itch and burn so bad that | had
to tie his little hands down SO he could
not scratch his face.
I'VE began at once TO have him
treated until he was seven months old,
and he got worse all the time. | sent
and got a box Of Cuticura Ointment
ard one cake Of Cuticura Soap. I had
not used them a week until | could
see a great change, and they cured
him sound and we'll and never left a
