Eczema on Leg, Re.inol Cured Him


BALTIMORE, MD.--.I had weeping
eczema from my ankle to my knee. 1t
was in an aggravated form, like ring
worms, with red veins running from one
circle to another all over the limb.
1T was not only unpleasant to look
at, but the terrible itching and burning
was dreadful l tried several remedies
and got no relief.
"Finally I tried Resinol Ointment
and Resinol Soap. and, to my. surprise,
after the first APPLICATION | noticed an
improvement Soon the itching and
burning eased off, and in about six
weeks my limb was clear of the trouble.

termIne to spare yourself more In num-
Der of ways during the coming year than
YOU have in the one that Is Just closing.
Have YOU ever noticed that the prevailing
tendency OF New Years resolutions Is to-
ward something hard or unpleasant to do?
You make up your mind to be more par
ticuIar about keeping your house swept
and scrubbed. TO deny yourself luxuries to
which your heart clings for the sake OF
some good object. TO get up earlier in the
morning or TO do heavy reading. Rarely,
IL ever, does any one resolve TO stop doing
dificult things and do something agree

clines Us to think that unless a course is
rather unpleasant there Is no genuine virtue

Try to break away for a moment from this
point of view and consider the duty TO your
self and others OF resolving on little self
indulgence. Decide that one OF your New
Year reforms will be that OF lying down for
ten or fifteen minutes every day. Convince
yourself that you are walkingin the path OF
righteousness when you treat yourself to
an occasional outing. when you bestow
more attention upon your clothes and your
own pleasure, when you lay ASIDE for a

have no chance to develop the muscles that

As 1t is absolutely necessary for me to do
something to help OUT get up luncheons

me Twenty cents is the price paid for
each luncheon, and the girls are always
hungry, so they require a substantial meal.
I need help especially in the matter of in
expensive desserts, soups, and salads.
Please bear in mind that the food must be
cheap, yet as good as possible. Can you
make any helpful suggestions?
MRS. V. M"
In this day OF high prices you set your
self rather difficult task when you try to
provide a good and substantial luncheon
for the price you name. take it for
granted that you have certain luncheons
planned for certain days, as in that way
you can prepare a quantity of material at
one time, thus saving more money than IL
you were to supply a number Of individual
dishes.
Soups are always economical and, II well
made, nourishing. II you keep on hand
good pot OF stock you may vary the soup
with each passing day adding vegetables,
tomatoes, beans, etc, TO suit your taste.
For instance IL you have a strong, cleared
stock on hand, you may put into 1t on Mon
day soup green's, cut into dice of uniform
size, boiling these until tender, and serv-
ing some Of the vegetables with each bowl
OF soup. The following day you may strain
out any bits Of vegetables that remain,
adding to the stock canned tomatoes. and
seasoning and boiling up once. Then rub
soup and tomatoes through the colander.
return TO the fire, add some boiled rice,
and, II you wish thick soup, thicken with
Drowned flour wet with cold water. An,
other cay you may add onions. and when
these are stewed until soft strain them out
and thicken the soup with -four wet with
cold milk, adding enough milk to make the
soup light in color. Or If a brown onion
soup is preferred, thicken with Drowned
-four, mince the onions and return to the
soup. A cheap and good broth may be
made of small beans such as are used for
baking. Soak these over night, boil 10 a
soft mass. season well, add little kitchen
bouquet, and II the PURGE is too thin,
thicl1en as desired. 1 have mentioned only a
few Of the many nourishing broths you
may serve.
Salads are rather expensive on account Of
the oil that is as rule used in the dressing.
But, oddly enough, my mail today contains
