HEAD A MASS OF PIMPLES

Hyattsville, Md.-"My little boy was taken with an itching on the scalp. There was an ashy place on his head about the size of a ten-cent piece, and the hair was falling from this place by the roots. In about ten days all over his head were these ashy spots which looked like ringworm, but were porous-like. The itching and burning made him scratch great deal. His head had gotten so that it was just a mass of mattery little pimples all heaped on each other, and when l took off his night-cap, the hair and flesh came off at the same time. I really thought he would lose his whole scalp. He couldn't sleep for five weeks, it would itch and burn until l thought he would go into convulsions.
 q used different soaps and salves to no satisfaction. Then I decided to use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Finally I noticed he began to sleep all night. I used one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Oint- ment and he was entirely cured. He has better growth of hair now than he had at first" (Signed) Mrs. Ida S. Johnson, Mar. 26, 1912.

And yet we go calmly on year after year per hitting money to be misused while the little children pay the bills in wasted years; and then, when Christ mas comes, the children's festival par excellence, we lift up our eyes to heaven with the prayer of the Phar- isee and rejoice over the Christmas season and it's joy for the children! Can there be any neglect of the com monwealth's interests greater and with results more lasting, than our failure to consider every child an as set to be treasured and and appre- ciated, to be educated to it's utmost possibilities?
 We are all prone, men and women alike, to look mostly at immediate effects. If some one we know goes out to nurse poorer neighbor stricken down with typhoid or any of the other preventable diseases, we exclaim over the lovely charity of the action and praise the kindness of heart which prompted it. That" says the average person, "is true charity and neighborly love-" But if that kindly woman were to give half the time and effort to help along crusade for pure water or for the prevention of consumption or for the cleaning up of a pestilent neighbor- hood. she would probably be called by those immediately around her. if not a muckraker. at least an uncom- fortably active reformer. Yet the prevention of the illness would mean more to the poorer neighbor than all the kindly nursing during it's continu- ance. All we may do in the way of juvenile courts for the young offend CTS is not to be compared with giving them just their bare right to play grounds and good teaching, with plenty of room for all and well paid teachers to work for and with them.
 When we know that the coming of Christmas, the children's festival is going to make all the young box makers in our city slave extra long hours, in order to fill the rush or ders of the season, shall we not be shaken out of our snug rejoicing over this as time of plenty for all?
 Not enough schools for the city's children; not enough food for them. even when they do get into the schools; not enough wages for their parents to enable the mothers to remain in the homes to look after them; not enough money spent by the municipality to give them places to play in safety not enough care for their lives to clean up the neighbor- hoods in which they fairly swarm; not enough Christmas joy to go round to all the city's children-such Is our record ! as We prepare to celebrate with merri- ment and feasting the advent of the Christ Child. Is it record of which we dare be proud? May we offer it as a meet festival in honor of the coming into our world of him who said: Whosoever shall cause one of these little ones that believes on me to stumble, it were better for him If a great millstone were hanged about his neck and he were cast into the sea- "

 We have spared neither time nor money in perfecting BONDS PILLS to meet the needs of those who suffer from Headaches, Biliousness, Consti- patton, Malaria and consequent ills. MERIT was our chief object Not how cheap, but "how good" we could make them.
 The phenomenal sale of BONDS LIVER PILLS is due solely to their MERIT-not to loud and misleading claims of CURING EVERYTHING.

Where Autos Are Barred.

Prince Edward island bars automo piles, not because the islanders can not afford the machines, but because ness of drivers who brought in the first cars. They caused many run aways, and few had tragic endings The legislature at once passed a law barring autos from the island. Some of the leading cities have since en. deavored to have the enactment re- pealed, but the country influence has always been strong enough to over come all such efforts.

A nonconformist clergyman in Man. chester is chuckling over a letter he recently received from the vicar of a certain parish. He had written to the vicar asking for permission to con- duct funeral in the churchyard.
 "He immediately sent me a most courteous note," the nonconformist clergyman says; "but I could not help noticing that it would be possible to give to his word a sinister meaning. The note ran: You will, both to- morrow and at any other time, be most welcome in our churchyard.' '"- London Tit-Bits

from whom the man has gone away, leaving the woman to fight single handed against the wolf. The effort there to keep up heart and to hold together the children in the home, with the handicap of the lower wage which Is meted out to the working woman, seemed even more desperate. The little ones looked hungry; the Christmas tree had shrunk to a tiny spr1g of green; there was little light, and 1t was, oh, so cold, and the tiny babe on the mothers arm was the only soul that smiled. And this at the time of plenty, when all should re- joicei Is the mother at work at a time like this? Yes, in spite of all the world has to tell us of sacred motherhood, the woman with the babe on her arm is not exempt from this harsh demand. and at work she must be, even on this day of days, or risk the dole which Is all that stands between her children and the wolf

 Is the rush of the gift-buying a sign either that there is plenty in the land or that we really love to celebrate the birthday of the Christ? If you think so, listen to the groans of the over burdened father of the family when approached with the request for Christmas moneys; hear what weary women say to each other in passing concerning the unwelcome necessity of exchanging gifts" with so many people "who look for something from you" What of the original spirit of Christmas is there left in this "ex- change" this giving in the expecta- tion of return in kind? Thousands upon thousands of gifts are lex changed" by people who bought them with the money which was really needed for the daily uses of their own households, bought tbem grudgingly in servitude to custom and without particle of real Chr stmas spirit ac- companying the selec lion or the giv- ing.
 But this is not the worst of it; the children, even, have come to know in many families that the gifts to those outside the family circle are given not because of a loving desire to give, but in the spirit represented by that wicked dollar" which Emerson said was given in order to save himself the npleasantness of refusing or the trouble of Investigating some demand made upon him. Which has the bet ter claim upon the time and the purse of the man of small means-those dear to him who actually need com forts, or the richer friend who in no sense needs the thing sent and who in turn will feel obliged to make a gift to keep his record clear? Shame up- on the weakness which forces the exchange" of what should be an out pouring of good feeling or else has absolutely no raison d'etre.
 But is there any righteousness in the feeling of snug comfort in the homes of the well-to-do at the Christ mas season? Is the full table and the joy of ones own household a fair offering in honor of him whose com ing we are supposed to be celebrat- ing?
 While we are pretending to be a Christian community what are we do- ing to the weak and the helpless? Can there be any greater wrong to
