CHILD's FACE ALL RED SPOTS

$50 N. 9Th ST., Terre Haute, Ind
MY little nephew. a boy of four
tears, had a breaking out on his face.
t was little red spots at first, then
ie would rub and scratch and water
blisters would form, and wherever the
water would run another would como
antil his face was covered with them.
He would cry and fret. His mother
got some medicine, but it did not do
any good. He would scream and cry
and say it hurt. We hardly knew him,
his little face was all red spots and
b%listers. So I begged him to let me
put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
The next morning I made a strong
soap suds with Cuticura Soap and
washed his face in the warm suds.
The little blisters burst by pressing
the cloth on them. After I had his
face washed, I put the Cuticura ONT
ment on and in a short time his little
face was all red and dry. I kept using
the Cuticura Soap and putting on the
Cuticura Ointment and his face got as
well and 1t did not leave a scar. He
was entirely cured in about one week

LIFE IN THE PRESENT TENSE

yates received their diplomas hung a
floral motto, "Carpe Diem" Summer
ing such scanty Latin as remains IN
my possession and with the aid of
the man in the next seat, I trans
lated the legend, seize the day." II
tina is what the words lean, and
the dictionary bears out the rendering,
they may well stand not merely for
a commencement decoration, but for
a Whole philosophy of life. Those
youngsters could hardly have taken a
better watchword for all the years
when school is left behind.
We mortals must learn to seize the
day as 1T passes. We should make the
gone beyond recall. Over time yet
to come we have no control. When we
strive to seize yesterday or tomorrow
we strive for What is out of our
reach. If we are going to live at all
We must live now. The river of time
flows on forever, but there is just one
point at which it flows over our w
little mill wheel.
This 1ncontestable but generally dis
regarded fact shuts one up to a mar
row responsibility. We are required

1t is strange. moreover, how many
people spend their allotted span OF
years on this earth getting ready to

child's Fear Of the Dark.

If mothers notice that the brains Of
their little ones conjure up uncanny
sights and thoughts from the shadows
of a room more or less dark, let the
light burn brightly. To force a child
to become accustomed to the darkness
is a grave error, if it's v system
is SO organized that this forcing is
productive of a fright.
The v system Of a child is a
very susceptible organization and the
deleterious impressions made upon 1t

throughout its whole after life. If the
child asks for a light under such cir
cumstances do not refuse it.
