BURNING, ITCHING ECZEMA

Brilliant, Pa.-"My twelve months
old child had small pimples come out
about the face and neck. l did not
know what it could be; it looked al
most like a rash. In a few days it
turned almost into one scab which
disfigured her whole face and neck.
This of course was a burning, itching
and unpleasant thing for a child. 1t
kept her from her sleep. In rubbing
her face she tore off the scabs which
caused bleeding sores. They told me
1t was eczema.
After about two weeks 1 tried diff
ferent salves and other remedies which
failed to take effect. I saw an offer
of a sample of Cuticura Soap and
Ointment which 1 sent for directly.
AS soon as I received them l started
in using them three times a day. The
first application did a great deal of
good. / purchased some more Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment and two
weeks after using them her skin was
free of all sores; she was completely
cured" (Signed) Mrs. M. H. Kerch-
ner, Apr. II, 1913.
Cuticura Soap and Ointment sold
throughout the world. Sample of each

It was at the New York Horse show,
and an attendant approached the box
OF a yivacious young woman whose
dog had been exercising his vocal tai

-nouncements could not be heard.
Pardon me, ma'am," he said, "but
you'll either have to keep YOU dog
quiet or take him out"
MY dog!" she exclaimed with an
air Of surprise, as she deity kept him
out OF sight behind her chair; "you
must be mistaken. My dog has been
creating no disturbance"
Pardon me, ma'am," the attendant
persisted; "but 1 heard something
bark. If it wasn't your dog, what
was it?"
The young woman favored him with
a sweet smile.
"Oh, she said, you must have

Some people are wise enough to tr,

The Son of Man is come to seek and
to save that which was lost. Recall
the story of Bartimaeus. Bartimaeus
was physically blind; Jesus gave him
sight. Zacchaeus vas morally blind;
Jesus brought him light. This is the
mission of Jesus in a world of imper.
feet vision. He is the Light of the
world. Every disciple can testify to
the absolute and literal truth of the
Masters claim: THE man who follows
me shall certainly not walk in the dark
but shall have the light of life" The
mar who wanders in darkness is lost;
but if he remain lost he has himself
to blame. There is no need to climb
heavenly sleeps to bring the Lord
Christ down, for faith has still its
Olivet of vision. and love its Galilee of
obedient service.

The Niqht.
It was a glorious night.

1t was a glorious night. It
seems SO full Of comfort and of
strength, the night. In it's great pres
ence our small sorrows creep away,
ashamed. The day has been so full
of fret and care, and our hearts have
been SO full Of evil and of bitter
thoughts, and the world has seemed
8 hard and wrong to us. !.
Sometimes our pain is very deep and
real, and we stand before her very
silent, because there is no language
for our pain, only a moan. Nights
heart is full of pity for u.s.; she cannot
ease u aching; she takes u hand
in hers and the world grows very
small and very far away beneath US,
and, borne On her dark wings, we pass
for a moment into a Mightier Pres
ence than her own, and in the wond-
rous light of that great Presence all
human life lies like a book before us,
and we know that pain and sorrow are
but the angels of God.-Jerome K.
Jerome.

searching Investigation, and In every
instance the person making the com
plant failed to furnish proof against
the accused"
At the end of the year there were
on record 3,017 registered pharma-
cists and 159 registered assistant
pharmacists. The report shows that

balance of $219.97 turned over to the

Seizure of Poultry.
Activity in the inspection of poultry
resulted in a number of seizures by
the Board of Health authorities.
Probably there would have been no
great suffering if there had been no
seizures, for fowls so quickly show
the signs of decay that they are re-
jected by even the retail buyers of
small conscience. There should be,
however, a better supervision upon
the part of every dealer, including
even the transportation companies, SO
that there may be no possibility of
wrong. The whole matter of the care
of poultry from the time it leaves the
farm to it's sale to the consumer,
needs more care. There is a neglect
of methods which is not always no
ticed until some warm spell inter-
venes, and thus exposes the lack Of
sanitary regulation by shippers and
dealers. 1t is gratifying to observe
the activity of the Board of Health
and its changes in system for the
better. The board can rely upon the
general public support in all reform
work, however strongly it may be op-
posed by individuals or private and
political alliances.

MOST VITAL WORK
American Bible Society Must Be
Supported in Spreading
the Light.

The demand for Bibles is great. The
demand for Bible work is still great
er. Both of these demands come from
every part of America and from near
ly all other parts of the world. Es-
pecially in such exceptional openings
as China, the Mediterranean regions,
where things are looking up, and in
Central and South America, where a
prospective canal opening Is chang.
ing the face Of things, opportunities
are beyond anything heretofore OBJ
tanning. Churches of the United
States are asked for 100000 to help
to meet these unprecedented condi-
tions.
1t is through the American Bible
society, as representative of these
vast interests, that the demands make
themselves known. This society has
some endowment, but the work put
upon it grows far faster than income
from these endowments and from all
other sources. Bibles are not given
away, save in very needy cases.
Instead, they are sold in thousands
of instances when less experienced
benevolent distribution would be sure
to give them away. Think of going
into Mexico, or into the Balkans, un-
der present conditions and attempt
ing to sell Bibles? Yet that is pre-
cisely what the society does-and sue
ceeds, though always without purpose
of profit and almost always at a loss.
1t does not ask gifts a V to do things
1t cannot do without them.
1t takes $250,000 a year at the New
York Bible house alone to manufac-
ture Bibles and to purchase such as
cannot be had without expenditure of
money. Almost every foot of Ameri-
can territory Is covered by home Bible
work, and $13S,000 a year is needed
to do it. In foreign agencies $317, 900
more must be spent. Is the question
asked. What for?"
The missionary societies depend
very largely upon the Bible society
for Bibles to use in their work. This
fact is often overlooked by supporters
of mission work. The cost of making
Bibles is only a part. TRANSACTIONS
must be made and revised. It is a
vast burden.
America has built up, through a
hundred years of helping to meet
these Bible needs, a vast system of
Bible work hat extends throughout
almost all the world. America has
come to be looked on as one of two
great sources of Bible supply. Amer
lea cannot stop. 1t must maintain
its splendid reputation.
The total invested funds of the
American Bible society amount to ST.
$4,000, and it brings in about $685.
600 a year. Income from sales of
Bibles and other sources carry this
sum up to 1890, 900 a year. But not
less than $S25,000 a year must be
had There are legacies, but these
are uncertain. The churches must be
looked to for $26S,OOO a year, but last
year they gave only $66.64O.
Great as these sums are, they ought

who has designed a lifeboat tackle
which cannot twist or become fouled.
Each of the lower blocks is fitted
with a cap covering the upper half of
the block, and through this the ropes
are passed, as well as through the
other sheave holes of the block. The
effect is to prevent the block turning
by the action of the rope, as some
times happens, the tendency to twist
being taken care of by a rod which ex-
tends from one of the blocks to the
other, holding the w in the same

GOOD REASONS why
you should have your car
overhauled now and worn
parts replaced.
FIRST: The garage man
can give you better service
and you can spare the
car better now than later.
No matter whether you are
going to keep the car, or
sell or trade it in on a new
one-it will pay you well
to have it thoroughly over
hauled, worn parts replaced
by new ones and body re-
painted.
SECONDS: We are able to
furnish replacement parts
for all models of above
makes of cars within 48
hours from receipt of or
der. Have concentrated
this branch of the business
at Newcastle, Ind. (center
of population of the U. S.
Here we have a S1,750.OOO
investment in plant and
stock. $4,000 separate bins
of parts.
THIRD: And perhaps the
best reason why you should
secure your requirements
now-we must increase
prices 20% January 1st,
when the new parts price
lists will be off the presses.
NOW NOTE THIS-Never
before in the history of this
industry has a new con-
Germ, having bought the
plants and assets of a bank
rupt one, taken upon itself
the obligation of furnishing
replacement parts for the
cars it never made.
