Wall From French Jurymen.

In France, as well as in England,
jurymen have their grievances. The
latest can easily be remedied. The
French minister of justice has re-
ceived an address signed by citizens
figuring on the Paris jury lists. pro-
testing against the bare appearance
of the courts where they have to sit.
They point out that if-tired Of look
ing Vat the judges, counsel, witnesses
and other parties to a suit-they turn
their eyes upon the walls, nothing but
an inartistic paper meets their gaze.
In order to relieve this deadly mo-
notony they beg that a print of Prud-
hons famous picture, Justice in Pur-
suit of Crime" may be hung in each
court.

WATERY BLlSTERs ON FACE

Smithville, Ind.7-"Six months ago
our baby girl, one year old, had few
red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and fiery red
color. The pimples on the child's face
were at first small watery blisters, just
small blotch on the skin. She kept
scratching at this until In a few days
her whole cheeks were fiery red color
and instead of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and scaly looking
and seemed to itch and burn very
much.
I'VE used a number of remedies
which seemed to give relief for short
time then leave her face worse than
ever. Finally we got a cake Of Cuti-
cura Soap and a box Of Cuticura Oint-
ment. | washed the child's face with
very warm water and Cuticura Soap,
then applied the Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about
three times a day the itching and
burning seemed entirely gone in two
days time Inside Of two weeks time
her face seemed we'll. That was eight
months ago and there has been no re-
turn of the trouble" (Signed) Mrs.
A. K. Wooden, Nov. 4, 1912.
