WHITE PIMPLEs ON HEAD

Ransom, Ill-"The trouble started

two weeks old. Started like little
white pimples, looked like an old scab
Of blood and matter. His whole head
was covered for few months, then 1t
went ito his ear. shoulders. and his
whole body. 1t seemed to come out
thick and sticky on his head. while
on the other parts Of his body 1t was
more like water coming out Of the
skin. He would scratch until the erup-
tion would be all covered with blood
and gradually spread. The least little
stir or rub would cause the sores to
bleed. spread and itch. Never had .
full nights sleep, restless all night
'"The sores were horrid to look at.
1t lasted until he was about two and a
half years old. Then we saw an &C.
zema advertisement in the paper to
use --, but 1t did no good. Then
we used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment. We put the Cuticura Oint-
ment on thick at bed time and put q

the sores. Then we washed 1t clean

The Smile.

The girl who smiles too much makes
as great . mistake as she who smiles
too little. for though she may be only
actuated by an honest desire to
please. she lays herself open to the
charge of insincerity. A smile can
transform plain face into loyeliness.
but it only does this when 1t is the
outcome Of some special emotion, aud
not a mere aimless parting OF the lips.
Smiling to order" or on any and
every occasion. is fatal to charm, and
should be carefully avoided.
