SKIN TROUBLE ON LEG

GIG w. Grace St., Richmond, Va "I had a running sore on my leg for from three to five years. It burst and blood came from it, then it got red around, and was as large as dollar. It turned white in the middle of the sore, and then began to itch and bleed, After washing it would bleed for hours at a time. Some nights did not sleep through the whole night, I spent eighty dollars on the sore and it didn t get we'll I got worse and fell off to eighty-nine pounds. This went on for four years. I was told it could not get well One of my friends said l ought to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, so I did. After I had used them one month the sore was gone and the itching stopped, and 1 have never had any trouble since. That was five years ago.

Dealers, grocers, jobbers and man4f;ae- .a.f ;ar :, turers all over the country are Joining hands during the week of March 3lst to April 5th in an effort to acGuaint house. wives with the economy and quality or canned foods.
 It is now a we'll known fact that heat is the only preserVative used in preparing these economical foods. The cans are sealed and sterilized at a temperature of 250 degrees, which prevents any contami- nation and keeps the contents fresh and wholesome as the day the tins were filled in the cannerieS.
 National Canned Foods Week. during which dealers and grocers will rnak e canned foods their sales-features, is for the purpose of demc 'trating to house. wives that the cost - living can be cut with such foods and that they may be served in hundreds of delightful ways, and thus served daily without monotony.
 The farmers wife especially finds it ad- vantageous to relieve herself of all the cooking possible and Canned Foods en- able her to do this and at the same time improve the quality of her meals.
 Women in every community should ob- serve National Canned Foods Week by going to the dealers and putting in a sup ply. The saving and general satisfaction in the use of Canned Foods is entirely worth While,-AdV.

 Precious Blessing
To Make IL Healthy and Keep it HealfhyUse q Re-
 HabIe Baby LdxatiVe

In spite of the greatest personal care and the most intelligent attention to diet, babies and children will be- come constipated, and it is fact that constipation and indigestion have wrecked many a young life. To start with a good digestive apparatus is to starr life without handicap.
 But as we cannot ali have perfect working bowels we must do the next best thing and acquire them, or train them to become healthy. This can be done by the use of a laxative-tonic very highly recommended by great many mothers. The remedy is called Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin and has been on the market for two genera tions. It can be bought conveniently at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar bottle, and those who are .slready convinced of it's merits buy &le dollar size.
 Its mildness makes it the ideal medi- icine for children, and it is also very pleasant to the taste. It is sure in its effect and genuinely harmless Very little of it is required and it's frequent use does not cause it to lose it's effect, as is the case with so many other remedies.
 Thousands can testify to it's merits in constipation, indigestion, bilious ness, sick headaches, etc., among them reliable people like Mrs M. Johnson, 752 Dayton St, Kenosha, Wis. She is the mother of little Dorothy Johnson who was always in delicate health un- til her mother gave her Dr. Cald- We1fsSyrup Pepsin Mrs. Johnson says:

JUST A LITTLE TOO TASTY
Vestieate Hereafter Before He Makes a Complaint.

Have you noticed that dead dog in Harris back yard?" inquired Col onel Newton at the breakfast table.
 No, l haven't; I didn't know they had dog" his wife returned.
 No more did I, but there's dead dog lying in their back yard, and it's been there for day or two. If it isn't disposed of by tomorrow l shall notify the health department"
 As the dog was still there, stretched stiff and stark, upon his return at night, the colonel telephoned the health department to come in the morning and remove the body of a dead dog in his neighbors back yard which was becoming offensive
 The men came early, before the col onel had left home, to attend to the matter. He saw them pick up the animal, drop it suddenly and turn away. The colonel, mystified, hur- ried out to see about 1t.
 ''Why didn't you take that dog away" he sputtered
 The officer eyed him coldly. "Aw come off, he said, in a tone of dis. gust, that's a stone dog; piece of bricky-brac; put out there for the ash man."

 There are other girls you think are just as beautiful though"
 You are more beautiful than any other girl I ever saw"
 T suppose there are plenty of girls whom you consider almost as beauti ful as I am."

 In half an hour the little justice mill was full of black men, tall, short, young and old. all grinning knowingly at the defendant.

 suits.

There are more nervous persons made so by. undigested food lying in the stomach than the average indi- vidual would suppose.
 If food remains undigested ia the stomach, it begins to ferment, set up gas and a large portion is thus con- verted into poison.
 That's why imperfectly digested food may, and often does, cause irritation of the nerve and otupor of the mind brain and rves are really poisoned.
 My daughter had complained for some time of distressed feeling in the stomach, after eating, which set me thinking that her diet was not right" writes an anxious and intelli- gent mother.
 "She had been fond of cereals, but AAd never tried Grape-Nuts. From eeading the account of this predigest- ed food, it seemed reasonable to try Hrape-Nuts for her case.
 "The results were really wonderful. The little brain that seemed at times unable to do it's work, took on new life and vigor Every morning, now, before going to school. she eats the crisp little morsels and is now com pletely and entirely well. she seems to have a new lease on life-no more distress in the stomach, nor heaG- ache, but sound and well everyway. , Name given by Postum Co, Battle Creek, Mich Read the book, The Road to Melville" in pkgs.

The young need 70 be taught that although there is sometimes a pleas ure of the senses in committing sin, 1t is inevitably followed by remorse and punishment.
