BREAKING OUT ON LEG

Hilltop. Kan.-"About two years ago
began to notice a breaking out on my
leg. At first it was very small but
soon it began to spread until it formed
large blotches. The itching was ter
rible and almost constant. Many
nights could not sleep at all. After
scratching it to relieve the itching It
would burn so dreadfully that I
thought could not stand it. For near
ly year tried all kinds of salves
and ointment, but found no relief.
Some salves seemed to make it worse
until there were ugly sores, which
would break open and run.
One day saw an advertisement of
Cuticura Remedies. l got sample of
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura ONT

with the Cuticura Soap, then applying

ADULTERATED CLOTH:
HOW TO DETECT IT
BY MISS ANNA5ELL TURNER,
University of Wisconsin.

In these days Of high prices of
cloth there is a great deal Of cloth of
inferior quality upon the market. In
detecting authorizations the following
hints may be useful to purchasers.
To tell whether sample Of wool
en- cloth is mixed with cotton, I'M
ravel a sample of material, exposing
the warp and welt threads separately.
wool fibers are more curly than the
cotton. Burn some Of the threads; If
cotton. they will burn quickly; II
wool, more slowly with an odor like
that of burning feathers or bones. II
cotton and wool are spun together in
the same thread. this test is not re-
liable.
A test which will separate cotton
an wool even when spun together is
the alkali test. To use this. mix to-
gether one tablespoonful Of Lewis lye
and one pint of water. Place the sam
pie OF cloth in granite dish and COW
er with the above solution. and boil
five minutes. This treatment dis
solves out the wool, leaving the cot

There is not the name Of single

that there will be 10000 less civil
