RINGWORM ON cHILD'S FACE

Stratford, Iowa.-"Three years ago
this winter my seven-yearold son had
ringworm on the face. First 1t was in
small red spots which had a rough
crust on the top. When they started
they looked like little red dots and
then they got bigger about the size
Of birds egg. They had a white
rough ring around them, and grew
continually worse and soon spread
over his face and legs. The child suf-
fered terrible itching and burning. so
that he could not sleep nights. He
scratched them and they looked fear
full. He was cross when he had them.
We used several bottles of liniment,
but nothing helped.
II saw where a child had n rash on
the face and was cured by Cuticura
Soap and Ointment and l decided to
use them. l used Cuticura Soap and
Ointmert about one month. and they
cured NY child completely" (Signed)

Farmers have been given plenty of
advice during the past years, some Of
which hasn't been very welcome. Here
is just a point that we want to impress
upon you, however. 1t doesn't look
like good business to see machinery

good. Too much machinery on farm
doesn't pay, even if it is housed. We'd
much rather sell you material for
barn or a cattle shed or even poul-
try or hog house. These are the
buildings that show signs of pros
perity. When you want lumber, come
in and let's see if we can suit you. We
have splendid stock of all kinds of
material and you'll always find the
prices right. Rogers Lumber Co., H.
