RlNeWoRM ON cHILD's FACE

Stratford, Iowa.-''Three years, ago
this winter my seven-year-old son had
ringworm on the face. First it 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.
81 saw where a child had a rash on
the face and was cured by Cuticura
Soap and Ointment and I decided to
use them. 1 used Cuticura Soap and
Ointment about one month, and they
cured my child completely" (Signed)

III the ar Inc SIOrm was at an END
and yet the young minister was con-
scious of troublesome feeling that,
for him, it was just beginning.
However, he had determined while
dressing to make a clean breast of 1t
to his housekeeper-a nominally clean
breast, that is. So, as they sat oppo-
site each other at the table, he began
his confession The mullins scorched
in the oven and the coffeepot boiled
over as he told his story, for Keziah
was too much interested to think of
trif1es. Interested and astounded, for,
since Come-Outers had been Come-Out-
ers and the split in the society took
place, no Regular minister had crossed
the threshold of a seceder's dwelling,
much less attended their services and
walked home with a member of their
congregation. She knew what this
amazing procedure was likely to mean,
