ERUPTION ON ANKLE BURNED

Kingsville, Mo.-"My trouble began
eighteen years ago. Nearly half OF
the time there were running sores
around my ankle; sometimes it would
be two years at q time before they
were healed. There were many nights
did not sleep because of the great
suffering. The sores were deep rum
ming ones and SO sore that I could not
bear for anything to touch them
They would burn all the time and
sting like a lot of bees were confined
around my ankle. could not bear to
scratch it, it was always so sensitive
to the touch could not let my
clothes touch 1t. The skin was very
of white felt, blotting paper and soft
white cloth to hold 1t in shape. This
l wore night and day.
II tried many remedies for most Of
the eighteen years with no effect
Last summer I sent for some Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. The very first
time used Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment gained relief; they relieved the
pain right then. It was three months
from the time I commenced using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment until the
sores were entirely healed. I have
not been troubled since and my ankle
seems perfectly WE'LL" (Signed) Mrs

peerless one. It is a record Of constant

AF|GHTING DOCTOR
How One Young Physician Lit.
orally Fought His Way Into
Fame and Practice.
BY JOHN PHILIP ORTIZ,

When medical student has re
ceived bis diploma and Is turned
adrift to succeed or fail it is the crisis
Of his life Not one in ten can figure
out how he is going to support himself
until he can get foOthold. When he
has selected his town and his office
and his home he must wait for pa
dents. and weeks and months may 60
by before his prescriptions begin TO be
handed In to the drug store.
When DR.. Charles Chisholm made
nis advent at Lansing he found seven
N. DIS for a population of $500 That
was 500 each. In the course ia year,
- doctors figure, ten people out OF
every 500 will need the service OF a
aide OF epidemics. Taking the doctors
ngures again, the charge to the ten pa
dents will not average over SIS each.
That means an income OF $3.50 per
year, and an outgo of 5000. Out OF
seven doctors in a town with the popu-
latiOn gwen. two will make fair in.
come The other five will simply hang
on and wish they had learned the car
penter's trade.
Doctor Chisholm had this all figured
out, and yet he decided to take
chances and hope for luck. Another
man might have been kept waiting for
months. He was taking his first drive
into the country TO get the lay OF the
land. when luck came gallOping up.
