SKIN ERUPTION ON CHEEK

Kingsley, Mch.-"Last May my
thirteen-months-old baby had a sore
cc1ne on her cheek. 1t started in four
OF FIVE small pimples and in two or
three hours time spread to the size OF
silver dollar. 1t spread to her eye.
Then water would run from the PIN
pies and wherever that touched 1t caus-
ed more sores until nearly all one
cheek and up her nostrils We're one
solid sore. She was very fretful. She
certainly was terrible looking child,
and nothing seemed to be of any use.
Then | got some Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment She tried to rub
off everything We put on SO that we
would sit and hold her hands for two
hours at a time, trying to give the
medicine a chance to help her, but
after l washed 1t with Cuticura Soap
and then put on the Cuticura Oint-
ment they seemed to soothe her and
she did not try to rub them OF. 1t
was all healed up. and there has been
no return OF the trouble since. We
thought that baby's face would surely

BLAME PLACED ON PHYSICIANS
Growth Of Drug Habit in United States
Alleged to Be Due to Opiates
Ordered In Prescriptions.

That 80 per cent. of all the cocaine
and morphine manufactured in this
country is used by persons who have
formed the drug habit through physi-
clans prescriptions is the startling
statement made by DR.. l.. F. Kebler,
Chief OF the Division OF Drugs. Depart
ment of Agriculture. This statement.
concerning the appalling growth OF
drug addiction in the United States.
was made by DR.. kebler in an address
at Washington, before the American
Society for the Study of Alcohol and
Narcotics
DR.. kebler is quoted by Washington
papers as having declared that drug
using had increased 100 per cent in
the last 40 years. and that American
medical men were not discriminating
enough in their use of opiates. Their
overindulgence to their patients. he
said, is creating thousands OF drug
users every year.
ut is a very sad thing to say that
our physicians are doing the greatest
work in promoting the use of cocaine
and morphine said the doctor State
laws are not saving the public from
the grip of the drug habit. and the
American public is sinking tighter
and tighter into the black abyss OF
the morphine and cocaine fiend
The worst of it is that the impor-
tation OF opium into the country is
becoming larger and larger year by
year. l have heard it said on reliable
authority that 80 per cent. of the CO
caine and morphine manufactured in
this country is used by persons who
have formed the habit through doc
tors prescriptions"
Almost simultaneously with Dr. keb-
ler's address, DR.. J. A. Patterson, at
Grand Rapids. Michigan. in public
statement said that 10 out of every 20
patients who come to an institution
with which he is connected for treat
ment for the drug habit owe their
downfall to physicians prescriptions.

Those Peruna Testimonials
How Are They Obtained?

refer such questions to body OF men
who are already convinced OF the
worthlessness OF proprietary medi-
cines. To give such a body OF men
the unlimited authority to decide
whether our claims for Peruna are
valid or not is 4 manifest violation Of
my constitutional rights.
My claims are based both on cred
table theoretical grounds and upon
irrefutable statistics But l am quite
willing TO have our claims as TO the
composition OF Peruna properly and
thoroughly Investigated, and II found
to be false proper penalty should
be fixed. Or IL | am making any
statements concerning disease, as TO
the nature. symptoms or danger Of
any disease, If am making any such
statements as TO unnecessarily fright
en- the people by false assumptions, I
am willing to submit 10 any unbiased
tribunal or investigation.
Mrs. Alice Boyle. S03 Clinton St.
Circleville, Ohio. writes: Il want to
inform you what Peruna has done
for me. | have been afflicted with ca
tarrh for several years. | have tried

THE BEST TEACHER.
Old Experience Still Holds the Palm

For real practical reliability and
something to swear by, experience

big load yet without getting sway
backed.
A So. Oak woman found some
things about food from Old Expert
ence a good, reliable teacher.
She writes:
L think / have used almost every
breakfast food manufactured, but none
equal Grape-Nuts in my estimation.
Il was greatly bothered with weak
stomach and indigestion, with forma-
ton Of gas after eating. and tried
many remedies for it but did not find
relief
Then l decided must diet and see
II could overcome the difficulty that
way. My choice of food was Grape
Nuts because the doctor told me I
could not digest starchy food.
"Grape-Nuts food has been a great
benefit to me for feel like different
person since I begun to eat it. 1t Is
wonderful to me how strong my
nerves have become. l advise every.
one to try it. for experience is the
best teacher.
II you have any stomach trouble
can't digest your food, use Grape
Nuts food for breakfast at least, and
you won't be able to praise it enough
