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 1t would
be two years at a time before they
were healed. There were many nights
I did not sleep because Of the great
suffering. The sores were deep run
ming ones and so sore that l 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. I could not bear to
scratch 1t, it was always so sensitive
to the touch. I could not let my
clothes touch 1t. The skin was very
red. l made what l called a cap out
of white felt, plotting paper and soft
white cloth to hold it 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 I used Cuticura Soap and ONT
ment I gained relief; they relieved the
pain right then. 1t was three months
from the time I commenced using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment until the
sores were entirely healed. l have
not been troubled since and my ankle
seems perfectly we'll" (Signed) Mrs.

Ourselves and Our Neiahbor.,

Did it ever occur to you that well
fare of the world depends pon the
Dor? It is a simple proposition. If you
carry it u to the logical conclusion
you get all the problems OF society, dip
lomacy n craftsmanship. If you are
at l-oggerheads with your neighbour, and
there are enough Of you to be at logger
heads with enough neighbors to make
a real showing. the situation assumes
the form Of craftsmanship, and il you
wish to carry the comparison across
seas, you have the trouble and irrita-
tons Of international entanglements.
So the relation Of neighbor to neighbor
become the chief thing in the world.
You know very well II your neighbor ic
faultfinding and surly, your family suf-
fers in many ways There are sights.
There is no happiness in the neigh
borhood. Hard feelings are created.
False competitions are started. You
try to Guido one another, and the fur
ther this is pursued, the worse it IL
for everybody. More than one town or
small city gees bankrupt on its absurd
pretudicea, when all might be avoided
by proper nefghborliness.

United state. Export. GROWING.

From the Christian Science Monitor.
It IL predicted in high tariff circles, to
be sure. that the December showing is but
the beginning Of a great wave Of importa-
tons from all parts Of the world seeking
a share in the trade OF the United States
under freer conditions, but 1t is well to set
up against this the fact that the export
trade OF the United States Is also growing
very rapidly. II the rest OF the world may
share in the prosperity Of the United
States through the instrumentality OF the
Underwood tariff. this, as indicated by
statistics, is evidently not to prevent the
United States from sharing in the worlds
prosperity. And it will be far better If
prosperity shall be distributed universally
than that any single nation, or group OF
nations. should thrive at the expense OF
human comfort elsewhere.
