Water BlfstMs All Over Body For Thirteen Years
ltched So Had to Tie ChiId's Hands. Very Cross and FretfuI. Hair
 Came Out. Cuticura Healed.

My son was three years old when water blisters began on his head, then on his eyes, and then all over his body. His skin was infamed and red, and the breaking out itched so that had to tie mittens on his hands for he would scratch and make it spread. He was very cross and fretful, and kept me awake nights. His clothing would stick to him and his hair came off and was dry and lifeless. The trouble lasted thirteen years.
 ''He began to use Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and in two weeks there was hardly pimple on my boy, and now he is healed" (Signed) Mrs. Martha L. Thomas, R. F. D. 3, Chester, Vt, Oct. 4, 1916.
 Use Cuticura Soap for toilet purposes, assisted, now and then, by touches of Cuticura Ointment to soothe and heal any tendency to irritation, redness or roughness of the skin or scalp. By using these delicate, fragrant super-creamy emollients for all toilet purposes you may prevent many skin and scalp troubles becoming serious.

Wars Effect Upon Travel Here.

Passenger revenue on the Boston and Maine for the first six months of crease for the same period was less than $300.000. Reduced to percent ages, the figures become more signi- hcant, for the gain in passenger bus
 mess is nearly twelve per cent, while that in freight business is less than two per cent. It cannot be doubted that the establishment of military camps at Aver. Rockingham, N. H., and other places. has been a factor in the increased passenger business. In fact, the going to and fro between military camps and the homes of sol diers or workmen has caused through out the country a large amount of travel, which is not likely to be di- unfinished when the new army goes in to training.-Springfie Republican.

BOTTLE BLOW EXPENSIVE
Costs John kasuek $42.35 in City Court-Man Who Beat Wife Liable to Four Months in Jail.

The specta tors gallery of the po- lice court was crowded Monday morn Of the men pleaded not guilty but all
 were judged guilty by Judge F. H. Foss.
 John Kasuek. the first to appear, was accused of assault on Saffron Du- brilo about a year ago and pleaded. not guilty. The regular court inter preter. Jake Heller, did not satisfy him and he called on Aleck Barnuf- sky. Dr. Girard. the first witness, tes-, tified that Dubrilo came to his office with two cuts on his head. one of which required four stitches to close. Dubrilo said that he wasvin a saloon when the accused and his companion started the trouble. On his way and one held him while the other hit him in the face. Then the other hit him or the back of the head and he remembered nothing of the fight. His the accused having a bottle in his hand. probably the instrument that caused the cuts.
 Kasuek blamed Dubrilo for the fight saying that he started it. He said all so that Dubrilo jumped on him on Cha pman street and he defended him. self. He saw blood on Dubrilo but did not know where it came from or he saw of Dubrilo was when he was telephoning for the police.

He founded the case of assault on the to boss the house which his wife dis puted. Her ~fdeas in. that line were changed and he was sentenced to 60 days in jail and then judgment was and he was placed on pro- bation. AS he is already on probation with another sixty day sentence if he shows up in the court again, it will mean four months sentence addition to what he receives at the time.
