CJTICU2A HEiLS SEVERE ITCHING
On Mothers Body, Caused Her To Scratch, Could Not Sleep,

My mother was troubled witE a breaking out of pimples on her body. The itching was very severe and caused her to scratch, which seemed to make the breaking out spread, and she could not sleep good at night.
 The trouble lasted about four weeks. She tried several remedies but none of them were successful. She began using Cudcura Soap and Ointment and after using one cake of Soap and one box of Ointment shewas completely healed. " { lSiguedl Richard BrocSman, R. 3, Hunts vile, Missouri.

AFRICA WANTS BIBLE
BIBLE TO Be TAUGHT IN THE
SCHOOLS OF SOUTH AFRICA
NEED OF RELIGION is
STRESSED.

/(By \. G. w. c. News Service.D
For two years the Anglican and
Dutch Reformed Churches have been
trying to reach an agreement with the
government on the subject of school
program which would permit uni
form course in religion to be given in
all the South African schools. The
Anglican bishop recently called a
meeting at Pieter- Maritzburg to which
all the Christian Churches were urged
to send representatives.
The meeting was attended by Pres
.byterians, Methodists. Baptists, Angli
cans and members of the Dutci Re
formed Church. In view of the impor
tance of the question, the Catholic
Church was represented by Rev NJ
Sanmany. The following measures
were recommended to the government
by unanimous consent:
/. More time must be given to the
teaching of the Bible in the schools.
2. This instruction must be given
by competent teachers.
5. These teachers must believe in
the Holy Scriptures they teach.
4. The Bible must be taught in al
normal schools, and pupils must he ex
amined in this as they are in other
subjects. !,
B. The inspectors must supervise
the execution of these measures.
Hitherto school regulations lef1
much to be desired in this connection

Brief Reviews and Notices

The Tale of Two Brothers. By Rev.
Edward F. Murphy. Published by
O'Donovan Bros, Baltimore. Price,
$125.
Stories with a Catholic atmosphere
for boys and girls receive a welcome
addition in the Tale of Two Brothers.
1t is not of the goody goody type.
but it carries an appeal in every chap
ter. Fred and Joe go through har-
rowing experiences, something new in
the line of fiction. joe captures the
fancy and easily is the favorite of the
two although Fred finally enters the
ministry. The finale is rather unex-
pected for some of the characters,
while old man Billings turns up at
the end after he had been plumb for
gotten.
Two short stories, the Brave Cow
ard and the Two Mothers, at the end
of the volume. are. both pleasing and
instructive reading. This book should
be found on the shelves wherever jul
venile fiction is in demand. .

WHY AMOUFLACE2

Why camouflagei Why wear a maski Why conceal your
real self Be genuine, then you can be sincere. Bazon before
the world your real personality. To be a happy home-builder,
to be a successful business woman, to be a charming social
leader you must do that. As soon as you begin to camouflage
you will become tricky, unreliable and repellant.
We all know the difference between a genuine article and
an imitation. There is not one among my readers but what If
she were offered as a gift a choice of an imitation or a real seal
fur coat, would not choose the latter.
Not only are genuine articles more valuable but they are
so much more beautiful. Who would prefer a paper rose to a
genuine Killarney
And still, when it comes to personality, character and per-
sonal appearance how many of us choose to camouflage. We
hide our real selves behind a mask of affection or a wall Of
indifference. We are not really as cold and naughty as we ap-
pear. Our hearts are filled with kind and loving thoughts.
Why camouflage themi
Often we apparently prefer the ring Of the counterfeit
coin of character to that Of the genuine. We bluff. For the
sake of making an impression we try, perhaps, to camouflage
the size Of our income by living beyond it. Insincerty then
creeps into all our actions. In the same ratio as our speech
becomes boastful, exaggerated, extravaganza, our nerves be-
come ragged, our dispositions testy and our lives unhappy
from the strain of continual camouflage.
In our appearance how many of US look more like the
powdered clowns of the circus than the sensible person We
really are.
Don't camouflage. Be honest. Be sincere. Be natural if
you would be charming, valuable and successful.
The charm Of a little child lies in its naturalness. The
value Of a friendship in its sincerity. The success Of a per-
sonality in its genuineness. We all know these things and we
believe them-so why camouflagei

YOUR BABY AND MINE
BY MYRTLE MEYER MpREp
Two Babies.
Mrs, r. A g writes.


Mrs. f. A. s. writes:
My baby is 2-months-old, weighed
eight pounds at birth and now
weighs eleven pounds. She cries
most of the time and doesn't sleep
hardly any in the day time. She is
breast fed and acts hungry most of
the time. She sucks her fist as # she
were starving.
I have tried feeding her but it
doesn't help. She vomits quite often
right after nursing. I nurse here
every three hours. Her stools are
green and undigested and she looks
pale and delicate but seems strong.
She wants to lie on her stomach most
OF the time and her stomach is
bloated and she has gas in her bow
els. l am the mother of seven chill
dren and am very weak and nervous.
/ have plenty of milk but do you
think is is rich enough What
would you advise me to do?
80. Answer.
/ think you are exactly right about
the baby being hungry. She is two
pounds under the average weight;
the condition of the stools. the gas,
the sleeplessness coupled with this
look like poor nutrition. At her age
complimentary feelings are the
most successful. Nurse her for
only ten minutes every three hours.
Then offer her three ounces OF milk
In the proportion of n ounce of
whole milk and two ounce of boiled
water. Give this amount after each
nursing but do not urge her to take
only as much as she wants of it.
This method keeps the breasts regu-
iarly stimulated every three hours
and yet the baby has the benefit of
additional n~ourishment.

And here we are, girls, in the
midst Of Christmas holidays, with
all the fun and good cheer that
those mere words always suggest.
You will all be glad to have this
delightful Whit of clear, cold air
from the mountains Of P~ennsylva-
mia:
Somewhere in Pennsylvania"
Dec. rs.
Dear Mary G., II
You don't know how thrilling it
is to a girl who has always spent
her winters in New Jersey, right on
the coast, to come up here IN the
wonderful snow-covered mountains
of Pennsylvania. The country ali
around looks exactly like q Christ
mas card, that old-fashioned kind
that glitters. When I woke up this
morning I hardly dared to open my
eyes for fear I had just dreamed 1t.
You see three of us, who are all
seniors in Miss SIS school, were in
yited up to Gretchen's to spend q
real winter holiday at her lovely
old farm home. It's the stunningest
house, old gray stone, a big Chin
heavenly old fireplace almost across
the entire end of the living room.
The ceiling Is beamed, and the
wood has weathered until it Is the
most beautiful color, between n
brown and a gray. OF course the
w. family have lovely things, and
there is steam heat, so you don't
have to shiver while you are being
picturesque.
Gretchen told us to forget silk
stockings and all dress clothes, but
to bring Jaeger fannels and wool
stockings, and wool knicks, and our
heaviest sweater and an ulster, and
if we'd feel better. a jersey dress
to dress in for dinner, and to bring
skates and snowshoes if we had
them!
So Christmas night we all met at
Harrisburg, with our duffle, hockey
sticks and q pair Of skis added to
our first list, and Gretchen and her
father met US in their big sedan.
At first we didn't think much
about looking at the view, but pref
ty soon above all the talking we
heard Sue Gray emitting little
soueals of delight. Scenery has
never appealed to me very strong
Iy, perhaps because there isn't such
a choice panorama to be equealed
over between home and New York
city, but talk about scenery! o me.
o my! Hills, g~1istening with a great
stretch of snow. perfectly unbroken.
and moonlight to make 1t sparkle.
Farmhouses, lovely picturesque
ones, brick or stone, with the same
kind of chimneys at each end, and.
lights shining so yellow out OF tho
windowi
The drive was thirty miles, but
we couldn't believe it when we pilee
out at Gretchen's.
I can't tell you all about Gs fam
lily or this would have to be a serial
story, but they all r darlings, even
her mother (and mothers are quite
often a disappointment, don't you
think? not what the novels would
lead you to expect). But we had a
little supper. mostly cocoa with
whipped cream and sandwiches,
right by that big fireplace, and then
we were all SO sleepy that Mrs: w;
sent us OF to bed, n we iont
have to be told twice either.
Next morning after breakfast we
heard sleighbells. and there were
