There is only one test by which to
Juike of the efficiency of any article

out the point Is ? do they eradicate Dan
druff and stop falling hair?
No, they do not. but Herpicide does,
-cause it roes to the root of the evil

BEECHER'S ONLY POEM.
The Verses Were Always Kept Sacred
by Mrs. Beecher.
It was related by Mrs. Henry Want
Beecher that during their courtship Mr.
Beecher once "dropped Into poetry"
and wrote a few tines of verse teeming
with affection for his sweetheart. Rut
the verses were always kept sacred by
Mrs. liepi h and nothing could win
them from I : one day Mr. and Mrs.
Beecher were in the otiiee of Robert
Rouner. the |>ublisher.
"Why don't y.m write a poem, Heech
?rV" said Mr.. Bomier.
"lie did once," said Mrs. Beecher.
"Recits it for me. won't you, Mrs,
?beecher?"
But the eyes of the great preacher
verc riveted on his wife, and she knew
:hat he meant silence.
"Come." said Mr. Bonner. "I'll give
von 95.000 if you will recite that poem
to me." addressing Mrs. Beecher.
"Why, It ran"? qiiiekly said Mrs.
Beecher.
"Hun ice!" simply said Mr. Beecher.
And, although Robert Bonner after
ward offered to double the sum first
offered, he never got the poem from
Mrs. Beecher. It had been hidden
sway by Mrs. Beeclier and cherished
is one of the dearest treasures her
husband left her.

Baby's Torture? Tries Cuticura
Soap and Cuticura Ointment.
IMMEDIATE RELIEF
AND SPEEDY CURE
"M? baby was about nine months
old when she had rash on her face and
feet. Her feet seemed to irritate her
most, especially
nights. They would
cause her to be
broken of her rest,
and sometimes sho
would cry until she
was tired out. I had
always used Cuti
cura Soap myself,
and had heard of so
many cures by the
Cuticura Remedies
that I thought I
would give them a
trial. Tneimprove
mentwas noticeable
; in a few hours, and before I had used
1 one box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet
were well and have nover troubled her
since. I also used it to remove what
is known as "cradle cap" from her
head, and it worked like a charm as it
cleansed and healed the scalp at thesamo
time. Now I keep Cuticura Ointment
on hand in case of any little rash or
insect bites, as it takes out the inflam
mation at once. Perhaps this may be
the means of helping other suffering
babies. Mrs. Hattie Currier, Thomas
ton, Ma, June 9, 1906."
