Rocks That Float In Water.
A geologist who is well up In his
business can name -i dozen or twenty
different specimens of ro? ks anil min
erals that have less specific gravity
than water and which will, if tossed
Into that element, tloat on the surface.
Hubelite is one of the best known rep
resentatives of that class. The common
pumice stone Is anofher example. The
rock with the very least specific grav
ity known Is damari. a substance
found in an extinct volcano iu Damara
land. Its atomic weight i< .5, or exact
ly one-half that of hydrogen. ?

WITH ECZEMA
Obliged to Lie With Limbs Higher
Than Head ? Suffered Untold
Agonies and Could Not Walk ?
Doctor Said It Was the Worst
Case he Ever Saw,
ANOTHER WONDERFUL
CURE BY CL'TICURA
"I received your letter asking for
information about using the Cuticura
Remedies. I useil them for eczema.
The doctor said it was the worst case
he ever saw. It was on both limbs,
from the knees to the ankles. We
tried everything the doctors knew of,
but the Cuticura Remedies did the
most good. I was obliged to lie with
my limbs higher than ray head, for the
pain was so terrible I could not walk.
I suffered untold agonies. One limb
wasted away a great deal smaller than
the other, there was so much discharge
from it. 1 found the Cuticura Rem
edies very soothing, and I still keep them
in the house. 1 am very thankful to
say that I am cured, and you can pub
lish this statement if you wish. I found
the Cuticura Remedies all that you say
they are. I hope that you may be
spared many years to make the Cuticura
Remedies for the Ixmefit of persons suf
ferir.^ from the torture of skm diseases,
Buch as I had. I remain, yours re
spectfully, Mrs. Uoldiug, Box 8, Ayr,
Canada, June 6, 1905."
CURED OF CHAPPED HANDS j
" I have used the Cuticura SoaD fed
chapped hands, which I had been |
troubled with for about three years. I
suffered intense pain and itching. I
used nearly two cakes of the Cuticura
Soap, and my hands were completely
cured and have never troubled me
since. I also took the Cuticura Resol
vent for the blood at the same time.
I can recommend the Cuticura Rem
edies to others suffering the same.
