TORTURED B?
IICMLP
Ewema Broke Out Also on Hands
and Limbs - Suffering Intense
Doctors Said Too Old to Be
Cured -An tfld Soldier of 80
Years Declares:
"CUTICURA TREATMENT
IS A BLESSING"
"At all times ard to all people 1 am
willing to testify tn the merits of Cu
ticura. It saved me froia worse than
the tortures of hades. about ' he year
1900. with itching on my scalp and
temples, and afterwards it commenced
to break out on my hands. Then it
broke out on my limb*. I was advised
to use salt and water, which 1 did. to
no effevt. I then went to a Surgeon, who
commenced treating me with a wash of
borax. This treatment did me no good,
but rather aggravated th? disease. I
then told him ! would >w and see a phy
sician in Erie. The reply was thiat I
could go anywhere, but a case of
eczema like mine could not be cured;
that I was too old (80). I went to an
eminent doctor in the city of Erie and
treated with him for six months, with
like results. I had read of the Cu
ticura Remedies often. I was strongly
tempted to give them a trial, so I sent
for the Cuticura Soap. Ointment, and
Resolvent ana continued taking the
Resolvent until 1 had taken six bottles,
stopping it to take the Pills. I was now
getting better. I took two baths a day,
and at night 1 let the lather of the Soap
dry on. 1 used the Ointment with
great effect after washing in warm
water, to stop the itching at once. I
am now cured.
"The Cuticura treatment is a blessing
and should be used by every one who
has itching of the skin. I can't say any
more, and thank Clod that He has given
the world such a curative. ^ ou can
use this letter as you plpase. A vety
much ! lefriendcd man. Wm. H. Gray,

Recently a wearied looking little
mother, earning a smull baby. boarded
u street ear and took n seat next to
two men who were earnestly engaged
In conversation. Neither of the men
was very handsome, and It must have
required considerable nerve on their
part to haud out their photographs
among their friends unless the pictures
bad been previously retouched with
sandpaper. In a few minutes the baby
began to cry with a reliable yelp that
could be heard above the din of the
street babble for half a block, and,
with a grouchy glance at the young
liter, oue of the men arose and peevish
ly remarked to his pal:
"1 think we had better sir over here.
Jim."
This ungallnnt act plainly ernbar
rass<i. ihf: little mother, but she was
equ'.il to tbe occasion.
"It won't do a bit of good to change
your seats, gentlemen," said she In a
finely sarcastic voice. "The baby can
Bee you quite as plaluly over there as
be could here."

Iu the glass collection at the Museum
of Art iu Dresdeu. Germany, there Is a
large drinking cup which stands apart
from all other art objects uuder a
heavy glass cover. It is of Dutch
workmanship, and the Inscriptions and
style show that it was made early In
the eighteenth century. The vessel is
remarkable because It Is known in the
museum, says a Berlin paper, "as hav
ing consumption which can be com
municated to other objects of glass.
On that account it Is isolated. There
are remedies against this glass disease,
which is usually developed because of
defects iu the glass mixture, but these
hiive not been applied to the Dutch
vessel In order that the progress of tha
wasting disease may tie observed."
