WASTED A FORTUNE ON SKIN
TROUBLE
"I began to have an itching over
whole body about seven years ago and
this settled in my limbs,
from the knee
to the toes. I went to see a great many
physicians, a matter which cost me
a
fortune, and after I noticed that I did
not get any relief that way, I went foi
three years to the hospital. But they
were unable to help me there, I used
all the medicines that I could see but
became worse and worse. I had an
inflammation which made me almost
crazy with pain. When I showed my
foot to my friends they would get
really frightened. I did not know
what to do. I was so sick and had be
come so nervous that I positively lost
all hope.
"I bad seen the advertisement o»
the Cuticura Remedies a great many
times, but could not make up my mind
to buy them, for I had already used so
many medicines. Finally I did decide
to use the Cuticura Remedies and I
tell you that I was never so pleased as
when I noticed that, after having used
two sets of Cuticura Soap, Cuticura
Ointment and Cuticura Pills, the en
tire inflammation' had gone. I was
completely cured. I should be only
too glad if people with similar disease
would come to me and find out the
truth. I would only recommend them
to use Cuticura. Mrs. Uertha Sachs,

"Mrs. Rertha Sachs Is my sister-in

failed. Morris Sachs, 321 R. 89th St.,

The Privilege of Man.
R. F. Yoakum, chairman of the ex»
cutive board of the Frisco system of
railroads, on one occasion took to task
ft young man in his employ who had
announced his intention of marrying.
The youth in question was drawing
small salary, and Yoakum remon
strated with him on the ground that
he could not afford to marry and that
his wife would have to suffer great
privations.
"Oh," said the yoting man. "I guess
I've got as much right to starve a wo
man to death as any other man has."
