4. no nu ‘ nun an Skin Beneath Lifeless. Fingers Painful. Sleepless Nights. Used Cuticura Soap and Cutlcura Oint- ment. Complaint Gone. â€"â€".___.â€". '10 Agricola 8t.. Halifax, N. 8.â€"â€"“Some time ago my finger nails began to drop off. the result it was believed of lead poisoning. The nails themselves were brittle and .dry. the skin beneath being lifeless looking. My fingers were excesively painful causing sleepless nights. I was treated for about three months and the nails grew again but away from the flesh of the fingers and then fell off again. ' "Having heard a great deal of Cuticura Soap and Ointment I sent for a sample of both in the hope of their healing my lingers which were very painful. At night after washing my hands well with the Cuticura Soap I rubbed the Cuticura Ointment all around the finger ends and were gloves to prevent the Ointment from being rubbed off. then again in the morning washed my hands with the Cuticura Soap. The Cuticura Soap and Ointment had a cooling sheet and after using them for a short while I was surc prised to feel fingers much less sore and beginning to assume a more healthy appear- ance; the fungus which had grown under the old nails disappeared and then new strong nails formed. This trouble had lasted about eighteen months before using Cuticura Soap and Ointment yet after using same for three months my linger nails had grown strong and complaint had entirely gone."

Apart from that, even a. safety razor can only be used in one way'if the best ,results are to be obtained. ' Which ever kind of razor you use, .vyou should be careful always to shave with the run of the beard. Never shave against the grain; it is bad for the skin, the beard, and fthe razor. A safety razor should be pressed flat against the face, and the action of a. scythe should be imitated. That is to say, instead of running the razor straight down the face, use a semiâ€"circular motion. .. Perhaps the most important part of a, shave is the lathering. The more the beard is lathered the softer it will become; it is false economy to scamp this part of the performance in order to save time or trouble. ' An ordinary razor should always be stropped before and after use, and the soap should be thoroughly taken off it by hot water. A razor is all the better for a. rest occur sion-ally. Learn‘how to use a-strop properâ€" ly. The razorâ€"strep should hang from a. point not high-er than the waist-line. Shaving, and the care of a razor, is a scien e; and the :man who can keep his razor, in Egood condition is a. man to be en- lvied, especially in the winter. ._..___»I<__..__ Equal to the Emergency.

Then my appetite failed. I grew very weak. Various remedies, pills, tonics and tablets. I tried without permanent benefit. A visit to my sister put into my hands a box-of Dr. Hamilton's Pills. placed reliance upon them and now that they have made me a well woman I would not be without‘them whatever they might cost. I found Dr. Hamil- ton's Pills by their mild yet searching action very suitable to the delicate character of a woman’s nature. They never once griped me, yet they estab- flished regularity.

El WSSEERWL BlSSfiES‘l’ An eminent scientist, the other day, gave his opinion that the most won- derful discovery of recent years was the discovery of Zamâ€"Buk. Just think! As soon as a single thin layer‘ of Zam-Buk is applied to a wound or a sore, such injury is insured against blood poison! :Not one species of microbe has been found that Zam-Buk does not kill! . . Then again. As soon as Zam-Buk is applied to a sore, or a cut, or to skin disease, it stops the smarting. That is why children are such friends of Zam-Buk. They care nothing for the science of the thing. All they know is that Zam-Buk stops their plailn. Mothers should never forget t 3. Again. As soon as Zam~Bnk is ap- plied to a wound or to a diseased part, the cells beneath the skin’s sur- face are so stimulated that new healthy tissue is quickly formed. This forming of fresh healthy tissue from below is Zam-Buk’s secret of healing. The tissue thus formed is worked up to the surface and literally casts oil the diseased tissue above it. This is why Zam-Buk cures are permanent. Only the other day Mr. Marsh, of 101 Delorimier Ave“ Montreal, called upon the Zam-Buk Co. and told them that for over twenty-five years he had .been a. martyr to eczema. His hands were at one time so covered with sores that he had to sleep in gloves. Four years ago Zam-Buk was introduced to him, and ’in a. few months it cured him. three years after his cure of a. disease he had for twenty-five yearsâ€"he is gtill cured, and has had no trace of guy return of the eczema! All druggiots sell Zam~Buk at 50c. box, or we will send free trial box if you send this advertisement and a. lo. stamp (to pay return postage).

' That there is a, surprising scarcity of bacteria in dust has been shown by recent experiments. By means of the Aitken dust counter, one scientist discovered that in the open suburbs of London there are 40,000 particles in every cubic inch of air. The same investigator found in London but one microbe to every 38 cubic inches of air. When air is constantly floating about and man is constantly mov- ing about», he comes in contact with a. great deal of air space, and so in the course of a day runs a. chance of breathing many microbes into lhis lungs. If, however, every dark and damp place could suddenly be dried up and stirred up, the micro~ organisms would be found in terri- fyineg large numbers. It is the heat of the sun and the bright light that keep down those micro-organ- isms, and so, even on a. dusty day, there is a. poverty of microbes in the air, and if the sun be bright and hot. __._.____>x<__.,_..__ Even a. girl’s heartache is forgot- ten when she has the toothache.

Then one of my neighbors advised me to try Dodd’s Kidney Pills. I bought four boxes, and they helped almost from the first. I have used nearly two dozen boxes and am nearly cured.” That rheumatism is one one of the results of diseased kidneys is in Mrs. Baldwin’s case. She had headaches, stiffness of the joints and backache, her sleep was broken amd‘ unrcfreshing, and she was always tired and nef- vous. '- Her limbs swelled and she was always thirsty.

O'n-e Sunday morning he exe- cuted a plan which he had devised to stop this annoyance. At a. given signal the choir stopped on a cer- tain word in the middle of a hymn. Then one of the gossipers, unable to check herself, was heard all over the church to say: “I always fry mine in lard.” “As we know,” an- nounced the minister, “that she al- ways fries hers in lard. we will proceed with the singing.” -~r10wers, Fruit and Sunshine in rehruary and always. are'to be found in Califor- nia, the ideal Winter-inn: place. reached comfortably and conveniently by the Chicago, Union Pacific and North West- ern Line. via the fastest and most direct routes, amidst the luxurious surround- ings of the compartment. club and ob- servation parlor. or more moderate- priced and homelike Tourist car.

'Forcing plants by the vapor of ether seems to have proven one of the‘most successful methods: yet tried. A French horticulturist,‘ G. Bultel, has experimented with other as a. means of obtaining? early strawberries, and reports berries much in advance of those obtained by any other method. In the‘winter of 1911-12, Mr. Bul- tcl compared a. lot of '300 plants treated with other with an equal number submitted to hot baths. Of the first lot. 107 .were in bloom on Jan. 8, and blooming ended on Jan. 16, while the first berries were me.- tured on Feb. 21, and the last on March 15. In the second lot, with only thirtyâ€"three in bloom on Jon. S, blooming end-ed on Jan. 29, me.- turity being reached from March 6 to April 15. forty-eight hours. Of the treated plants, 150 were exposed for this length of time, and 150 for sixty hours, and the earlinees of the lat- ter was only slightly greater than that produced with the shorter ex- posure.
