splendldreceptlon arranged by the cKl
zens of Raleigh and the Legislature. 1

establishment of a reformatory, the en
largement of the Inaace Asylum and of
the Soldiers' Home, better provision In
the way of pensions, an appropriation
for a fire proof Hall of Records and His
tory, besides some minor things really
o! importance.

BABY'S FACE
MAS
OF
Ears Looked as if They Would Drop
Off Body Entirely Covered with.
Humor Three Doctors Could
Not Cure Child Grew Worse.
CURED BY CUTICURA
IN TWO WEEKS
Mrs. George J. Steese, of 701 Coburu
St., Akron, Ohio, tells in the following
tetter of another of those remarkable
cures of torturing, disfiguring skin
humors daily made by Cnticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment,
after physicians, and all else had
failed: "I feel it my duty to parents
of other poor suffering babies to tell
rou wnat Cnticura has done for my
ittle daughter. She broke eut all
over her body with a humor, and we
used everything recommended, but
without results. I called in three doc
tors, they all claimed they could help
her, but ahe continued to grow worse.
Her body waa a mass of sores, and her
little face waa eaten away, her ears
looked aa if they would drop off.
Neighbors advised me to get Cuticura
Soap and Ointment, and before I had
used half of the cake of soap and
box of ointment the sores had all
healed, and my little one's face and
body waa as clear as a new-born babe's.
I would not be without it again if it
cost five dollars, instead of seventy-five
cents, which is all it cost us to cure
our baby, after spending many dollars
on doctors and medicines without any
benefit whatever."
SLEEP FOR BABIES ,
Rest for Mothers.
Instant relief and refreshing sleep
for skin-tortured babies, and rest for
tired, fretted mothers, in warm batha
with Cuticura Soap and gentle anoint
ings with Cnticura Ointment, the great
akin cure, and purest of emollients.
