On Mother's Body. Cajsed Her
To Scratch. Could Not Sleep.
" My mother was troubled with a
breaking out of pimples on her body.
The itching was very severe and
caused her to scratch, which seemed
to make the breaking out spread,
and she could not sleep good at
night.
"The trouble lasted about four
weeks. She tried several remedies
but none of them were successful.
She began using Cuticura Soap and
Ointment and after using one cake
of Soap and one box of Ointment
she was completely healed(Signed)

Beauty Aids
Hide Nature,
Says Dean
Detroit, Oct. 6.—Artificial aids to
beauty, used by the flapper of today,
robs her of individuality, but It Is
not a moral Issue, and the world Is
all wrong In making a fuss over It,
in the opinion of Miss Jean Hamil
ton, of New York, who recently took
over her new duties as dean of wo
man at the University of Michigan.
"Paint and powder, short skirts
and bobbed hair Is not a moral issue
an essential, so why fuss so much
over it," she questions.
"My chief objection to paint and
powder, the lip stick and the e'( nga
tcd eyebrow Is that it takes so much
variety out of the human counten
ance. On Broadway as one walk}
down one meets an everlasting pro
cession of young women, all rouged
and powdered, all using Up itli'V and
eyebrow brush and color of the sime
type, In the same way.
"It takes frdm the humnn being
Its humanness; it is too much like
looking at a window display of high
painted dolls.
"But it will pass In time, just as
the short skirt and the bobbed blir
is passing, and oveutUJlly we will get
back to normal again, I expect. 1
hope so, at any rate, If only for the
sake of variety again
"It seems to me that failing of old
er people Is partly responsible for
the fact that the youngt" generation
despises supervision."
Miss Hamilton's life has been spent
with girls of the ago ot college girls.
As to policies. Miss Hamilton hab
not yet decidej on any policies as tc
the conduct of her office \ere. She Is
going to spend some tlrao getting ac
quainted first.
"First, I must acquaint myself with
the traditions and customs of the
university. I "hail wor* along with
the policies now here and the cus
toms already established until I find <
myself."

Autumn Styles
Match Nature's
Season Colors
London, Oct. 30.—Autumnal stylos
will harmonize with the autumnal |
decorations of nature.
This is the edict of England's fast>
ionable dressmakers *vho are Just
opening their fall fashion shows.
"The leading colors for the au
tumn are all the shades of nature
at this season," said ReviHe, the
court dressmaker.
"A handful of autumn leaves will
give most of the new tones—deep
russet, copper beech, flame color,
orange, and a new shade of ochre
that looks like plain leaves in the
September sunshine will be most
prominent.
"There is also a quite new shade
of blue that is something like an in
tense cornflower—* very rich color
blending between pansy shades of
blue and purple.
"The new line of fashion follows
the line of the figure and is, in my |
opinion, much more feminine than,
some recent fashions. There Is noth-l
ing grotesque about It.
"Waist lines arj more normal—the
new styles show no exaggerated
'waist' right up under tl:e arras or
down towards the knees.
"Skirls are longer without being
too long, neither are they too short.
\ woman can study her individuality
and style so far as the length of her
skirt is concerned this autumn, and
dress to suit It.
"One thing Is that the autumn
fashions demand a corseted figure.
"No well-dressed woman can do
without corsets this season: they are
eseseniial to give the natural contour
of the new waist."
Monkey fur is being used exten
sively as a trimming, while a popu
lar st>le has a real basque of fur
about the hips. The revival of the
basque on conts is Interesting.
Sleeves are in extremes, either
being very much In evidence or non
existent. The mitten sleeve, which is
long and tight-fittrng and comes
down well over the hand, is used on
many coats and frocRs and some af
ternoon gowns. There is a tendency
to return to the old-time leg-of-mut
ton effect at the shoulder.
Many of the afternoon gowns are
sleveless. Apron tunics are popular.
Hats are for th most part small,
the toques worn by Queen Mary hav
ing their effect in the showing of nu
merous close-fitting models.
Altogether the aixumnal styles In
dicate a gradual return to the styles
of the day when ml-lady was more
modest than she has been wont to be
In these post-war hectic days.

Mrs. E. J. Knight, Washington

ruij down and suffered from a lame
back. A dull ache In the small of
my back made m<j feel miserable.
My kidneys acted Irregularly, caus
ing much annoyance. I suffered from
severe pains in the back of my head
and was all out of sorts. A neigh
bor told me to try Doan's Kidney
Pills and four boxos relieved me of
the backache and put my kidneys
in a healthy condition."

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot roach
the diseased portion of the esr. There la
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal rvafnea* Is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining oi
the Eustachian Tube. Wuen this tub® Is
Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or lm*
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. Deafness Is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to Its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caus'-d by catarrh, which la
an inflamed condition of the mucous iur*
faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of ths
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannbt
