On Hands, Feet and Face Caused by Poison Oak and Ivy Was Unable to Rest Night or Day Developed into Eczema, which Affected Whole of System Suffered 4 Years Without Relief, CURED BY THE CUTICURA REMEDIES "A healthy person does not heed statements made by sick people, but if such persons suffer from poisonous weeds, a. remedy is anxiously desired. I suffered severely for four years from poison oak and ivy. My condition was serious, as I could not rest night or day and be free from a terrible itching sensation from scratching on my hands between the fingers, my feet and face. I got the best of advice and treatment from six different doctors who were anxious to cure me.

One of the doctors told me that when the poison was cured, ecxema (a worse disease) would follow, which became true. My eyesight was affected, and I went to a hospital especially for the eyes and got relief, but eczema got a terrible hold on my system. "I was about to give up all hope of ever being cured, yet I could not be reconciled to such results, as my health had been good and free from any disease all my life. My age is seventy three years. In my extremity I happened to read of Cuticura Remedies for skin diseases, and wrote you to please send me a supply of the Cuticura Remedies.

I was anxious about my condition and desired to evade any spurious imitation. This was in July, 1905, and I was instructed to call on a certain druggist for the Cuticura Remedies. I bought rive boxes Cuticura Ointment also some Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Pills as I required them. In four weeks' treat ment my face was smooth, and the itching gradually left my hands and feet and I could rest comfortably, for which I am grateful and happy. W.

O'Malley Glynn, "Home of Good Shoes." MAIN AND JACKSON. Devine's Weekly Letter We seem this season to be winning more new friends than ever through our free trousers offer.

I presume this is due to the sale now being such a wellknown affair. Nearly every one knows that we make this offer every six months just as regularly as June and December come up on the calendar. Everyone knows, too, that when they get these free trousers they get something as good as a note, and that it comes to them free as the air. It is all done to follow out that ten year old custom of the English Woolen Mills Co. Every one of their nineteen stores make this offer twice a year just to attract all who doubt that good tailoring can be produced at $15.

Don't you think that if made to order clothes can be had at prices lower than readymade, you ought to wear them? Just come for free samples and see what can be missed by those who do not investigate. Order any suiting or topcoating, at our regular prices, then choose any panting to be made to your measure free of all cost to you. Yours truly, JOHN H. DEVINE, Manager English Woolen Mills Store. 227 Lackawanna Ave.
