"First my hair be gan to fall, then my scalp itched and burned -when I became warm. I had pimples on my scalp; my hair was falling out gradually until I had scarcely any hair on my head. I couldn't keep the dandruff off at all. My hair was dry and lifeless and I lost rest at night from tho terrible itching sensation. I would pull my hat off and scratch ray head any place I happened to be. "For several years I was bothered with pimples on my face. Some of them were hard red spots, some were full of mutter, and many blackheads. I was always picking at them and caused them to be soro. They made my face lookjso badly I was ashamed to bo seen. "I tried massage creams for my face and all kinds of hair tonic and home made remedies, but they only made things worse. Nothing did the work until I used Cuticura Soap and Oint ment. I washed my face with the Cuticura Soap, then put plenty of Cuticura Ointment on. Three mouths' use of Cuticura Soap and Ointment has made my faco as smooth and clean as can be." (Signed) C. M.

ROAD BUILPiNG EVOLUTION OF GOOD ROADS One of Greatest Factors In Campaign Is Voluntary Work Being Done, Especially In West.

And when nfter Uraddock s tragic death, In the course of his disas trous retreat, tho command devolved upon George Washington, that young Virginian officer was forced by the slow progress made over tho rough, newly cut roads to ltch camp at Fort Necessity, in southwestern Ponnsylva. nln, the scene of his first and only sur render. It was undoubtedly this bitter ex perience that gave Washington an in sight Into tho need of tho now country for improved roads, a subject which ho discussed with vigor soon afterward in correspondence with General Forbes, who succeeded in taking Fort Du, quesne only after cutting a shorter way from Carllsls through Iledford and across tho Alleghany mountains. One of the greatest factors in tho national campaign for better roads ia the voluntary work being done, espe cially in the far weBt, Robert Ilruce writes in Leslie's. Of course tho great est single example of this is the pros pective Lincoln highway from Now York to 6an Francisco, which the au tomobile and allied industries have un tlertuken to build nnd toward which aver five million dollars havo already been subscribed. In the territory west of the Mississippi river, which has no such Bources of rovenue to draw upon as the Eastern states, this voluntary effort shows itself in an increasing number of "good roads" days, when thousands of able-bodied men. fre quently headed by the governors of states, turn out and contribute tho la bor that Is just b neocssary ub cash. Sometimes it accomplishes more be cause voluntary work is uniformly en thusiastic and contagious. A fine example of this voluntary ef fort is tho building of a $G0,000 sea level causeway along tho Paclllc coast between Ventura and Santa JJarbara, Cal., shortening tho Los Angeles-San Francisco route about eight miles and saving many steep, dangerous turns over the mountains through tho Casl tas passes. The fuuds for this work were raised principally through tho Automobile club of southern Califor nia and tho causeway was constructed for use by motorists pending tho com pletion of a permanent sea level routo by the state. ROADS ARE MADE TOO WIDE? Western Roadways Are From Fifty to Sixty Feet In Width Much of Space Grown to Weeds. It is argued that as a general thing and particularly in tho West, the roads of the United States aro too wide. Tho Wost and Germany are compared In this rospoct. It is point ed out that while in Germany, where the traffic is enormous, the highways aro but 20 and 21 feet, in the West, whoro the traffic 1b comparatively light, and land worth $100 an acre, tho roadways are from fifty to sixty feet in width, 'three-fourths of which grows up in weeds nnd grass. It can hardly bo said, however, that the roads are too wide In tho. eastern states. Mountain travelers, especial ly, will smllo at tho idea of wide roads In reading of tho subject, having many a tlmo and oft met faco to fnco other travelers far from tho "wide place," with tho result that their vo hlcios had to bo taken apart and car ride by piecemeal or stood up at a dizzy anglo against the cliff while the other hugged the perilous edge of k fathomless ravine. kCJJKI PTj'w.'r &ar aria tr s-- r iST E32Pmt c3W .Jvk w WVSPi SNT'J H " t AS "S ' v V ft1! r ft!
