THIS CURIOUS THING
Is a Sweat or Excretory Gland.
Its mouth is called a PORE.
There are 7,000,000 in the human skin.
Through them are discharged many impurities;
To close them means death.
Sluggish or clogged pores mean yellow, mothy
skin, pimples, blotches, eczema.
The blood becomes impure.
Hence serious blood humors.
Perfect action of the pores
Means clear, wholesome skin,
Means pure blood,
Means beauty and health.
Cuticura Resolvent
Exerts a peculiar, purifying action upon the
skin, and through it upon the blood.
Thus its cures of distressing humors are speedy,
permanent, and economical.
Like all of the Cuticuras, it is pure, sweet,
gentle, and effective. Mothers and children
eminur suushud. are its warmest friends.

BTnfgUfa action of the pores also causes the oomplezlon sad rUIo,

These are Center Tables.
Last week we interested the men
with Office Chairs, which they ap
preciated, as we judjjc by their pur
chases. This week we will try and
interest the Ladies with Center
Tables at One-third less than former
prices. They will be displayed in
our large show window with prices
on each. A Table of this descrip
tion can be used in numbers, as
every room in the house should
possess one. They are as handy as
a shelf or mantel, and decidedly
more ornamental. Look up your
spaces and come THIS WEEK
and select a Table.
