DANDRUFF COVERED TOP. OF BABY'S HEAD. " Warbicn-btbsbt, Lily Estate, Toowomba, Queensland.When my "baby girl was three months old all her hair began to fall off, and to my horror I. found the top part of the head covered with a dry scurf or dandruff just like white scabs. Baby was too young .to scratch it. but it made her very cross and irritable, and after bathing it and drying it with the towel it used to often bleed My neighbour told me to rub fresh butter on it at night, but this brought no relief and several other friends told me to put salad oil and another castor oil. I used all these together with soap, and several other kinds of skin soap, but nothing seemed to take the scabs off permanently. It would fall off, only to come back thicker than ' ever, and when the hair began to grow at the back the front was just a mass of white sores. "I then heard of the wonderful results which were being obtained from using Cuticura Soap and Cutioura Ointment, so decided to try them, and found to my great joy that the white scabs began to come off quite easily, and after using three cakes of Cuticura Soap and one small tin of Ointment my baby is quite cured, and I am sure the cure is permanent; and now my baby at one year and six months has got a lovely 'i head of hair, after suffering twelve months with this dreadful disease.—(Signed) Mrs A. P. Hanson. November 10, 1911." ' , Although Cuticura Soap and Ointment are sold throughout the world, a sample of each with 32-page Skin Book, will be mailed free on application to R. Towns and Co. Dept. M., Sydney, N.S.W. The Question of the Day.— question of to-day or to-morrow, and of every succeeding day. 8: Have you used Pears' Soap? if you have not. you have not done your dutv by your skin and complexion.
