Caused Hair to Fall Out in Comb- fuls, Kept Awake at Night, Cuti- cura Soap and Ointment Healed. 105 Village St., Medway, Mass.—" My sister’s hives began with intense itching under the skin all around her neck and way up on her head so that she had to keep her hair loosely () braided. The breaking out was unsightly and the itch- ing on her neck was so bad she could not keep hec hands away from it. Perhaps that is why it spread way up to the top of her head and caused her hair to fall out in combfuls. It also kept her awake at night. Fiery red spots broke out later that caused much disfigurement and the itching and burning were intense. “After about two weeks suffering she commenced using Cuticura Soap and Oint- ment, Relief from the burning and itching came very soon and two weeks from that time she was entirely healed.” (Signed) Mrs. F.

GREAT WELCOME FOR 'WILSON AND FIANCEE Thousands in vNerw York Cheer President and Bride-Elect New York, Oct. 9.—President Wil- son and his fiancee, Mrs. Norman Galt, came to New York yesterday for a brief visit to the president’s closest friend, Colonel E. M. House. From the time of their arrival yes- terday afternoon until late last night they were New York’s chief ob- jects of interest and each time they appeared in public they were followed by thousands. For the first time since he became president, Mr. Wilson gave way as a center of attraction to another. The people showed anxiety to see him, but their eyes were centered on the wo- man who, within the next two months, is to become the ‘first lady of the land.” Pleased By Reception. Both the president and Mrs. Galt were evidently pleased by the recep- tion accorded them. Both were'slight- ly shy on their first appearance in public as an engaged couple, but ac- cepted applause with smiles. They made no attempt to hide themselves and every time they appeared in pub- lic they were side by side. The presi- dent gave himself up for the time being to entertaining his flancee. He was happy and jovial throughout the day and his usually stern face was constantly wreathed in smiles. The program of the couple includ- ed a long automobile ride through the parks, a dinner party last evening at the home of Colonel and Mrs. Houase, and a theater party last night. Today they left at 11 o'clock for Philadel- phia, where they plan to witness the second game of the world series base- ball championship. Immediately after that they will go to Washington on a special train, Applauded At the theater last night “Grumpy” was the play, but the president and Mrs. Galt were easily the stars of the evening. As they entered the theater the entire audience arose and ap- plauded. The applause continued un- til the president, Mrs. Galt and Miss Helen Woodrow Bones, the president’s cousin, appeared in their box and were seated. Several hundred persons were gath. ered at the Pennsylvania station waen the couple arrived. They were ac- 1 companied by Mrs. W. H. Bolling, | Mrs. Galt’s mother; Miss Bones, Sec- | retary Tumulty and Dr. Cary T. Grayson, U. S, N., the president phy- sician and naval aide. . An unusually large number of secret service men headed by Chief Flynn was with tkem. Crowd Cheers Mrs. Galt. Colonel House and Dudley .veld Malone, collector of the port of New York, were at the station to greet the president and his party, and hurried them into a limousine. The crowd cheered and applaudéd and pushed forward for a chance to see the future Mrs. Wilson. She beamed upon the crowd and the president looked at her and smiled. “They are applauding you,” he said. Along streets where everybody seemed to recognize the couple in the automabile, the presidential party was driven to the hotel, where Mrs. Galt, Mrs. Bolling and Dr. Grayson spent the night. The president was then driven to Colonel House’s apartment on East Fifty-third street. Held Up By Photographers, After a brief interval, the start was made on a long automobile ride. Mrs. Galt, Mrs, Bolling, the president and Dr. Grayson rode in the car and they were easily recognized. The pres dent called at Mrs. Galt’s hotel for her. As the party left the hotel they were held up a few minutes by a large corps of photographers. The president | ana Mrs. Galt, sat smilingly, side by side. their pictures were snapped. Ea the ride the president’s | familiar face was recognized by auto- mobilists and pedestrians and people turned, bowed, smiled and waved handkerchiefs and hats. Frequently the president raised his hat in reply and Mrs. Galt bowed and smiled. Automobile parties sought to get near the president's car to see ‘the | couple, and as a result before he had in Theater. on IS ONNEK | Naval Consulting Board Begins Work By Deciding To Build Big Laboratory ULTING BOARD. (0 INDICATES First Vice Chairman The first concrete result of the pre lizninary labors of the naval con-! sulting board on inventions, created by Secretary Daniels, developed when | formal announcement was made that the board had unanimously approved a plan for the establishment of a great research and laboratory for the United States navy. The plan, as adopted, was proposed ! by Thomas A, Edison, chairman of | the board. It calls for the establish- ment of a laboratory at a cost of $5,000,000 for grounds, buildings and experimental a large city. equipment, to be operated at an an- nual expenditure of from $2,500,000 to $3,000,000. The board recom- mends that the laboratory be located on tidewater of sufficient depth to permit a dreadnought to come to the dock, and that it be near, but not in, As thus described the laboratory would be near some large port on the Atlantic coast. It could not be located at Washington because the depth of water in the Potomac river is not great enough to permit dreadnoughts to go to the city.

Tried all sorts of rem- edies and physicians, but obtained only temporary relief. As soon as I began to use Grape-Nuts the cramps disappeared and have never returned. My old attacks of sick stomach were a little slower to yield, but by continuing the food, that trouble has disappeared entirely. I am today | perfectly well, can eat anything and thing 1 wish, without paying the penalty that I used to. We would not | keep house without Grape-Nuts. “My husband was so delighed with the benefits I received that he has been recommending Grape-Nuts to hi customers and has built up a very | large trade on the food. He sells it to | many of the leading physicians of the county, who recommend Grape-Nuts | very generally. There is some satis- faction in using a really scientifically ! prepared food.”” ‘“There’s a Reason.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Ever read the above letter?
