Bombay has assumed unbearable pro

¢itals from Kebit and Marabal never
fail to touch the innermost chords

MThen there are lay beggars and re
ligious beggars, the ash MHesmeared ase
cetics who practice mendicancy as 2
hereditary profession, Last and not
least are the . unfortunate sufferers
whom the loss of limbs or eyes Or
some fell disease disables for work
and drives them to beggary as the
last redource. These latter have a
genuine claim on our charity, but as
there are so few asylums in Indla
for the halt, the maim and the blind
the streetg and byways of townsg are
flocded with beggars, pitiful types of
suffering humanity.—Rash Gaftar.

l “Qur son, two years old, was afflicted

' to keep him from tearing the’fles_h open

" intense. The skin on his back became hard
and rough like the bark on a tree. He
. suffered intensely for about three months.
" But I found a remedy in Cuticura Soap and

' magical. That was more than two years
