EGZEIKzA, IS
ITCH rs TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
fa1nmaton little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and fssured.. Eczema in any
form is a tornlenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearabie; the acid burning
hu,nor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on FIRE. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good. for as
long as the poison remains il the blood
1t Will keep the skin irr!tated.

Government Take, Whisky

Tacoma--The Northern Commercial Company Is reported by men who ar rived al Skagway last week to have lost 10000 gallons ot liquor at Dawson through its seizure by customs of hcials. because the company had no permit to land l.. The company made streuous efforts 10 purchase a liquor permit. owned by Robert Lowe of White Horse. but failed. after using 2 the telegraph wires vigorously for sev- eral days.
 Knowledge of the situation became public through these telegrams sent to Lowe. The liquor In question was shipped from San Francisco to St. Mlcheal last spring. and there trans ferred to the steamers of the lowe. river. Most of it was taken to Daw- son On tho Steamer Sarah.
 Just why the company should have taken such desperate chances, when a permit could have been obtained by pur hase cannot be understood on the Upper Yukon. Under the existing rules customs officials can take no other course than 10 conhscate the entire lOt of whisky. They are now watch ing for a shipment sent up the river from s. Micheal by Black Sullivan a Dawson liquor dealer.
