ITCH u, a A

In July, 1888, I began to break ont with
Eczema on my head, legs ard arms, and
began treatment with local doctors, but
did not get much relief. They said the dis
ease had become chronic. I then quit them
and tried various ointments and soaps for
another two years, but as soon as cold
weather came was as bad off as ever, so
finally decided to let medicine alone, and
for twelve or thirteen years did nothing
towards curing tho Eczema, except bath
ing. This seemed to do about as much
good as anything I had tried.
During the time I lost about oue-half of
nv hair. began S. S. S. doubtful of
cure, because the disease had run so long,
but soon discovered your medicine was
doing me good, and continued to take it.
I used seven bottles, when I was COM

my body, which before was almost com.
pletely covered. r. c. NORFOLK.

The head, feet and hands are usually
the parts affected, though the disease ap-
pears on other parts of the body. While cx-
ternal applications allay the itching and
burning temporarily, it is the acids thrown
off by the blood that cause the irritation
and eruptions upon the skin. The acids
must be neutralized and the system cleans

bright and good looking paper and has
as its motto: For the masses and not

ty vigorous criticism of the Times
Dispatch for what it calls debated
editorial" commencing the Corpora
ton Commission and particularly its
chairman. 1t seems that the chairman
of the Commission and clerk and
stenographer interested themselves in
organizing the Virginia Corporation
Company, Inc. and subscribing to it's
stock. The clerks and ster/grapher
were dismissed with ignominy, says
the Journal, while the chairman. who
admits his error, is retained. The Jour
nal thinks chairman, clerks and ste
nographer should be treated alike. III
they all erred alike, the Journals po-
sition is the only terable and fair
course to pursue. To forgive the chair
man and fire the clerks and stenog-
rapher, if all were alike censurable,
will not be approved by men who love

Deliver" propositions, or take a sand
bagging, for Mr.. Andrews proceeds to
remark:
There should be no question of the
acceptance by North Carolina of such
reasonable basis for the adjustment
of this debt. The coercive measures
which may be brought to. bear leave
no other recourse to the State.' The
dilemma presented lies between q
prompt and polite meeting with her
creditors and the subiection to far
heavier burdens. The Federal consti-
tuition cOnfers power on the United
States courts to exert this process
against States of the Union at the
suit of foreign governments and of
sister States Such bodies polite may
be qualified as suitors before the Su-
preme Court of the United States by
the acquisition of special tax bonds.
1.-The Legislature of the State OF
New York enacted a law on May 16,
1905, which has an important bearing
on the collection of this debt. BY its
provisions, this State undertakes to ac-
cept assignments of defaulted state
obligations, and to enforce them by her
authority.
s'Where the debtor is as solvent as
North Carolina, and possesses prop
erty as easily reached as her railroad
assets sales of her obligations may
now be effected to competent govern

The transfer of these bonds, with ac-
crued coupons, to foreign governments
would subject North Carolina to oner-

special taxes. AS the accumulated in
