SKIN DISEASES
HUMORS IN THE BLOOD

When the blood is pure, fresh and healthy, the skin will be soft, smooth
and free from blemishes, but when some acid humor takes root In the circu-
iation its presence is manifested BY a skin eruption or disease. These
hunors get into the blood, generally because Of all inactive or sluggish
condition OF the members of the body whose duty 1t is to collect and carry
of the waste and refuse matter Of the system. This unhealthy matter Is left
to sour and fement and soon the circulation becomes charged with the acid
poison. The blood begins to throw off the humors and acids through the
pores and glands Of the skin, producing Eczema, Acne, letter, Psoriasis,
Salt Rheum and skin erupions OF various kinds. Eczema appears, usually
with a slight redncas OF the skin followed By pustulcs from which there
flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching Is intense.
II is generally on the back. breast, face, arms and legs, though other parts
OF the body may be affected. In letter the skin dries, cracks and bteds;
the acid in the blood dries up the natural oils Of the skin, which are intended
to keep it soft and plant, causing a dry, feversh condition and giving it
hard, leathery appearance. Acne makes its appearance on the face In the

land For Conspiracy.

New York, May 2l.-In handsome
touring car Abraham Hummel left his
home in East Seventy-Second street
yesterday to go to Blackwells island
to serve a year in the penltentiary for
conspiracy in the celebrated Dodge.
Morse divorce case.
few years ago Hummel enjoyed an
extensive practice as lawyer, having
as clients some of the best known &C.
tors and actresses in this country, but
his conduct of the now famous divorce
case resulted in his disbarment and
the humiliation he now suffers.
His method of going to the peni.
tentiary was almost on par with his
farewell dinner given few nights
ago at which he bade farewell to about
a dozen friends prior to his imprison-
ment. About 100 curious spectators
and reporters were gathered in front
of his residence at II o'clock when Mr..
Hummel endeavored to depart for
Blackwell's island without observa.
ton
An automobile had been standing at
the curb for several hours. One of
Mr. Humme's friends left the house
and entering the machine was whisked
away in it. The spectators followed 1t
short distance and returned TO the
house just as it drew up to the curb
again Then Hummel, holding a hand
kerchief before his face to prevent
snap shot picture being taken of him,
ran from the basement door, jumped
into the tonneau and it dashed away.
For about three hours he took
ride around the city and then surren.
dered himself to a deputy sheriff, who
took him by an unfreQuented route to
Blackwell's island. He will be put to
work in the bakery.

sign Bagleys pastor. Besides music
by military bands there was a chill
drens chorus of 25O voices.
In the procession were Confederate.

school children.
The oration was by Congressman
Richmond Pearson Hobson of Ala
bama, and there was an address by
Lieutenant Victor Blue of the navy,

On behalf of the alumni of the Unit.
ed States naval academy a tribute to
Bagley was paid by Colonel John
