New Discovery Cures Eczema and

New Discovery cures Eczsms and
Graduates Minor Skin Troubles
Overnight.
A few months ago the dispensers of
poslam, the new discovery for the cure
Of eczema. decided to allow the drug
gists of the country to handle 1t. Pre-
vious to that time 1t could only be OBJ
tanned directN from the laboratories.
Since this change in the method Of
distribution, poslam has met with the
most phenomenal success of anything
introduced to the drug trade in the
last 80 years All leading druggists, In
Guiding Mcbride & VIII Drug COM
pany, MarShalltown, are now carrying
the special 50-cent size recently
adopted. also the 81 jar.
This great success Is not surprising
when it is remembered that, in eczema
cases, poslam stops the itching with
first application, proceeds to heal i'm
and cures chronic cases in
q few weeks. In minor skin troubles,
such as pimples, blackheads, acne,
herpes, blotches, rash, ETC., results
show after an overnight application.
Experimental samples of poslam are
sent to anyone by mail free of charge.

tract, which the two persons becoming
engaged must sign. This same contract
must be signed, either by the Parish priest
/ OF the place or the bishop OF the diocese,
or if the signature of neither the parish
priest nor the bishop can he had, then it
! is necessary to have two other witnesses
present who must sign the written en-
gagement.
1t is not to be understood from this
that no one can be married who has not
first been engaged as just described; nor
| is there any sin in,or prohibition against,
the "engagements'' of the past being en-
tered into in future. What does follow
is this :-"That no agreement or contract,
what manner soever it is entered into,
shall be considered by the church. or
have any canorical effects, or be regarded
as binding upon any party, unless it can
be proved that a contract was written,
signed and witnessed as already de
scribed." So, either the document must
be presented or witnesses must prove that
it was really drawn up and signed, before
action can be taken by the church after
April IL. 1905
The church by thus dignifying the
marriage engagement will no doubt lessen
the number of thong entanglements
to which youth is prone, and the often
consequent breach of promise that gives a
dishonorable escape from an irksome re-
sponsibility.

Death of George Partridge.

! George Partridge, aged 20. one of tn
| best-known Independent oil operators il
I the West, died at his home, 3142 Twenty
| first street. San Francisco. Cal, early tn
morning of March y from the genera
I infrmities of old age.
| Mr.. Partridge was born at Randolph
/ Center, Aug. %, 1929. the son Of Crane
Partridge, leading resident of the Cen
| ter in its carly days and a cabinet, sleigh
and carriage maker whose work wa
known far and near for its excellence. 81
excellent indeed were his sleighs that on,
of them, now belonging TO c. r. Grang
er, is still in service in this village.
George Partridge is remem bered in
Randolph as the boy printer. With hi.
brother, Henry, he published the Au.
tumn Leaf, The Enterprise and Nonpa,
reil, making the press and fixtures of the
office himself when but IS years of age
and that, too, without having ever seen
the inside of a regular printing Office.
The Autumn Leaf was printed three
months; then he made a larger press and
The Enterprise was launched, the edi-
tors being Rev. G. V. Markham and Prof.
1. H. Stafford. This paper, after being
printed monthly for a year, was succeed
ed by the Nonpareil, a monthly quarto OF
high literary excellence, printed at Hart
ford. Conn, with an editor for Ran
dolph.
Mr.. Partridge fitted for college at the
old academy and entered Amherst in
1850. Upon his graduation in 1851, he
went to Alabama as private tutor for
some wealthy cotton planter and was la
ter professor in the Tuskegee Female col
Iege and principal of the academy at
Houston, Tex.
He next turned his attention to the law
and was admitted to the bar at Madran,
Wis. He began practising in 1859 at st.
Louis and during the first months OF the
Civil war it was his fortune to be ap-
pointed attorney for the first military
commission organized by General Ere
mont in St. Louis.
At the close Of the war, Mr.. Partridge
became interested in the petroleum bust
ness and put down several wells in Ohio,
Kentucky and West Virginia, only one of
which produced oil and that of so heavy a
grade no market could be found for it.
Branching out into the wholesale oil bus
mess, he built refinery at st. Louis that
he sold to the Standard monopoly in
1876. Two years afterwards he began
mining at Leadville, Col, with fair sue
cess, and during the rest OF his life kept
in touch with miningN affairs, publishing
at San Francisco a paper devoted to that
interest.
He was a ready writer of cultivated lit
erary taste and contributed to this paper
many very entertaining sketches Of his
early days "On the hill" He WAS long a
of the Springfield Republic
can and among his articles were accounts
of his life in the South and of the war as
it was waged in Missouri.
He was he oldest member of Psi Upsi-
Ion college fraternity in the United States
and was largely instrumental in estab-
fishing chapter of that fraternity in the
OF California several years
ago.
Mr. Partridge left four daughters
Grace (Partridgej Hays, Jennie J., and
Nellie NJ. Partridge, ali of San Francisco,
and Mrs. Nathan p. Taylor of Kentucky.

The New Marriage Law.

To guard against hasty and ill-advised
marriages. the Roman Catholic church en-
acted a new law Aug. of last year that
goes into eff ct in every parish Easter
day, April 10.
TerritCrially, it is for the whole world ;
personally, it is for everyone who is or
ever was a Catholic. Hence it is the same
in every part of the entire world, and
there is no possibility of a person going
from one place to another in the hope of
thus escaping it. Every individual who
was ever baptized i'll the Catholic church,
or u no was ever a member of the church
by conversion from any form of monica
thOliCism, whether he continues in the
church or is fallen away from 1t, is in
all cases obliged to comply with the pro-
visions of this new enactment. 1t is to
be particularly noted that this law affects
the individual, and not merely the couple.
So every Catholic, and all who were at
ANY time members of the church by bap-
tism or by conversion to it, whether they
marry among themselves or marry nom
Catholics, come under the strict provis-
ions of this law. Even when a Catholic
is granted a dispensation to contract mar
rage with a non-Catholic, he or she, the
Catholic party, does not thereby secure
any freedom from the effects Of this new
legislation.
The divisions of the law have reference
both to the engagement" or espousal,
and to the marriage contract. A valid
engagement produces certain effects
recognized in canon law, and those be-
come impedments, under certain circum-
stances, to a future marriage.
In future there can be no question con-
corning the validity of an engagement"
as the new decree is perfectly clear on that
point I'm order that an engagement
be valid, it must be in writing. signed by
both the man and the woman il they are
able to write, otherwise a witness repre-
senting them must be present and sign
the document, in which the inability of
the parties to write must be mentioned, all
of which is to be done in the presence of
the parish priest or the bishop, or two
other witnesses whose signatures are also
attached to this contract" An ''engage-
ment'' must therefore be a written con-

FRAUD CHARGED IN ELECTION.
Popcorn Man Arrested on Charge of
Illegal Voting in ReIoit.

Beloit.-Several men in Beloit have
been through the sweat box regarding
the alleged election irregularities
which are said to have prevailed on
April I, and which were investigated
by District Attorney John l.. Fisher.
One arrest was made and BelOit peo-
pie expected more sensations. James
sherman, who has conducted a pop
corn stand, was arrested for illegal
voting. Sherman said that he did not
know that he could not vote here and
that he had talked with Beloit Sa
loonkeeper who told him it would be
all right for him to vote. The com
mon council authorized the investiga-
ton several weeks ago. The special
committee was composed OF Alderman
Janvrin, Ingersoll, Dowd, Warner and
Hanson. They have placed all the
material they gathered in the hands Of
the district attorney. Illegal regis
tration illegal voting, colonization of
voters, improper conduct at the polls,
