SIMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA.
itching, Burning Skin Disease Routed
Without Use of Injurious DRUGS.

Great inventors often have been
praised for surrendering the secrets OF
their discoveries. Practically The same
thing happened in the medical world
In the case of Dr.. Decatur d. Dennis,
the eminent skin specialist of Chicago.
DR.. Dennis, i'll his own Office prac-
| tice, discovered that pure vegetable
oil of wintergreen. properly mixed with
other simple remedies was practically
a sure specific for eczema, psoriasis,
BARRIERS itch, salt rheum and other
itching skin diseases. But the oil OF
| wintergreen alone was found melfec-
| tive. 1t required other mild ingredi-
ents such as glycerine and thymol
compounded with the wintergreen to
produce the real eczema cure
This compounded d. ID. d. Prescrip-
ton positively takes away the itch at
once-the instant it is applied to the
skin. This vegetable liquid does away
with deleterious drugs so long used in
an attempt to doctor the blood where.
as modern science has determined that
eczema is first and all the time skin
disease.
! If you want to know more about the
merits of D. D. d. Prescription, call al
our store. We vouch for this remedy

MOLINE

No One Would Stand.-An unsuc-
cessful effort was made Tuesday ev-
ening by voters of the Second ward to
nominate a candidate for alderman to
fill the vacancy caused by the with
dTawal of C. " Johnson from the re-
publican ticket. The caucus was held
in Hiersemann's livery barn, with
only small attendance, and extreme
anxiety to decline seemed to possess
every man who was named for the
place once the fashion of refusing
was set.
Talk Sewer Outlet.-The city coun-
Gil of East Moline and the village
boards of Silvis and Waterfowl met
in joint session Tuesday evening in
East Moline to consider ways and
means to establish sewage systems 1t
was decided that the Silvis board,
with whom the action originated,
should reduce to writing its desires in
the matter and submit them to the
East Moline council and the Water
town town board. Each would then
consider the proposition separately
and communicate its answer to the
Silvis board The question of a sew
age system has been precipitated by
the decision of SilVis not to employ a
septic tank. If Silvis is TO drain its
sewage into the Mississippi, it mus
either join with East Moline and Wa.
| tertown to form a union sanitary
drainage district or secure a right OF
way for an outlet from East Moline
and WATERFOWL. Watertown is not al
! this time prepared to enter a union
district. but would like to have what
ever arrangement is made left open in
order that il may join when an in
creased population warrants the ex
pense. East Moline on the whole
seems to favor the union project, but
! certain Typographical problems compli
cate the situation. Whether or mo-
| Watertown or East Moline cares tC
join. the legal opinion is, Silvis may
secure a right of way for an outlet t.
the Mississippi through condemnation
proceedings.

he heard the first frog that has essay
ed to croak within earshot of him this
spring. While the frost was out of

vegetation has not advanced beyond

but have already sOwed their oats,
while considerable blowing in sod has
been done. The ground is in perfect
