Cures Eczema Quickly
New Drug, PosIarn, Now obtainable in
Small Quantities.

Since its discovery one year ago,
the new drug poslam, has successfully
cured thousands Of chronic cases of
eczema and other distressing skin af-
nictions. Heretofore pOslam has been
dispensed solely for the benefit of &c
zema patients in large jars sufficient
for a months treatment. This was
found to be an inconvenience to many
thousands who use il for minor skin
troubles. such as pimples, blackheads,
herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion
blemishes. itching feet piles, etc,
which require but a small quantity to
cure. To overcome this, and in re-
Spouse to urgent appeals, the dis
pensers of pOslam have been obliged
to adopt. In addition TO the regular
two-dollar package. a special fitty-cent
size, which in the future may be found
on sale at w. H. SudhOff's and other
leading drug stores in Richmond, or
may be ordered direct from the Emer-
gency Laboratories, No. 80 West 23th
street, New York City. In all eczema
cases poslam stops itching with first
application, and proceeds to heal i'm
mediately; chronic cases being cured
in two weeks. In less serious skin
troubles, results are seen after an Ov-
ernight application.
Samples for experimental purposes
may still be had, free of charge, by
writing to the laboratories for them

DO CONSUMERS
GET SHORT END?
Stated That the Local Ice
Monopoly Is Giving
Short Weights.
CITY COUNCILMEN TALK.
2EEMED TO BE THE GENERAL
cONcENSUS OF OPINION THAT
ICE CONSUMERS IN RICHMOND
WERE BEING "STUNG"

While B. B. Johnson. Of the firm of
johnson & Rettig- the local ice
trust"-was attending a meeting of the
board of public works last evening,
Councilman Henry w Deuker arose
from his seat in the council chamber
and stated that several people had
complained to him that the ice trust
was selling short weights in ice.
Councilman Harvey Brown stated
that last summer hundreds of people
had made similar complaints. He
said that he was of the opinion that
the ice delivery men distributed the
ice without weighing it and he would
not be surprised if some of the deliv-
cry wagons were without scales.
Councilman Barte1 stated that Mr..
Rettig had informed him that before
the ice was placed in the wagons each
cake was carefully weighed and that
these cakes generally weighed more
than they were expected TO, because al
lowance for melting had to be made.
This statement caused all of the
councilmen to laugh, and it was the
SChCldl OpIiIoH tIldI the maj hcI
ter, who has charge of the inspection
of weights and measures. should get
busy and take steps to protect the pub
lie from short weights Of ice. Coun-
Gilman Brown ended the discussion on
the ice question with the remark that
even though the ice trust weighed
each cake of ice before it was placed
~ hn loI - l,
that the consumers got the short end"

MUNICIPAL HARMONY
Series of Sunday Band Con-
Certs Will Be Given at
Glen Miller Park.
BAND NOT SELECTED YET.

Under suspension Of the rules the
city council last evening, appropriated
500 to assist i'll defraying the eX-
pense of having band concerts at Glen
Miller park every Sunday during the
summer season. The street car COM
pany with its usual generosity has ap-
propriated 500 for this purpose and
the party who has the refreshment
privileges at the park will be asked to
produce $50 which will be added to the
fund. The two local bands will be
asked to submit bids for giving Sun
day concerts and the organization
handing in the lowest bid will be the
one TO furnish the municipal harmony.
Councilman Brown had no obiec-
ton but he thought the concerts
should be given at the other parks.
Not everyone in the city, the sick and
the aged for instance, could go to the
Glen to hear these concerts.
Mr.. Brown also expressed a hope
that the street car company. which
will transport nearly all the people
who attend these concerts, would not
be embarrassed financially by its gen.
erous contribution.

a man NOT Saited,

A FRESHMAN" at college is man
not salted." 1t was anciently a Gus
tom in many colleges (as it is today to
play practical jokes on the newcomers.
One of the most common Of these jokes
was to assemble them in a room and
make them deliver a speech. Those
who acquitted themselves we'll had a
cup Of "caudle," those who barely pass
ed muster had a caudle with salt wa
ter. while the rest had the salt water
only. Before this ordeal had been gone
through they were all ''freshmen"-had
not been sailed. In the meantime the
name somehow stuck to them until
they had finished their first year at
college, when they ceased to be fresh
men.-New York American.

WATCRDOGS OF
TREASURY BARK
Matter of Spending a Few DOL
lars for Municipal Leagues
Is the Cause. ,0..z.
BARTEL WAS ON THE SPOT.
HE OBJECTED TO SPENDING A
SMALL AMOUNT FOR DELEGATE
TO NATIONAL MEETING AND
THOUGHT 1T NO USE.

The city council turned watchdog of
he public treasury last evening when
the mayor presented a communication
from the League of American munich
palities inviting this city to be repre-
scented at the annual meeting which
will be held in Omaha the latter part
of September and inviting the mayor
or some one selected by him to appear
on the program. Accompanying the
communication was a bill for SO, the
annual dues of this city to the league.
If the city paid these dues would the
dear taxpayer stand for such eXtrava
gance?
This was the question which CON
fronted council and it provoked much
feverish excitement Councilman
Bartel, head keeper of the treasury
watch dog, promptly arose and made
a motion that both the communica-
ton and the bill' be placed on file. He
said that only the larger cities of the
country were members of this Organi-
zation and that he did not see how
Richmond would benefit much by be-
longing to it. He also pointed out that
it would cost money, real money, to
send delegates to this convention. Mr..
Bartel stated that Richmond was a
member of the Municipal League of
Indiana and that he thought that it
was only necessary for this city to be
a member of that organization.
Councilman LeftwirN made a motion
to amend the Bartel motion by
amending it to read that the bill and
the communication be referred to the
board of public works. This amend
ment was carried.
An invitation for this city to be rep
resented at the annual meeting of the
Municipal League of Indiana was re-
ceived and it was stated that in the
event this city was represented at this
meeting, which will be held at La
porte, more money would have to be
appropriated to defray the expenses of
the local delegates than was apprO-
priated for this purpose last year
when the meeting was held at Logans-
port 1t was pointed out that La
porte was considerable distance from
Richmond. Last year 500 was apprO-
priated for the expenses of the local
delegation. The remembrance of this
caused the eyeballs of the watch dogs
to bulge with horror. but their lacerat-
ed feelings were somewhat sOOthed
when Controller Parry stated that only
$S1 of this money had been spent
Council finally decided to shoulder on
to the mayor the responsibility of de-
Gliding whether or not Richmond
should be represented at the state
meeting.

1t is rather expensive, but it is wise-for you,

There is food like wheat
Other cereals may be used, for little time,
for variety. But the staple is always wheat.
Whole wheat alone contains all the needed
food elements in properly balanced form.
So we use for Mapl.Flake the finest wheat
In America.
But wheat must be cooked-cooked more than
the usual-else it is half indigestbe.
The atoms must be separated-by fierce
heat-so the digestive juices can get to them.
Not half the wheat that people eat is subject
70 digestion.
The balance is wasted. 1t ferments and forms
gas 1t leads to digestive disorders.
That's why we spend full Sc hours in prepar-
ing Mapl.Flake.
We steam-cook the wheat for six hours. Think
of that!
Then we cure it for days-a partial digestive
process.
Then each separate berry is faxed so thin that
the full heat of our ovens can attack every atom.
