Clouds and the Weather.

When two weather prophets disa,
gree does it argue error or incompe-
tence in either? No, says the author
of storms and Storm Signals il
Yachting. The data upon which they
base their predictions do not always
bear one Interpretation. Thus:
Because the clouds indicate weather
in different manner according to the
geographical location of the observer
and also because they are in them
selves but byproducts of the weather
and are not causes, weather predic-
lions from clouds at sea should be tax
en- with plenty of reservation of judg-
ment. To say, for instance, that at q
"red sky at night sailors delight" is
very tuneful and possibly truthful
where knowledge is conspicuous by its
absence. but red sky at night may
mean almost anything from a surplus
of moisture in the air. meaning prob
ably rains, to a volcanic eruption 2,OoG
miles away which has sent great
clouds of dust into the air, causing the
red color by reflection and refraction
of the light rays. I

Iy Eradicated by New Skin
Remedy

Since its discovery one year ago,
poslam, the new skin remedy, has, in
its extraordinary accomplishments, ex-
ceeded the most sanguine expectations
of the eminent specialist who gave it
to the world. 1t has cured thousands
of cases of eczema and eradicated
facial and other disfgurements of
years standing. The terrible itching
attending eczema Is stopped with the
first application, giving proof of it's
curative properties at the very outset.
In less serious skin affections, such
as Pimples, rash, herpes, b1ackheads,
acne, BARRIERS itch, etc, results show
after an overnight application, only a
small quantity being required to effect
a cure. Those who use poison for
these minor skin troubles can now
avail themselves OF the special 50-cent
package, recently adopted to meet
such needs Both the 50-cent package
and the regular So jar may now be OBJ
