SKIN eczema
IN WORST FORM
Black SplOtches All Over Face
Produced Severe Itching-Year's
Treatment by Physicians Did No
Good and Became Dependent
Affected Parts Now Clear as Ever
Alabama Lady's
CURE BY THE
CUTICURA REMEDIES

~About four years ago was afflicted
with black splotches all over my face
md few covering my body, which
produced severe itching irritation, and
which caused me great deal of annoy
ance and suffering, to such an extent that
was forced to call in two of the leading
physicians of my town. After thor
ough examination of the dreaded COM
plant they announced it to be skin
eczema in its worst form. They treated
me for the same for the length of one
year, but the treatment did me no good.
Finally became respondent and
decided to discontinue their services.
Shortly afterwards, my husband in read
ing copy of weekly New York
paper saw an advertisement of the Cuti-
cura Remedies. He purchased the en-
tire outfit, and after using the contents
of the first bottle of Cuticura Resolvent
in connection with the Cuticura Soap
and Ointment, the breaking out entirely
stopped. / continued the use of the
Cuticura Remedies for six months, and
after that every splotch was entirely
gone and the affected parts were left as
clear as ever. / have not felt a symp-
tom ofthe eczema since, which was three
years ago.

cured me of that dreadful disease,
eczema, but other complicated troubles
as well; and have been the means of

SIGNED ACTORS NAME
TO CHECK, is CHARGE
Man Arrested at Alexandria Hotel Is
Formally Accused Of Obtaining
Money Under False
Pretenses

Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Will
liams issued complaint against
George Buchanan yesterday afternoon,
charging him with obtaining money
under false pretenses. Buchanan was
arrested at the Alexandria hotel Mon
day night, where he is said to have at
tempted to cash check for $40.
The specific charge upon which the
warrant was issued was that Buchan-
an had telephoned to Edward B. Tracy
of the Buckeye bar and represented
himself to be Fred Maier and said he
was sending a friend of his, Allison, to
the place and for Tracy to treat him
right and let him have any money he
wanted. Some time later person, said
to be Buchanan, called at the place
and said his name was Allison, and
that he had ben sent there by Maier.
He borrowed So from the proprietor and
then departed, returning in a short
time with check for $110 made In
favor of George Allison and signed by
Lewis Stone. Allison, or Buchanan,
stated he was employed by the Lewis
Stone company and was an actor. He
declared he had just been paid his SAL
airy and wanted the check cashed
Tracy did not have the money to cash
the check, or for some reason became
suspicious and would not, and Allison
told him to lend him SO more and that
would make the amount due him $40.
Later Tracy telephoned to Maier, and
the latter informed him that he knew
nothing concerning Allison.

In othes words, the first speaker
declared that prohibition is ruin

latter speaker declared that pro-
hibition is booming the liquor bus
mess.
Keep on Fighting the Saloon. "
says the Standard OF Chicago:
The moral Of all This Is that
every minister should keep on 10
the work Of opposing the saloon
in every way possible. It is
evident that the saloon
keepers are on the run, aud the y
ought to be prOdded by the bay
onets Of the Anti-Saloon League,
they ought to be shelled by the
repeating guns from the pulpit,
they should be bombarded with ar
gumeuts from the religious press.
When saloon favOring speakers
thus acknowledge the tremendous
influence Of an aroused Christian
manhood. there is hope for futher
temperance victories.
