FOR PIMPLEs, TOO
New Discovery Cures Eczema and
Eradicates 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 it. Pre-
vious to that time it could only be OBJ
tanned direct from the laboratories.
Since this change in the method OF
distribution, poslam has met with the
most phenomenal success of any
thing introduced to the drug trade IN
the last 80 years. All leading drug
gists. including Coughlin's Pharmacy
in Augusta are now carrying the spe-
cial 5O-cent size recently adopted, also
the 81 jar.
This great success is not surprising
when it is remembered that in eczema
cases, posam stops the itching with
first application, proceeds to heal i'm
mediately, and cures chronic cases IN
a 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,
by the Emergency Laboratories, ~

DROWNED IN RIVER.
John Joseph Andrade Commits Suicide
In kennebec Monday Morning.

John Joseph Andrade, aged about
81 years and unmarried, q former en-
ploye of the Edwards mills and a ma
tive of Portugal, committed suicide
at about o'clock Monday morning by
drowning in the kennebec river a
short distance below the Eaton shoe
factory The act is supposed to have
been due to dependency caused by ill
health.
The man was seen to enter the
water and disappear by one of the
patients at the Insane hospital W1o
notified an attendant, who in turn
notified City Marshal Fletcher. and
that officer at once secured grapples
and taking Officer Colgan and Chief
Engineer Buckley with him got a boat
and went to the scene of the drown
ing.
The body was recovered at about 10
o'clock and after being viewed by
Coroner H. w. Plummer, who deemed
an inquest unnecessary, was taken to
the undertaking rooms of the II. w.
Plummer Co. on Bridge street, where
it now awaits the arrival of relatives.
4 brother of the deceased is expected
to arrive today.
The case was undoubtedly one of
suicide. The man had removed por-
ton of his clothing and laid it on the
river bank, and then waded out into
deep water and went down. When the
body was recovered it was clothed
with two shirts, drawers and hose.
Andrade lived at Mill block on WASH
ington street extension.
