SIMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA
Itching, Burning Skin Disease Routed
Without Use of Injurious Druqs

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 ID.
Dennis, the eminent skin specialist
OF Chicago.
DR.. Dennis, in his Own office prac.
tee, discovered that pure vegetable
OIL OF wintergreen. properly mixed
with other simple remedies was prac-
tically a sure specific for Eczema,
psoriasis, BARRIERS itch, salt rheum.
and other itching skin diseases. But
the OIL OF Wlntergreen alone was found
ineffective. 1t required other mild in
gradients such as ~glycerine and thy-
mol compounded with the winter
green, to produce the real eczema
cure.
This compounded ID. ID. ID. P~rescrip-
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.
whereas modern science has deter
mined that eczema is first and all the
time a skin disease.

There is never going to be any end to the troubles
of these times until get United States Senator
behind bars where he belongs. according to John
Graham Brooks Talking to the League for Politi-
cal Education at the Hudson Theatre yesterday
morning he said:
''All through the ages we have been putting the
poor little devils in jail. but the great creative
criminals those who the smaller their
puppets. go scot free. They the great dinner
sivers. They the collectors of art-they all
collect art. They our friends. and a great
lawyer said when l asked him why of these
great lawbreakers were not made TO suffer the
penalty of the law We can't put our friends in
prison.
THAT is the root of the whole matter the
lecturer continued 1T is the don't know

they do TO any else. but thye say AS long as
the great crooks go free will stand by ours 80
Mr.. Brooks talking of the of human
hatreds, and had said that human beings have
natural feeling of enmity toward those who are
different from themselves if the difference is
only matter of hair and trousers. The lecturer
remarked that all had 'idiotic area and
that il should be the particular study of each ind
vidual to discover this region and reduce IT as
much might be. In this idiotic area Mr. Brooks
found the cause of many human enmities. The
other cause is an economic When two dogs
