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

Great inventors often have been
praised for Surrcnderin" the secrets
Of their discoveries. Practically the
same thin" happened in the medical
world in the ease of DR.. Decatur d.
Dennis, the eminent skin specialist of
Chicago.
Mr.. Dennis, in his own Office prac-
ticc. discovered that pure vegetable
oil Of winter@rccn. properly mixed
with ether simple remedies was prac-
tically Il sure specific for Eczema,
psoriasis, barber's itch. salt rhcum,
and other itching skin diseases. But
the oil Of winterYrean alone was
found ineffective. 1t required other
mild ingredients such as Ylvccrine and
thymol compounded with the winter
green, to produce the real eczema
cure.
This compounded y. D. y. PreScrip-
ton positively takes away the itch
at once-thc instant it is applied to
the skin. This vegetable liquid does
away with dcleterious drugs so lony
used in an attempt to doctor the
blood, whereas modern science has de-
termineG that eczema is first and all
the time skin disease.

The merits Of ID. d. d. Prescription,

THE RED-HAIRED sTENoGRAPHER.

1t is unfortunate that the New Yory gentleman who
has declared that he considers redhaired lady stenog
rapher brighter than other kind has not fit to
go into details.
An anxious world wants to know in what ways and
to what degree the haired girl is superior to al the rest
stenographer.
1t is commonly recognized that red-haired girls are
rule hearted and demonstratve although
perhaps subject to fiery outbreaks of temper than
other girls; but it puzzles the serious minded to know
what heartedness and demonstratveness have to
do in the making of good stenographer.
1t is precisely this point that information is called
for and the author of the declaration cannot be too pro-
fuse in presenting all the details.
He need fear that the public will weary of his spec
ifcations
The demonstrativness of redhared stenographer
is topic of which mankind will not deadly tire of if
properly presented.
But aside from this main phase of the question, it
would be interesting and important to know whether red
haired stenograpers less likely than other kinds to
send word the very days when they to be most
needed that their heads ache that is too stormy for
them to to the Office. 1t is OF Importance to know
whether they less prone than their sisters of the
pale blond brunei types to chew gum while being die
taed to Does red hair restrain stenographer from
peeping mans shoulder while he is reading let
ter that he insisted opening hmsef Is red hair aid
to capitalization and punctuation?
These few points that anxious world would
like have made clear If there be presented proofs
that the redhared stenographer meets all these require
with perfect satisfaction to mind uninfuenced
by mhearted demonstraveness-if this be prov
ed then the dhared senographer is ready for her
wings and heavenly halo.

WHIsKEY. STILL DESTROYED
Some Revenue Officers Make n Very

The raiding party entered the
North Edisto swamp seven or eight
miles from Wagner three O'Clock
Saturday evening.
They had been suspecting the
operation OF. a still in that Section
for some time. After search they
came upon the site OF the still.

could be caught, When they came
to the place they found the still de-
serted. but the embers from the fire
were yet alive.
There was no mash or liquor
anywhere around the site and ii
was taken for granted that they had
just left, carrying with them the
result of their nights labor. Bar
rels and other fixtures were smash
ed to pieces with axes, and the still
was placed upon buggies and carried
into Wagener, wnere it was broken
to pieces and destroyed publicly.
The operators of the still are un-
known.
While this still is perhaps not as
notorious as the one captured few
weeks ago, it has been source OF
annoyance, and a nuisance to the
