New Discovery Cures Eczema and Eradiestes 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 1t could only be ob- tained direct from the laboratories.
 Since this change In the method of distribution. poslam has met with the most phenomenal success of anything introduced to the drug trade in the last 30 years. All leading druggists, in- cluding E. G. Fowler, In Montgomery, are now carrying the special 50 cent size recently adopted, also the s2 jar.
 This great success Is not surprising g when 1t is remembered that, in eczema casos. poslan stops the itching with first application. proceeds to heal im- medlately, and cures chronic cases In a few weeks, Tn minor skin troubles. such as pimples, blackheads. acne. herpes, blotches. rash. etc. results show after an overnight application. Ex- perimental samples of posiam are sent to anyone by mail free of charge, by the Emergency Laboratories. 32 West Twenty-fifth Street. New York City

 The papers of negro applicants in many counties were thrown out whole sale by the State Board. These were mostly those applicants whose answers showed on their face that the authors had cheated. Such evidence sprang from catch questions showed in on the applicants after the original papers had been sent to the county superin- tendents.
 Out of a total of 1.145 negroes and negresses who stood the examinations only 25s got certificates. Of 3.ss2 white applicants who took the exami- nations, 2,208 passed. There were r. IFS white rejections sNi SS7 negro re- jeotions. Fifty-five per cent of all ap- plicants passed, consolidating whites and negroes This means that 2, ,487 received certificates white 2.0so were rejected.
 The names of fS4 more successful applicants were made public yesterday and among the number are those who stood the examination in Montgomery County. This county showed forty seven certificates received and but for Pike County being in the list 1t would have led the bunch. :.
