of the seven directors. Bunker was

a
natural sequence of Fisk's attempt to
protect himself by driving Ford outSof
the service is not improbable.
Ford. who but for the interv ention of
President Roosevelt would have fallen
a victim to the spite of Fisk and his
powerful friends, has been in the postal
service 3S years. His record is unblem-
ished by a single mark against him.
He has been superintendent Of mails
in the San Francisco postoff1ce since
1880. 1t Is due to his efforts that the
mailing division of the San Francisco
postoffice Is not surpassed by the maiii
ing division of any Office in the United
States. The Philippines mail service
was installed and perfected under
Ford's immediate supervision, as was
true of the present system of NAIL
service for the war vessels stationed
In the Pacific. The Inauguration of the
present system whereby most OF the
work Of mailing San Francisco news
papers is done in the newspaper offices
was wholly due to the efforts of Ford
A subordinate, who rendered the public
faithful, and valuable service, who had
won the commendation Of his superiors
IN Washington and who refused to play
politics and who believed that his oath
of Office meant something, was not the
man for Fisk. The action Of the depart
ment indicates that he is the kind of
man for Roosevelt.

GREAT SKIN CURE sTlRs EUROPE
Medical Profession Interested in E,Ster-
nal Wash Which is Producing
Rem arLabIe Results.

Instant relief and permanent cures
have so invariably followed the use Of an
American prescription for the cure Of skin
diseases that European doctors, always
Jealous to lead in fields of medical knowl-
edge. are sim directing inquiries as to
the ingredients of this external vegetable
remedy.
The makers of the prescription, the D.
d. d. Company Of Chicago. are replying
frankly to such European inquiries that
this Eczema remedy is simply oil OF
wintergreen compounded with other
vegetable ingredients, of known healing
power such as thymol and glycerine.
Apparently no case Of no matter now
long standing can stand against this SIM
pie remedy, known as d. d. d. Prescrip-
ton. Here is a typical letter from Mrs.
e. Payne. Of East Pittsburg. Pa; I had
q horrible breaking out on my legs and
feet, and tried nearly all medicines and
salves without result. The first bottle Of
d. D. d. helped me and secured COM
plete cure That was two years ago and
/ have had no trouble since"
We have investigated the merits Of ID.
D. d. Prescription and believe it to be
the best and quickest cure for skin dis
eases. At any rate, we positively know
that It takes away the itch just as soor
as you apply few drops of the sooth-
ing liquid. Call for free booklet on care
and nutrition of the skin and ask for a

affected. 1t is the latter thst the so
ciety hopes TO take to its sanatorium
in Brandywine hundred. To do this
will require about 500. The society is
able to contribute $50 Of the amount
and has appealed to the public to help
make up the remainder.
This the public has shown a readi-
ness to do and yesterday there were
received from various sources S20.15.
Clerks Of the local Offices of the Penn

contributed S5.40 for the childs benefit.
DR.. J. B. Rutherford, of SIT Wash

cause of the extreme poverty and the
manifest inability of the family to pro-
vide the necessary nursing and care
He further stated that he had about
made arrangements to have the girl
taken to a Philadelphia sanatorium
when he remembered the work Of the
local society and he personally report
ed this case to them.
