RATIONAL CURE FOR ECZEMA.
No More Dosing the Stomach-Cure the
Skin Through the Skin.

When you have scratch on your
hand You wash it out and cleanse il
and then the skin cures itself. You
do not take blood medicine to cure a
festered wound.
The best skin specialists today are
agreed that the only way to cure the
skin is through the skin.
The fact that eczema is skin dis
ease and not blood disease is evident
from statistics which show that nearly
all eczema sufferers are perfectly
healthy in all other ways except as to
their skin. II the eczema patients
were really suffering from an inward
malady, the entire body and not only
the skin would be diseased.
You can prove Immediately the re-
lief Of true skin cure by using oil of
wintergreen as compounded in d. D..
D. Prescription.
This liquid attacks the disease
germs. numbing them while building
up the healthy tissue of the skin. We
have now handled this meritorious
and thoroughly scientific remedy for
so long and have seen its reliable re-
suit so many times that we freely ex-
press our confidence Brunt q Par

The effect of Judge Taft's visit to
Iowa has been to give the Republican
campaign an impetus which rescues
it from any claim to the consideration
of General Apathy. The Republican
candidates visit to the state and the
demonstrations accorded him through
ont his tour not only awakened the
people to the realization that they are
in the midst of most important
national campaign. but has given the
people of the east. who have been told
that Iowa was doubtful state reason
to believe that they have been misin-
formed. The representatives of east
ern newspapers who were on board
the train, as well as others connected
with the natl onal campaign have sent
glowing reports to their papers of the
hearty greeting given Mr.. Taft by the
people of the state.

Feast Of the GarIands.

In several Of the more remote Swiss

as the feast of the garlands." The
manageable maidens assemble at sun
set, sing, dance and make merry. Each
wears chaplet Of flowers on her fore
head and carries a nosegay tied with
bright colored ribbon In her hands.
If lad is attracted by a maid he
plucks a flower from her bunch She
pretends not to notice, but when the
merrymaking breaks up at dawn she
will, IL she reciprocates his feelings,

fling it through the open easement of
his bedchamber.

deeds that he will be president of no
class, but of the people as a whole; he

another class would secure business

to guard against such visitations is to

ARE MICROBES In YOUR SCALP.
Many Explanations Of Badness Have Been
Advanced. The Most Correct Is That
Of Microbes.

The term "micro5e" refers to a
parasitic plant or fungi also called
bacteria. A microbe is so small that
it can only be detected by the aid of
microscope. Some microbes are harm
less, while others produce various dis
eases, and derive their titles through
the form of their growth or because
of the diseases they create, which
diseases are Infectious or contagious.
Prof. Unna of Hamburg. Germany,
and DR.. Sabourand, the leading der
matologist of France. discovered that
a microbe caused badness, and their
theory has time and again been amply
verified through research experiments
carried OH through the observation of
eminent scientists. This microbe
lodges in the sebum, which is the
natural hair oil, and if permitted to
flourish. it destroys the hair foliicles.
and in time the pores entirely close
and the scalp gradually takes on
shiny appearance. When this happens
there is no hope of the hair growth
being revived.
Dandruff is contagious disease
which a microbe causes, and later
produces itching scalp, falling hair
and badness Dandruff is caused by
the microbe diseasing the sebaceous
matter. which dries up and scales Off
Sometimes the cuticle surrounding the
hair allows the natural oil of the hair
to force its way between the flakes of
scarf skin dir, ct to the hair, and the
microbe being between the flakes force
them apart and they scale off as dan

Roosevelt today announced that he
would make no speeches in support
of the candidacy of VIM. H. Taft

necessity for such action. This
declaration was made during a call
of Senator Hemenway of Indiana,
one of a series of conferences at the

political situation was under review
MIR. Hemenway asked the president
regarding the report that he would
take the stump. The president re-
piled that he had received numerous
requests to do so, but he thought it
was unnecessary and made the state
ment that he would not make any
speeches. Mr.. Hemenway declared
that both the national and state tick

Affinities $500 Years Aao

1t was the same old world 1900
years ago, according to Prof. James
H. Breasted, Psychologist and expert
on oriental life. He told university
students that "affinities" were but a
part of mans life since records were
made. Speaking of $500 B. c., he
said: Although there was only one
recognized wife, there were affinities'
numerous.
"The other women of the household
did not enjoy the pre-eminence ac-
corded the wife," he said, but they
were by no means beasts of burden.
Frequently they were taught to amuse
their master by singing and dancing
The impression that primitive woman
was beast of burden is due to con.
fusing her with the women of a low
order of civilization of more modern
times"
