is only skin disease, and must be

discovered the eczema germ, and his
discovery was quickly taken up in
Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ, and at the
same time heal the skin. Dr.. Dennis
compounded oil Of wintergreen, thymol

the heavy position which trade now

Seattle, stopping for brief visits en-
route at Denver, Salt Lake and Spo-
kane. After visiting the Alaska-Yu-
kon-Pacific Exposition the President
will swing down to the Southwest,

he will be the guest OF Senator Bourne,
and proceeding thence to San Fran
cisco and Los Angeles. San Diego will
be the next stop and then will come a
trip into Arizona and New Mexico.
The President will stop for time at
Ell Paso, where he expects to meet
President Diaz, of Mexico.
