exposed They receive from the past the light

&c zEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN
Not Blood Disease-Cured by Oil of
Wintergreen Compound.

For many years eczema was suppos-
ed to be a blood disease and was er-
roneously treated as SUCH but now the
best authorities agree that eczema
is only a skin disease and must be
cured through the skin. The eminent
skin specialist, Dr. ID. d. Dennis. first
discovered the eczema germ and his
discovery was quickly taken up in
both Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin, Or. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thy
mol, glycerine, etc. The remedy is
a liquid, not mere salve, hence il
sinks right into the pores of the skin
Washing with this oil of wintergreen
compound seems to take the itch away
at once; soon the scales drop away
and the disease disappears.-Wm. l..

been used so long as to have proven
it's absolute merit and we do not hes
itate to express our confidence in d.

DEATH OF MRS NJ. H. MokEoN
Passed Away Suddenly at Troy City
Hospital Sunday.

This community was severely
shocked to learn of the sudden death
in the Troy City hospital Sunday
morning of Mrs. Michael H. McKeon
one of its highly respected residents.
The deceased was taken critically i'll
Friday noon and from the first her
case was considered very serious.
Saturday noon she was taken to the
Troy City hospital where an effort
was made to save her life by an oper-
alton. She was beyond medical skill,
however, and died about one o'clock
the next morning. Death was due to
a form of rupture from which the de-
ceased had been an occasional suffer
er for some time.
Mrs. McKeon was born in Shafts
bury SO years ago. Her maiden name
was NJ. Eva Madison. Mrs. McKeon
was married in this town in 1880 and
had since always made her home in
the house in which she lived up to
the time of her death.
Besides her husband she leaves
three sons, J. Harry of Holyoke, Mass.
Guy and Ebert McKeon of this town;
two sisters. Mrs. w. Russell Hyde and
Mrs. E. A. Marsden of this town, and
a half brother, Edward Mattison of
Center SALISBURY. also survive her.
Mrs McKeon was prominent men,

and exemplary character were a

1t takes less labor to work clear
pine than pine knots, and costs less

1t takes less labor to paint clear
paint than halfwhiting or half china

Ions, not more paint. There's no
more milk in two quarts of milk and

YOU paint two gallons for one you pay
double for labor, and labor costs more
than paint.
You know how 1t is with clear lum.
