WHY SALVES FAIL
 TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-Only a Liquid
 Can Reach the Inner Skin

Since the old-fashioned theory of cur ing eczema through the blood has been given up by scientists, many different salves have been tried for skin diseases. But it has been found that these salves only clog the pores and can not pene. trate to the inner skin below the epi- dermis where the eczema germs are lodged.
 Tbis-the quality of penetrating probably explains the tremendous suc- cess of the only standard liquid eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as compounded in D.. D. D. Prescription. After ten years of cure after cure, the world 's leading skin specialists have accepted this as the true eczema cure.
 We ourselves do not hesitate to recom- mend D. D. D. Prescription at $1.00 q bottle, but for the benefit of those who have never tried the prescription, we arranged with the D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago for special large trial bot tie at 25 cents on a special offer now. This first bottle ought to convince ev- cry sufferer, and, at any rate, it will surely take away the itch at once, Palace Pharmacy.

EnoIish Pronunciation.

There is a village in north Devon
which the signposts call Wolfardls'
worthy, but which we have heard pro-
nounced "Woolserthy." Very likely,
however, if you went there and pro-
nounced it so you would be reproved
for the contraction.
This was what happened to us at
Cirencester. Passing through that town
we were solemnly corrected for calling
1t "Cicester." On the other hand, when
wandering in Norfolk and drawing
nigh to a place which was marked on
the map "Happisburgh," we found
ourselves quite unintelligible because
we did not pronounce it "Hazebro."
Even in English the difference be-
tween sight and sound is confined to
a small minority Of words, though
some people seem to be of the same
opinion as a young Hanoverian lady OF
our acquaintance who naively remark
ed: "You English do pronounce SC
strangely! There is your great au
thor. You spell him Dickens, ane
you pronounce him Boz."-Londol
Spectator.

Games Akin to Golf.

It is probable that the little boy in
the street who calls hockey stick n
golf club is only speaking the truth a
few centuries too late. There are
many reasons to believe that the
Scotch game Of golf, sometimes called
handy ball in the old accounts of it.
developed into hockey with flavor OF
football about it when it came south.
and this is borne out by an old If
teenth century print Of two handy bali
players in which the stick used, called
handy because bent, resembed hook,

similar to golf, and another writer de-
fines shinty as "an inferior kind OF
