HOW TO CURE skIN DISEASES

This is the question that has baf-
fled the medical profession for CEN
turtles. A great many medicines
have been exploited for the cure Of
skin diseases without much success.
Most of these remedies were salves
or greasy lotions. While they might
give temporary relief they did not
have the power to destroy the germ
life that causes the disease. You
can now obtain from Mr.. w. J. Gil
bert, the druggist, clean, vegetable
liquid remedy for external use that
will give prompt relief and perman-
emily cure eczema and every form OF
skin or scalp disease. This remedy.
which is known as ZEMO cures by
drawing to the surface of the skin,
and destroying the fern life that
causes the disease. IL can be used
freely ON infants. Mr.. w. ]. Gil
bert says ZEMO gives the best salts
faction of any medicine he has ever
sold for the treatment of all diseases
of the skin or scalp.

GOATS AND FOREST SERVICE.
Make Fine Breaks BY Eating Brush
Along the Trails.

The experiment of the forest serv-
ice in using Angora goats in con-
structing IRE breaks through the
chaparral In the Lassen National
Forest has met with such success
that the government officials believe
with careful handling the area grazed
over by the animals can be entirely
denuded of its present growth OF
brush.
Two bands of goats were sent into
the experimental area early in July.
One was composed of ewes and lambs
but owing to defective handling not
as much was accomplished by them
as by the other band, which was
more ably handled
The goats took to their new duties
with a relish aud the way in which
they devoured the brush along the
trails which had been constructed for
them was a striking demonstration
that their task met with their APP
pnoval.
Another valuable disclosure of the
experiment is the propensity of the
animals to nibble at the bark of the
manzanita trees, the destruction OF
which results in the death of the tree
The experiment of the forest service
will be carried out and 1t is expected
