COMMERCIAL CLUB CALL.

To Those Pledged TO Membership.
1t is urged that the members of the
Commercial Club, those citizens who
pledged themselves to pay certain
amounts and have not as yet met their
obligations in full, send balance at
once to the secretary. There are ac-
counts long since due that should be
paid, and whilst there is an abundance
pledged to meet all demands, the de-
lays in responding to statements mail
ed are embarrassing to those ION the
firing line" as well as provoking to
those holding bills against the club.
Every person whose name was pledged
should respond promptly. Many have
already sent in their last quarters
dues and the amount has been used to
liquidate in part bills contracted the
past few months. Send in balance dus
gentlemen. Don't compel the finance
committee to call on you for the
last quarters dues. Cad Allard,
Secretary.

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

Since the old-fashioned theory Of
curing 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 penetrate
to the inner skin below the epider-
mis- where the eczema germs are
lodged.
This-the quality OF penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as
compounded in d. D. D. Prescrip-
ton. After ten years of cure after
cure, the worlds leading skin spe-
cialists have accepted this as the
true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend d. d. j. Prescription at
$1.0O a bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we have arranged with the
u. d. d. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special large trial bottle at 25
cents on special offer now. This
first bottle ought to convince every
sufferer, and, at any rate, it viii
surely take away the itch at once.
