stops at once and the trouble is cured
In . few days It may be set down as
having been eczema, as this is the
ihvay posla1n acts in the worst cases of
eczema. and in curing ache, herpes,
btotches, letter, piles, salt rheuln, rash,

Andrew Carnegie, after recently
rafting the dry bones of the manu-
featuring trusts by declaring that
very few of them were entitled to
tariff protection on the products of
their factories. has again set the in
dustrial world to talking by advocat-
ing the profit-sharing plan as the
solution of difficulties between en-
ployer and employed. The idea is
not new one, but coming from a
man who has come up from the
lower ranks to be many times a
millionaire. it carries weight. The
plan is in accordance with the gold
en- rule. and employers who have
adopted it in the past have eliminat-
ed strikes and bitterness in many
instances.
