Siletz VS. Newport

Last Sunday a very interesting
game of football was pulled of on
the local field. The game was be-
tween Siletz and Newport. The
game was not advertised and con-
scquently the crowd was not as large
as usual.
The game opened by Siletz kick
ing off to Newport and the first
half was played without a score be-
ing made by either side.
In the second half Newport
kicked to Siletz. During this half
the ball was fought back and forth
near the center of the field until
Newport worked the ball down to
Siletz's five yard line. when they
lost the ball on downs. Siletz tried
to punt but Newport got through
the line and blocked it and succeed
ed in making touchdown, but
failed to kick a goal. The teams
lined up again but as there was
only minute left to play, no score
was made. The game ending 5 to
O in favor of Newport. A return
game Is scheduled for tomorrow,
Christmas Day, game to be played
on the Newport ground.

Eczema Lodges in the Skin.
NOT BLOOD DISEASE CURED BY OIL OF
wINTERGREEN COMPOUND.

For many years eczema was supposed
to be blood disease and was erroneou-
sly 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.. d. d. Dennis, first discovered the
eczema germ and his discovery was
quickly taken up by both Germany and
France.
To kill the eczema germ and at tn
same time heal the skin, DR.. Dennis
compounded oil of wlntergreen, thyLo(
glycerine, etc. The remedy is "A liquid
not Il mere salve, hence it sinks right
into the pores of the skin. Washing
with this oil of wintergreen compound
seems to take the itch away atonce; soon
the scales drop away and the disease
disappears. The prescription has now
been used so long as to have proven it's
absolute merit and we do not hesitate
to express our confidence in d. d. d.
