How to Tell Whether Skin affection
is an Inherited Blood Dis
ease or Not

sometimes 1t is hard to determine
whether a skin affection is a sign of
a blood disorder or simply form OF
eczema Even physicians are often
puzzled in their diagnosis. The best
way for any one afflicted is to go to
Wilkinson & Co., or any good druggist
who handles pure drugs and obtain SO
cents worth Of polsam. Apply this,
and If the itching stops at once and
the trouble is cured in a few days it
may be set down as having been &C.
zema, as this is the way polsam acts
in the worst cases of eczema, and in
curing acne, herpes, blotches, letter,
piles, salt rheum rash, BARRIERS and
other forms OF itch, scaly scalp, and all
surface skin affections.

CLAIMS TO BE
OLDEST NATIVE
James crulkshank Believes He Has
Been In Iowa About as Long
as Anyone.

James Cruikshank of Donnellson,
president of the Old Settlers Associa-
ton, which meets on August 10, be-
lieves that he is as old a native
1owan as any of them, having been
born in Lee county in 1885 and still
living here. He writes as follows.
The celebration of old settlers day
will soon be held in various parts of
Iowa and Illinois, and this reminds
me of number of pioneers living in
this vicinity. There has been much
controversy concerning the oldest
continuous settler in Iowa now living.
There are two men who have been
living at one place since 1894 Ames

They came to this county in $780, but
think they have no. been continuous
residents of the county. These men
l have mentioned are probably the old
est settlers now living in the state
Each is over eighty years of age. and
some of them over 80.
Lee county is one of the oldest
counties in the state except Dubuque.
Frenchman settled in Montrose in
1893, and DR.. Muir settled in Keokuk
in 1920 The fort was built at Fort
Madison in 1908. DIR. Isaac Galland
settled at Nashville on the rapids in
1929. Lee county was the home of
two noted Indian chiefs-Keokuk and
Black Hawk, Both lived here at the
same time, and many noted travellers
and explorers passed over Lee county
dcring the early days, and made his
tory.
There has been some controversy
over who was the first white child
born In Iowa. We have an account OF
daughter Of DR.. Galland's born in
1880, at Nashville on the rapids, when
Iowa was territory, and belonged
to the Indians. A boy was born to
the family OF John Book, living near
Fort Madison in October, 1888, but he
died many years ago. A girl was born
to family named Taylor. She went
to California many years ago, and
nothing Is known OF her now
l, James Cruikshank, was born
May Z. 1886, seven miles from where
now live have lived here all my
life except for four years. So | claim
to be the oldest native Iowan, now
living, born since the county OF Lee
was opened to actual settlers which
was In 1888. My father moved here
in 1894. He was we'll acquainted with
Black Hawk who would come to our
house, and would hold me on his ',nee,
while mother got him something, to
eat.
1 have seen this county grow from
its wild state of nature, which was
beautiful to its present prosperous and
busy condition The change has been
remarkable. Of the old pioneers who
were born here when the state was
organized in 1876, | think there can
not be more than twenty-h7s or thir-
ty now living in Lee county. We
have lot of old settlers, who will
celebrate their annual reunion, and
they will all remember the old pion-
GERS who blazed the way for this
wonderful state and its civilization.
