ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN
Not Blood Disease-cured by Oil Of
Wintergreen Compound.

For many years eczema was suppos-
ed to be a blood disease and was err
roneously 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 in
both Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ and at the
same time heal the skin, Dr. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thy
mol, glycerine, etc. The remedy is
liquid, not a mere salye, hence II
sinks right into the pores of the skin
Washing with this oil of wintergreen
compound seems to take the itch away
at once; soon the scales drop away
and the disease disappears.-Wm. l.
Gokay. The prescription has now
been used so long as to have proven
It's absolute merit and we do not hes
itate to express our confidence In ID

If you have indigestion, you don't

Your worn out stomach passes the
food on without extracting enough nu-

And If the nerves are not supplied
with nourishment, they begin to rebel.
They kick up a great disturbance.
They make you irritable and cranky,
you worry about trifies, and you can
not sleep soundly at, night you have
