CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY
New Discovery Has RevolutiOBized the
Treatment of Skin Diseases.

Treatment of Skin Diseases.
Nothing in the history of medicine has
ever approached the success Of the mar
velous skin remedy known as poslam,
which. 1t is safe to say, has cured more
cases of eczema and skin diseases than
any remedy ever offered for these ills.
The success Of poslam Is not at all
surprising when II is considered that
even a very small quantity applied to
The skin stops itching Immediately and
cures chronic cases In two weeks. The
very worst cases OF eczema, as well as
acne, herpes, letter. piles. salt rheum.
rash, crusted humors, scaly scalp and
every form of itch, yield TO It readily.
Blemishes such as plmples. red noses.
muddy and Inf1amed skin disappear al
most Immediately when poslam Is ap-
piled, the complexion being cleared
overnight.
Every druggist keeps both the 50-cent
size for minor troubles) and the 81 jar,
and either of these may be obtained in
Newark at Petty's and Smiths, as well
as other reliable drug stores.
But no one is even asked to purchase
poslam without first obtaining an *
