LIFE OF A PIMPlE.
Compilations Are Cleared and PimpIes
Disappear Overnight Without Trou-


Bile.
The dispensers OF poslam, a new
skin discovery, ask that notice be Civ
en- that no one is urged to purchase
it without first obtaining an expert
mental package. Those who have
tried 1t will find that the fifty-cent
box on sale at w. l.. Gokay's and all
drug stores, Is sufficient to cure the
worst cases of eczema, where the sur
face affected is not too large. The itch
ing ceases on first application. 1t
will also cure acne, letter. blotches,
scaly scalp, hives, BARRIERS and every
other form of itch, including itching
feet. Being flesh colored and con-
tanning no grease, the presence Of pos
lam on exposed surfaces, such as the
face and hands, is not perceptible.
Water and soap cannot be used in
connection with 1t, as these irritate
and prolong skin troubles, sometimes
even causing them.
AS to the experimental package OF
poslam, it can be had free of charge
by mail of the Emergency Laborator-
les, 80 West Twenty-fifth street, New
York. 1t alone is sufficient to clear
the complexion overnight. and to rid
the face of pimples in twenty-four
hours.

DEMOCRATS FOR POLICEMEN
Mayor Burke of Burlington Said to Be
Dismissing Republicans.

Burlington, May 1.-THE latest
move in Mayor Burke's efforts to get
Republican officers off the police force
is a refusal to give Officer German
work in the lumber yards. After the
recent suspension of Mr.. German,
Mayor Burke made out a commission
for him as a special policeman and
sent him to work in the lumber dis
trict. Mr.. German refused this an.
pointment, saying that his appoint
ment as a regular officer was still
good. When Mayor Burke learned
this he refused to give Mr.. German
further work as policeman.
