A CLOSE SHAVE
Many Of Them Happening Every Day
but Soon Forgotten

-
Close shaves would be of more fre-
Quent occurrence but for the tender
faces of many men, which. will not
permit of shaving often. Heretofore,
nothing has been said in these coll
umns about poslam. a new skin dis
coVery, in connection with its use after
shaving. Its publicity and sales have
been confined almost exclusively to its
remarkable properties as an eczema
cure; 1t stops the itching at once and
cures the worst cases in few days.
While the application of poslam after
shaving is one of its minor uses. such
as for pimples, the complexion. ETC.,
shavers will find 1t a revelation, as 1t
does for abrasions, roughness, and
severe Scrapings what 1t does for all
manner of skin difnculties-heals and
cures in a few hours. 1t IS the only
article poSsessir- real antiseptic and
curative value that has ever been ex-
plotted for this purpose, and will
soothe and tone UP the skin as no
toilet preparation could possibly do.

The price was $55 per share. The
Burlington did not purchase any of

from Hawley and his associates, and
those interests still retain their hold
ings of that class of securities.
The bonds were sold for the pur-
pose of financing the Colorado &

Watching A Stomach

Was the Means Whereby Science Made
Possible the Cure of Dyspepsia.

The Able Spallanzani was the first
scientist to study systematicall the
chemical powers of the gastric juice,
but it was by the careful and convinc-
ing experiments of Beaumont that the
foundation Of our exact knowledge of
its composition and action was laid
Beaumont was an army surgeon, To-
Gated at an obscure military post in
Michigan while it was yet a territory.
and was called upon to treat a gun
shot wound of the stomach in a Cana
dian voyageur-Alexis St. Martin. When
the wound healed a permanent opening
was left by means of which food could
be placed in the stomach and gastric
1uice taken from it.
Beaumont made scientific experiments
with his crude means and wrote hook
Nhich today is recognized among the
classics of physiology.
Beaumont blazed the way for other
scientists SO that today medicine knows
what the stomach does with food and
uhat food does to the stomach
Sicence also knows what the gastric
