ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN


For many years eczema was supposed u
be . blood disease and was erroneousy
treated Is such, but now the best author
ties agree that eczema ia only q skin dis.
ease 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 sane
time heal the skin, DR.. Dennis CON-
pounded oil OF wintergreen, thymol, gly-
cerine, etc. The remedy is liquid, no;
a mere saivc, 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 &. @.

Layton Boys Bound Over to Grand Jury

At the preliminary hearing of
Walter and Gilbert Layton held at
Central last week, they were bound
over to the grand jury in the sum
of $4,000 each. The charge against
them is manslaughter. 1t will be re-
membered that couple of weeks ago
these boys we're engaged in a horse
and buggy race which terminated in
the killing of Mrs. Nathan Coombs
and the serious injury of Mrs. Lof-
green, both of whom were drying in
d buggy on the main road. There
has for years been numerous COM
plants of horse and buggy racing on
the public roads in that section
and it is a wonder that other serious
accidents have not occurred before.
1t is reported that conflicting testi-
mony was given at the trial by those
interested as witnesses and this mat
ter will have to be settled by a
jury. AS is usually the case
nobody was responsible, but at the
same time one woman was killed and
another seriously injured and those
responsible for it should be made to
suffer.

The Chase Creek Wall.

The ERA was mistaken by few
days last week when it stated that
work had not been commenced on
the new wall on Chase creek, but as a
matter of fact the work was COM
menced on the first of the month. 1t
was not the purpose of the article to
roast the town council, but to call
their attention to the county APP
preparation which should be expended
by the first of the new year. We are
glad that the council commenced the
work on the first and are hustling it
as fast as possible. 1t is understood
that it is their intention to erect d
wall, connecting with the old one and
extending to the mountain side on
high ground, that will stand any food
that may visit this section in the
future. The council has selected
live committee, and with Mr.. Fraser's
experience in this class of work,
there is no reason why the town
should not have as good a wall as can
be found in this section.
Quite force of men are now en-
ployed on the work, getting the
ground ready.
