The influence of the multitudinous

so today the American association,

How O'Bricn Beat the Majors.
To O'Brien's tact was chiefly due the
credit for the recent victory over the

Powers. who led in the framing up of
the demand of the American associa-

be credited to his diplomacy in pre-
senting the wishes of the American as

SIMPLE WASH CURES ECZEMA
Why SaIves Fail While Simple
Liquid Has Accomplished Thous-
ands of Cures.

1t is now thoroughly established
among the best medical authorities
that eczema is purely skin disease,
due to a germ, and durable only
through the skin. 1t is not blood
disease at all; in fact, thousands OF
people suffer with skin disease and
are perfectly healthy otherwise, and
thereby prove they have no diseased
blood.
Smeary salves cannot reach the
germs because they do not penetrate
the skin. The only way to reach the
germs is by means of penetrating
liquid.
Such a liquid can be obtained by
simply mixing ordinary oil of winter
green with thymol. glycerine and other
healing agents. This compound, known
as d. ID. d. Prescription, stops the
| itch instantly-and the cures all ap-
pear to be permanent. In fact, it took
thousands of cures, case after case.
before the best scientific authorities
were convinced of the absolute merit
of this remedy. ID. ID. ID. Prescription
kills the germs in the itching skin.
It's effect is seen within one minute
after the first application. We espec-
tally recommend d. d. ID. Soap in con-
nection with the treatment.

Dentist Loses Judgment for
500 in Suit Brought by
Patient.

It viii cost l. j. Dull, dentist of
Holiday, S1OO to collect a debt Of so
cents from ]. Edwin Hendrickson, if he
does not appeal from the judgment of
Judge J. J. Whitaker in the city court
yesterday. Dull did some work for Hen
erickson last August putting his teeth
in good condition. Hendrickson test-
fed that Dull told him at the outset that
the work would cost 1915, but when the
work had been finished, Dull put in
bill for S10.25.
HendricksOn was willing to pay the
1913, and went to the dentists office
with the money. Dull demanded the adj
ditional 80 cents, it was claimed. and a
fight resulted, i'm which Hendrickson
was roughly bumped around finally
bounding down a flight of stairs to the
street level as a result of the impetus
furnished by the dentists foot and
hands. Hendrickson brought suit for
500 to salve his injuries, and Judge
Whitaker agreed with him.
