why SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA

Scientists are now agreed that the
eczema germs are lodged not in the
outer skin or epidermis, but in the in
ner skin. Hence, a penetrating liquid
is required, not an outward salve that
clogs the pores.
We recommend to all eczema pa
tients the standard prescription Oil of
Wintergreen as compounded in liquid
form known as ID. ID. ID. Prescription.
A trial bottle of this ID. D. ID. Prescrip-
tion. at only 25 cents, will instantly
relieve the itch. We have sold and
recommended this remedy for years,
and know Of wonderful cures from its
use. We recommend it to our patrons.

Charles F. Eastman.

This is a question that is OF in
terest 10 all of us. We know that the
old saw "All work and no play
makes Jack a dull boy" contains a
lot of truth in IT, To be interested in
one thing, whether It be business or
pleasure causes us to be one-sided,
as It were. And when we go in
search Of amusement, We should seek
something elevating, something that
will be different from our usual work
and yet be instructive and interest
ing.
There are people in this world who
think that life should be serious and
rigid at all times. They see not why
they should be cheerful and optimis-
tic; they say that amusements do
more harm than good. And so some
of them do. Athletics for instance.
AS long as the game, whether 1t be
baseball. football, hockey, lacrosse, is
played fairly and gentlemanly, it Is
good amusement, but sometimes the
desire to win proves strong and cheat
ing begins. Then, amusement tears
down and destroys our sense of hon
or. Theatres too, in these days are on
the side of evil, for managers produce
al pay hN1duot lnC9 dit
profitable than plays that would have
an uplifting influence. When we be-
come greatly interested in an amuse-
ment we are told that we have a
hobby. Photography, postage stamp
/ and book collecting are all very good
They perform a two-fold duty:-in-
struct us and prevent our having idle
moments in which to do any mis-
chief. A walk through the open
country is healthy and invigoratine
and is therefore certainly on the good
side. In short, an amusement thai

GOOD THINGS
FOR ABBEVILLE
The Southern's Improved Station-Bigger
Waiting nooms-ToiIet Rooms, Mirrors,
Water, Etc Splendid New Gas-Lght-
ed Passenger Coach h-Rain Shed-Side
Track Coming, Too.

When the people learn Of the handsome
improvements which the Southern Is max
ing at Abbeville everybody will be pleased.
Our people have long wished for the good
things which the Southern is now furnish
ing, but they have refrained from bother
ing, the railroad folk, thinking that they
would see for themselves the necessity for
better accommodations. Several days ago
Conductor WilliH MS and his assistant MIR.
M. B. Syfan Wee delighted at the recep-
ton Of as pretty passenger coach as any
one could wish to see or in which to take
passage. 1t is thing Of beauty, spic and
span, and lighted by gas.
The station itself Is now being exhumed,
or disinterred, and will henceforth be set
upon pillars above the ground-not under
it. Efficient and skilled workmen are now
putting jacks under the structure which
will raise the building as If by magic.
When it is RAISED above the dry earth it
will be squared with the track. Rooms
are to be added at each end, which will be
used as rooms for tables, mirrors, layato-
ries, and temporary resting places, where
ones dress and big hat, plumes, feathers
and all may receive desired attention or
tidying up.
In addition, great rain shed will be
erected, under which, in rainy weather,
passengers, may alight on the solid earth,
without SpTlnkllnB Cue BFedIeSG HoI,
whether Of the largest dimensions or OF
the most exquisite architecture. The fin
est dress that ever alighted from train
may find safe protection under this great
shed. The prettiest feet that ever peeped
from beneath the skirts of terrestrial an
gel, may here rest upon the dry ground
with never a fear Of danger to hat, dress
or footgear-no matter how hard the rain
may pour.
Nobody hereabout knows how much in
fluence the obligihg and popular agent,
MI. b. F. SweeteDburg, had to do with all
this transformation, bnt we all like him
and we can give him full share OF credit
with the Southern.
1t has also been stated that the Southern
will at an early day put in an additional
side track, which will be Of a great advan-
tage to the buyers Of coal and other car
loads Of goods.
The Southern seems to be doing larger
business with our people than ever before,
the increase being due to the prosperity OF
the country as we'll as to the efficiency and
courteous treatment which the people re.
ceive from all Of the employees OF the
road, from conductor and station agent all
the way down to the last man on the line
