Really a Serious Dilemma.

THE chap who works on one side of
me-" said an Office man, has been mar
ried six weeks and he sneaks to the
telephone about four times day and
calls up his wife, and then hear him
saying: Dear, how is your headache
now? 1 hope you are feeling better"
Then pretty soon he comes back to his
desk and goes to work again all smi-
ling.
1.-The man who works on the other
side of me has been married six years
and he goes to the telephone only
when he's called and then l hear him
saying: why, can't possibly do that,
l can't spare the money! and then he
comes back to his desk all scowling.
And really, when l hear the way
these two men go on l don't know
what to do. l don't know whether to
get married or stay a bachelor"

Light TO SteriLize Wcter

SUFFERING FROM ECZEMA
New Discovery Has RevoIutionized
Treatment of Skin Diseases

Nothing in the history of medicine
has ever approached the success of
the marvellous skin remedy known
as poslam, which, 1t is safe to say,
has cured more cases of eczema and
skin diseases than any remedy ever
offered for these ills.
The success of poslam is not at all
surprising when it is considered that
even a very small quantity applied to
the skin stops itching Immediately
and proceeds to heal at once. The
very worst cases of eczema, as well
as acne, herpes, letter, piles, salt
rheum, rash, crusted humors, scaly
scalp and every form of itch yield to
1t readily. Blemishes such as PIN.
pies, red noses, muddy and inflamed
skin disappear almost Immediately
when poslam is applied, the complex
ion being cleared over night.
All druggists including w. l.. Go
kay, keep the so cent size (for minor
troubles) as well as the regular 81
jar.
But no one is even asked to pur-
chase poslam, without first obtaining
a sample package which will be sent
