A Chemists Opinion of Skin
Diseases.

Mr.. o. W. Ellsworth, the chamist
and druggist, says that in all his scien-
tific experience he has never found
any remedy so successful as ZEMO
for the treatment of Eczema. Itching
ekin Diseases, Dandruff, Pimples,
BIackheads, and all diseases of the
skin and scalp. He says that not only
do its curative qualities make it popu-
lar but also the fact that it is clean,
liquid remedy for external use. A won
derful improvement over the old
greasy salves and lotions which are
not only unpleasant to use. but do not
destroy the germ life that cause the
disease. ZEMO draws the germs to
the surface and destroys them, leaving
the skin clear and healthy. Can be
used freely On infants. Mr.. o. w. Els

call with a free sample bottle oi

An All NIGHT Job.

Section Foreman William Cordes
and his gang were dispatched to New
Boston where after an all night Job,
the empty box car from which the
trucks had been knocked, was set
back on the track, and brought to the
city, with the tired laborers and fore
man, this morning at $50.
The occurrence of yesterdays de
rai'ment was a very singular one, re
quiring the two sections Of the trair
to make long detour around Keokul
and up the K line and from Donnell
son over to Viele before the trair
could again proceed on its way. Wha
caused the car to jump the track is
not known, but it was presumably
from a defective truck.

INTERURBAN LINE
LOOKS FAVORABLE
Much Enthusiasm Along the Route of
the Proposed Line From Kinks
vile to Seymour.

KNOXVILLE, Mo, March 2S.-An
enthusiastic mass meeting was held
here in the interest of obtaining the
extention of the interurban railway
from Kirksville to this city and posi-
bly north to Seymour. Iowa. The
melting was addressed by Henry Funk
of Shelby county, promoter of the
Hannibal & Kirksville interurban rail
ways.
Farmers living along the proposed
route were here. The line from
Kirksville to Unionville would open
up one of the richest and most ex-
tensive coal fields in the state, now
wholly undeveloped The Union
vile Commercial club has taken up
the project and is directing its
energy to obtaining its extension
Several railway surveys have been
run through here by various lines
in the past, but the route ovel
which it is proposed to construct
this interurban line is said to be the
most feasible yet proposed.

Sporting News

The Quincy Journal is of the opinion
that Keokuk is stronger right now
than at any time last season. This
assertion was made when news of the
purchase of Reardon reached that
city.
The st. Louis Browns will be an
expensive luxury for Keokuk fans and
the baseball association. 1t Is esti-
mated that the big league club will
have an expense account of about $3.50
in coming here from st. Louis and re-
naming over Saturday and Sunday.
All they ask is expense money and 1t
is likely that tickets will be sold in
advance to protect against bad wealth
err. Of course in case there is big
gate receipt at each game one-half is
asked by the big leaguers instead Of
expense MONEY.
1t is confidently predicted through
out the sport world that AL Wolgast

Dane at their future meeting, which
/ is certain to come, or rather that the

he has lost The outcome of the fight

SAGE FOR DARkENlNe THE HAIR.

SAGE FOR DARkENlNG THE HAIR.
There is nothing new about the idea
of using sage for restoring the color
of the hair. Our great-grandmoth
kept their locks soft, dark and glossy
by using Sage tea" Whenever their
hair fell out or took on dull, faded
or streaked appearance, they made a
brew of sage leaves and applied it to
their hair with wonderful beneficial
effect. Nowadays we don't have to re-
sort to the old-time. tiresome method
of gathering the herbs and making the
brew. This is done by skillful chem
lists better than we could do it our
selves, and all we have TO do is to
call for the ready made product
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur containing
sage in the proper strength, with the
addition of Sulphur, another old-tjm'
scalp remedy. This preparation is
sold by all first-class druggists for soc
