MOLINE

Warrant Against observation-disclosures
H. S. Shrum, teacher at the manual
training school, chRstised his son, Har-
old Falk, the boys father, swore out
information against the teacher charg-
ing him with assault and battery. The
warrant was issued Saturday, but has
not as yet been served. 1t is under
stood that the parent will not push the
case, as the lad was to blame for his
chastisement. Young Falk. with a
number of other lads, was reprimand-
ed for disobedience of school rules.
He is said to have become saucy, and
so Mr.. Shrum administered an old
time spanking and told the lad a few
things regarding his bringing up. 1t
is said that it was not the whipping
that aroused the parents ire, but the
manner in which the teacher scored
the boys parents for allowing him to
be- disobedient. The warrant has not
been filed with the police for service,
so it is thought the proceedings have
been dropped, the father realizing the
futility of endeavoring to prove that
violence was used in the chastising of
young Falk.

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SALVES FAIL

In regard to skin diseases, med
ical authorities are now agreed on
this:
Don't imprison the disease germs
in your skin by the use Of greasy
salves. and thus encourage them to
multiply. A true cure of all eczema
tous diseases can be brought about
only by using the healing agents in
the form of a liquid.
WASH THE GERMS OUT.
A simple wash: A compound of
Oil of Wintergreen, Thymol, and
other ingredients as combined in the
d. D. D. Prescription. This pene-
trates to the disease germs and de-
stroys them, then soothes and heals
the skin as nothing else has ever
done.
A % cent trial bottle will start
the cure and give you instant re-
lief.
