CAUSE OF ECZEMA EXPLAINED.

After years Of debate medical ali'
thorities are now agreed that Eczema
and other skin diseases are not
seated In the blood. but are caused
by myriads of microscopic animals
gnawing the flesh just below the cpl
dermis. The patient is perfecuy
healthy. it is only the skin that Is
diseased.
Hence, scientists are now agreeu
that you must cure the skin through
liquid form in order to penetrate
properly. And we can say with con-
fidence that we have the true rem
edy for Eczema in our store.

titled to every safeguard the govern
ment can give them, for with every
possible protection they are still ex-
posed to great danger.
But there are other reasons why
the government should own the postal
cars. For the fiscal year ending June
80, 1909, the government paid rail-
road companies over S45, 100000 for
carrying the mail. Contracts are
awarded to the railroads based on
weight of the mails, and the basis is
obtained once in four years by weigh
ing all mail for a period of 80 or &c
DAYS. Grant that the weights are cor
ect and represent fair average of
the mail to be hauled there is practi
cally no difference in the cost to the
company between transporting one
ter and 20 tons, yet the difference IL
re compensation received is ve'y
great.
There is a widespread feeling that
the government pays the railroad COM
panies too much for the transporta-
ton of the mails and the plan to have
The government own the mail cars pre-
sents a solution to the question, and
which would to a great extent reduce

o pay the railroad companies a fixed
ate per mile for pulling the cars, re-
,ardless of the amount of mail they
ontain. That would be perfectly fair

few years the government would
ave enough on these contracts alone

GOVERNMENT TO BUILD POS

a bill has been introduced in con-
gress authorizing the government to
build its own postal cars. The author
of the bill gives the great loss of lives
among railroad postal clerks in train
wrecks, due to old and poorly con-
structed cars as the chief reason for
the adoption of the measure. The
location of the postal car next to the
locomotive exposes the postal clerks
to the greatest danger in case of col.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE..
Regular Meeting and Smoker Will BE
Held Soon.

The quarterly business meeting and
smoker of the Chamber of Commerce
was Intentionally postponed this
month for a number of reasons by
the officers.
There were a number of members
out of the city during February, 9TH
ers were visited by sickness and death
in their families, and there were also
under considerations and in the course
or negotiation undeveloped plans for
the interest OF the city and county
which the officers wished to complete
before calling the quarterly meeting.
This statsHtent was made by secre-
tary Reardom today because of some
criticisms of the officers for not call
ing the meeting during February.
President L. d. Jennings, and the
smoker committee are alive to the in
terests Of the organization. The
smoker will be held during the first
week in March. New members have
been coming in, dues are being paid
and generally speaking there is little
cause for any knocks" but on the
other hand what is wanted is cooper

Master Not on Salary.

Senator Clifton and Representative
Fraser have been seen and asked
ABOUT the bill passed by the recent
legislature relating to the Master Of
Sumter county. Neither Of them had
copy Of the measure, bat the bill
provides for fees instead of salary,
as was proposed by one bill introduc-
ed. minimum fee Of $500 for each
sale was made. This fee will be paid
by those interested in the case. The
statute has been amended allowing
the master to practice in the court of
common pleas. Before this bill was
enacted he was prohibited practicing
law and thus part of his revenue was
taken away from him.
