A CHEMISTS DISCOVERY.
New Remedy for Eczema and Other
Skin Troubles.

The most remarkable feature about
Cadum, the new remedy for skin dis
eases, is that its beneficial action is
seen in every case where it is applied.
Not a single instance has been found
where it failed to allay the terrible
itching of eczema at once. People who
have been afflicted with eczema for
years and have tried everything with
out being relieved should take fresh
courage, for the new remedy Cadum
is different from anything else. 1t is
the discovery of chemist, who felt
Tor years that the world needed cure
Tor eczema and other skin diseases,
and as a result of his studies and ex-
perlnents Cadum was the outcome.
While possessing such remarkable
powers in overcoming different forms
of skin troubles. Cadum contains no
dangerous ingredients When applied
over unsightly sores on the face and
hands, 1t forms thin, almost invisible
coating. so that the disease is covered
up while the healing process is going
on. The 10c. size is intended for trial
purposes by those who wish to test
its wonderful virtues in skin troubles
such as hives, pimples. blotches, tet-
ter, itch. acne. herpes, scaly skin, rash,
psoriasis, ringworm. chaffngs, erup-
tons sores, scabs. itching piles,

Greeting: The Federation of BOYS
Organizations of various Chrlstiah
bodies meets in Augusta this week
AS an organization our castle haS
placed especial emphasis upon each
boy standing by his own Sunday
school and church life. As CLUB we
have not separated the members from
their own church nor appeared as
church organization apart from the
several churches to which individuals
belong. Indeed this is the only way
such a club now composed OF lads
from many churches can exist. FOR
this reason we will not appear as an
organization apart from the churches
nor as it otherwise would be, as an or
ganization Of St. Marks church
Neither of these would be true. But
call upon you in your respective
church organizations to do your part
to entertain lads that are to visit our
town and to appear with your church.
es. Unitarian, Methodist, Universalist,
Baptist, Congregationalist or what
ever church you may by right belong

The fire was discovered by John
kittredgc. who entered the building
soon after o'clock to look after the
fire in the heater. Mr.. kittredgc
heard the cracking Of the flames and
on opering the door leading from the
corridor to the green room saw the
fire right before him. Securing an eX-
tjnguisher he turned the contents on
the fire but it had got too much Of q
start for the chemical to counteract.
In the meantime the alarm had sound
ed and the department was soon Oh
hand. A line of nose was laid from
the hydrant near the Winthrop street
crossing and another from that in
front of the Augusta laundry, and
with these and that from tie combina-
ton wagon the fire was soon killed
ont. While some water was turned on
the fire from the hose the greater pol
ton of it came from sprinkler head
above the stage and this water run
ming down through the noors did the
greater part of the damage.
The ire originated in a box Of rub
bish in the green room and is supposed
to have been caused by a cigarette or
cigar butt being thrown into the box
TT is considered probable that the fire
had been mulling in the box during the
greater part of the night as it had
burned two holes in the floor. From
there it had worked its way to a par
tition nearby and also under the stairs
leading to the balcony Of the Opera
house, and was getting good Roadway
when discovered.
The damage resulting was mostly
due 20 water. which ran down into the
rear part of the grocery store OF Is. p.
Falsom, the store Of the Augusta
Fruit Co. and the barber shop or Har-
nv G.. Jones' The loss on the building
and the scenery on the stage Will be
about $3.50 and is covered by insurance
in the Macomber, Farr 8, Written as-
ency.
The losses sustained by the Augusta
Fr,,it Co., Harry C. Jones ana 3. r.
Folsom, all of whom carried insurance
in the Charles E. Downing agency
were adjusted during the forenoon
and without any suspension OF busl-
ness on the part Of the dlfteren.
