For four years I suffered severely
with Weeping Eczema, located
chiefly on the hands, both inside and
out, and extended as far up as the
wrists. I was under treatment most
all the time, but could get no relief.
One or two of my physicians said it
was as a a case of Eczema as they
ever saw. Host my finger nails once
or twice as a result of n disease,
and the itching, burning and pain
Inexperienced I cannot xpress to you
in words. 1 kept my hands ~bandaged
all the while, but with only little
relief. As 1 said, becoming d~iscour-
began it as a last resort. b few bot
ties convinced me that it was doing
me good and I continued it, and in a
short whils I vas entirely cured.

SKIN DISEASES

In this article we want to explain to you the cause of skin diseases,
and also offer suggestions, founded on reason and experience, which
will enable you to cure yourself if you are afflicted with any of the
1arous forms Of this trouble.
The skin receives its necessary "nourishment from the blood.
Every pore is kept open and every gland kept healthy by continually
feeding on the nutritious properties which are distributed throughout the
system by a pure, rich blood supply. AS long as this normal condition
exists the cutce will be soft, smooth, and free from eruptons: when
however the circulation IS contaminated with humOrs and innurnies

The Habit Of the Elm Trss


Trees which have their own indiyid-
ual methods OF reproduction are inter
esting. The way Of the elm Is one of
the most remarka BILE. because the elm
actually makes hedges. or rather II
fits I'm with our English methods of
bordering our trees and roads with
hedges and In very accommodating
way helps us with material
The habit OF the elm Is to send out
Its roots In every direction and then
to push up suckers from it's spreading
roots. When an elm seeds itself or Is
planted In "a hedgerow and becomes
eSta blished there il sends out its roofs
and pushes up Its suckers on all sides
Of 1t. but except on two sides the
young suckers get killed. They are trod-
den down in the path or cut up by the
plow or gnawed down by grazing ami
mails.
But they flourish on each side Of the
elm in the direction In which the hedge
runs. and they kill out the other trees
In the hedge till at laSl possibly the
hedge IL all elm. Then II the hedge H.
not cut or partly cut 'hr strnngcsi
suckers grow up and become trees
themselves and carry on the process.
