Sometimes when cares and troubles
A. come to torment one at night
When in the darkness of my thoughts
I'm cropping for the light,
lie awake and wonder if the gSim ex-
istence pays,
And long to be. transported to those
happy old school, days,
I'd like to. smell he apples, from a
tattered pocket warn,
W9ui4nt even mind d Strap about MY
shrinking form;
I'd like to hear the scratching Of a nail
upon a slate,
And stand up in the corner when I
happened to be late.
It's true those happy moments were
not quite untouched with tears.
But I'd like to turn life backward to
these cid, happy years,
Behold at midnight weary man must
leeds with savage tread
Perambulate for miles the floor when
he would be in bed,
For infants with a wheeling whoop
arouse the sleeping town,
And, .giviRg symptoms of the Group,

WHY SALVES FAIL
TO CURE ECZEMA
They Clog the Pores-Only Liquid
Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Since the old-fashioned theory of
curing eczema through the blood
has been given up by scientists,
many different salves have been
tried for skin diseases. But it has
been found that these salves only
clog the pores and can not penetrate
to the inner skin below the epider-
mis- where the eczema germs are
lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
probably explains the tremendous
success of the only standard liquid
eczema cure, oil Of wintergreen as
compounded in d. d. D. Prescrip-
ton. After ten years of cure after
cure, the worlds leading skin spe-
cialists have accepted this as the
true eczema cure.
We ourselves do not hesitate to
recommend d. d. d. Prescription at
$10O a bottle, but for the benefit of
those who have never tried the pre-
scription, we have arranged with the
d. d. d. Laboratories of Chicago
for a special large trial bottle at IS
cents on a special offer now. This
first bottle ought to convince every
sufferer, and, at any rate, it will
surely take away the itch at once.
