\ comprehensive traffic agreement
has been effected between the Grand
Trunk Pacific and the Great Northern
Pacific with regard to operations in
western Canada. The working agree
ment which has existed for a consid-
cradle period of time between the
Grand Trunk Pacific and the Cana
dian Northern has been terminated.
The immediate effect of the agree
ment will probably be manifested in
cessation of carrying further the
plans of the Grand Trunk Pacific to
build into the United States territory
beyond constructing a short line to
Crosby, y. D., to connect with the
Great Northern at that point.

Wash That Itch Away.

1t is said that there are GER
tain springs in Europe that
give relief and cure to Eczema
and other skin diseases. If
you knew that by washing in
these waters you could be re-
lieved from that awful itch,
wouldn't you make every effort
to take a trip to Europe at once?
Would you not be willing to
spend your last cent to find the
cure?
But you need home for these
distant springs. Relief Is right
here in your own home town!
A simple wash of the Oil Of
Wintergreen, Thymol and other
INGREDIENTS as compounded on
~ in D. D. D. Prescription will
bring instant relief to that ter.
rible burning itch, and leave
the skin as smooth and healthy
as that of a child.
If you have not already tried
it, get at least a Is cent bottle
today. We assure you Of in.
slant relief.
