LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SALVES FAIL

In regard to skin diseases, medical
authorities are now agreed on this:
Don't imprison the disease germs
in your skin by the use of greasy
salves, and thus encourage them TO
multiply. A true cure of all eczem-
atous diseases can be brought about
only by using the healing agents in
the form of a liquid.
Wash the germs out.
A simple wash: A compound Of
oil of wintergreen, thymol and other
ingredients as combined in the D.
D. d. Prescription. This penetrates
TO the disease germs and destroys
them, then soothes and heals the
skin as nothing else has ever done.
A % cent trial bottle will start
the cure and give you instant relief.

The SILVER BOWL.
Il Was Full OF Water, and 1t Puzzled

4 rising young politician In New
York tells this story on himself. BE
was invited recently to spend a week
end at country house where things
we're done 4 notch or two more elaD-
orately than he was accustomed TO,
and he stood In not 4 little awe OF the
solemn person who was assigned TO
act as temporary valet to him. The
climax came when this functionary
tapped at his door on Sunday morning
and told him it was o'clock.
"All right, I'll get up said the Wis
itor, and the solemn man disappeared
into tie bathroom. from which pres
emily the noise Of water running into
the bathtub was audible. In half a
minute more the solemn person emerg
ed, holding large silver bowl full OF
water, with which he approached the
bed.
"He must have seen the astonish-
ment in my face" said the New YORK
er. 81 couldn't conceal il. 1t was @
wholly new game to me, and dldn
know whether l was expected 70 dip
nv head In it or to drink it. 1t was
an awful moment but that man was q
diplomat. He realized my embarrass.
ment, and he just let drop In cold and
aloof tone, as If he had outsiders TO
deal with every day, the simple ex-
planation:
