two wheels on the outside of the road
suddenly dropped. Over went the party
with the machine, down an embankment
of about four feet and into little brook

they scrambled to their feet. thankful

The machine was in the ditch, Andrew
Stewart was badly hurt and all the men,

road until he found farm house, and

Since the old-fashioned theory of

skin diseases. but IL has been found
that these salves only clog the pores
and cannot penetrate to the inner
skin below the epidermis, where the
eczema germs are lodged.
Thistle quality of penetrating
