Try This Remedy at Our Risk.
When little yellowish pimples or
watery blisters form on the hairy por-
tons of the face and bow, it is a
sign Of barber's itch, which is very
contagious and If allowed to become
chronic, is painful and produces per-
manent scars.
This disease is caused by a tiny
parasite, and when treated with Sax
on Salve, our new skin remedy, which
permeates and saturates the skin,
these parasites are killed, and the
skin made healthy again.
Saxon Salve is wonderfully heal
ing in all kinds of skin diseases and
eruptions, such as salt rheum, letter,
eczema, Ivy poisoning. ETC., because
1t penetrates the skin and carries its
purifying and healing ingredients to
every portion of the diseased tissue.

HALF MILLION LOSS.
Empire Theatre Burned In North Ad-
ans Tuesday Morning.

The most disastrous fire in the his
tory of North Adams caused a loss of
half million dollars Tuesday morning,
the Wilson House, the Sullivan building
and the Empire theatre being burned.
The fire broke out at 23O in a hallway
near the kitchen in the hotel and spread
rapidly. All of the guests of the hotel
escaped, but Walter Downs, a travelling
salesman from New York. was rescued
with difficulty by Fire Chief Montgom-
cry.
Stores in the various buildings were
occupied by the Wilson drug store, Tut
tie & Bryant, John Brackley, l.. M.
Barnes, ID. r. Provencher, A. Jaffee, the
Lilly estate, and II. S. Katsh. There is
widespread theory that the fire was
of incendiary origin.
The fire was not under control until
6 o'clock. The North Adams firemen
were assisted by the firemen from Ad-
ans. A fire was discovered in the rear
of the Wellington House and in Black
ington block on Holden street, but both
were quickly extinguished.
