Try This Remedy at Our Risk
Eczema is seen in so many forms
that any itching eruption is almost
certain to be this disease. In the
acute stage the itching is almost mad
dening, as il does not give one a
moments peace.
Our new skin remedy, Saxo Salve,
was devised to meet the need for a
really trustworthy and scientific
treatment of skin troubles.
Saxo Salve not only stops the ter
rifle itching at once, but also pene-
trates the skin pores, reaching the
very root Of the disease with its heal
ing germ destroying power.
You will be both surprised and de-
lighted to see how the eruption be-
gins to dry up and disappear after the
first few applications.
1t is splendid for children as well as
for adults, and we give back your
money if Saxo Salve does not satisfy

Woodrow Wilson's sweeping victory

"The American people" he said,
Overwhelmingly defeated party
that has been in complete possession
OF all the branches Of the Govern
ment for 10 years and that had been
deprived OF that possession only
twice since the Civil War. This de-
feat emphasizes the strength OF
the Government wheI the result was
accepted not only without question.
but also with well wishes for the VIC
tories from the yanquished. Such a
change would be accomplished In
few other countries In the world with
out revolution.
"There is no question but that VIII
son viii do all in his power to poul-
tice the black eye the democratic par
ty has worn ever since the Cleveland
administration, said Gov. Hadley.
"If he succeeds. doubt whether tho
Republican party ever will come to
life again. If he fails. the Pro
! gressives and Republicans will be un-
tied. l know not under what name
but they will be united.
"There are no grave economic dif-
ferences holding the Progressives and
the Republicans apart. 1t is ques-
ton OF name as much as anything
else. A duplication Of the Democrat
io failare will find factional lines OBJ
liberated. and reunion Of the two
factions Of what was once the Repub-
lican party"
Gov. Hadley is not doubtful Of the
future. Gov. Wilson is a big.
broad, conservative man, and do
not expect anything disastrous to
ocur while he Is at the head OF the
Government" he said.
