WHY SalveS Can't Cure Eczema

Since the old-fashioned theory of cur
ing eczema through the blood has been
given up by scientists, many different
salVes have been tried for skin diseases.
But it 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--
probably explains the tremendous sue
cess of the we'll known liquid eczema
remedy, oil Of wintergreen, thymol gly-
cerine, etc. as compounded in Odd.

No person or club can legally assume
control of a fishing stream IN tine state
OF Michigan and convert il into pri-
vate flch preserve, according to an
opinion which has Just been received
from the state department BY Deputy
Game. Fish and Forestry Warden John
4. Macdonald Of Laurlum. II any
notice is posted warming the public &c
refrain from fishing. II Is without the
sanction of the law, and need not be
needed. although II is lawful to post
warnings against trespassing.
When the members of ;he Ho-On-
Iloc Rod and Gun club went on their
recent fishing trip to the Salmon
Trout River near big Bay they were
| deprived of the pleasure OF fishing
all Of the stream because the danger
of infringing on the alleged rights OF
| a club which owns land abutting the
stream on both sides. On their return,
they took the matter up with Deputy
Macdonald. who in turn referred 1t to
the state department, which has sub
mitted the following opinion:
There is no law by which any per
son or club can gain control OF a
stream of this kind. which is navigable'
| II this stream Is connected with any
other body of water and can be trav-
ersed with boat Of any kind the
same can be fishcd II II is a meand-
cred stream II can be ftished by wad-
ing the same.
"The decisions of our courts have
settled thc question beyond doubt that
Iany stream which meandcred or is
navigable can he fished by the pubic
but they have also held that person
cannot gain ingress or egress to the
same over or through tho lands of an
other without his consent
The person crossing the lands Ol
another without his consent is subjec'
to an action for trcspass. In securing
. Judgment for trespass however q
verdict could not be rendered for NOR

MISS GERHARDT'S RECITAL
German Singer Makes Debut
Here and Pleases Audience.

Miss Elena Gerhsrdt, who for several
years has been acknowledged I'm Germany
as one OF the first OF lieder singers. made
her American debut In a recital yesterday
afternoon in Carnegie Hall The audience
was of only moderate size.
IL is safe to add that when Miss Ger
hardt became better known her audiences
will be far larger. for the singer as she
revealed herself yesterday Is an artist OF
the finest grade calibre.
Miss Gerhardt's voice is a fine one. not
large In power. but large enough for all ex-
cept tho most dramatic numbers. IL is a
voice OF great purity In mezzo voce. and
the method which she employs seems free
from the usual Germanic faults. Her
pianissimo yesterday was "A revelation and
a thing of exquisite beauty. In numbers
such as the "Erlk0nig'' her want OF power
did not bring the most effective results,
though even In this she showed a fine sense
Of values, But In such selections as
schubert's AN die Musk" and Rosa
munde," in Brahms Skinner Lesser Wird
Mein Schlummer" and his "Sapphische
ode" and In Richard Strauss "Morgen"
her delicacy of sentiment never became
