AcRID FLUID BURNS SKIN
Why Eczema Spreads-LittIe Vesices
Must Be Dried Up.
Try This Remedy al Our Risk.

In eczema the little vesicleS or pim-
pies are filled with fluid that burns
and tortures the skin the moment they
are torn open by scratching. This is
why scratching makes the disease
more painful instead of giving relief.
In this condition we can conscien-
tiously recommend our new skin rem
edy, Saxon SaIve, for it's action on the
skin in all forms of eczema and other
distressing skin troubles is indeed mar
velous.
The terrific itching is allayed at
once, the acrid fluid in the vesicles is
neutralized and dried up and at the
same time Saxon Salve penetrates and
saturates the skin with its healing,
antiseptic power.
We guarantee that Saxon Salve will
satisfy you If you use it for skin
troubles-lf it does not we will pay
back your money. Broadway Pharm-

PARDON COMING FOR BRAN.
Sailor Convicted of Murder at Boston
in 1896 is Believed Innocent.


Atlanta. Ca. Feb. 12.-Favorable ac-
ton by President Taft on a petition
for pardon which S confidently expect
ed by the officials Of the federal peni-
tertiary here will release, probably
some time this month, Thomas Bran,
a sailor convicted in 1896 in Boston Of
the murder Of his captain and two
others on the high seas. He has al
ways proclaimed his innocence and in
all the Is years Of his Imprisonment
he never has given way to fits Of
despair. Indeed, he has become noted
for his cheerfulness.
The sailor has made several efforts
to regain his freedom. Recently he
enlisted the aid and synnpathies of At
torney Dan w. Rountree, who after a
thorough investigation placed his case
before the attorney general and the
president
The crime for which Bran is serv-
ing & life sentence was committed on
the night of July II. 1896 while Bran
was ii. charge of che night watch. At
ter the discovery Of the murders Bran
had a sailor named Brown placed in
irons charged with the crime. This
man, it was contended, accused Bran
and the crew also placed him in irons
and carried both 10 Boston, where the
trial was held, resulting in Brams
conviction.
IN reopening the case it is asserted
that Charles Brown, the seaman Bran
accused. once was confined in an in
sane ASYLUM because Ct a manlacal
outburst. This, with Branl's exemplary
conduct, is made the basis of the petl
tion for pardon.
