100000 Feet Of Logs In the Boom.
The last of the Internationl Paper
companys logs reached here about 10
days ago from the White River, and all
are safely doomed. There are about H.
100000 feet. The logs of the large drive
of the Connecticut Valley Lumber COM
pany from the head waters of the Con-
nectcut began arriving here Monday
and they fill the river as far up DIS
McIndoes. None have passed here but
they are accommodating at the jam piers
two miles up the river When the
sluicing over the dam is begun 1t will
be pushed rapidly and probably will not
take more than a week Seldom has the
water remained as favorable for log
driving as 1t has this year and the ex-
pense of the run of both companies
down the river is much less than the
average in former years, If not the low
est ever. The big drive has about 75,-
100000 feet. about 100000 feet being a
portion of last years drive which was
hung up on Fifteen Mile falls all WIN
ter. 1t IS probable that navigation of
the river north by motor boats will be
nterfered with somewhat more than
last year, but with the water as 1t is
there is every prospect that no needless
blocking of the river will be made and
there is not as strong feeling against
the drivers as last season.

ECZEMA SUFFERERS COULD
HAVE COMFORT TONIGHT.
Try this Remedy at Our Risk.

Try this Remedy at Our Risk.
Many persons around here suffer
30 much from eczema thS' they can
not sleep at night.
Sometimes the terrible itching does
not begin till bedtime. Babies and
young children not only suffer great
ly but their crying keeps parents
and others awake.

new skin remedy, would quiet the
itching right away and permit sleep.
And still better, it is SO reliable a
remedy that it soon heals the erup-
ton and leaves the skin smooth. Re-
markable improvement is soon seen.
In all kinds of eczema, salt rheum,
letter, BARRIERS itch, ETC. Saxon Salve
has wonderful healing power because
1t penetrates the skin pores and de-
stroys the germs at the very seat
of the disease.
We give back your money If Saxon
Salve does not satisfy you perfectly.
