No Mud for Hatfield

Floyd \. Hatfield of North Yaki-
ma, "a hopeful democratic candidate
for nomination as representative in
the next Legislature. was in town last
Saturday, looking over the field and
getting acquainted with the folks
whose votes he'd like to have after he
is nominated. For the benefit of
those who may not be acquainted
with Mr.. Hatfield we may say that he
is a young man of unquestioned in
tegrity, a good laWYer--that is to say,
one who is thoroughly conversant
with his profession---and without a
spot of any kind on his reputation,
save and except that he is a democrat
and Jere George says that is a
bright spot. We shall, of course
save rock or two to throw at Floyd
but We simply can't throw any mud
at him. He's 50 slick it wouldn't stick
to him anyway. Observer

ALMOST FRANTIC WITH
ITCHING ECZEMA

Eight years ago I got eczema all
over my hands. Ny fingers fairly bled
and it itched until 1t almost drove me
frantic. The eruption began with
itching under the skin. 1t spread fast
from between the fingers around the
nails and all over the whole hands. I
got pair Of rubber gloves in order to
wash dishes. Then it spread ali over
the left side Of my chest A fine doc
tor treated the trouble two weeks, but
did me no good. I cried night and
day. Then l decided to try Cuticura
Soap and Ointment but without much
hope as had gone so long. There
was a marked change the second day,
and so on until 1 was entirely cured.
The Cuticura Soap we have always
kept in our home, and we decided
after that lesson that 1t is a cheap
soap in price and the very best in
quality. My husband will use no other
soap in his shaving mug" (Signed)
