ECZEMA ON HEAD
COMPLETELY CURED
West Philadelphia Woman Tells How
1t Was Accomplished.

So many people go through life trou-
bled with eczema Of some sort or 9TH
er, and the disease is so loathsome,
that we beg all to read the following
letter as a benefit to themselves and
their friends:
"Resinol Ointment and Soap com
pIeteIy cured me Of Eczema of the
head in about three weeks. Have
recommended them to several friends,
who have found them excellent ar
ticles for all skin eruptions. l shall
continue to recommend them Wher-
ever possible"
IDA B. LESHER,
West Philadelphia, Pa.

skin trouble, Resino1 Ointment is al
ways effective. 1t gives instantaneous
relief 1t must not be classed with

MERGER
Of the Traction Systems in
This Section Takes
ahrtPlace. 4
It Is now ltheaM.. vi.Tnc.


At special meeting of the stock
holders of the Fairmont and clarks-
burg Traction Company, the Fair
mont ana Northern Traction Com
pany and the clarksburg and Wes-
ton Electric Railway Company, the
holdings of the three concerns were
merged into the Monongahela Val
ley Traction Company, which will
operate them in the future. There
viii be no change in the manage
ment or in the official board Of the
new company, the merger being for
the purpose of expecting the opera
ton of the lines and to do away
with the many individual com
panies which are owned by the same
interests.
The NJ. v. T. c. will operate in
the netghborhood Of 100 miles OF
electric road and will have in course
of construction the line between
clarksburg and Weston which will
be an important one and which 1t will
cost great deal OF money to4con-
struct.
One of the objects of the merger
is to place the company in a better
position to secure the funds neces-
sary to build the Weston line, the
northern line and other roads that
are being contemplated, including
the one from Clarksburg to Salem.
Many important improvements to
the service are being planned for the
Fairmont end and announcement OF
some of these will made during the
summer.
The stockholders meeting was
held in the Fairmont Offices of the
company in the Watson building
Thursday. The plan has been en-
tirely worked out by the attorneys
of the company and it required
less than half an hour to merge the
three great concerns into the new
company.
The merger will require quite an
outlay for new stationery, new
forms and new tickets, as well as
for the re-lettering Of the cars OF
the various companies. This, how
ever, has all been arranged for and
within short time the titles of the
old concerns will be lost to view

Ill Temper and Tragedy.

The merest trifles often lead to grim
tragedies. The other day in this city
two men went to a public hydrant to
drink. approaching it from different di-
rections. They reached for the cup at
the same time and then quarreled over
the question Of precedence. The result
was a patient in the Emergency Hospital
with a severe stab wound and another
man fleeing from justice. In New York
a day or so ago a couple OF Italians
drove a truck SO close to the curb that
water standing in the gutter was splashed
upon two men and a woman sitting under
an awning on the sidewalk. A quarrel
followed. and the Italians went of in
anger and returned with a gang armed
with sticks and bottles. to be met by an
opposing crowd. After the fight two men
were found desperately wounded and the
police were searching for the lawbreak-
ers. Bad temper caused both OF these
clashes. 1t is responsible for the great
majority OF serious happenings. Impo-
liteness. lack of consideration, the desire
to affront, all these seem dominant among
