Don't Let Baby Suffer With Eczema
And Skin EruptiOnS.

Babies need a perfect skin-covering.
Skin eruptions cause them not only in
tense suffering, but hinder their growth.
DR.. Hobson'S Eczema Ointment can be
relied on for relief and permanent cure of
suffering babies whose skin eruptious
have made their life miserable. "Our
baby was afflicted with breaking out of
the skin all over the face and scalp.
Doctors and skin specialists tailed to
help. We tried DR.. HobSon's Eczema
Ointment and were overjoyed TO see
baby completely cured before one box
was used" writes Mrs. Strubler, Dubuque,

1t Is necessary on the average farm
In this state to put the above amount
of expense on an acre of land before
cuttings of alfalfa can be obtained.
Some items listed above may be too

Too many farmers make the fatal
mistake of selecting a poorly drained

Steps in Growing Alfalfa.
When a suitable location has been
found for alfalfa, the ground should
be plowed as deep as possible early
in the spring and then pulverized be-

step is to apply lime at the rate Of two

The Automatic Lighthouse

From Harper's Weekly
The lighthouse keeper, about whom
has gathered so much interest and ro-
nance, is to be driven from his post
and replaced by an automatic device
which lights the lamp and extinguishes
1t without the aid of human hands. The
inventor Is distinguished Swedish
physician named Gustaf Dalen, and he
has received the Nobel prize. 1t seems
tragic that one who has worked to give
light to the world should now be in
darkness. Since perfecting his great
invention Dalen has become blind.
Both the lighting and extinguishing
power are operated by the action of
the sun. The light may be from 100 to
several thousand candlepower, and will
work for months without any attention
Acetylene plays an important part in
this invention. Had 1t not been for the
discovery of two French chemists the
Dalen light would not have been possi-
BILE. Raw acetylene Is dangerous 10
handle and not easily controlled. The
new process renders it comparatively
harmless in working. and without risk
in transportation. The acetylene is
stored in large welded steel cylinders.

Never before had ii been given Ophella

Doctor Tells How to
Shed Bad Complexion

We cannot restore degenerated facial
tissue any more than we can restore a
lost limb. 1t is useless to attempt to
convert worn-out complexion into a
new one. The rational procedure Is to
remove the complexion instead-re-
move the devitalized cuticle. Not by
surgical means. however, as the under
lying cults Is too thin, too tender, to
Withstand immediate exposure. Apply
ing ordinary mercollzed wax will grad
ually absorb the offending cuticle. BY
degrees, new, youthful skin appears;
a skin soft and delicately tinted as a
rose petal.
No lady need hesitate to try this. Pro-
cure an ounce Of mercolized wax of the
druggist. Spread on layer before re-
firing. removing this in the morning
with soap and water. In from one to
two weeks the complexion is completes
ly transformed.
An approved treatment for wrinkles
Is provided by dissolving an ounce of
powdered saXolite In a half pint of
witch hazel. Bathing the face in the
solution brings prompt and remarkable
results-Dr. Rupert Mackenzie in Pop

thoroughly familiarized him
with the County's business, and
his general knowledge of law
make him well fitted for County

D. N. Hardy for Circuit Clerk.

Among our announcements, to-day
will be found that of Mr.. ID. NJ. Hardy
for Circuit Clerk of Drew County, sub

tiers in the next primary election. Mr..
Hardy having held the office of Coun-

He is an old citizen of the county
and is well and favorably known to
our people; and as he has the reputa-
ton of making the county one of the
best County Clerks that it ever had /,
there will be no question as to his
bility and fitness for the Circuit Clerks
Office.
Mr. Hardy is now making his home
at La Dele, in the Southern part of
the county, where he is engaged in
farming, but hopes to see the voters
before the primary election and lay his
claims before them, for their considera-
ton.
