SAYS SULPHUR IS SURE ID RELIEVE
 ITCHING ECZEMA
Get an ounce of bold-sulphur cream and heal skin
 eruptions right up

Any breaking out or irritation on tre face, arms, legs or body when accom- panied by itching, or when the skin is dry and feverish. can be readily over come by applying little bold-sulphur cream, says noted dermatologist
 He informs us that bold-sulphur inc stantly allays the angry itching and ir- ritation and soothes and heals the Eczema right up, leaving the skin clear and smooth. Bold-sulphur has occupied a secure position for many years in the treatment of eutaneous disorders because of it's parasite destroying property. Noth- ing has ever been found to take its place in treating the irritable and inflamma- tory skin affections. While not always establishing permanent cure, 1t never fails to subdue the itching irritation and drive the Eczema away and 1t is often years later before any eruption again ap- pears on the skin.
 Those troubled should obtain at any pharmacy an ounce of bold-suphur cream. which is applied to the affected parts in the same manner as an ordinary cold cream. It isn't unpleasant, and the promtp relief afforded particularly in itching Eczema, proves very welcome.

How to Win

Maurice Switzer. in Lesles.
 This is an age of specialization. my boy. and tho only men who succeed in a big way are those who pick out some par- ticular line of work and live with it un- til they get to know more about it.
 Concentration, consistent and persistent effort in one direction is the surest road to success. You'll never win in big way except accidentally--if you scatter your energies. The best steam engine in the world would race itself to ruin without It's governor. Keep your mind on your job, specialize in your particular busi- ness and try to know as much about it as the man who created 1t, and, barring misfortune, you'll make more out of that knowledge than you will out of any chance success outside of your busine~~.

 We were all very much exhausted by this time, The sun was hot during Inc day, the country was dusty, with every now and then a dust storm. Water also was very scarce, and the canned milk We bought for the children mad given out They were feeling the effects of the terrible journey and so was my wife
 About noon on the eighth day we felt like shooting each other and giv- ing up. We accidentally ran our faith ful car into the ditch and irreparably destroyed the engine. Everybody felix like crying except my wife. who sug- gested that a friend and I walk ahead and attempt to locate a ranch house or ranohman with horses in this most des- olate country. Six miles away we found a ranch house and there rented AWo Nltn them we pulled the machine to the house. where we aban- doned 1t. The mules were hitehed to light wagon and, with tho peon driving. we set out for a ride of forty miles to Saltillo. At dusk we camped and waited for the moon.
 With her bright rays to light us we began our journey up a steep noun tain pass. My wife sat on blankets. while the children slept with their heads in their lap. In the course of about four hours we had ascended 3,000 feet. and it was terribly cold. But Sal tillo lay in front of us. We could see thy lights about the town. and we
 knew these were camp fires of the sol- diers.
 At dawn we drove in. Straight to the hotel we went and, by paying an almost fabulous price. we were given the best suite of rooms there. I shall never forget the Joy and luxury of a bath. Everybody turned in and slept almost Is hours. The following morn ing, 10 days after leaving Torreon, We boarded a train for the border. The train was loaded with the sick and sui fering of the oonstitutionalist forces. but we had become accustomed to sui fering. All we thought of was to get back to the good old U. s.

to take away the promise of relief,
gievn by the first two words Of the
prediction, is at variance with the pre-
dections of local forecasters at Dayton,
Cincinnati and other cities near Rich
mond.
A break In the cold snap has been
predicted by the forecasters Of these
and several other cities. The break
is only temporary. the forecasters as
sure the shivering public, and If the
short warm wave does come 1t will
be followed by another cold snap with
in a few days.
The absence Of wind and the pres
cnCe Of the sun makes the cold snap
what many term ideal winter weather.
The cold becomes penetrating. how

This fact caused an abatement OF
the charity rush which resulted yester-
day from the sudden drop in tempera-
ture Monday night The charity bust
ness is now going on smoothly, Coal,

generally asked for. Grocery orders,
however were the most in demand to-

Temperature Climbs.
Today the temperature rose sixteen
4 ~rces in five hours. With two be-
low registered at sunrise, the mercury
mad climbed to fourteen above by II
o'clock and was apparently marching
upward.
Although there is less suffering and
handicap because of the cold today
than there was yesterday it is still
interfering greatly with the regular
routine of affairs. The railroads are
probably suffering more than any bust
ness institutions. With fifty per cent
more engines in use, the trains in
many cases pulled in two hours late
