FACE COVERED WITH PIMPLES

PA Brevard ST., Tampa, Fla
Some three years ago I commenced
to suffer from a rash on my face and
back. Before the pimples came on my
face there were a lot Of blackheads. It
looked as If the blackheads turned
into pimples because after q little
while all Of them yer gone and my
face was covered with pimples. They
were small at first but gradually
grew and right at the end Of each
pimple 1t was all white. I ~carelessly
picked them with my. finger nails,
which made them spread, and l soon
discovered them or my back. My
back was covered with pimples and
my face the same way. At night I
could hardly sleep on account Of the
burning and itching sensation they
caused. I did not like to go out be-
cause the pimples caused disfgure-
ment.

State Live Stock Association viii
Cooperate in Fight Against
. the Pest.

Columbia.-With the arrival Of W.
K. Lewis, government expert Of the
department of agriculture, in Colum-
bia, war on the cattle tick in South
Carolina has begun in earnest.
J. M. Burgess, secretary Of the
South Carolina Live Stock association,
has addressed the following letter to
the members of the association:
"The general plan Of carrying on
the work of the tick eradication in
South Carolina has been received from
DR.. W. M. Riggs. This work must
be carried on with the greatest care,
so that the most work can be done
at the least cost. You will note that
the work will not be started in every
county at once. This could not be
done without a waste Of energy and
money, so please do not become i'm
patient If the work is not begun in
your county Immediately. Just get
busy and begin to study the question
so that you can be ready to put all
your energy in the work when you are
called into the fight.
1.-THE success Of the work will large
ly depend upon the interest taken by
those who should be concerned. We
must begin a campaign of education,
for many people in South Carolina do
not know the great curse the cattle
tick has been to the cattle industry of
the state. Get the bulletins giving
the life history and how to destroy
the tick, and study them, and then
try not to miss a chance to discuss
what you have learned. If every mem
Der of the South Carolina Live Stock
association and those who are inter.
ested in live stock would carry on
such d campaign, the work Of tick
eradication would be made much
easier.

Grass Map.

Manuel L. Q~uezon, resident COM
missioner from the Philippine islands,
has an interesting map, sent him re-
Gently. It is one representing the is
lands, and Is woven Of a kind of fiber
in different colors, some tints show
ing the land and others water. Even
the titles are wrought In colored
grass. The whole thing is about three
yards long by two wide, and hangs
on the wall of Mr.. Quezon's room, a
most conspicuous object to every Wis
itor. 1t is the work Of the pupils OF
one Of the native colleges. Near by
is an oil painting Of Wilson done by a
Filipino artist, and admirably done
too. Its frame is of different kinds
of wood, all hand carved in graceful
designs.

Divorce Cure.

Chauncey H. Depew, discussing the
change for the worse in the ideals
of the American girl, said recently:
"Our young women should think less
of tango teas and automobiling. They
would do we'll to return to the ideals
which prevailed when I was a LAD.
These idals included the ability to
manage a house properly, an intelli-
gent. supervision Of children and a
thorough knowledge Of the kitchen
This last accomplishment, I think
should be given particular attention"
Depew concluded, with a smile, for
many a good husband nowadays Is
spoiled in the cooking"

Mr.. II. D. WinsIow of U. S. Office of
Good Roads, Tells How Cost Of
Maintenance May Be Considerably
Reduced.

Columbia.-Andrew Patterson open
ed the meeting of the Peoples Forum
recently by welcoming MI. H. D. Win
slow to Columbia.
Mr.. Winslow was sent to Columbia
to talk on good roads at the solicita,
ton of Congressman Lever. He made
a splendid talk and advanced many
new ideas. MI. Winslow came prepar.
ed to deliver a lecture illustrated by
~stereopticon views. He toured South
Carolina in 1910 in the interest OF
good roads, taking many pictures and
disseminating, information as he went.
Before he leaves Columbia Mr.. Win.
slow will probably speak to the stu
dents at the University of South Car.

Mr.. Winslow said that he had devot.
ed a good part Of his life to the study
Of good roads and spoke of the graft.
flying report of the United States engi.
neers on the roads of Richland coun.
ty. Mr.. Patterson said that the coun.
ty was putting down sand clay roads,
grading and replacing wooden bridges
with culverts. He said that his road
working force was an experienced one
and co-operated with him enthusiasts,
tically. Mr.. Patterson told of the new
roads he was putting through. He
said that within the next six months he
hoped to have the roads of Richland in
better shape than they had ever been.
MI. Patterson said that he had found
that floating" chaingangs, which
could be moved quickly and inexpen-
sively, very satisfactory for repair
ing roads.
MI. Winslow, speaking after Mr..
Patterson, said that the costs of road
building were higher now than they
were several years ago. In addition
the roads were being used more and
the wear and tear on them was
greater.
Proper ~culverts, said MI. Winslow,
would eliminate the cost Of drainage
of roads. Good grading, careful To-
cation and permanent foundations
would eliminate costs.
There is no such thing as a perma-
nent road surface" declared Mr.. Win
slow. 1.-THE surface of roads must be
constantly replaced and renewed
This applies to all kinds of road sur.
faces. Only grading, location, foun-
dalton and drainage can be permanent
about a road"

HOW TO CLEAR AWAY
THOSE UGLY PIMPLES

It is so easy to get rid Of pimples
and blackheads with Resinol, and 1t
costs so little, too, that anyone whose
face is disigured by these pests Is
foolish to keep on with useless cos
metics, or complicated beauty treat
ments." See how simply it is done:
Battle your face for several minutes
with Resinol Soap and hot water, then
apply q little Resinol Ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash of with Resinol Soap and
more hot water, finishing with a dash
Of cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice a day, and you will
be astonished to find how quickly ice
healing, antiseptic Resinol medica'
ton soothes and cleanses the pores,
leaving the complexion clear and vel
vety. Sold by all druggists, .Resinol
Ointment, so cents and 81, Resinol

Good Cheer Aids
Digestion of Food
Dyspepfics Can Make the Rest OF
the Family Happy by Using
q Ld1onpe-T Tonic.


The temper of the family and the
good cheer around the table depend so
much on the good digestion Of each
Individual present that the experiences
Of some former %dyspeptics who over
anne their trouble should be OF inter
est to those now suffering In this
way.
The best advice one can give-but 1t
Is advice that Is seldom heeded-is to
eat slowly and masticate each mouth
full carefully. However, If slow eating
and careful mastication fail the next
aid is one close to nature, DR.. Cald'
wells Syrup Pepsin. This remedy ID
an excellent d%igestant, and in addition
to helping in the digestion Of the food,
acts gently on the liver and bowels,
Kidding them Of the accumulation OF
waste that should long ago have been
passed off. 1t is safe, reliable, pleas
ant-tasting, and results are guaran'
teed. =
Maj. 8. Martin, of Joplin, Mo-, now
IT, thinks DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
has helped him to a longer and hap
pier life. He has not felt 30 good In
years as he has since taking this ex-
cellent medicine, and in spite Of his
II years he says he feels like q boy.
1t is the ideal remedy for indiges-
tioh, no matter how severe; constipa-
ton, no matter how chronic, bilious
ness, headaches, gas on the stomach,
drowsiness after eating and similar
annoyances,

40 of the immense 90-foot engines
that the Coast Line is now using and
a turn table to accommodate the same

You can obtain DR.. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin at any drug store for fifty cents
or one dollar, the latter size being
bought by heads of families already
familiar with It's merits. Results are
always guaranteed or money will be
refunded. {
When you use Syrup Pepsin you will
see the fallacy Of chewing mints and
tablets or of taking cathartics, salts,
pills and similar drastic medicines. I'm
like these, Syrup Pepsin does not lose
its good effect, and by automatically
training the stomach and bowel mus
cles to do their work, soon restores
these organs to normal.
