Guaranteed for Eczema

Eczema, one of the most common of
all skin diseases, is one of the hardest to
cure. This is because it is caused by a
living germ or parasite. Any remedy, to
be effective, must destroy the germ. That
is why Rexall Eczema Ointment is so
uniformly successful in this vexatous d.
sease. 1t is made from a germ-kiling
in combination with other
ingredients, employed for their soothing,
healing, cooling and antseptic qualities.
To relieve this burning, itching, smart
ing disease-to put out the tire-to kill
the germs-to soothe and cleanse the tor
cured skin--use Rexall Eczema Ointment.
If it does not do these things--if it does
not heal and comfort you and make you
thankful--come back and get your money.
We mean this. 1t is our guarantee, pure
and simple-to give back your money if
the ointment does not heal. Just that
and nothing more. You take no risk. so

the officers Of the troops gathered

Golf has wrecked the chicken

Bender had some old hens with

set on doorknobs or anything
that looked like an egg. He hid
everything of that kind on the

Every time good mashie shot

would be after it, and by the

Scandal RumOred At
HOpeWell Orphanase

Dublin, June 16.-E. Stafford,
manager of the Hopewell orphan
age, in this county, is reported
to have disappeared following a
close investigation by ministers
of this city into charges of mis-
appropriating funds and immor-
rlity, made against him.
Thirty children are in the
home, left destitute, and are be-
ing cared for by Laurens county
until the matter can be settled.
Local ministers state that they
have positive evidence that Stat
ford seduced two girls at an or
phanage he was formerly con-
nected with, and has been using
funds secured for the Hopewell
home to enrich himself.
1t is not known where Stafford
is. People living in the neigh.
borhood of the home say Stafford
has been spending money freely,
and state they quit supporting
the home on that account. The
home is about ten miles from
Dublin.

About Atlanta, OF Course.

Atlanta, ga. June 15-That At
lantians wear the wrong kind Of
clothes in summer and consequent
ly suffer unnecessarily is declared
by physicians and others who have
been investigating the heat stats
tics end conditions.
Atlantians as a class, it is stated
wear the same kind of clothes in
summer that New Workers and
Chicago people wear, while as a
matter of fact they ought to wear
the kind of clothes that are worn
in Tampa, Mexico City and Ha-
vana.
A com paratively few men IN At
lanta have taken regularly to the
linen and white duck suits, but
they are in the CONSPICUOUS minori-
ty. The average Atlanta mans
summer suit is made of wool and
weighs from six to eight pounds,
dependent on whether it has a
vest and lining or not. He ought.
say the physicians, to be wearing
suit that weighs two pounds as a
maximum.
Another reason why it is said
everybody ought to wear white in
summer is the scientific fact that
heat rays are reflected by white
while they are absorbed by black
and other dark colors.
Georgians, it is said, have never
got it into their head that thew
really live way down south in
Dixie" when it comes to wearing
appeared. The Floridian puts Oh
white ducks and linens in summer
as a matter of course, just as the
Cuban does, but the Georgian, be-
cause the nights are usually cool,
sweats through the day in suit
that may be all right for New
York or Boston but that is out OF
place here.
Of thirteen principal American
cities whose rank in temperature
was taken in 1912 Atlanta stood
third with an average temperature
of 75.4 while the only two which
had a higher temperature were
New Orleans with 80. 8 and Kansas
City with 76.

Government On Trail
OF Income Tax Dodgers

Washington, June 15.-Treas-
ury agents are making ready to
take the trail of income tax dod-
gers. Just now only incidental
attention is being given violations
OF the new law, but evi ence is
being accumulated and when the
commissioner of internal revenue
and his assistants have cleared
up collections on income returns
next month, there will be a gen.
eral movement against offenders.
A man is fool who attempts
to avoid the income tax" said
Commissioner Osborn today. HE
is sure to be detected sooner or
later. There is no chance that
tax dodgers can escape"
The time for payment of this
tax does not expire until July l,
but it is known that the treasury
department already has the in
formation necessary for the pros
ecution of many persons who
made false returns.
In April Secretary McAdoo
called upon all corporations for
full lists of their bondholders and
stockholders, together with lists
of their employees and officers,
with the salaries received by
each. Shortly after it became
known that the secretary was
collecting this information, there
were 300 revised income returns
filed in one internal revenue Of
flee alone. But the secretary is
satisfied large numbers still are
trying to avoid payment of the
tax and the four hundred extra
assistants employed for the in
vestigation of income tax returns
will be used to discover the facts.
1t may take the treasury de.
partment months, or even years.
to catch up with some of the tax
dodgers, but the officials say the
chase will be relentless. The re-
cords Of all banks and business
concerns are open to the depart
ment and it's agents have many
secret sources of information.
The penalty for making a
fraudulent return is imprision-
ment for not more than one year
or fine not exceeding $1,000 or
both, with the costs of prosecu-
ton. Persons subject to the tax
who fail to make any report may
be fined 500 to 81, ZOO. The pen
atty for failure to pay the assess
ments upon returns before July
LIST will be 5 per cent plus an ad-
ditional 5 per cent for every
month of delay.
