Beware
of ointnents offered az
lust as good as Resinol'

If you have any skin trouble, you want
Resinol. You want it because you have
known about it for years, because your
friends and neighbors have used it success
fully, and because you know that physicians
have prescribed it for nineteen years in the
treatment of eczema, rashes, ringworm,
pimpes and other distressing eruptions.
You do not want Substitute" or some
thing that a dealer tells you is ''just as
good as Resinol." You do not want it
because you know nothing of its value.
1t has nobody's endorsement and for all
you can tell it never did anyone any good
at all. If dealer tries to force a Sub
stitute" on you, it is for a very good
reason of his own--read about it in the
next column.

Henry Cabot Lodge, in his early

ecdotes. Perhaps the best OF all is
the legend which Oliver Wendell

door when he began practising as a
physician: THE smallest fevers thank

1t was on the door of Mr.. Evarts,
when, as secretary of state, he was
besieged by applicants for consulates
and other minor diplomatic posts. and
it read: Come We disconsulatei"
That. one hastens to admit, is the an
ecdote, and nobody will pretend that
an anecdote is necessarily true.
