DIAMONDS

Are you saying: "I can't afford it ?,. You can afforG it: It is possible that you have wanted a diamond ring for yourself for a long time, and you've put it off just because the ring you wanted entaiIed too big an outlay. If that is so, we want you to know if you invest $25, $35, or $50, into a fffa mond and, after wearing it six months a year or longer, want a larger one bring it back to us and we will aI- low you what you paid for it in ex- change for 8 larger diamond Eac1, stone of the same high grade: df9- ference in size alone makes the dff- ference in price. No one can under sell us providing quality and ouan- tity are equal to that guaranteed Inv us. The Buechlerss guarantee on dia monds is based upon the soundest bus mess principles. Our reputation foc fair and progressive dealings is ex- ceIIed by no other diamond ho,1se We live up to our reputation-not un- on it--and stand firmly back of OFT values.

CLUB NOTES.

Dear Doctor: Please tell me what to do for g. dry scaIy skin. My gen Heral health is good. The scaliness is worse some times than at others. have been troubled with this even since I was a child. I have a. little Sister whose skin is becoming like mine. We are anxious for relief and hope you can help us. It seems to be worse in the winter than in the summer This sca1iness extends over an parts of the body except the chest. The skin is very rough and pimply The scales may be rubbed off with the hand, and then look like a white pow der We have tried frequent bath ing, massage, and well recommended cold creams, but nothing has helped. Mine is a case of twenty years stand ing. Please help us if you can.
 This scaliness of the skin is gener- ally known as Ichthyosis or fish skin, which trouble mostly appears durin 2 the winter months, although it may also cause a great deal of trouble in warm weather It is but seldom that the scalfness extends over all parts of the body. Still there have been sew eraI such cases brought to my atten- ton. The difficulty may occur pe- riodically and be of most severe ma ture- Often severe itching and diff faculties of a constitutional nature de- mand much attention.
 There are several ways in which such ailments can be- successfully treated. The fact that you have suf- fered with it from cliIdh ood will make it no easy matter to get rid of and | think you would be wise to carry out most systematic method of
 treatment until you are at least much improved. A warm climate near the salt water is often a perfect cure, but where this is out of the question I have found that both internal and ex- ternal treatment will often bring per manent relief, suggest tissue foods for internal use and externally a wash of witch hazel and white fluid of hy- drastis, equal parts, to which has been added a little tincture of ginger and 10 per cent glacial acetic acid. Tho scales should first be removed by warm water and borax and consider able soaking is required. If there i.a severe itching cold water applications will give most relief If you pre- fer something that you can secure from your local druggist for internsl use may mention the Compound Syrup of Yellow Dock as very suit able remedy

ly absorbed, In an entirely safe and
rational manner, by the nightly appu-
cation OF ordinary mercolized wax.
Within week or two the underlying
skin. youthful and beautiful to bc-
hold, has taken the place OF the dis
carded cuticle. So little of the old
skin is absorbed each day there's NO
