JUSTICE A. M. SPEAR
HAS NOT RESIGNED
And Remarks That He Is Not
Going to-Rumor Has Re-
Gently Forecasted His APP
pointment to the Public IT'LL
tiles Commission

No sir, l have not resigned and I
am not going to resign that / know
Of said Hon. Albert M. Spear Of
Gardiner, associate justice Of the su-
preme court of Maine. to a Lewiston
Sun reporter who approached him ON
the subject Wednesday night. 1t had
been rumored that Justice Spear would
resign from the bench to accept the
position of chairman of the Public
Utilities Commi ssion. a 1-year Office
paying $1,000 a year.
For several Gays the rumor has teen
current that Justice Spear would re-
sign from tie bench and accept the
position of chairman of the Public
Utilities Commission. In such a case,
it was pointed out, Governor Hajnes
would appoint a successor TO Justice
Spear and so defeat one es Gov-elect
Curtis opportunities. Also Governor
Haines would be providing 7-year
position for Justice Spear whose term
on the bench expires during the Cur
tbs regime.
Gocernor Haines was quoted a few
days ago as declaring that when he
got good and ready he would appoint a
mission, and not before. He also de-
clared that the position was not for
sale and would not be jockeyed for
political purposes.
In spite of Governor Haines' decla-
ration, the rumor that Justice Spear
was to receive the appointment to the
craftsmanship became more and more
insistent. The proposition appeared
reasonable. Justice Spear is Repub-
lican. His term as justice expires dur
ing the next two years. 1t is not like
ly that he will be reappointed to the
bench by Democratic Governor.
Governor Haines could appoint Re-
publican to the bench, both appoint
ments being for seven years and both
being for $4,000 year.
Wednesday night Sun reporter
asked Justice Spear If he had resign
ed and he promptly replied: mo. sir,
l have not resigned and 1 am not 60
ing to resign Sun.

SULPHUR is the
ONLY THING FOR
ITCHING ECZEMA

In the treatment of the various
forms of disfguring, itching and burn
ing Eczema such as Acne, Ringworm,
Salt Rheum, there is nothing known
that can take the place or bold-sul-
phur.
1t effects such prompt relief, even
in the aggravated Eczema, that it is
a never-ending source OF amazement
to physicians.
For years bold-sulphur has occupied
a secure position in the treatment of
cutaneous eruptions by reason of its
cooling, parasite destroying properties.
sulphur is not only parasiticidal,
but antipruritic and antiseptic. there
fore invaluable in overcoming irritable
and infiammatory affections of the
skin. While not always establishing a
permanent cure, yet in every instance
1t instantly stops the agonizing Itch
ing; subdues the irritation and heals
the infiamed, raw skin right up and it
is often years later before any Ecze-
ma eruption again appears
Those troubled should obtain from
any good pharmacist an ounce Of bold
sulphur and apply 1t directly upon the
abrasion like an ordinary cold cream.
1t isn't unpleasant and the prompt
relief afforded is very welcome.-Adv.
