WONDERFUL HOW RESINOL
STOPS ITCHING AT ONCE

To those who have endured for years
the itching torments of eczema or other
such skin-eruption, the relief that the
first use OF resinol ointment and res
mol soap gives is perfectly incredible.
After all the suffering they have
endured and all the useless treatments
they spent good money for, they can
not believe anything so simple, mild
and inexpensive can stop the itching
and burning INSTANTLY! And they
find it still more wonderful that the
improvement is permanent and that
resinol really drives away the erup-
ton completely in very short time
Perhaps there is a pleasant surprise
like this in store for YOU Resinol ONT
ment and resnol soap are sold by all
druggists.-Adv.

Dorothys mother is a suffragette Of

somewhat inclined to copy her elders
One day her teacher received a note
from the secretary of the school
board, but waited until after class to
read it. Dorothy returned for some
books and caught tears in the teach
er's eyes (the latter had been denied
an increase in salary upon which she
had based large hopes), and said:
Why are you crying?"
The teacher laughed and said, The
naughty old school board isn't nice

Cattle Disease in Europe.

That the dread cattle malady the
foot-and-mouth disease" has gained
a firm foothold in the European war
zone as we'll as in this country is now
a demonstrated fact The Germans
attempted unsuccessfully to stamp out
the disease by means of the American
method of wholesale slaughter.
What the continuance of this pestil-
ence will mean to the warning nations,
already stinted in the matter of ra
tons, may be imagined. In France,
Germany, Russia and Belgium, and
also in Italy and Switzerland, the dis
ease has gained such foothold that
1t is economically impossible to fight
it by the American method.
1t appears that the disease has been
growing in virulence since it made it's
first appearance. Mortality among
cattle ranges from three per cent
where the epidemic is mild to forty
per cent where the outbreak is I'm.
