NO DOUBT THAT REsINoL
DOES STOP ITCHING

1t Is a fact that the moment resinol
ointment touches itching skins, the
itching stops and healing begins. With
the aid Of resinol soap, it almost al
ways clears away all trace of eczema,
summer rashes, pimples, or similar tor.
menting, unsightly eruption quickly,
leaving the skin clear and healthy.
And the best Of it is you need never
hesitate to use resinol soap and resi-.
mol ointment. Resinol is a doctors
prescription which for twenty years
has been used by careful physicians
for many kinds Of skin affections.
They know that its soothing, healing
action is brought about by medication
so bland and gentle as to be suited to
the most delicate or irritated skin.
Resinol ointment and resinol soap are
sold by all druggists.-Adv.

WILL AEROPLANES STOP WAR
orrViIle Wright Is Moved to Say He
Likes to Think So,
Anyhow.

Did you ever stop to think that
there is very definite reason why the
present war in Europe has dragged
along for year with neither side
gaining much advantage over the
other? The reason, as | figure it out,
Is aeroplanes, Orville Wright writes
IN Golfers. In consequence of the
scouting work done by the flying ma
chimes, each side knows exactly what
the opposition forces are doing.
There Is little chance for one army
to take another by surprise. Napoleon
won wars by massing his troops at I'M
expected places. The aeroplane has
made that impossible. 1t has equal
lied information. Each side has such
complete knowledge of the others
movements that both sides are obliged
to crawl into trenches and fight by
means Of slow, tedious routine rather
than by quick, spectacular dashes.
My impression is that before the
present war started the army experts
expected it to be a matter of a few
weeks Or at most, a few months. Today
it looks as if it might run into years
before one side can dictate terms.
Now, nation that may be willing to
undertake war lasting a few months
may we'll hesitate after engaging in
one that will occupy years.
The daily cost of a great war is Of
course stupendOus. When this cost
runs on for years the total is likely to
be so great that the side which wins
nevertheless loses. War will become
prohibitively expensive. And the
scouting work in flying machines will
be the predominating factor, as 1t
seems to me, in bringing this about
I like to think so, anyhow.

Household on the Styx," and Coffee

summer at his camp in Maine, said in
an interview last week: People
should own and read books just as
they should seek friendships, and try
to understand their friends. A book
that one has come to know, and to
love, is one of the truest of friends.
