Frank Opinion Of KIM.

Victor Emmanuel, king of Italy. is
keen fisherman and spends hour
after hour with his rod, though the
best Of luck does not always attend
his piscatorial expeditions. Once,
after several hours angling had
brought him only three poor fish and
he vas returning to the castle, he was
met by a peasant with magnificent
catch of trout. "You seem to be no
great fisherman, to Judge by your
CATCH" commented the peasant. Il
should say you were about as lucky
as the king" "Why?" inquired his
majesty. "Oh," replied the peasant,
he thinks a great deal himself as
a sportsman, but he is a poor body,
much more At to be a king that a
fisherman" 5.@

SULPHUR DRIES
Up ECZEMA AND
STOPS ITCHING
This old time skin healer is
used just like any
cold cream.

Sulphur, says a renowned dermatol-
ogist, just common bold-sulphur made
into a thick cream will soothe and heal
the skin when irritated and broken out
with Eczema or any form of eruption.
The moment it is applied all itching
ceases and after two or three applica-
tons the Eczema disappears, leaving the
skin clear and smooth.
He tells Eczema sufferers to get from
any good pharmacy an ounce of bold
sulphur and apply it To the irritated
parts the same as you would any cold
cream.
For many years common bold-sulphur
has occupied a secure position in the
practice of dermatology and cutaneous
affections by reason Of it's parasite-de-
stroying property. 1t is not only para
siticidal, but also antipruritic, anti
septic and remarkably healing in all
irritable and infammatory conditions Of
the skin. While not always effecting a
permanent cure it never fails to in
stantly subdue the angry itching and
irritation and heal the Eczema right
up and it is often years later before
any eruption again appears on the skin.
