HOW TO HEAL SKIN
AND SCALP TROUBLES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive.
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, yashes, and
similar itching skin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get n jar
OF Resinol Ointment and cake OF
Resinol Soap. With the Resinol Soap
and warm water bathe the affected
parts thoroughly. until they are free
from crusts and the skin Is softened.
Dry very gently. spread on thin layer
OF the Resinol Ointment, and cover
with a light bandage This should be
done twice a day. Usually tho dis
tresslng itching and burning stops
with the first treatment. and the skin
soon becomes clear and healthy again.

6reath-Candy Cathartlc.

No odds how bad your liver, stom-
ach or bowels; hc,x much your head
aches, how miserable you are from
constipation, Indigestion, biliousness
and sluggish bowels--you always get
relief with Cascarets. They imme-
diateiy cleanse and regulate the stom-
ach, remove the sour, fermenting food
and foul gases; take the excess bile
from the liver and carry off the con-
stipated waste matter and poison from
the intestines and bowels. A 10-cent
box from your druggist will keep your
liver and bowels clean; stomach sweet
and head clear for months. They work
while you sleep.

WashbuFn IchabOds Accept Football
Date Offered by the Huskers.

Authorities at Washburn announced
Friday night that the. football game
between Washburn and the University
Of Nebraska will be played at Lincoln
on October 16, the date originally Of
fered Coach Gray by Coach Stiehm of
Nebraska.
Mr.. Gray was unable to announce
this sooner because Of q conflicting
game with the Warrensburg Normal
school and also because he felt that
Nebraska should increase the guar
antee. This Nebraska did by giving
Washburn her choice Of a stipulated
guarantee or fifty per cent of the gate
receipts. and after giving the matter
careful consideration, the members OF
the board decided to close the deal
Students and friends Of the school,
almost to q man, felt that it would be
a .--istake to drop football relations
with Nebraska, and the decision of
the authorities will meet with univer-
sal approval Also, Coach Gray tried
to get Nebraska to come to Topeka
for the game, but for some reason the
Huskers would not agree to this.
With the exception Of tho Aggie
date and a possible Thanksgiving Day
game. the Washburn schedule is now
practically made up and it will be
given out in a short time. The game
with the Aggies will probably be
played on November IS. and there is
some talk Of trying to arrange a Tur-
key day game with the College OF
Emporia, although Mr.. Gray said Fri
day night that no negotiations had
been opened with the Emporia school
for such a game.

EXPLAINS letter.
President Kennedy Outlines Bridge
Legislation Desired.

The Topeka State Journal is in receipt
Of the following letter from James Ken
needy of Frankfort, Kan, president OF
the County Commissioners association
of the state. opposing the bill introduced
by Mr.. Kincaid to appoint the members
of the state highway commission from
different political parties. The letter
is as follows:
Frankfort Kan, Jan. =.
Editor Topeka State Journal.
Dear Sir: 1 notice in the State Jour-
nal of Monday you give space to a let
ter of mine furnished by Mr.. Kincaid
and hope you will do as much for one
direct from me.
The letter referred to was sent to one
individual but was mailed broadcast
over the state to all county commits
sioners; was read at the Hutchinson
convention of commissions in NOvem-
Der. was drafted by the legislative COM
mittee on instructions from that con-
vention and was intended merely to
ton desired by the commissioners, and
the bills themselves, of which the letter
gave an abstract, were sent to Repre-
sentative Kincaid himself.
Mr.. Kincaid has been jealous in adj
vocating a state highway commission.
The Kincaid bill two years ago provided
that two of the highway commissioners
reference to their politics. this year his
bill would have them appointed from
different political parties, fixing place
for himself on the highway commission.
He says the county commissioners are
not working in the interests of the pub
lie. In whose interest is Mr.. Kincaid
working?
Now, there are three hundred and
fifteen county commissioners in the
state who think they can handle their
own county road and bridge business
better than Mr.. Kincaid.
The courts are generally considered
the proper place for determining and
furnishing corruption and if Mr.. Kincaid
will refrain from insinuations and be
specific. We commissioners will do what
We can to have his case heard in court.
The commissioners proposed bills
were adopted by a unanimous vote OF
about two-thirds Of all the commits
sioners In the state at their annual
meeting. We think we know what the
people want and we are going to take
chances of prosecution by persistently
Lobbying the legislature and sending
them letters to get our bills passed.
