You may shingle your roof after
Tuesday
After listening 10 arguments pro
and con concerning the single roof.
the composition roof and all other
sorts of roofs yesterday morning from
10 until . O'Clock, the commission
ers agreed on the right of the cit"
liens living outside Of the fire limits
to roof their houses with shingles.
The ordinance, which will be duly
adopted at next Tuesdays meeting, al
lows the use of shingles on roofs. the
only regula ton being that it must be
painted with fire ret1rdins paint on
the weather side.
The single roof agitation mas been
going on for the past four months.
The decision of the commission yes
terday and the ratification of the or
dinance adopted and approved by them
will end the controversy for good, il
is believed.
A large crowd appeared before the
commissioners to thresh out the Ques-
ton. Contractors, lumbermen, insur-
ance men and others were present and
arguments were put up for and against
the proposition by the advocates OF
the two sides. Thornton Estes OF the
Estes Lumber company, j. Fl. Eddy o.
the RAUL LUMBER company anu SIs'
j. W. Morrow were the main factors
In the contention for the shingle. Ii.
G. Seibels appeared before the com
mission as chairman of the local fire
prevention committee and protested
against the shingle roofs. He declared
that most fires came from the shingled
house. At times the arguments were
peppery. Every point was contested.
The decision of the commission and
the ultimate adoption next Tuesday of
the ordinance seemed to have met with
the approval of the majority of those
present.

RESINOL PROVED
WONDERFUL FOR
ITCHING ECZEMA

Feb. 23.-'I had chronic case OF
eczema on my hands for about three
years. Ii got red in places. especially
between my fingers, and when I'd rub
them a little, pimples or blisters would
form which filled with water. The
longer I had this trouble, the larger
these pimples got. L can't express In
words what a terrible thing 1T was. L
couldn't find anything to help me
everything seemed to make it worse.
1 had about given up all hope of ever
being cured. They were terribly sore,
and 1 could not sleep for the terrible
itching and burning. L learned OF
ResinoI Ointment and Resinol Soap
and decided to try them. Well, Res
mol really proved to be wonder
full thing in my case. 1t relieved at
the first application. I used about a
cake of Resinol Soap and half a jar of
Resinol Ointment and the eczema was
all gone. 1t hasn't returned since.
am so glad I tried Resinol Ointment
and Resinol Soap, as / do not know how
l could have stood that eczema much

Hubbard Bros. & Co.'S Letter

New York, October 2O.-treezing
weather extended through Oklahoma and
north Texas this morning, which brought
about a substantial recovery of yester-
days decline, since the local trade took
the view that this cold wave confirmed
their short crop ideas. There was de-
cidedly less trade demand, however, and
the market met southern selling and
realizing on each advance so that event
ually prices closed only some 10 points
above last nights figures. 1t is expected
that the cold weather will extend to the
eastern belt by tomorrow and there was
little disposition, therefore, to sell the
market short. 1t would appear that for
the moment the American spinner is
fairly well covered and the market acts
as though there might be some question
as to further advance at the moment.
We cannot see, however, that there is
any change in the generally bullish views
Of the trade.
