What to Do for Eczema

Greasy salves and ointments should not
be applied if good clear skin is wanted.
From any druggist for 25c or S1.OO for
extra large size, get a bottle of zemo.
When applied as directed, it effectively
removes eczema, quickly stops itching,
and heals skin troubles, also sores, burns,
cleanses and soothes. Zemo is dependable
and inexpensive. Try it, as we believe
nothing you have ever used is as effective
and satisfying.

BELL IS TO VOTE ON
ANOTHER BOND ISSUE

Pineville, Ky, March 2O.-Peti-
tions asking that an election be call
ed on Saturday, May 13, to vote on
the proposition of issuing S150,000
in bonds for the purpose of building
roads and bridges have been filed in
the County Court, and County Judge
T. J. Asher has entered an order
calling the election for the date
named in the petitions.
In February of last year the peo-
pie of Bell county by an almost
unanimous vote approved the issu-
ing of $25O,OOO for the building of
roads.
The purchase Of the necessary
road machinery, the cost of engin-
eering, grading, culverts and bridges,
the opening of a quarry and the in
stalling of rock crusher, have la
ken more money than was contem-
plated and the new bond issue will
be necessary to complete the system
of roads which is now under con-
Bell county was the first of the
counties to vote bonds for
the building of good roads and will
be the first to complete it's roads.
The work of completing the Boone
Dixie Highway will be rushed as
soon as the weather will permit.
More than sufficient funds are on
hand for this work, and the proceeds
of the new bond issue will be used
in the completion of the country
roads.

health? The expert malaria inves-
tigators of the U. S. Public Health
Service have found, however, that
discarded tin cans containing rain

spreading malaria. A hole in the
bottom of the empty can might have
resulted in the saving of human
life. Certainly it would have assist

WHY PEOPLE OF THESE
TWO NATIONS QUARREL

Prof. Frederick Starr, of the Uni.
versity of Chicago, in his book
Mexico and the United States, -
says:
Why do the Mexicans hate us?
Primarily and fundamentally be-
cause they are Spanish-Indian, while
we are Anglo-Saxon. Our charac-
teristics are profoundly different.
Our ideas and our ideals are differ
ent. Our ways of looking at things
are different. Our impulses are diff
ferent.
The Latin-Americans are artistic,
we are not. They are theoretical
they delight in the development of
finished systems; We are practical.
They are rhetorical, delighting in
metaphors and figures of speech, we
are blunt.
In an ideal world, perfect in it's
construction, they would admire us.
and We would admire them, because
of our difference. AS 1t is, we do
not live in an ideal world, and diff
ference is damnable.
We despise the Mexicans because
they differ from us, they hate us be-
cause We differ from them.
Naturally, because of difference,
all foreigners Tin Mexico) are look
ed upon with something of dislike
and suspicion; but the difference in |
feeling between the Mexicans to-
ward continental Europeans and
ourselves is very marked.

recruitment OF FINES
County Judges Will Be Held Re.

ney General.

Frankfort, Ky, March 1S.-Coun-
ty Judges, who have RENTED or
suspended fines, will be held strict
ly accountable for the States por-
ton of the fines by State Inspector
and Examiner Nat b. Sewell, who
received an opinion to-day from AS
sistant Attorney General o. S. Ho-
gan stating that, while a judge has
the right in term to set aside judg-
ment and grant a new trial, he has
no authority to suspend or remit a
fine.
1t is customary in many counties
for the CountyJudge, after sentence,
to remit the fine or to suspend it, or
to go to the Jail and direct the re-
lease of a prisoner serving out
fine. This has been held to be a
direct exercise of the pardoning
power, which belongs alone to the
Governor. County jailers, the opin-
ion says, have no right to release a
prisoner on such terms.
The opinion quotes the Court of
Appeals, saying: "The practice of
suspending the judgments of courts
in misdemeanor cases is a failure to
enforce the law; it encourages crime
and is a menace to good govern
ment."
Inspector Sewell said judges must !,
take steps to collect the fines and |
execute their judgments, or they
will be required to pay the amount
into the State Treasury.
