1t is unnecessary for you to suffer
with eczema, blotches. ringworm, rashes
and similar skin troubles. A little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 25c, or
$1OO for extra large bottle, and promptly
applied will usually give instant relief
from itching torture It cleanses and
soothes the skin and heals quickly and
effectively most skin diseases.
Zemo is wonderful, penetrating, dis
appearing liquid and is soothing to the
most delicate skin It is not greasy, IS
easily applied and costs little. Get It
TODAY and save all further distress.

MARKED DECLINE OF

Bears Attack United States Steel and Allied

New York, July 13-Extension of the per cent and the unfavorable sentiment created by further steady declines in lib- erty bonds accounted in varying degree for the depressed tone of today's mar ket in Wall street
 Professional selling met with little re- sistance on the continued abstention of public interest. Peace reports and in- tination that the arrangement between the government and the steel manufac- turers was far from satisfactory, accele- rated the decline, which was at it's height in the last hour.
 The bears concentrated their attacks upon United States Steel and the nu- merous allied industrials including equipments. Steel registered an extreme loss of Sss points at 1225s. it's lowest quo tation in many weeks and gross declines of to almost points were made by Bethlehem, Crucible and Lackawanna steels, Republic Iron and Steel Foun- dries.

 Rails were steady most of the session, with comparative strength in Reading, St. Paul and Canadian Pacific, but dealings in transportations were over- shadowed by the greater activity in speculative issues. Shppings also held firm, notwithstanding indications of realizing at the higher levels.
 Isolated and temporary points of strength were limited to some of the pooled shares. Industrial Alcohol sur rendered it's 3-pont rise, but American Sugar and United States Rubber were firm. Final prices were mostly at the days minimum quota tions. Total sales amounted to SS0,O0O shares.
 Time money retained it's recent ease, ignoring the furry in cali accommoda- government deposits from local institu- tions. Rates on London and Paris re- faxed, no material alteration being shown in other foreign remittances Of ferings of liberty bonds at the wide range of par to 99 30-50, new minimum, featured the irregular bond market.
