Relief from Eczema

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using a little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c, or
extra large bottle al 500.
Zerno generally removes pimples, black
heads blotches eczema, and ringworm
and makes the skin clear and healthy.
Zemo is a clean, penetrating, antiseptic
liquid, neither sticky nor greasy and stains
nothing. 1t IS easily applied and costs a
mere trife for each application 1t Ia

WAR PROFITS TAX,

By a war-prof1ts tax we mean a tax upon profits in excess of those realized before the war.
 By an excess-prof1ts tax we mean tax upon profits in excess of a given return upon capital.
 "The theory of 8 war-profits tax is to tax profits due to the war.
 'The theory of an profits tax is to tax profits over and above a given return on capital. The excess profits tax falls less heavily on big business than on small business, be- cause big business is generally over capitalized and small businesses are often undercapitalized.
 ''The war-prof1ts tax would tax all war profits at one high rate; the excess profits tax does and for safety must tax all excess profits at lower and graduated rates.'N
 The above extract from Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo's testimony before the House Ways and Means committee gives his differentiation between war-prof1ts and excess-profits taxes and explains his position 1T urging upon Congress an excess profits tax with an alternative war

DETROIT CELEBRATES

Detroit tomorrow celebrates the thirteenth anniversary of the arrival of Tyrus Raymond Cobb in it's busy midst. It was on Aug. 30, 1905 that the Georgia peach played his first major league contest in a game against the Yankees, and the team from New York was defeated by a score of 5 to 8. Jack Chesbro was the first big league pitcher Ty fac ed, and he slammed out a double during the festivities.
 Tyrus is now in his thirty second year. He began his career on the diamond with Anniston, Ala, in the Alabama Tennessee league. He had previously been given a trial with Au- gusta, Ga., his home town, but was fired the first day by Manager Con Struthers After playing with Annis- ton short time he returned to Au- gusta, and was given another chance and in a little while he was fairly burning up the South Atlantic cir cult. Cobb didn't show much class in his first year with Detroit, and in the Spring of 1907 he was offered to Cleveland for Elmer Flick, but Cleveland spurned the trade

x in the forthcoming revenue

profits tax in the forthcoming revenue legislation.
 To the average citizen Secretary McAdoo's position seems well taken. Most small and local corporations are capitalized at an actual valuation. Many of the very large corporations are greatly over apitalized; the stock of some of them has been re- i peatedly watered. With only an ex- cess-prof1ts tax corporation earning 10 per cent. on grossly watered capi- tai will pay the same tax as another corporation not over capitalized, earning 10 per cent. on the real. actual valuation of the money and property invested in it's business. The profits of the first corporation might be 30 per cent. on its actual valua- tion, and it is to cover such cases that a war-profits tax Is urged.
 As many of these large corpora tions are engaged in government work and drawing huge sums from the United States, 1t seems particu- larly Just that they should pay taxes on the same actual basis as corpora tions not over-capitalized. A tax that taxes equally 10 per cent. profit on watered capital and 10 per cent. profit on unwatered capital is not ! equal and uniform and scarcely just.

''BATTLE OF NO

"A Battle of No Mans Land' has been added to the boxing carnival at the mammoth field day for the bene- fit of the Knights of Columbus at Newfield Park next Saturday after noon, according to Terry Lee, who is arranging the program of athletic events.

Johnson of the fire department the city's firefighters and peace preserv- CTS are engaged in a ticket selling contest, with every man in both de- partments working like trojans. The visit of the airplanes here, and the military drills by the Black Rock sailors and possibly the aircraft fleet | have added great interest. The big gest crowd to witness any sporting

LEONARD-LEWIS BOUT POSTPONED
 UNTIL SEPT. 24

Benny Leonard yesterday conferred with the officials of the Airdrone club of Newark, asking for a post ponement of his bout with Ted Kid" Lewis, which was scheduled for Sep tember 10. Leonard is so enthused with his part in the Pip, Tip, Yap- hank show that he feels that he can not give the proper attention to his training for such an important bout.
 The lightweight champions patriot ism and enthusiasm for the cause is so great that he will not permit any thing to stand in the way of his army duties. That is why he is asking the promoters to set back his bout with Lewis. He will stick with the Zip, Tip, Yaphank'' show until it closes.
 The show will not close until Sep tember 14, and Leonard says he will begin active training. Therefore, at his request the promoters have con sented to change the date of the Bat tie of Champions" to Tuesday, Sep tember "A. Lewis, who is training at Long Branch, was immediately noti- fled and conFented to the shift.

ROUTLEDCE IN
 SPLENDID FORM
Shows Same Speed as in Trials and at q to 1 Wins
 the Adirondack Easily.

Saratoga, N. r.. Aug. 29.---Rout- ledge, a big chestnut colt owned by Walter M. Jeffors, yesterday displayed some of the speed he had been show ing in his early morning trials at the Saratoga track. He took the Adiron- dacks Handicap and made a dozen of the best juveniles in training look like selling platers. He won pulled up by five lengths. George W. Lofts Day due finished second and Richard T. Wilson's Hannibal took the third end of the $5,OOO purse.
 Billy Kelly, the juvenile champion, was entered, but Commander J. K. L. Ross feared the 140 pounds assigned the little gelding would break down his pet and withdrew him. MT. Lofts Rodgers also was withdrawn, and at the last minute John Sanford added Ute.
 Because of the great race he ran against Billy Kelly in the Grab Bag Handicap last week w. R. Goes Sweep On, which was coupled with Star Realm, was made favorite. He was heavily backed. The Brighton Stables Lord Brighton and Ute also were well played, but friends of the other contestants were scarce.
 Hannibal had some followers for a while, but that was before it was learned of his early morning ram page. While breeding on the track he ran away with his exercise boy and did nIot stop until he was thrown on the railroad track. This accident cut I IG.4 4A IL I-4A scars. As a result the price on Han nibal increased from to 1 to 20 to 1. Routledge also was a 20 to 1 shot and so was Daydue
 Routledge was at a long price be- cause he had been a disappointment I in his races. It was known that he was one of the fastest colts in years. He had been breaking records in his trials and running like a dray horse in his contests In trials he has run away from Star Hampton, his stable mate, which beat Billy Kelly in the Albany Handicap, but Star Hampton has been much his superior in con- tests
 When it came to racing yesterday Routledge showed his best morning form.
 The Weldship Steeplechase went to w. Smiths New Haven. He was op- posed by J. Lumsdens Kingstown Pier, Commander Ross's Dramaturge and Robert L. Gerry's Texas Star, but KingstOwn Pier was his only worthy opponent. Dramaturge bungled at the first jump and Texas Star could neither jump well nor run fast and was distanced before half the course was completed. Kingstown Pier let until 100 yards from home. Then the heavy weight of 150 pounds began tC tell and he quit. New Haven went tC the front and won by five lengths New Haven travelled over the two

Bob Bescher has returned to ma jor league company and is playing with the Clevelands as a pinch hit ter The bloom of youth is no long CT with Bob, who celebrated his thir- ty-second birthday last February. He has been playing professional ball since 1906. He became a member of the Cincinnati Reds in 1908 and remained with them until 1913, when he was traded to the Giants as part of the Herzog deal Bescher didn't shine under McGraw's management and was sent to the Cardinals two years later. He was released last Spring and went into the American Association, where he made a very good showing. The Clevelands have engaged him as an emergency out fielder.
