For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails
to stop itching torture and relieve skin
irritation and that makes the skin soft
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
zemo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne, eczema, itch, PIN.
pies, rashes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
blemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. Zemo is safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only Csc; an extra
large bottle, $l00. 1t will not stain, is
not greasy or sticky and is positivelT
safe for tender, sensitive skins.

ALL MEN AT HOME SHOULD
PREPARE FOR WAR.

The first test man is put through

an examination OF his water. This
is most essential because the kid

causing premature old age and
death. The more injurious the poi

the sooner comes decay-so says
Dr. Pierce, of Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, n. Y, who further advises
all people who arc past thirty to
preserve the vitality of the kidneys
and free the blood from poisonous
elements, such as uric acid-drink
plenty of water-sweat some daily
and take Anuric, double strength,
before meals.
This An-u-ric is a late discovery
of DR.. Pierce and is put up in tab
