Stop itching Eczema

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying a little zemo
furnished by any druggist for Csc. Extra
large bottle, $l.00. Healing begins the
moment zemo is applied. In short time
usually every trace of eczema, tetter,
pinples, rash, blackheads and similar
skin diseases will be removed.
For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy, always use zemo, the
penetrating, antiseptic liquid. 1t Is not a
greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable treat.

COMMISSION IS
 URGED 10 BUILD
 NEW POSTOFF|CE
Proposal to Build New Postoffice Is Under Consideration by
 Commission Officials.

Rumors current around town some time ago regarding the erecting by the Alaskan Engineering commis- sion of suitable building to serve the purpose of postoffice, were re- gently revived and on inquiry at the proper quarters it was learned that while the advisability of such a course was discussed, no arrange ments of a definite nature were made.
 MT. F. D. Browne, engineer in charge of the Fairbanks division, stated that the matter of putting up such a building was taken up with him by the postoffice depart ment through their inspector and chief clerk, and tentative plans were discussed recently
 The Commission officials are not very enthusiastic about the building of postoffice, as such building erected at Anchorage along similar lines as suggested by the postoffice people was not altogether success.
 The undertaking would also, mean the diversion of funds appropriated for railroad purposes, for which special arrangements would have to be made.

ELECTION DATE
 FOR NEW BOARD
 HAS BEEN FIXED

Elsewhere in this issue there is notice calling for the election of an Advisory Board. As its name in dicates, this board will serve in an advisory capacity to MT. w. H. Grigg, the townsite manager; and through him to the Alaskan Engin- eering commission, regarding town site matters.
 While the board elected will have no positive authority, matters have been so arranged that its recommend ations should have all the weight of authority.
 i A Board of Elections was ar ranged for by the Nenana Com- mercial Club and the Nenana Labor Union, MT. E. L. Laughlin and MT. J. A. Brevig being elected to rep resent the Nenana Labor Union, and Mr. S. E. Parks and Mir. J. A. Slip perm were elected to represent the Commercial Club.
 These four chose Mir. Joseph for the fifth member.
 MT. Laughlin was elected chair man of the board, and MT. Joseph, secretary.
 The board then adopted the fol- lowing regulations for the holding of the election, these being first ap- proved by the two organizations named.
 Regulations. The election will be held in the townsite office.
 The Advisory Board shall consist of five members.
 The five candidates receiving the highest number of votes shall be declared elected as membrs of the Advisory Board, provided, that in case of a tie vote for the lowest member the tie shall be decided by chance, by the judges of election.
 The five members shall serve one year; they shall elect their own chairman, and such other officers as they shall deem necessary; and fill vacancies in their own body; and they shall serve without pay.
 The nominations of candidates shall be by petition, signed by not less than twenty-five voters quali- fled to vote at this election.
 The nominees must be owners of real property located within the limits of the Nenana Townsite.
 A vote will be allowed to anyone, not an alien enemy, provided that he can be classified under anyone of the following heads:
 An owner of real property situate within the limits of Nenana Town site, Alaska;
 An owner of taxable personal property within the limits of Ne mana Townsite, Alaska;
 Anyone qualified to vote at a municipal election in the Territory of Alaska, provided he has been a resident of Nenana for six months prior to the date of this election. The ticket will read as follows.

 Voters will place an "X", record ing their wish in regard to the crea- tion of such Board; and it will be their privilege to vote for five candidates in any case; for even if they vote against the Board, their wishes may be overruled by the : majority; and this method gives them their xote.
