were unnatural and contained sedi-
ment. Doan's Kidney Pills cured
the attack"

said: IT cheerfully confirm my

they always act as represented"

Is generally understood that a plan

rcreasing the coal land assessments
This is not expected to materialize

pected that something will be done
in this county.

that the cooperating conferences

raise this $S50,000, with a possibility
that the fund would reach the half
million mark.
Chairman Hoy then introduced
Congressman \. $. Kreider as the

that he was drafted into the service

with his private business and Con-

help strengthen the educational work

The old Perry county railroad
which later became the Susquehanna

time extended to Iandisburg and
had a track from that place to LoysA
vile. When the company passed un-

headed by David Gring. of Newport,
which also controlled the Newport

ten years ago, work was soon start

satisfactory to have two companies
serving this small territory.
Early this year notices were is
sued that trains over the Susque-

New Bloomfield and New Bloomfield

Then tracks of the Newport and
Sherman's Valley Railroad were laid
into New Bloomfield and trains be-

Stop Itching Eczema

Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying little zemo
furnished by any druggist for 35c. Extra
large bottle, S1.00. Healing begins the
moment zemo is applied. In a 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. It is not a
greasy salve and it does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable
treatment for skin troubles of all kinds.
