Relief from Eczema

! Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have clear,
healthy skin by using a little zemo,
obtained at any drug store for 35c, or
extra large bottle at $100.
Zemo generally removes pimples, black
heads, blotches, eczema, and ringworm
and makes the skin clear and healthy.
Zemo is clean, penetrating, antiseptic
liquid, neither sticky nor greasy and stains
nothing. 1t is easily applied and costs a
mere trife for each application. It is
always dependable.

 Our Army is. every American believes, the finest body of human beings the sun ever shone on. It is fit to fight that the world may be made safe for democracy. and it is built strictly on the lines of democracy. The millionaire and the humblest laborer march side by side. Officers are drawn from every walk of life. No man is exempted because he is rich. None are drafted because they are poor. Men are measured by their willingness or their capaci- ty. Past, or caste, or creeds are not taken into account.
 Thus the selective draft has be- come a badge of honorable ser vice!

 ers' Department.

SOME FACTS.

Early in the summer Secretary
 Baker announced that there were
 1, ,2C0.000 troops in Europe. I'm.
 mediately a German war official
 proclaimed to the German people that this statement of Mir. Bakers
 was not true, because it could not
 be true. He said we didn't have
 an army of that size, and that if we had it would have been impoS- sible for us to have sent the men to Europe because of our lack of ships, and that even had we boats enough to carry them, the Ger man submarines would have sent them to the bottom before they reached their ports of destination. He concluded this remarkable house-that- -Jack-built statement with the assurance that German soldiers would never have any, thing to fear from American sol- diers.
 Our enemy looked on with sneers and jeers and contempt, followed by fear and panic, while Democracy built an army. Our Allies watched with hope and with doubt, while a democracy turned its citizens into soldiers and sent the finished product to the battle front of Europe.
 You will remember the 5th of June a year ago, when between dawn and dark ten million men to be exact, 9,586, sos men te- tween the ages of twenty-one and thirty-one, were enrolled for mil itary servi e, how within forty eight hours practically all regis tration returns were assembled by telegraph here at Washington.
 The same process was repeated last June, and again in August, when something like $50, ,000 men, the new twenty-one year olds, were enrolled; and now the fourth registration which Congress has just authorized includes 13, 000,- l 900 more, up to forty-five years of age and down to eighteen. 1 That will leave in the country On- ly about five million able-bodied l men; the rest will be boys and l gray-heads.
 At first glance the biggest thing about the draft appears to be it's size, but great as that is, the num- bers are hardly as remarkable and as significant as the fact that the people raised their own army. Every town, city and county nom- mated its hest men, and they were put in charge. No mighty | federal war machine composed of army officers was sent from Wash ington and intruded everywhere into the framework of local gov ernment.
 At the Capital Provost Marshal General Chowder with a force of forty officers perfected the plans and directed the work, assisted by five hundred clerks, mostly women. The selective draft was put into effect by thirty thousand civilian officers and was admins tered by home town people, friends and neighbors, It was finest demonstration ever made of local self-government.
 As to the cost, it is to be noted that the bill for the draft is far less per man than for volunteer ing. In 1914 it cost SPA. 48 for re- cruiting a man into the volunteer system; in 1915 it was $19. IA, and for the nine months just before
