The Gipson party, members of
which had been up in the vicinity
of Shirley for the past week on their
annual hunting trip after big game.
returned to Augusta on the 9.35
train Friday morning on the way
to their homes in the Granite Hill
district, but failed to bring any deer
with them. In speaking of the trip
one of the members said it was the
FIRST time in the II years that the
party had been up in the Shirley
region and had come home empty
handed. and gave as a probable rea-
son that it was. very noisy in the
woods, there being no snow during
their stay until Thursday, when a
few inches fell. and that they also
found the deer very wild.

For Itching Torture

There is one remedy that seldom fails

irritation and that makes the skin soft,
clear and healthy.
Any druggist can supply you with
semo, which generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Acne. eczema, itch, pim-
ples. rashes, blackheads, in most cases
give way to zemo. Frequently, minor
6Iemishes disappear overnight. Itching
usually stops instantly. zemo is safe,
artiseptic liquid. clean, easy to use and
dependable. It costs only Csc; m extra
large bottle. $1.OO. 1t will not stain, IS
not greasy or sticky and Is poanyely
safe for tender, sensitive skins.
