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. Thich generally overcomes all
skin diseases. Eczema, itch, pimples,
rashes, blackheads in most cases give
way to Zemo. Frequently, minor biem-
iahees disappear over night. Itching us
ually stops instantly. Zemo is safe,
antiseptic liquid, clean, easy to use and
dependable. 1t costs only 35c; an ex-
ira large bottle, 81 90. 1t will not stain,
isTiot greasy or sticky and is positively
safe for tender. sensitive skins.

last year or two When tic Guards
men We're put to thee tc5t. they met
it as creditably as did the regular
army or the sclcctiYe service army
In fact, there are those Who maintail
that the Guardsman made even bet.
ter soldiers than the others.
There had been weak spots IN the
organization due to neglect il some
of the states; but the weak units
were strengthened by their Mexican
experience and by special training
TO fit them for European service,
fhus in the end those little, scattered
companies and regiments from all
over the country made a fine, strong
homogeneous body OF national troops
OF whom their country has ample
reason to be proud
With the experience and tradition
now gained, and with a more gener-
Gus attitude toward it's work, ID
should be easier in the future for the
National Guard to maintain itself in
every state as fine. effective organ
