For Skin Tortures

Don't worry about eczema or other
skin troubles. You can have a clear,
healthy skin by using Zemo, obtained
at any drug store for 35c, or extra large
bottle at Sll00.
Zemo generally removes pimples,
blackheads, blotches, eczema and ring
worm and makes the skin clear and
healthy. Zemo is a clean, penetrating,
antiseptic liquid, neither sticky nor
greasy and stains nothing. 1t is easily
applied and costs mere trifie for each
application. It is always dependable.

are varied. 81
One of the services not
generally known, which
the Company must rem
der, is to assist industrial
instl tutions in keeping
down their manufacture
ing costs.
The Company maintains staff of
highly trained lubricating engi-
neers, whose business it is to go into
industrial plants, make a careful and
thorough study of their mechanical
equipment, and determine what
lubricants are best suited to each
machine under the prevailing con-
ditions.
Their constant effort is to keep

flying the particular oils and greases
that will enable the machinery to
deliver a maximum of service at a
minimum of cost.

neers is part of the comprehensive

Shafer Plan Would Giue
Years Pay to Service Men

Service men are supporting the Sha-
fer plan which urges that bill be
put through congress whereby every
man of the service shall receive twelve
months extra pay whether they went
abroad or not
1.-The men Of the service worked in
the various camps for one dollar
day, while the civilians at their side
received as much as ten and fifteen
dollars day." points out w. B. Sha-
fer of Norfolk, Va, who is backing
the idea. 1.-THE civilians went home
at night and the service men stood by
night and day. The majority OF the
men who joined the service this year
at Norfolk gave up positions paying
them around $3.50 a month. Compare
that with $50 month"
