his efforts toward getting rid
of the cause of it all. Hence
the constant use of lotions,
salves, soaps and ointments can
make no impression whatever
on your trouble other than to
afford some temporary relief.
But why be content with
mere temporary relief? Are
you not DESTROYS of being per-
manently rid Of this annoying
trouble that is a source of such
constant torture? Wouldn't
you give almost anything to be
once more free from the itching
and burning that makes your
skin seem like it was on fire :?
Then throw aside at once
such makeshift treatment that
can only reach the surface, and
begin taking a remedy that
goes direct to the source of
your trouble. Go to your drug

this fine old blood medicine
that kills the germs that creep

builds up and strengthens the
entire system, that the germs
of disease are eliminated and

deem 1t convenient to make public that
Mr.. Jenkins, consular agent of the United
States in the city of Peubla, Mexico, is not
exempt from the Jurisdiction of the Next

sular agent Goes not confer immunity
upon him. As y general rule, the consuls
do not enjoy any more immunities than
those provided in the treaties or those
granted them by the laws of the country
in which they perform their duties
The treaty of amity and commerce
concluded with the United States on Feb

regard, but declares in force the pro-
visions of the treaty Of amity and COM
neree concluded with that power in April,

by either of the parties, must be regarded
as being still in force. This latter treaty

MY daughter is 16 and attends the
Wheeler Business college every day. She

She was SO thin and pale. You could see
the blue veins in her arms and hands very
plainly; it seemed she was all nerves, had
no appetite anG felt tired, dull and list
less ali the time, and her sleep was very
broken.
Knowing what Dreco has done for the
Wallace family, | got a bottle for my
daughter and her improvement began at
once. Her appetite increased; sleep be-
came sound and refreshing; her cheeks
took ON color and that tired. dull feeling
was chased away. Her weight has gone

Everywhere the impression prevailed

close and thorough accord.
Before the resolution was introduced
Senator Fall conferred at length with
Henry p. Fletcher, American ambassa-
dor to Mexico, who for some months has

archives have been opened to the for
