URGES PEOPLE TO FIGHT CATARRH
WITH SIMPLE HOME MADE REMEDY
Can Make Pint at Home and Costs Little, Says Leading
Druggist of Covington, KY, Who Has Made
Special Study of Catarrh.
Says: lnflarned NoStrilS

who don't know about this simple
recipe to be constantly shifting
and snuffiing, blowing and hawk
ing, when all these obnoxious
symptoms as well as the foul dis
charge can be made to disappear
in a few days.
Ask for three-quarters of an
ounce of Menthoized Arcine-
that's all you need and after you
have mixed it with enough boiled
water to make a pint, gargle the
throat twice daily and snuff or
spray some up the nostrils, as di-

Soldier Boys Prominent

Minneapolis, Nov. 12.-Three re-

terrific bouts of a boxing card here
last night, which was attended by
hundreds of American Legion dele
gates.
Bob Martin, heavyweight cham
pion of the A. e. F., knocked out
Jack Moran, of st. Louis, in the
third round. Moran fought a game
battle until he went to the canvas
for the sixth time.
Mike .Ertle, of St. Paul, and Pal
Moore, of Memphis, bantamweights,
fought a slam-bang no-decision ten
round match. Ertle had the better
of the first five rounds. but Moore
made whirlwind finish Writers
disagreed sharply over the verdict.
Referee George A. Barton said he
gave Moore a slight shade. Charlie
White, of Chicago, beat Mike Paul
son, Minneapolis lightweight. but
seemingly did not extend himself,
and was jeered by the crowd.
Theodore Roosevelt sat in the
press row, and made a short speech

.MAGNATE FAIL
TO HOLD MEETINGS
Commission to Meet Later;
Spitball Is Doomed; Also
Other Freaks
BY Associated Press.


New York, Nov. 12.-Contrary to
expectations no meeting of the Ma
tional Baseball Commission was held
here yesterday. Despite rumors to
the contrary it was stated that Pres
ident Johnson, of the American
League. is in Chicago and is not eN-
pected to arrive here until the end
of this week.
President Heydler, of the National
League, said to-day that so far as
he knew there would be no meeting
of the commission at this time.
Chairman Hermann. he said. was
here on private business which oc-
cupied most of his time,
There is no intention at this
time" said President Heydler, "of
making any move toward 6istribut-
ing the world series third prize
money claimed by the New York
American League club. So far as
I can see the American League will
have to decide between the board
of directors and the LEAGUE as n
whole and decide definitely which
club has legal right to the money.
Until this is done the hands OF the
commission are tied so far as the
disposal of the money is concern
ed" Hermann, who held an in
formal conference with Heydler,
also expressed the same opinion.
Heydler informed Hermann that
the National League rules commit
tee. comprising Barney Dreyfuss, of
Pittsburgh. William Veeck, of Chi
cago. and himself. would BE- ready to
meet the American League rules
committee whenever the commission
decided to call a joint meeting. He
suggested that it be held early in
January.
"By that time. everyone interest ed
in changing the rules-club own
ers, managers, players. umpires and
patrons-may submit suggestions
and we can pass on the best ones"
Heydler said.
Heydler believed the spitbalI would
be abolished as he considered it un-
sanitary and responsible for many
fielding errors. The shine ball also
might be taken up, he added, but in
his opinion its effectiveness was
greatly exaggerated and largely psy-

SURE RELIEF FROM
FIERY SKIN DISEASE

their attack, and if you have
ever had any form of these skin
dirorders, you know what real
torture is.
Follow the teachings oi
science, and you will learn that
the skin is fed by the blood
and naturally, then, the condi-
ton of your skin will depend
upon the condition of your
blood. If the blood becomes
infested with millions of tiny
disease germs that attack the
skin, then the fiery irritation
and intense itching will remain
with you until these germs are
attacked at their source and re-
moved from the blood.
Genuine relief. therefore, can
only be expected from a treat
ment that goes right to the
seat of the trouble, and strikes
at its cause. Such a remedy
is S. S. S.. the reliable old blood
purifier that kills the germs
of disease, and sends a new sup
ply of rich red blood coursing
through the veins.
S. S. S. has been used sue
cessfully in some of the worst
cases of eczema and other skin
disorders, and it can be relied
upon to cleanse the blood thor
oughly of the germs which
cause these complaints. S. S. S.
is also a splendid tonic and sys-
tem-builder, and it builds up and
adds new vigor to the whole
system.
Go to your drugstore and get
a bottle of S. S. S. today, and
begin the right treatment for
skin diseases. Then if you feel
that your case requires special
medical advice, you can obtain
same without cost, by writing
to Chief Medical Adviser, 152

People who say that catarrh is
q disease not to be taken serious

VIII Never Come From Salves,
Ointments, or Other Local
Treatment.

Usually those who continue
to suffer from stubborn all
ments are those who refuse abb
solutely to heed the teachings
of medical science. New dis
coveries are being constantly
made, and those who fail to
take advantage of the wonder
full accomplishments of men OF
science are standing in their
own light, and will continue
under the handicap of disease.
A million gallons of lotions,
ointments, salves, or other
forms of local treatment will
not give any real permanent
relief from skin diseases. Get
this fact firmly in your mind,
and there is hope for you.
If you have ever been attllet-
ed with eczema, letter, boils,
eruptions, or other similar skin
irritations you can appreciate
the real terrifying discomfort
that comes from these disor-
ders. And what you are look
ing for is not merely tempo
rary, palliative relief that may
cause the terrible burning and
itching to abate for awhile, but
real genuine relief that shakes
off the shackles of the disease,
and restores the skin to its for
mer healthy condition.
But your eczema, letter
boils, pimples, ache, scaly SKIN
eruptions, and burning fiery ir-
ritations that cause so much
discomfort by their terrifying
itching, come from tiny dis
ease germ in your blood, which
multiplies by the millions.
These germs find some weak
spot where they can break
through the skin and set up
