SULPHUR CLEARS
ROUGH, RED SKIN
Face, Neck and Arms Easily Made
Smooth, Says Specialist

Any breaking out of the skin, even
fiery, itching eczema, can be quickly
overcome by applying a little Mentho-
sulphur, declares a noted skin specialist.
Because of its germ destroying proper
ties, this sulphur preparation begins at
once to sOOthe irritated skin and heal
eruptions such as rash, pimples and ring
worm.
1t seldom fails to remove the torment
and Disagreement, and you do not have
to wait for relief from embarrassment.
Improvement quickly shows Sufferers
from skin trouble should obtain a small
jar of Mentho- Sulphur from any good
druggist and use it like cold cream

car. When near Raymond street one
shot was fired as the men tried to block
Hills automobile. When Hill refused
to open the door of his car one Of the
three bandits fred another shot and the
bullet hit the radiator of Hills automo-
bile. Then the rear door was opened.
Don't open it until they show they
are police officers" said Mrs. Hill, be-
Iieving the men probably were police
officers searching for liquor.
Never mind our badges said one OF
the men and then demanded that he be
shown what was in the car. Finding
nothing but clothing the men started to
leave evidently having been searching fol
liquor They made no attempt to take
money or jewelry from Mr.. and Mrs
Hill.
ONE ESCAPES
DURING FIGHT.
A patrolman who had heard the shots
stopped an automobile and was driven
to the scene. He captured two OF the
bandit suspects. Mr. Hill was so angered
because his wife had been endangered
that he attacked one of the men. In the
excitement that followed that booze
bandit escaped. The one that was cap

Tradition has 1t that Jem Mace was
the most expert boxer that ever lived.
II VIC take as n basis his many ring
battles, his record will bear this out.
Like all great champions he was n
small man: weighed in fighting trim
about 100 pounds and stood feet 9,4
inches. AT this weight he fought all
comers. Mace was a Eypsic; and he
bore the rowing disposition character
istic of his race After his mcmorab bic
battle with Joe Goss, at Thames, Eng
land. which he won in 81 rounds. he
came to America. and in this coun-
try he fought Tom Allen, Joe Coburn
and for the second time Joe Goss. He
ords say in 1911. and II they are cor
years.
He was a handsome fellow. dark
complcNioncd and had coal black hair.
and in accordance with his gypsic in
stincts. was wont to cIaEEeratc his
dress considerably. Prcposscrsing in
demcanor and a very entertaining fel-
low. Mace made many friends. He was
lion at the different clubs as well
as at gatherings where .ct-to be-
tween expert boxers wa. enjoyed.
This story has to do with this box
ing phenomenon and Rosco ConklIng.
the statesman, ono of tho really great
Americans. Conkling, like Roosevelt
had n hobby for boxing, and 1t is Ger
tain that IT took a mighty good anna
tour to stand before him for any
length OF time, and II Is said that on
several occasions he gave profession
