ECZEMA DRIED RIGHT UP
 WITH SULPHUR

Any breaking out of the skin, even fiery, itching eczema, can be quickly overcome by applying little Mentho- Sulphur. says noted skin specialist. Because of it's germ-destroying prop critics, this sulphur preparation in- stantly brings ease from skin irrita- tion, soothes and heals the eczema right up and leaves the skin clear and smooth.
 It seldom fails to relieve Ire Tor ment and disfigurement. Sufferers from skin trouble should get a little jar of Mentho-Sulphur from any good druggist and use it like a cold cream.

frankly but pathetically announced he could not read or write, cleared up his statement concerning the shooting of a soldier because he had sneaked away from his command to quench his thirst at a spring. It de- veloped that the command was try ing to conceal it's position from the enemy and that all hands had been warned that the first man attempting to walk out in the open would be shot The soldier walked 50 yards beyond the dead line, refused to halt when ordered, and they shot him in his tracks.
 Past Record Aired
 There was much testimony relat- ing to executions at Is Sur Tille, none of the witnesses being able to say whether the victims had been tried, beyond the claim of some to the con- trary as the trap was sprung. War department records, containing the list of II legal hangings, listed two at Is Sur Tille.
 Quite inadvertently. a member of the committee brought out during the examination of a former soldier that since the war, he had served Al months in the Georgia penitentiary Tor stealing an automobile. No at. tempt was made, however, to discred- It his testimony. It related solely to executions, conducted publicly with soldiers drawn up as witnesses. in accordance with military regulations.
