FIERY, ITCHY SKIN QUICKLY SOOTHED
 WITH SULPHUR

Mentho-Sulphur. a pleasant cream, will soothe and heal skin that is ir- ritated or broken out with eczema: : that is covered with ugly rash or pimples. or is rough or dry. Moth ing subdueS fiery skin eruptions so quickly. says a noted skin specialist.
 The moment this sulphur prepara- tion is applied the itching stops and after two or three applications, the eczema is gone and the skin is de- lightfully clear and smooth. Sulphur is so precious as a skin remedy be- cause it destroys the parasites that cause the burning, itching or disfIg- urement. Mentho- Sulphur always heals eczema right up.
 A small jar of Rowles Mentho-Sul- phur may be had at any good drug storeS-AdV, <

LIQUOR SCANDAL
INVOLVES FEDERAL
DEPUTY MARSHALS
Five Officials Are Suspended
Pending Investigation
of Charges.
BIZ United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. "A new
liquor scandal involving Federal of.
ficials reared its head in the Capitol
today.
Five United States deputy marshals
are under indefinite suspension, while
Mershal Snyder and the Department
of Justice, the Federal prohibition unit
and the treasury's secret service in
vestigate charges against them.
The charges include not only viola
tion of the prohibition laws, but the
white slave and anti-narcotic laws.
The liquor angle of the case links
up with the prohibition scandals
which recently stirred Washington.
In those cases two "syndicates" OF
bootleggers were believed to have
been broken up.
Marshal Snyder today refused to
reveal cases against the five narshals.
I have heard serious charges he
said, and the men are suspended un-
til a thorough investigation has been
made
One rumor was some OF the sus-
pended men were using their official
positions to shield violators of the
Federal laws. 1t was reported the
city vice squad had traced to the
home Of some OF the deputy marshals
large quantities of bootleg liquor and
had found them acting as wholesale
distributors OF 1t.
