ResinOL Ointment also for
more serious skin affections

Not only is Resinol Ointment
used by women everywhere for
clearing away minor skin blem-
ishes-but its soothing. healing
properties have for years been
successful in relieving more stub
born skin affections. Rashes and
eczema--often itching, unpleas-
ant and embarrassing-will in
many cases vanish in a few days.
Even a light application sinks
deep into the pores, attacks the
root of the disorder, and starts
the skin again acting normally.
Resinol is absolutely harmless. 1t
will not irritate even the delicate
texture of an infants skin.

BeIittles Story Of ROxie StinsOn
 About k Street

NEW YORK. April S.-IIoward D. Wilmington was served with q sub poena to appear before the Daugherty Investigating committee in Washington on his arrival tonight on the French liner Chicago.
 Mir. Wilmington declared all the talk about the little green house in K street, Washington. during his resi- dence there was ridiculous" He denied that President Harding or former Attorney General Daugherty had visited him there. although he ad- mitted that William A. Orr had been his guest.
 Mir. Warrington asserted he would not go to Washington for two or three days as the subpoena would always hold good
 He ridiculcd the idea that he had an interest in the Carpentier- Dempsey fight films and belittled the testimoney of Roxie Stinson.
 What did she know about it:" he asked, and added, f'she talked too much. Certainly, she never visited the little green house while I was the lessee"
 Mir. Wilmington admitted, however, that Jesse w. Smith, former husband of Roxie Stinson, possibly had visited the house during his occupancy.
