AID TO RELIEF
OF PSORIASIS
SYMPTOMS S

The itching and irritation of
psoriasis is readily relieved by
Resinol Ointment, an old formula
containing ingredients well known
to physicians for their effectiveness.
To get best results, wash off the
scales with a pure, mild soap. Res
inol Soap is gently medicated and
free from excess alkali. Use it with
warm water, then rinse and pat dry.
Spread Resinol Ointment evenly
over the surface, letting it remain
for several hours during the day and
overnight. Note how quickly its
oily base enables the Resinol medi-
cation to soothe the angry skin.
Even when the rash begins to
fade, do not stop using Resinol too
soon. The eruptions Of psoriasis
have tendency to recur. For this
reason it is advisable to continue
Resinol applications to soothe the
irritation, as long as any trace of
it remains.
Get Resinol Ointment and Soap
at any drug store. Sample free.

inches at the ankle. The fact that
Miss Colbert is inclined to be
slightly underweight is proof of ex-
ceptionally good leg musculaturc.
Without proper muscular de-
velopment, Miss Colbert's legs
would be too thin for ShapelineSs.
Natural sports are excellent for de-
Veloping the leg muscles, and this
star is a swimming and tennis
enthusiast.
In the average person, legs are
frequently the least developed
part of the figure because of fail
ure to get enough outdoor ac-
tivity. Skinny legs lacking in
muscle and normal adipose tis-
sue and flabby legs without form
are the result of inactivity.
With the overweight, leg con-
tour is frequently marred by too
much fat padding and too little
muscle. Exercise is the normaliz-
ing agent which develops the too
thin leg or reduces the fat leg
to ShapelineSs.
Thin or fat legs seem to run
in families, but exercise will de-
velop beautiful limbs in spite
Of your family tree. You appre-
ciate the truth of this promise
when you consider that although
q dancer may be threatened with
underweight, her legs are always
well developed.
You may not be able to do a
dance routine or have the time
for outdoor play, but you can
perform leg exercises that will
improve the contour.
Leg exercises should involve the
use of the hip and thigh muscles,
for these muscles are correlated
in action, and shapely legs go with
well-toned hip and thigh muscles.
The knee is fleXed and the entire
leg swung forward by the muscles
at the hip joint. The following
exercise strengthens the inner
thigh muscles and develops the
muscles of the calf:
Position: Standing erect, feet
apart and toes pointed outward,
hands on hips.
Movement: Slowly 60 into a
half-knee bend, turning the thighs
outward. Rise slowly and repeat
six times. Keep the trunk straight
and rise on the toes as you come up.
There is a special leaflet of leg
normalizing exercises, illustrating
the stretching movements to Slen-
deriZe thick calves and the con-
tracing movements to develop thin
legs. Send for this leaflet.

one OF their aims Is to
make towns and cities pro-
vide adequate drinking places for their pets.
And of their chief arguments endorsed by veter
narans, is that many supposedly mad dogs not
mad at all-but only thirsty!
Young Buddy Rockman, 7-year-old crusader for
bigger and better drinking fountains for dogs, is pic
tured here he demonstrates what other modern
boys hope to accomplish in the way of drinking places
for animals where nature has failed to provide a
creek or drinking pool Buddy is determined his pet
will have water and the nearest available foun
tain not patronzed by humans.
Many Western communities have ordinances re-
quiring drinking facilities in buildings and public
places but few have troubled to create dog drinking
fountains possibly because dogs have always occu-
pied anomalous position in the eyes of the law
Although dog pets are not classed as wild animals
they not like other domestic animals, regarded
by law the subject of property The utility of
certain species, especially in hunting, did gain for
them certain recognition during the reign of Queen
Elza5eth-and for time English law recognized
greyhounds mastiffs spanies and tumblers, and it
\ became misdemeanor to steal dog of this type.

Imperial Valley press., 1937-07-11

And today even in a state in which
dog is recognized as property, he may be
killed in self-defense or after due notice to
the owner if dangerous to the community.
The first mention of the dog in the Bible
occurs in connection with the sojourn of
the Israelites in Egypt, and the earliest
aluson to it as the companion of man Is in
the Book of Tobit. Among the ancient
Romans we have evidence of their use for
numerous purposes, and their study had
been so far advanced that a classification of
them was drawn up. Alcibiades is said by
Plutarch to have owned dog which cost
1000 drachmas about 100000 - in 450
B. c. when dogs were scarce!
In recent years humane societies are
found in many Pacific Coast centers, and
their activities include caring for lost pets
keeping them until the owner calls for
them, and exterminating those which have
been mortally hurt. The first of these or
ganizatons was founded at Cleveland, Ohio,
In 1877, to end cruelty to animals in trans
port between the states. This enterprise
soon influenced Congress to look into the
condition of such animals, and later ex-
tended its operations to the prevention of
cruelty to both children and pets.

Frank M, Smith formed that
was the general idea of our fore
fathers.
= Now, there is Senator A.
Harry Moore of New Jersey.
Senator Moore wants to return
to his own State and be gov
ernor. He's stated quite frankly
that he doesn't like the Capital
society very much, and he wants
to go back to his friends. There
might also be something to the
thought that he expects to use
the governorship, if he gets it,
as q springboard into the White
House.
To offset this there is the wish
of Governor George Earle of
Pennsylvania to be a Senator.
And then there is Senator Royal
S. Copeland, who has entered
the primaries for the job OF
mayor of New York.
Perhaps in this instance the
cheerful little earful is that if
he wins he's on his way to the
White House proves that all
these lanes lead to the Presi-
dency.
In that case there ought to be
taken into consideration that
Senators Barley, Byrd, ByrneS
and Clark also might be said to
have aspirations to reside at
1900 Pennsylvania Ave.

each one is making a play for
