What TO DO FOR
ECZEMA ITCHING
AND BURNING

Wash the affected parts with
Resinol Soap and warm water to
soften scales and crusts. Resinol
Soap is suggested because it con-
tains no excess Of free alkali, and
cleanses the tender skin so care
fully. Dry by patting with a soft
cloth-do not rub.
Many doctors recommend an oily
ointment because it holds the medi-
cation in contact with the irritated
skin surface, giving prolonged &C.
ton. Resinol Ointment meets this
requirement, and does even more.
For nearly 45 years it has been
and still is - successfully used to
relieve quickly the itching and burn
ing of eczema. 1t contains soothing
ingredients that aid healing.
Use Resinol Ointment today and
enjoy comfort tomorrow. Get jar,

Hidden springs are being uncover
ed in European relationships at the
League of Nations court-martial of
Russia over the invasion of Finland.
The harsh feelings displayed be-
tween Moscow and the Anglo-French
allies as a result of this imbroglio
have created fresh talk regarding
the real and the potential relations
among the European powers.
Even in Unconditional quarters
some of the speculation has been
startling, though no more so than
is the muddled international situa-
ton of the Old World.
One idea with which Europe Just
now is toying I heard put in words
couple of weeks ago at Yale Uni
versity. "Is there any possibility Of
Germany and the Anglo-French
allies uniting ultimately against
Soviet Russia?"
The questioner apologized for the
query, saying he never had dared
raise it before because it seemed so
far-fetched. Well, he wasn't the
only one thinking along that line,
and the idea really isn't so far
fetched after all, when one analyses
the situation.
Some Thinking of Peace.
Fitting rather we'll into this pic
ture was the debate in the British
House of Lords yesterday as to
whether profitable peace could be
