If SKIN ITCHESAND BREAKS OUT
APPLY SULPHURGet Ounce of Bold-Sui-phur Cream and HealEczema Corruptions
Right Up
For years, common bold-sulphur has
occupied a secure position in the treat-ment of cutaneous affections, by reason
of its parasite-destroying property. Itis not only parasiticidal, but also anti-pruritic, antiseptic and remarkablyhealing in irritable and inflammatorycondition of the skin.
The moment you apply it to an itch-ing or broken out skin the itching stopsaud the healing begins, says a noteddermatologist. Just common bold-sul-phur made into a thick cream effectssuch prompt and remarkable results,even in aggravated Eczema that it isa never-ending source of amazement tophysicians.
While not always establishing a per-manent cure it never fails to subduethe angry itching and irritation andheal the Eczemat right up and it isoften years later before any eruptionagain appears on the skin.
Any good pharmacist will supply anounce of bold-sulphur which should beapplied to the irritated or inflamedparts, like the ordinary cold creams.It isn't unpleasant and the prompt re-lief afforded is very welcome, particu-larly when the eruption is accompaniedwith itching.?Adv.
tor. Frederick Krapf. The couple willreside at this place.

THE TRUTHABOUT CATARRH
A Germ Disease That Can Be StoppedBy Killing Germs Which Cause It
A good maiiy claims are made for thisand that remedy for Catarrh and doubt-less, if you are a sufferer from this dis-ease, you have yourself tried many ofthem and received no permanentbenfit.
The fact remains however, that there
is a way to get rid of catarrh forever jand certainly the method most likelyto succeed and to cure where all else jhas failed is one that your own drug- jgist has so much faith in that he will Isell it to you on a positive guarantee jof success or money back.
That's exactly the way that H. C.Kennedy and many other leading drug-gists in this vicinity are selling Hyomei,the great Catarrh germ-killer, a wonder-ful medicated but pleasant smelling airwhich you breathe into your nose,throat and lungs through a small in-haling device that druggists furnishwith it. Hyomei is made from the purehealing oil of Eucalyptus, combinerwith other powerful germicidal ingredi-ents and it not only clears up the headami air passages and heals the sore,swollen inflamed membranes of yournose and throat but it goes further'anddoes more. Its penetrating air is ab-solute and positive death to every ca-tarrh germ in your system. It destroysthem utterly. And when the germs gothe disease and all its disagreeable symp-toms stop. Ifyou have Catarrh breatheHyomei. It's the only sensible thing todo and you gain nothing and lose muchby waiting. Don't trust to memory.Cut this out of the paper now and takeit into your druggist the very next timeyou pass his store. Insist on'getting tliocomplete outfit which inctnrces tne Treerubber inhaler as it is very necessaryto use this inhaler to get best results.?Adv.
Girls?if you want plenty of thick,beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do bv allmeans get rid of dandruff, for it willstarve your hair and ruin it if youdon't. I
It doesn't do much gohd'to try tobrush or wash it out. The only sureway to get rid of dandruff is to dissolveit, then you destroy it entirely. To dothis, get about four ounces of ordinaryliquid ftrvon; apply it at night when re-tiring; use enough to moisten the scalpaud rub it in gently with the fingortips.
Bv morning, most if not all. of yourdandruff will be gone, and three or fourmore applications will completely dis-solve and entirely destroy every singlesign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itchingand digging of the scalp will stop, andyour hair will look and feel a hundredtimes better. Y'ou can get liquid arvoti
at any drug store. It is inexpensiveand four ounces is all you will need, nomatter how much dandruff you have.This simple remedy never fails.?Adv.

The Marvelous Manehuriansare general, all-around athletes. Theyperform innumerable uiiusual feats,many startling acrobatic feats aud
| much unusual juggling. Probably thej most spectacular part of their perform-
: ance is when several of them are sus-; pended by their queues while perfoni-I ing all manner of evolutions. Mr.ICheerbert has provided a handsomebackground for his performers and the
