Medicine Taken Internally Cannot Cure Eczema, It Is Not Caused By Germs. Eczema cannot be overcome by ordinary treatment and the old-fash- ioned way of dosing the system with drugs, Eczema is caused by a para- sitic germ that bores into the skin. It is generally a contagious disease. Until the parasite is completely de- stroyed and removed, eczema cannot he cured. Fully one-third of skin diseases are in the form of eczema. We so thoroughly believe that Rexall Eczema Ointment will over- come eczema and allied skin ailments, that we unhesitatingly promise to promptly return the money paid us for it should it in any way be tin - satisfactory to the user. Because of its remarkable cleansing. antiseptic, germicidal, soothing and healing influence. Rexall Eczema Ointment has a very pronounced value in the treatment of skin diseases, especially where the form of ailment is of the chronic, aggravating sort. We highly recommend it for the dry scaly form or the weeping type, where there is a constant flow of ill -smell- ing excretion. Rexall Eczema Ointment is very prompt in relieving pimples, blotches, skin discolorations, ringworm, .acne, nettle rash, tetter, hives, ulcers, insect bites, and for healing sores and wounds.

Ruttan met with an accident, Some part of the harness broke, and the buggy ran on to the horses heels. Mr, Russell jumped and got off with a slight shaking up, hut Mr. Ruttan fared rather badly.

Telephone fuses and electric light lamps were put out of business in numerous instances and those closely connected therewith were consider- able shocked by the too near acquaint- ance of the current. The wonder was that more serious if not fatal results did not ensue. There was no rain at the time and it appeared to be a bolt out of a comparatively clear sky. � 1 CHRISTIE'S GROCERY PHONE 59 Pickling Time Success eau only bo had by rising the Best of Spices and Vinegars, The reason why some pickles don't taste as good as others is because inferior vinegar and poor quality spices are need.
