If you waat to cure that skin
ease of zeurs, you can only bo sa
. by using an ointment so refined as
to be capable lif penetrating to the
root of the disease. Zam-Buk is
capable of doing this, whereas or-
dinary ointments remain on the sue.
face skin.
ilesides its wonderful power of
penetration, Za.m-Duk is such a
strong germicide that germs cannot
live where Zarn-Buk ix applied.
Thus, all germs, both on the surface
and in the underlying tissues, are
destroyed. Then the herbal essences,
of which Zam-Buk is composed, pro-
mote the growth of new tissue, and
a complete and permanent cure is
the result.
Prove it for yourself. All drug-

HAIG 13 A LUCKY MP'
BRITISH COMMANDER HAS HAD
GREAT GOOD FORTUNE.
Soldiers in. France Are Looking .for
Further Manifestations of Bril-
liant Leader's Luck -He is Ten
Years Younger Than French, and
More Likely to Take Suggestions
From the French Commanders.
EN. SIR DOUGLAS HAIG,
commander of the British
forces in France and Bel-
gium, is 55 years old, ten
years younger than Sir
John French. It is said that the fact
that Sir Douglas is a young general,
and *trot a field marshal, was influen-
tial in forming the decision, which
placed him in charge of the British
army. His predecessor had seen
muth more of actual fighting than
any of his French colleagues; be
was an older man than most of them.
Technically, he was of higher rank.
It was not easy for Sir Sohn French,
therefore, though in command of a
very small army, as compared with
the Freneh, and holding only a few
miles of front, to take orders from
men who were his juniors in years
and technics. rank, and who had .no
such actual military experience. If
there was any friction between the
French and British commanders in
the past, there is no suspicion, that
it exists to -day, In fact, there is
fPrery reason to suppose that Sir
Douglas Haig would not have been
given his comraand without Joffre be-
ing consulted,
So far the proverbial "Haig luck"
continues, Sir Douglas has, been a
lucky man since he entered the Brit-
ish army, and luck with ability
makes a winning combination, It
cannot be said that Sir Douglas
Haig's atttual experience of fighting
is nearly as great as that of other
British generals, who might be men-
tioned. Sir Ian gamilton, for in-
stance, has eeen ten times the fight-
ing that Haig has been through, but
the Brithila general staff evidently
tame to the conclusion that Haig
had qualities more important than
experience. In fact, experience pre-
vious to this war has not been of
much use. It might indeed be a
handicap; and =so fur as this war is
concerned Sir Douglas Haig has had
as much experience as anyone. He
was among the first to reach the
Continent, and commanded the first
army corps at the /tattle of Mons,
the retreat through Belgium, the
Battles of the Marne, the Aisne and
the Yser.
Sir Deuglas Haig is an admirable
representative of the untitled aristo-
cracy of Great Britain. His father
Ws Tolm. Haig, of RaMornie, Fife;
and his mother was Raehael Veitch,
of Stewartfield, Midlothian. She was
also an heiress, For six centuries
the ancostral lands of the Haig; in
rifeshire' have been held in the di-
rect line of descent, and as far baek
as the family can be traced, the men
were chiefly soldiers. It was of this
family that Thomas the Rhymer
chanted in the thirteenth century:
"Tide, tide, what e'er betide,
There's are be Haigs in Bamersyde."
Douglais began his education at
Olifton, and later entered Brasenose,
Orford. Here he had some training in
the Office s' Corps, and after gradua-
tion he : . tered the regular army as
