Heal his itch- \
ing skin with
Resinol
The moment that Resinol Oint
ment touches itching skin the itch
ing usually stops andhealing begins.
That is why doctors have prescribed
it so successfully for over 20 years
even in severe cases of eczema, ring
worm, rashes, and many other tor
menting, disfiguring skin diseases.
Aided by warm baths with Resinol
Soap, Resinol Ointment makes a
sick skin or scalp healthy, quickly,
easily and at little cost.
Resinol Ointment and Resinol Soap also
greatly help to clear away pimples and dan
druff. Sold by all druggists. For trial free,

Skeleton Crews of Warships
Exhausted When Vessels
Dock After Cruel Cruise
Washington, D. C., May B.—So woe- I
fully undermanned that officers and !
mty> underwent constant nervous ten- j
sion from the extra duty they had to
perform, fhe battleships Wisconsin,
lowa and Missouri reached Annapolis
j Friday night from the Philadelphia
navy yard, whence they sailed Wednes
day morning.
On one of the vessels the captain
was on the bridge for forty-eight hours
continuously. There were only five
officers aboard. No more could be
spared for the trip, despite the fact
that the complement was more than
twoscore. The captain's meals wore
brought to him on the bridge for two
days. When Hampton Roads was
reached a halt was made to permit
him to catch a few hours''sleep after a
supply of ammunition had been taken
aboard.
There were not as many officers and
men aboard as are needed to man the
vessel efficiently when she is in re
serve In the back basin at League
Island. The crew was as short handed.
Regular watches for either men or
officers were out of the question. One
officer in the engine room had to be
put under the ship surgeon's care more
than once because of the prolonged
periods in which he was forced to re
main in a particular area of intense
heat.
The ships were ordered to Annapolis
to take aboard several hundred mid
shipmen for the summer cruises. The
trip was made In almost dead calm.
Veteran officers said that if heavy
weather had been encountered the ves
sels would have been in actual danger.
