WHAT TO DO FOR
ITCHING SKIN
AH the Burning. Smarting Torment of
Eoifmn Quickly llnnlMheri With
Simple Home Treatment
When the skin fairly burns and
Itches until you feel as if you would
like to scratch till the blood comes,
don't dalay, don't continue to suffer,
but get from your druggist at once
some antiseptic Vcanol, apply as di
rected and enjoy the Blessed relief it
brings. The cooling, soothing, heal
ing balsam-like ingredients of Ucanol
sink right into the skin and almost In
stantly stop the angry Itching, nnd
soon clears away all rashes, pimples,
sores or other skin eruptions. It speeds
up nature to form new, healthy skin.
Antiseptic Ucanol is now being rec
ommended by H. C. Kennedy in large,
Inexpensive family jars. It has not only
been wonderfully efficient In almost
every known form of skin disease but
for piles. One delighted user has Just
written: "Ucanol is the best pile cure
In the world. I tried everything rec
ommended to me without relief till I
got Ucanol."
For cuts, burns or bruises use Ucanol
■—it acts so quickly, so safely and effi
ciently that many factories where ac
cidents are of frequent occurrence al
ways have a supply of Ucanol for first
Hid to the injured. Xo household should
be without its package of Ucanol.—Ad

Says Acid Stomachs
Need Magnesia
(alia nUnrntrri Mn»nr*ln Safest. Quick
est and Hint Effective Food and
Acid Stomach Corrective
Yet Found
The almost universal use of magnesia
bv physicians and specialists in the
treatment of stomach troubles is due
to the fact that it quickly neutralizes
the excessive acid Iu the stomach and
thus stops food fermentation —the di
rect cause of nearly all stom&ch trou
ble. Of the many forms of of magne
sia such as liquids, oxides, citrates, car
bonates, sulphates, etc.. the .most suit
able and efficient for stomach purposes
is bisurated, magnesia a teaspoonful of
which taken in a little water after eat
ing or whenever indigestion is felt will
instantly neutralize or dissolve the ex
cessive acid, stop fermentation and make
painless and normal digestion easv. Be
sure to insist therefore that your drug
gist supply you with magnesia in the
bisurated form—either powder or tab
lets. Stomach sufferers who follow
this plan and avoid the use of pepsin,
charcoal, soda mints, drugs and mec|U
cines are astonished to find the stom
ach once relieved of the Irritating acid
and gas, soon regains its normal tone,
and can do its work alone without the'
doubtful aid of artificial digestents.

WEDNESDAY EVENING,
STANDARDIZATION
OF TRADE URGED
Wilson Recommends Co-opera
tion Between Federal Com
mission and Businessmen
By Astocialtd Pren
■Washington. D. C., May 17. Co
operation between the federal trade
commission and business Arms and
commercial organizations with the
object of standardizing trade is rec
ommended by President Wilson in a
letter to Edward X. Hurley, vice
chairman of the commission, made
public to-day at the White Mouse. The
President urges that the commission
investigate industries and „if it flnds
any not "healthy" it suggest a
"practical and helpful remedy."
The President wrote to Mr. Hurley
to commend him for suggestions made
in a recent speech at Boston in which
Mr. Hurley told of efforts being made
by the commission to assist the small
manufacturer and merchant in better
ing his condition by helping him im
prove his cost accounting and book
keeping methods.
I "This is a step in the right direction
and one of the main fundamentals of
any successful business." said the
; President. "Your suggestion that
Trade associations, associations of re
j tall and wholesale merchants, com
: mercial clubs, boards of trade, raanu
' facturers' associations, credit asso
! ciations and other similar organiza
! tlons should be encouraged in every
feasible way by the government seems
to me a very wise one.
"Too niuch erttphasls cannot be
! placed on your suggestion that mate
| rials, methods and products In in
• dustrv should bp standardized upon
the basis of specifications drawn up
in friendly co-operation with en
gineering societies, industrial experts
and trade associations. Further stand
ardization in our industries will not
only reduce the cost of production,
but assure the producer better mate- .
rials and more efficient workmanship,
'and to the consuming public the mani- |
fest benefit resulting from not having
to pay for a wide and increasing |
variety of products and materials."
PLANT EXPLORATION

carry these frozen parcels of scions
and cuttings around with him some
times for weeks before he reached a 1
postofflce that would forward them dl- j
rect to the department at Washing- j
ton, or to the consul-general at Shan- j
t,hai.
Growing in the seml-arld sections of |
iChina, generally neglected and In soil
of alkaline substance, Mr. Meyer
found the jujube tree. He Immedi
ately bethought him of the semi-arid
regions of the American southwest;
and packed some jqjubes off to the [
department, which planted them in !
California and Texas. The jujube,
in its wild state, grows in the waste
places and sprawls over ancient walls
j in northern China, producing a small,
hard, sour fruit which is not fit for'
| use. By crossing the various species,
of which there are nearly four hun
dred, the Chinese farmers have pro- i
duced a fruit that is sweet and luclous,
i highly prized by the mandarins for
! Xew Tear's presents and by the keep- I
jers of hotels catering to the European ]
trade. The jujube tree is now bear- 1
I ing heavy crops in Fresno, Chico, Indio
and Bard, California, and in Fort
i Worth, Austin and San Antonio, Tex. j
Years ago. a quantity of jujubes were '
distributed throughout the southern
I Atlantic States, but being seedlings,
these trees did not produce good fruit.
The Chinese are now growing a
large variety of persimmon, unknown
in this country, for drying purposes.
The fruit is picked just as it ripens
and before it has had a chance to be
come mushy and soft. It is then
peeled and slashed and strung up on
lines to dry in the sun and wind.
When it has been thus suspended for
several weeks, it is distributed in piles ,
and covered with matting, when the
curing process begins forming an outer
layer of grape-sugar. This persim
mon is also flourishing wherever It has
been planted in our southwest.
While traveling on foot through a
deep ravine in northern China, Mr.
i Meyer came upon what is thought
Ito be the original wild peach from
which all the cultivated species of the
world were grown. t-'pon question-'
ling the Chinese gardeners, he found,
.that they were using the roots of this
plant for grafting purposes since it
was resistant to alkali and cold. He
succeeded in shipping seeds of this va
riety to the department that have since
i produced excellent results in Califor
nia and Texas, and have even flour
ished beyond the northern peach belt;
