If SKIN ITCHES
AND BREAKS OUT
APPLY SULPHUR
Get Ounce of Bold-Sui
phur Cream and Heal
Eczema 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. It
is not only parasiticidal, but also anti
pruritic, antiseptic and remarkably
healing in irritable and inflammatory
condition of the skin.
The moment you apply it to an itch
ing or broken out skin the itching stops
aud the healing begins, says a noted
dermatologist. Just common bold-sul
phur made into a thick cream effects
such prompt and remarkable results,
even in aggravated Eczema that it is
a never-ending source of amazement to
physicians.
While not always establishing a per
manent cure it never fails to subdue
the angry itching and irritation and
heal the Eczemat right up and it is
often years later before any eruption
again appears on the skin.
Any good pharmacist will supply an
ounce of bold-sulphur which should be
applied to the irritated or inflamed
parts, like the ordinary cold creams.
It isn't unpleasant and the prompt re
lief afforded is very welcome, particu
larly when the eruption is accompanied
with itching.—Adv.
tor. Frederick Krapf. The couple will
reside at this place.

THE TRUTH
ABOUT CATARRH
A Germ Disease That Can Be Stopped
By Killing Germs Which Cause It
A good maiiy claims are made for this
and that remedy for Catarrh and doubt
less, if you are a sufferer from this dis
ease, you have yourself tried many of
them and received no permanent
benfit.
The fact remains however, that there
is a way to get rid of catarrh forever j
and certainly the method most likely
to succeed and to cure where all else j
has failed is one that your own drug- j
gist has so much faith in that he will I
sell it to you on a positive guarantee j
of 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 air
which you breathe into your nose,
throat and lungs through a small in
haling device that druggists furnish
with it. Hyomei is made from the pure
healing oil of Eucalyptus, combiner
with other powerful germicidal ingredi
ents and it not only clears up the head
ami air passages and heals the sore,
swollen inflamed membranes of your
nose and throat but it goes further'and
does more. Its penetrating air is ab
solute and positive death to every ca
tarrh germ in your system. It destroys
them utterly. And when the germs go
the disease and all its disagreeable symp
toms stop. If you have Catarrh breathe
Hyomei. It's the only sensible thing to
do and you gain nothing and lose much
by waiting. Don't trust to memory.
Cut this out of the paper now and take
it into your druggist the very next time
you pass his store. Insist on'getting tlio
complete outfit which inctnrces tne Tree
rubber inhaler as it is very necessary
to use this inhaler to get best results.
—Adv.
Dandruff Soon
Ruins the Hair
Girls —if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do bv all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you
don't. I
It doesn't do much gohd'to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid ftrvon; apply it at night when re
tiring; use enough to moisten the scalp
aud rub it in gently with the fingor
tips.
Bv morning, most if not all. of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop, and
your hair will look and feel a hundred
times better. Y'ou can get liquid arvoti
at any drug store. It is inexpensive
and four ounces is all you will need, no
matter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never fails.—Adv.
ter, Mrs.« Walter Baskin, at Fort
Hunter.

jest it- theatre for one performance on
Friday evening, January 15, of Miss
Kthel Barrymore, since it marks the re
turn of this ever popular artist in a
now play, one in which it is promised
she has been supplied with opportuni
ties, for the display of her splendid
I powers at their best. Miss Barry-
I more's present vehicle is entitled "The
j Shadow'' and is from the pens of Dario
i Niccodemi and Michael Morton. The
I latter is recalled as the author of "The
(Yellow Ticket" and numerous earlier
i successes, while Mr. Niccodemi owes his
! fame to several successes he lias writ
! ten for Madame Bejane. In fact, "The
j Shadow," under the title of "L'Om
j bre," was written by Niccodemi for
I that French actress, Ibut secured its
I tirst production on this side of the wa
j ter owing to the intolerable war condi
j tions in Paris. The Knglish transla
tion was made by Mr. Morton. Charles
j Frohman has surrounded Miss Barry
more with a distinguished company.
Bruce Mcßae, recalled for his associa
tion with Miss Barrymore in "Sun-
I day," "Lady Frederick,'' "Cousin
! Kate" and others of her notable sur
j cesses, essays the leading male role.
; Remaining roles are in the hands of
Grace Klliston, F.rnest I jaw ford, Kd

At the drpheum
The idea that the Chinese are in-
I ferior physically is almost universal.
If this is true, the wonderful physical
attainments of the #vo Chinamen com
posing Cheerbert's Marvelous Man
churians, who appear at the Orpheum
| this week, is unusually notable. The
| live men are perfect specimens of hu-
I inanity and their muscular development
[is phenomenal. They are all natives of
| Manchuria and have been together un-
I der the managerial wing of 'Air. Cl>eer
j bert for the past nine years. He has
j exhibited them with marked success in
j every section of the globe. This season,
i however, is their lirst in Anieuca. On
j account of the Chinese exclusion law,
considerable difficulty was encountered
is arrauging for their present engage
ments, and even now ea"h man is under
a heavy'bond to the United States gov
ernment. The Marvelous Manehurians
are general, all-around athletes. They
perform innumerable uiiusual feats,
many startling acrobatic feats aud
| much unusual juggling. Probably the
j 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.
I Cheerbert has provided a handsome
background for his performers and the
I costuming of the Celestials is hand
| some to the extreme. Cheerbert's Man
ehurians are offering oue of the clever
novelties of the Orpheum's current
j bill. Adv.*
At the Colonial
j The show that the management pre
j sents for the last half of the week
j would be hard, indeed, to surpass. Ta-
I ken in its entirety, it ranks with the
| best bill yet shown there and yester
day 's audiences seemed delighted. The
attractions presented include Whit
tier's Barefoot Boy, a clever whistling
novelty, calling in imitations of the
calls of various birds, etc.; Zinka Pan
na, the petite Spanish musician, known
as vaudeville's cleverest cymbaliste;
J Billy Tuite and company, presenting a
i festival of melody and mirth, and Ar
j thur 'Huston and company, in a corking
good novelty with delightful scenery,
entitled "Roosevelt in Africa." An
interesting moving picture program also
I holds forth to entertain admirers of
j that type of entertainment. Adv.*
