A Message
to Skin Sufferers
• Ttitfl! e many skin sufferers, I
among them may be yourself, who
have endured for many years the tor
ment or humiliation of some form
of skin disease, who have tried every
form of treatment, -who have follow
ed ail manner of advice and still
have been unable to find the relief
which they sought.
Your trouble may be only a mild
form of simple skin eruption—no
great suffering, but very, very hu
miliating and unjomfortable. Your
face is I disfigured and you are
ashamed to appear among your
friends. You wish to clear away
the blight that hangs like a drawn
curtain between yourself and your
companions.
Skin Diseases a Torment
Or you are consumed, perhaps, with
the burning fire of a violent skin dis
ease. The scales and the scabs cover
your, arms, your legs, your entire
body. - Yost are driven wild with the
greedj F itch that cannot be soothed
or quieted. You know no sleep; your
waking hours are hours of intense
misery. You cry out for relief!
Times without number have you
followed some hopeful advice, and
eadh time you have met only disap- !
pointment and despair.
’ “Who knows, ’’ you ask. “Whose ad- ■
vice may I follow?”
Here is an answer given you hon
estly and frankly.
Reputable physicians will tell you
today that the medical profession
can only guess at what is the true
cause of skin disease. Some say t
is a blood disease and try reatments
through the bloo'" 1 Others say it is
a skin disease, pure and simple, anl
treat the disease through the skin.
But science isn’t sure. We shall
not presume, then, to tell you what
skin disease is when science itself
■'’'■onkly admits that it cannot tell.
. »jut ws can tell you about a pre
which has been used for
twertiSrfive years in the treatment
of skifi disease. And, without mak- '
Ing fwr “rer cla’ms, we ask you to
rtAd the, letters from those who have j
used it.
- .. Doctor’s Prescription
•y.* D. D? Prescription is the form
ula of a physician, Dr. D. D. Dennis,

We make no extravagant claims

HISTORIC BOSTON COMMON
TO BE SLICED FOR STREETS
BOSTON.—Boston is preparing to
alter some of its most cherished his
toric features to meet the demands of
modern conditions. Small strips are
to be sliced from Boston Common,
training grounds for troops in Revo
lutionary days, and arcading of the
tower of the Old South Meeting
House, where the famous ‘'tea party”
was hatched, is contemplated. Traf
fic problems, acute in this city of nar
row “cow lane” streets, in each case
are responsible.
The paring of the Common on two
sides of its forty-three-acre area has
been sanctioned only after overcom
ing Ibhg standing opposition by
those Who held that no considerations
of modern development should dis
turb this Revolutionary landmark
and present-day breathing space in
the city’s center. Several years ago
the voters turned down a proposal
to shrink the Common in order to
swell the streets. But in the recent
city election the voters in all but
two wards declared in favor of widen
ing the streets from Common land.
The two wards which opposed the
plan are in Charlestown, seat of
another historic shrine. Bunker Hill

Boston Common was bougnt t
1634 by Governor Winthrop and oth
ers as a common cow pasture and
training ground, and was one of sev
eral such tracts of communal lands
and planting grounds. Today it is
the sole remainder of these ancient
commons, other holdings having
passed into private hands.
It was on Boston Common that j
Revolutionary soldiers drilled; from
its limits at Park Square, tnen tne
Back Bay in fact as well as in name,
and now “made land,” the British
started for Lexington April 19, 1775.

their forces to attack Bunker Hill

Ten Years Misery Ended
For ten years I have had a severe case
of eczema and about one-half of that time I
could not appear in public. I tried every
thing. but found no permanent relief until
my druggist recommended D. D. D.
I beg every eczema sufferer to begin using
D D. D. at once and continue using it and
feel sure that they will find permanent re

Eczema Torture
—A Touch of D.D.D.
Instant Relief
For months I did not know what it was
to enjoy a night of unbroken sleep, for I
had a severe case of itching eczema which
was a perfect torture. I am so thankful
for having heard of your D. D. D. remedy
I scarcely know how to say enough for it.
The first application gave complete relief,
•and 1 decided to keep on using it, and after
three months’ treatment find myself com
pletely well. To anyone suffering with skin
disease I would say, “For your own sake
use I). D. D.” It will heal you.

Sore Covered Skin Now Smooth.
After four years’ suffering, D. D. D. gave
me almost instant relief, and ms legs that ■
had been raw sores with eczema were per
fectly smooth in four weeks. I used several
preparations put up for eczema, but none
ever did me any good until I tried I). D. D.

Sample Bottle Does the Work.
I received your sample bottle of D. D. D.
and it has done so much good I sent to the
drug store and got one bottle and it cured
me of the barbers’ itch. I have had dif
ferent doctors and I have spent $30.00.
They all used salves but they didn’t do me
any good. I can’t praise your D. D. D. too
much.

After Four Years
No Sign of
Dreaded Eczema!
I suffered for five years with the worst
ease of ringworm or dry eczema I ever saw.
Tried everything I heard of or read about;
also three doctors; I got no relief. Finally
I,read of D. D. D, and tried a sample. It
did me good and '4 got a full size bottle,
and before I used half of it I was healed
and for four years I have stayed cured, not
having seen one sign of return.

About ten years ago D. D. D. healed me
of the worst case of eczema I. ever saw and
it has never returned. I could never stop
recommending it as long as i live.

Instant Relief!
About three years ago an itching scaly
eruption appeared on my head. I tried sev
eral salves and remedies, but it kept grow
ing worse and kept spreading. Night after
night I walked the floor unable to sleep
from the constant pain, itching and burn
ing. A friend recommended Three D. for
eczema. I tried it and the first anplication
gave me groat relief, stopped the itching so
I could sleep. After applying it for several
months I was entirely healed.

Constant Torture Ended.
I certainly can recommend your medicine
in this community for what it has .already
done for me. I had not had a good night’s
rest for five months until I commenced using

after suffering five months oftufevere torture.

siege of Boston. Colonial expeditions
set out x against Louisburg and Que
bec from the old Common, and Mas
sachusetts regiments assembled
there prior to going to the front in
the Civil War.
The proposal to cut into the Old
South Meeting House, which was
buil-t in 1729, to obtain partial relief
from traffic congestion on Washing
ton . Street, is still under considera
tion.
Under the plan the main part of
the church, in which the colonists
worked out schemes for the “tea
party” and which was later used by
the British as a riding school during
the siege of Boston, would not be dis
turbed. The tower, which juts out
some twenty t'eet from the front of
the edifice, would be arcaded to pro

Distinctive Design for
Currency Issues Fixed
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—1 n order
to circumvent counterfeiting and de
nominational raising, Secretary Glass
has ordered adoption of a distinctive
design for all future issues of cur
rency, it was announced today. This
standardization, Mr. Glass believed,
would serve as a safeguard against
“one of the greatest dangers of the
treasury- and to the public because
of the multiplicity of designs now
in use.”
The denominational portraits pre
scribed for the future, some of which
now are in use, are:
One dollar, Washington: $2. Jef
ferson; $5, Lincoln; ?10, J.. < /on;
S2O, Cleveland; SSO. Grant; SIOO,
Franklin; SSOO, Marshall; SI,OOO,

I Perhaps indeed these letters are too
i enthusiastic. But if so, may not the
I writers be excused in the knowledge
that they wrote in the ecstasy of re
lief —in the joy of freedom from
years of suffering?
One thing is sure. Regardless of
what they said, the spirit of what
they said is unmistakable. It rings
true. Joy, relief, gratitude, happi
ness!
If they have won this feeling, why
not you? If you could but have the
feeling that inspires such letters,
freely written, what would you not
give? What more indeed can you ask?
WeTl not say that tjiese grateful
correspondents are relieved, healed or
cured, but we will say that they are
HAPPY AGAIN, after years of pain
and suffering—and that’s what D. D.
D. Prescription offers to do for you.
We make no claims. You can draw
far greater confidence and comfort
from what D. D. D. has done through
the past twenty-five years than from
anything we can now say.
D. D. D. Prescription will be found
effective in cases of Eczema, Pso
riasis, Ringworm, Bather’s Itch,
Hives, Rash, Acne, Dandruff. Pim
ples often yield to treatment over
night. In all cases, D. D. D. gives
relief from itching upon the first
application.

the fourth member of the gang of
boys accused of setting more than
fifty houses afire in Brooklyn, N. Y.,
in the last three months to make
opportunities for stealing from
nearby houses, has been arrested in
New York. His arrest was due to
the confession made by the three
boys arrested previously—John Mey

Pappa. Michel’s home at 131 Noli

Fire Marshal ,Brophy and Eugene

fifteen-year-old boys at the Chil

who was held in the Gates avenue

statements with a list of incendiary,

the four boys had started more than
fifty fires, causing more than $50,000
damage, but no injury or loss ot
life.
Meyer, although only fifteen, un

was the head of the gang, the police
say.
It was as though some quirk of
Meyer’s character had turned all his
faculties into wrong channels, the
detectives said. His ascendancy over

was the one. according to the police,
who planned and directed the cam

police, would start operations. .They
would sneak into one of the houses,

one that yielded.
They did not bother with silver.
They seldom touched jewelry, having
been fooled once or twice by impres

to be imitations. Wallets and wom

were their chief spoil. Experience
taught them that these were to be
found most often in the sleeping
rooms of a flat, a fact which facili

was tenanted at all, its occupants
always were leaning out the front
windows while the bedrooms gener

sped straight to the top floor, opened
the scuttle and departed byway of

told the police, was spent on candy,

BY MEANS OF HUGE ROCKET

“The great scientific value of Pro

the announcement, “lies in the possi

ratus to moderate and extreme alti

as to their chemical composition,
temperature, electrical nature, den

“The highest level that has ever
been reached up to the present time
with recording instruments is about
nineteen miles, accomplished with a
free balloon. As the earth’s atmos
phere extends some 200 miles out,
there is a great unknown region,
knowledge of which would greatly
benefit science of meteorologfy.

Armour Must Answer
To U. S. for Halting
Competition in South
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—Carry
ing out its announced intention of
taking action against unfair trade
practices of the big packers despite
settlement by the department of jus
tice of pending anti-trust proceed
ings, the federal trada commission
today cited Armour & Co. in a for
mal complaint alleging unfair meth
ods of competition i:i violation ot
the federal trade commission act an<
the acquisition of control of com
peting concerns in violation of th<
Clayton act.
The complaint charges that Ar
mour & Co. by acquiring control oi
two competing concerns, the Look
out Refining company, Chattanooga
Tenn., refiners anij dealers In cotton
seed oil and lard substitutes, anc
the Harris Tannery company, late,
known as the Sylva Tanning com
pany, Sylva, N. C., eliminated those
concerns as competitors in their re
spective lines of business and re
strained interstate commerce in the
commodities in which the compa
nies dealt.
Boats Become Floating
Hotels to Aid Renters
ALBANY, N. Y.-—Floting hotels
were put in operation here to relieve
the housing conditions, and particu
larly the congestion which has
marked Albany hotels the last two
years.
Two of the largest night line
steamers plying the Hudson river,
after having had their light and
water systems hooked up to the mu
nicipal supply here, were opened to
the public as floating hotels and
ready for business.
Each of the boats has accommo
dations for 400 guests, and on each
■frieals will be served and hotel
service maintained. It is. believed
this is the first time in the history
of the country that boats, compelled
to cease operations by freezing of a
river, have been utilized as hotels.
Not Immoral for Women to
Smoke, Says N. Y. Judge
NEW YORK.—Smoking of ciga
rettes by women has been judicially
decreed as not immoral.
The decision was made by Supreme
Court Justice Mullan in a separation
suit in which counsel for the husband
tried to show that cigarettes had
been found in the wife's dresser
drawer and that this constituted evi
dence of “bad character.’’
“It is not immoral for women to
smoke cigarettes,” declared the judge.
“Some of the best women in the
country and in the world smoke
cigarettes. It would not make any
difference if she ha« a thousand pack
ages of cigarettes there.
“This isn’t Hickville, out in the
center of the farm country.”
States Active in Road Work
Aside from money to be used co
operatively under the federal aid
road act, aggregating nearly $680,-
000,000, some states will expend
large sums, and their several subdi
visions will provide large additional
amounts.
“It is interesting to note that up
to July 1, 1919,” says the secrete?"
of agriculture in his annual report,
“state bond issues aggregating $224,-
800,000 had been authorized and ap
proved by popular vote and that pro
vision has been made for voting nex r
years on proposals for the issuance
of additional state road ponds to
the extent of approximately $314,-
000,000. During the present and the
next fiscal year there will be made
available for road improverpent at.
least $1,000,000,000. Certainly few,
laws, if any, have produced greater
results.’ either in terms of expendi
tures fpr a good purpose or in terms
of helpful legislation and machinery,
than the federal aid road act. It
seems clear, in the circumstances.'
that the principal limiting factors
ii> the 1920 program will be those ofi
rail transportation for, and produc
tion of, suitable road materials, the
contractors’ organizations available,
and the labor supply.”
