S. S. S. will rid you of boils, pimples,
blackheads and skin eruptions!
DON’T CLOSE your eyes to the
warning which Nature gives when
angry, painful boils appear on your
neck, face or other parts of your
body. Boils, pimples and so-called
skin disorders are the result of an
impoverished condition of the blood
and are not to be trifled with.
It is nothing more than folly to ex
pect to get absolute relief from the
use of local treatments, such as oint
ments, salves, etc. Such remedies may
afford temporary relief but you want
more than relief; you want a remedy
which will rid you forever of the tor
turing disorder. And the one remedy
which has no equal is S.S.S.
S.S.S. stops boils and keeps them
from coming. S.S.S. builds blood
power! That is what makes fighting
blood. Fighting blood destroys im
purities. It fights boils! It fights skin
eruptions —pimples, blackheads, ec
zema! It always wins! S.S.S. has
been known since 1826 as one of the
greatest blood builders, blood cleans
ers and system strengtheners ever
produced. There are no unproven
theories about S.S.S., the scientific
results of each of its purely vege
table medicinal ingredients are ad
mitted by authorities. Begin taking
S.S.S. today and clear your skin of
those blood disorders!
k S.S.S. is sold at all grood drug
stores in two sizes. The larger size
is more economical.

LETTERS FROM 1
MR. D. C. COLLIER
Grand Hotel,
Et De Milano, Italy,
January 7, 1925.
Dear Father:—
Arrived here today from Lucern,
only stayed there one day on account
of the extremely bad weather; it was
raining and very damp under foot
Tuesday. I had a daylight trip
through the Alps today and the
scenery was most wonderful indeed.
We passed many lakes, all of them a
rich blue color. Many of the moun
tains were covered with snow; took
quite a large number of views
(photos) from the train. I certain
ly wonder how the Swiss mountain
eers live on the sides of these moun
tains. Passed through Como and of
course saw Lake Como. Milan is a
much nicer city than 1 thought;
haven’t seen the city yet, only the
business portion.
I have some commercial engage
ments for tomorrow. Am feeling ex
tremely good today on account of
the wonderful sunshine we have had
all day. In a measure I commence
to think about home when I am tied
up on account of the weather and
can’t get out, as in about thirty days
I will commence to pack my grips
and return to America. There are
a number of very artistic shops here
handling antiques, etc, and the prices
in Italy are very cheap, but very
dear in Switzerland, so I bought
nothing much from the Swiss. I
didn’t care much for the Swiss peo
ple; they did not look to suit me;
their manners, customs and dress are
not our way of thinking, tho they
are very thorough and industrious.
Zurich was a very beautiful city
and Lake Lucerne was a thing of
beauty. Will close for this time as
I will have to get busy tomorrow on
my business engagements and get
ready to pack my grips in a day or
two for Naples, Nice, Rome, etc. I
expect to be back in Paris around
February Ist.
Love to all the family.
Sincerely,
DURWARD.
Grand Hotel, Rome,
Jan. 14, 1925.
Dear Father:—
Arrived here last night from
Venice after traveling all day; rather
tiresome trip as there were no Eng
lish people around; the weather was
ideal, tho, and is still so here. Got
a good idea of the Italian farming
districts.
Today I spent interviewing the
American consul and ambassador and
the Italian Viscosa, but was not suc
cessful in getting thru at this town.
Have engagements at Lyons to go
thru one or two textile mills and in
terview the managers and directors.
The Trust Cos. has also made
dates for me to visit textile plants
at Marseilles and later at Lille,
France. I am certainly becoming
well posted about the European na
tions, their ways and customs even
in so short a time. Business condi
tions in Italy are steadily improving,
also in all other European countries.
Sorry I did not get to go to Berlin,
but on account of the weather condi
tions in Germany and not feeling
very well did not care to take the
chance of going into the very cold
weather they are now having.
This morning received all of the
Berlin mail, also received all mail
sent to me here at Rome. I note
the deal you have made which
is 0. K. Also letter from the par
ties in New York City. I find Italy
cheaper than any country in Europe.
They are making some wonderful
merchandise at Milan from cotton
and art silk.
Shall see the remains of old Rome
Tuesday and Wednesday, also the
ruins of Pompie Thursday, Friday
and Saturday. Sunday I will travel
over to Nice, arriving Sunday after
noon.
Will close, feeling O. K., but tired
as I have to rush when I have so
many places to go and so many com
mercial engagements to meet. I
have met with a royal reception all
over Europe from each and every one
I became acquainted with, have been
entertained in royal style. I shall
return to Manchester, England, about
the first of February to spend three
or four days and then sail for Amer
ica. With best wishes to all my
friends and love to the family.
Sincerely,
DURWARD.
Hotel Royal Danieli Venise,
Venice, Italy, Jan. 9, 1925.
Dear Father: —
Arrived here tonight from Milan,
after spending two days. On Thurs
day I went with Mr. Spaini to visit a
real silk manufacturing plant at
Monza and very modem it was. Some
of these Italians are smarter than
we have given them credit for, in
fact, I am surprised to find them so
much up to date. Milan is the tex
tile center of Italy—cotton, silk and
art silk. The art silk manufactur
ing has doubled in twelve months.
This morning I am to meet and go
thru the mills of the Societe Chatil
lon of Piedmont, likewise the Ameri
can consul is making arrangements
for me to visit the Societe Visoza at
Turin. I was introduced by the
Banque Populaire of Zurich to some
of the largest textile manufacturers
of Lucerne. They are all making
enormous profits over in this country
now and many new plants are under
construction in Switzerland, Italy,
France and England. The American
consul is arranging to introduce me
to the various textile plants around
Rome.
The taxies in Milan are the best
and cheapest in Europe; one can ride
an hour for 50c and they do go for
speed. Mussolini is dong wonders
for Italy; he has the backing and
confidence of big business.
There are literally millions of mul
berry trees in this section. The
country is almost flat, land very fer
tile and well cultivated. Italy is on
the eve of a big industrial expansion,
much new machinery coming in, new
factories going up, etc., and the peo
ple are beginning to wake up under
Mussolini’s leadership. One of their j
worst customs is the closing of all j
shops and factories two hours for
lunch, they then work until seven
thirty P. M.
Venice I can’t describe as yet ex
cept I am now in the best hotel I
have been in since I have been in
Europe at a most reasonable price.
I was ushered into a gondola by the
hotel porter on my arrival at the
station and was rowed to the hotel
up the Grand Canal. This city is
different from any 1 have seen.
I have been tempted to cut out
part of my trip as I am growing tired
but finally decided to stick it thru
and complete my itinerary as mapped
out before I left America. At times
1 get quite a bit homesick as 1 find
so few English speaking people over
in this part of Europe but realize
that it won’t be long till I am back
so I must see all I can while I am
over here.
The Italian railroads are very
poor so I only travel in the day. I
received your mail at Zurich. I
leave here Sunday morning for Rome;
will cut out Florence on this trip.
Sincerely,
DURWARD.

ear of corn. Parcel post entries will
be received any time up to the night
of March 7, and each ear must have
the name, address, county and state
of its owner on a paper which should
