SAVE WILLIAM PENN’S CHAIRS
LITTLE NEWS ITEMS
OF STATE INTEREST
Natiopal Heirlooms, About to Fall
Apart, Have Been Repaired
• by Blind Women.
Two quaint and graceful chairs that
once belonged to William Penn have
just been repaired by two women who
have-never Been the chairs, says the
Philadelphia Ledger. The two women
are Inmates of l(ie Pennsylvania In
dustrial Home for Blind Women. The
chairs are preserved In the east loom
of Independence hall, on the second
floor. Year by year the cane bottoms
of the famous old relics have been
gradual)}- cracking and falling out.
The committee In charge decided that
unlesqf i’he’cane wap replaced the
woodwork might" soon collapse. But
they did not dare to let the chairs
be taken out of Congress hall.
So they sent for Miss Ira Frost, mis
tress of handicraft at the Industrial
Home fbr Blind' Women;; and she
brought with her .to the room two of
the blind women who understood chair
repairing. The work was peculiarly
difficult, for It was impossible to erect
In Congress hall the caning table heed
ed to hold the chairs Jlrmly in place,
and, moreover, their woodwork waa
soft with age. But the deft ‘ seeing
fingers” of the hling women did the
work in spite of all the difficulties, and
now ttyq precious William Peun chairs
are safe.
Gossip will generally get there with
out the aid of a special delivery stamp.

BEST REMEDIES FOR
SORES AND ULCERS
Mr. C. A. Butler, of Salem, Va.,
writes: "I con safely say that Hap-
cock's Sulphur Compound Is the beBt
remedy I over used for soros. One of
my little boys, eight years old, had a
solid sore all ovor his face, wo tried
different kinds of medicine, but none
seemed to do ’any good'. Our son,
nineteen yenrs old, had a. sore on hts
log for three months and nothing did
him good. Wo used Hancock’s Sul
phur Compound on both and It did Its
work quickly and it was not over a
week until botli were well." Hancock’s

One of the hottest places where the
British are fighting Is in German
Southwest Africa, where General
Botha is in command of an expedition
against the enemy. The habitable part
of German Southwest Africa lies in
the center of a sun-scorched, water
less, shadeless deBert of shifting sand,
and General Botha'B men have to carry
everything they need, for nothing
whatever can be obtained from the
country, pot even fodder for the ani
mals.
The sand penetrates everywhere,
and the heat of the sun is so terrific
that all the troops fighting with Gen
eral Botha have been served out with
veils nnd “goggles." Without, them
indeed, it would be Impossible to get

of the Boer burghers, though hardened

WHAT TO DO FOR
YOUR ITCHING SKIN
Eczema, ringworm and other Itch
ing, burning skin eruptions are so
easily made worse by improper treat
ment that? one has to be very careful.
There is one method, however, that
you need not hesitate to use, even on
baby’s tender skin—that is the
resinol treatment. Resinol is the pre
scription of a Baltimore doctor, put
up in the form of resinol ointment
and resinol soap. This proved so re
markably successful that thousands of
other physicians have been prescrib
ing it constantly for 20 years.
Resinol stops itching instantly, and
almost always heals the eruption
quickly and at little cost. Resinol oint
ment and resinol soap can be bought
at any druggist’s and are not at aU
expensive. Great for sunburn.—Adv.
