USESUIPHURTO HEAL YOUR SKIN Broken Out Skin and litching Eczema Helped Over Night. * ~ For unsightly skin eruptions, rash or blotches on face, nack, arms or body, you do not have to wait for relief from torture or embarrassment, declares a noted skin specialist. Apply a little Rowles Mentho-Sulphur and Improvement shows next day. . Because of its germ destroying properties, nothing has ever been found to take the place of this sulphur preparation. The moment you apply it healing begins. Only those who have had unsightly skin troubles can know the delight this Rowles Mentho-Sul-phur brings. Even fiery, itching eczema is dried right up. Get a small jar from any good druggist and use it like cold cream. — o MARKETS-STOCKS Daily Report of Local and Foreign Markets New York Stock Exchange New York.

Stone Quarries Hide Many Stolen Articles There is every reason to believe that abandoned stone quarries and gravel pits, especially those close to highways, around Portland, Berne, Geneva. Decatur, Bluffton. Montpelier. Hartford City, and other places having these abandoned quarries or pits nearby are the resting places of many an automobile, motorcycle, and other artbles of value, in the machinery line. Stolen automobiles or motorcycles caa not always be sold readily, and' Oftentimes the thief is closely pursued and ho must dispose of the stolen machine as quickly as possible, on be caught with it in his~ possession. In this case it is an easy matter to drive the machine into one of these abandoned of quarries, many of wliph are close to highways and have no fences around them. As the waters in them are very deep the stolen automobile finds a resting place far beneath the surface of the water, and the crime is securely hid. There is no doubt but what in some ase, were these automobiles raised to the surface there would be found the whitened skeleton of, some one foully murdered, perhaps an accessory in some crime, and whose body was securely attached to the machine before being run into the .watery depths. Time with its natural decay, aided by fish, will have eaten away all clothing anti flesh. It is thought that the gang of automobile thieves known to have been operating throughout this section of the country, have gotten away with many a stolen car in this manner. Many of these stolen cars were repainted and sold. But these thieves were mostly youths and they did not always find opportunities to hide away the stolen machine until such time as it could be re-painted, new license plates attached, and distinguishing marks, and numbers obliterated, and then sell the auto. In this case, the easiest way to dispose of the stolen property was to run it into some quarry. A story is told of one case where a mortorcycle was deliberately run
