Eczema—A Germ Disease Can Now Be Cured.

The medical profession is all agreed that ECZEMA is a germ disease, but the thing that has baffled them is to find some remedy that will get to the germs and destroy them. Zemo, the clean, external treatment has solved this difficulty by drawing the germs to the surface of the skin and destroying the germ life that causes the diseases. The whole method of treatment and cure by ZEMO is explained in an interesting book on the subject issued by the makers of ZEMO. It tells how to cure yourself at home of Eczema, Blackheads, Pimples, Dandruff, and all diseases of the skin and scalp. Call at A. F. Long’s Drug Store for Booklet and learn more about this clean, simple remedy that is now recognized the standard treatment for all diseases of the skin and scalp. 1 Force of habit and the pulling power of custom, as well as the wisdom of sticking to one's own line of business are illustrated in a story going the rounds, of a base ball reporter on a city paper who was sent to report a sermon by a new minister, because of the illness of the church reporter. Here is the "copy” he is said to have turned in: "Quite a bunch was present, last Sunday evening at the Third street church owing to the presence of a new star in the box and the boosters were anxious to get a line on his work. Rev. Blake is certainly there with the goods and performed to the satisfaction of all present. It being his first appearance on the local grounds he was a little nervous in the first inning, but later, encouraged by the coachers in the amen corner, he let himself out and had no trouble to put them over. From then on he had the game well in hand. His New Jerusalem slow ball is a peach, and when he turned loose on eternal punishment his speed was terrific. As this was his first work-out, it is too early to predict a future for him, but if he can keep up, the gait he has started, it’s him for the big league rext season."
