HOME CURE FOR ECZEMA.

Oil of Wintergreen, Thymol, Glycerine, Etc., Used as a Simple Wash. / It really seems strange that so many people suffer year hi and year out with eczema, when It is now no longer a secret that oil of wintergreen mixed with thymol, glycerine, etc., makes a wash that is bound to cure. Old, obstinate cases, it Is true, cannot be cured In a few days, but there Is* absolutely no sufferer from eczema who ever used this simple wash and did not find immediately that wonderfully soothing, calm, cool sensation that comes when the itch is taken away. Instantly upon applying a few drops of the wash the remedy takes effect, the itch Is allayed. There Is no need of experiment—the patient knows at once. Instead of trying to compound the oil of Wintergreen, thymol, glycerine, etc., in the’ right proportions ourselves we are using a prescription which is universally found the most effective. It is known as the D. D. D. Prescription, or Oil of Wintergreen Compound. It Is made by the D. D. D. Co. of Chicago, and our long experience with this remedy has given us great confidence in its merits. B. F. FENDIG, Rensselaer, Ind. ,

The old fashioned way of dosing a weak stomach, or stimulating the : Heart or Kidneys is all wrong. Dr. Shoop first pointed out this error. This is why his prescription—Dr. I Shoop’s Restorative—is directed entirely to the cause of these ailments, the weak inside or controlling nerves. It isn’t so difficult, says Dr. Shoop, to strengthen a weak Stomach, Heart, or Kidneys, if one goes at it correctly. Each Inside organ has its controlling or inside nerve. When these nerves fail, then those organs must surely falter. These vital truths are leading druggists everywhere to dispense and recommend Dr. Shoop’s Restorative. Test it a few days, and see! Improvement will promptly and surely follow. Sold by all dealers.

PRICE vs. QUALITY And perfect fitting. Mere spectacles fitted in a haphazard way are apt to be an injury to the eyes. This is a matter in which you cannot afford to take chances. To preserve vision means to help the eyes do their work; to help the eyes means to wear glasses—not any glasses, but SCIENTIFICALLY fitted glasses. We are fully qualified in this line and would appreciate your patronage. Our glasses are reasonable in price—your sight is priceless. DR. ROSE M. REMMEK Second Floor of Harris Bank Building.
