Sntcrcd at the Postoffice at Plymouth, I4iaaa m second-class matter. Plymouth Indiana March 24, 1910 WOULD BE SAVING Editor Tribune: I was very much surprised to see in last night's papers that one mayor and one of our councilmen are opposing sc- good a thing as a public library. They seem to be scared about the taxes. Now I am one of the tax payers of Plymouth and pay more than the average citizen, tew. Just to see how it would affect me I tiki a. little figuring. My assessed valuation runs at about $3,000 a year. ,Xow as I understand it the highest tax that could ever be assessed against me for a library is one mill on the dollar and that it is altogether probable that a smaller levy than one mill will rais'e all that is necessary. So the most I will ever have to pay is $3 a year. I figured up, too how much I had spent for books and magazines the past five years. Of course, I couldn't tlvnk of every thing, but I know of just one set of books that cost me $32.50. This alone woukl pay my library tax for ten years, to say nothing of all the other books and magazines I have bought, and then I couldn't have the hooks I -wanted. If we had a public library, 1 wouM be saved, at least $2., and at the same time have had the use of thousands of books whereas I have had the use of only a few. So I figure that this library tax will save me money, and I want the council to levy it just as soon as they can. J A Tax-paver Plymouth. Tnd, March 22. 1010.

WHY SALVES FAIL TO CURE ECZEMA Scientists sre now agreed that th eczema getrms are lodged not in the outer skin or epidermis, but in the inner skin. Hence, a penetrating liquid is required, not an outward salve that clog the pores. We recommend to all eczema patients the standard prescription Oil of Wintergreen as compounded in liquid form known as D. D. D. Prescripton- A tral bot tie of this D. D. D. Prescription, at only 25 cents will instantly re lieve the itch. We have sold and recommended, this remedy for years and know of wonderful cures from its use. Vrc recommend it to our patrons. Chas. C. Reynolds.
