UNDECIDED ON WILLARD SCRAP ST. PAUL, Minn., April 24. The Minnesota safety commission yesterday voted to take under advisement the question of permitlng the proposed WMard-Fulton toxins contest in St Paul July 4. The commission did not announce when its nal decision would be made public, but other state olcials made Interesting, although conicting statements. "The fight will be held In St. Paul on the Fourth of July," said Robert Sieberlich of Minneapolis ( member of the state boxing commission. "I can not see how a state license can be granted for this fight" said Ambrose Tighe, special atorney for the state safety commission. "An out alder is not permitted to put on a boxing show in the Twin Cities, and although I understand that Col. Miller will operate through the local boxing club, I do not believe that such camouage will be allowed." Col. J. C. Millar, who argued for permission to bring the fighters here, declared the contest would not be a brutal affair and be presented figures to show that large sums of money would go to the government, the state and the war funds. Members of the anti-fight delegation took the opposite view. They held that "prize fight" money was not wanted by the state and that the contest would reflect discredit upon St. Paul and Minnesota.

The channel also was blocked by sinking concrete-laden cruisers and the batteries and munition stores on the mole were destroyed. The Bruges Canal has been used as a base by the German submarines and the blowing up of the lock, the report of which lacks official confirmation, and the blocking of the channel would destroy Zebrugge's usefulness for some time. British naval writers give varied estimates as to how long it will take the Germans to repair the damcge done, ranging from many days to many weeks and perhaps longer.

The best ball team in the world can't win a pennant unless harmony exists among the players. This essential element was lacking in the camp of the Detroit Tigers last season. It practically cheated Jennings' jungaleers out of a chance for the championship. The story goes that relations were badly strained between the manager and Ty Cobb on one side and Harry Heilman, Bobbie Veach and others on the antagonistic side. We are told that Jennings stood up for Cobb through every dispute. This incident is cited: In a game on the home lot last summer a fly ball fell between Cobb and Heilman. Jennings began "riding" Heilman. and was stopped short with this retort: "Don't blame me. Blame your assistant manager (meaning Cobb.) He called for the ball." At another time the fans were holding a celebration for Sam Crawford, and all the players crowded around the veteran at the plate when he was presented with some gift or other all of them, save Jennings and Cobb. It probably has no bearing on the Incident in question, but Crawford is no longer with the club. Not so long ago the Cleveland team, , also strong enough to make a pennant fight, was shot to pieces by discontent, with Larry Lajoie and his cohorts on one side and Joe Birming ham and his supporters on the other. It finally simmered down to President Somers' making Birmingham the manager. The team went from bad to worse, and a "bush leaguer," Lee Fohl, was placed in charge. Immediately the team picked up. Last season it was a contender. This year it is picked to finish second. Which brings us to our point. ',, Two seasons ago the Pirates under the guidance of Jimmy Callahan was the most dissatisfied club in the majors. Another "busher" was put in charge Hugo Bezdek, better known Boy Scoats Will Make House to House Canvass Boosting Liberty Drive (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, April 24. A house to house canvass by the entire membership of the Boy Scouts of America with the purpose of giving subscribers an opportunity to buy more liberty bonds, will be begun Saturday, the treasury department announced today. The work will be done by 397,208 uniformed boy scouts. President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo have written letters to the boy scouts in support of the campaign. The president will award a United States flag to one troop of scouts in each state for the largest number of individual applications for bonds, per registered scouts. Medals and war service emblems will be given to individual scouts who excel in the campaign. In the first liberty loan campaign, the boy scouts obtained 139,645 subscriptions amounting to $23,238,250 and emblems were awarded to 8,499 Bcouts. In the second loan the boy scouts had a total of 533,820 subscriptions amounting to $10,684,100. One out of every eighteen subscriptions was obtained by a boy scout. CITY BUYS LIBERTY BONDS MADISON.

as a football coach than a baseball man. It didn't take the club long to experience a change for the better, in Spirit if not position. This season finds them an entirely happy family, and while the new "busher" isn't expected to bring them home in front, indeed his chances are slim of even getting to the top of the second divisionthe cheif feature is the players are contented, harmony exists and you can bet they will make every game a real battle, whether it comes their way or not. The difference between harmony and discord is often the difference between first place and last. The Spokane club of the Pacific Coast league claims to be proportionately the most patriotic club in baseball. The club finished the. 1917 race with fourteen players. It opened the with fourteen players. It opened the new season with exactly half of these men in service, namely, Pitchers Zamloch, Bloomfield, Larkin and Webb, Third Baseman McGinnis, Second Baseman Fitzsimmons and Catcher Schroeder. Moreover, the club expects to lose several more in the subsequent draft calls the coming season wiH surely bring forth.

CONSTANT ITCHING ALMOST UNBEARABLE. Only those afflicted with Eczema, with its terrifying irrita tion and ceaseless itching know what constant torture this disease can cause. The disease appears in different ways, sometimes with a reddening and irritation of the skin, sometimes in the form of blisters. Other cases of Eczema take the form of a dry, scaly condition of the skin that cracks and peels. But no matter in what form the disease appears, it is a source of constant fiery irritation that is well-nigh unbearable: Eczema is very often considered a skin disease. This is a natural mistake, t as it attacks the skin and it is through the skin that it causes so much discomfort and suffering. But the real seat of the disease is the blood. The germs qf Eczema are in the blood, and the irritated and diseased condition of the skin is the result of the germs trying to break out of the system. Beyond the use of anti septics to promote cleanliness, there is no local treatment that will accomplish a permanent cure of this disease. And those who have been relying altogether upon salves, soaps, ointments and other local applications to the skin will find that no permanent good will come from such treatment by itself. Read how Basil M. Lanneau. who resides on Confederate Avenue, in Atlanta, Ga., found relief from this terrifying disease, after all local treatment had failed. He writes: QUALITY PLUS HOSPITALITY TODAY and

FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH It is not a myth, but a reality and women may find it In perfect functional health. Women who want to grow old gracefully should guard against all organic weakness and derangements, and at the first symptom of such conditions resort to Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, nature's own root and herb remedy, to restore health. For three generations women of America have depended upon this successful remedy and have found no other medicine to equal it Adv. "I sufferefl with a most agrravated case of Eczema, tb itching: being: so severe that I could not sleep. I used thirteen pounds of ointment, tried nearly every skin remedy, besides being- treated by two skin specialists. I am nowconvinced that Eciema is nothing; but a blood trouble, for after takingseveral bottles of S. S. S-. I am entirely cured." Years of untold suffering can be avoided if the real cause of a disease can be definitely determined, and the proper method of treatment employed. Hence those afflicted with Eczema will continue to suffer as long as they consider the disease a condition of the skin, and rely solely upon local applications of salves, ointments and similar remedies. If you really want to be cured you must realize that the disease is in the blood, and you can expect relief only from treatment that is directed toward cleansing the blood of the disease germs. This is why S. S. S. is so successful in the treatment of Eczema and all other diseases of the blood; because it acts as an antidote to any impurity that finds lodgment in the blood. Being purely vegetable and guaranteed not to contain a particle of mineral substance, it is an exceptionally fine tonic, and besides eliminating from the blood all traces of impurity, it builds up and strengthens the entire system at the same time. We invite everyone afflicted with Eczema, or other blood or skin disease, to write our medical department for advice, which is gladly given without charge. Full instructions as to how to treat your own individual case will be gladly furnished by our chief medical adviser, who is ah expert on these diseases.
