R. & N. com pany, the former titles held by divis ion officials, such as division engin eer, etc., have been abolished and from now on all of those officials will be classed as assistant superinten dents. As a result of the rule Just pro mulgated the following titles have been done away with: master me chanic, division engineer, chief dis patcher and traveling engineer. In stead there will be seven assistant superintendents on the Oregon di vision and they will be as follows: J. D. Matheson, J. T. langley. A. F. Stotler, A. Buckley, W. E. Borden, J. F. Corbett and J. C. Shea. Instructions are also given that correspondence intended for any of the departments managed , by any of the above should be addressed siinpiy to "assistant superintendent" the designation of a particular assistant superintendent to handle specified classes of correspondence and tele grams being a matter for the super intendent's office. In explanation of the change in ti tular ' designations the order Issued has the following: "The modifications of pre-existing organization and methods herein or dered have been carefully worked out to expedite the company's busi ness by the reduction and simplifica tion of correspondence and records. It is expected and believed that of ficials an demployes will insure a successful outcome by lending their usual intelligent co-operation and support."

Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum, etc., are troubles which affect .he skin, their source b far deeper than the outsida cuticle. These aJections ire causod by irritating humors, or uratio acid in the blood. Such lmnurities inflame and irritate the delicate net-work of fibrous tbsue which lies Just beneath the s irfaco of the outer skin, and the infiim natory discharge thu3 produced is forcad out through the pores and gUnis, and is continually kept up while tlie blood remains infected. This exudation causes the form itlon of smiles and crusts so often soen in Eczemm, and when thev arc scratched oflf the flrsh is left raw and more susceptible to other infection It can very readily ba seen then that to produce a cure the circulation must -e puriflcd .md cloanaad. This S. S. S. will do. It goes down to the very otton, removes til humors and impurities, neutralizes the excessive acido f the srstnm nnd in this wy removes the cause of disease. Local applice. ions can only sootlio tho Irritation and assist in keeping the skin clean- the--ever produce a cure because such treatment does not roach the blood. 3.S.S. restores to the thin, acrid blood all its lost properties, makes iv ro5Vn?.vrlch nd,enabo,9,it no"ristt th skin and keep it soft, smooth ind healthy.
