CUItES ECZEMA' QUICKLY arew Drug, Poslam, Wow Obtainable In BmaU Quantities. ,- Since Its discovery one year ago the new drug, poslam. " has successfully Tured thousands of chrohlo cases . of eczema and other distressing skin af flictions. Heretofore poslam has been dispensed solely ; for ' the benefit of eczema patients In large Jars sufficient for a ' month's ' treatment. This waa found to be an Inconvenience to many thousands . who use it for minor skin troubles, such as pimples, blackheads, herpes, acne, scaly scalp, complexion blemishes, itching feet, piles, etc., which require but a small quantity to cure, lo overcome this, and in response to urgent appeals, the dispensers of. poslam have been obliged to adopt, in addition to the regular two-dollar package, .a special fifty-cent slxe, which in future may be found on sale at the Sktdmore Drug Co. and other leading drug; stores in Port land, or may be ordered direct from the Emergency laboratories, No. ZS West 85th street. New York City. ; In all eczema cases poslam stops itching with first application, and proceeds to heal immediately; chronic cases being cured in two weeks. ' In less serious skin troubles, results are seen after an over; night application. Samples for experimental purposes may still be had, - free of charge, by writing to. the laboratories for them.

"supply, cooperative warehouse in eastern markets and the tariff were topics for discussion during the day. On some of these drastic reso lutions were adopted. j - The convention put itself on record as favoring a bounty on the coyote, paid by the state. It may be that the associa tion will pay half of the bounty on the pests killed In sheep localities. . Dr. Lytle, federal Inspector, was In structed to refute the statement that coyotes killed the rabbits and that al falfa growers were not In favor of the bounty Jaw.- Dr. Lytle said - that the rabbits of eastern Oregon had been done away with by disease, that the coyote killed more sheep and thus did more harm than the rabbit by Its feeding upon the. alfalfa fields. : - Resolutions were adopted In favor of .the retention of the tariff schedule as It now stands on raw wool, and to urge every senator and representative from woof-producing states to .work lo . that end while In congress. . .

Each member costs at least J1.600 an nually and the. 80 therefore require a minimum fund Of $120,000. .: With its piesent resources the party can continue its existing strength for about one more year: If more is not forthcoming-, from America at the end of that time,- It must reduce Its repre sentation by at least half.
