HOW RESINOL CURED
ITCHING SKIN TORMENT
Baltimore, Md„ May 23, 1914: “ My
limbs from knee to ankle were com­
pletely covered with eczema for a
year.
It commenced with several
small water pimples, which burst
when I scratched them, until they de­
veloped into sores, and oozed a yellow­
ish fluid. I hated to go in company.
It itched and burned so badly. I had
no rest at night. I tried a good many
remedies for eczema, both liquid and
salve, but they did me no good, only
made the skin more rough and scaly.
I learned of resinol ointment and res-
inol soap and tried (hem, and was re­
lieved of the severe itching and burn­
ing A T ONCE, and after a month’s
■teady use was completely cured.”
(Signed) T. S. Lewis, 1821 Summit St.
Resinol soap and resinol ointment are
sold by all druggists.— Adv.

ham stopped rocking to stare hard at
his resourceful wife, an involuntary

With increased firmness, she repeated,
"Jest bewtiful!" whereupon Abe, scent­
ing self-sacrifice on his wife's part, sat
up straight and snapped, "Haow so,

Angy lifted her knotted old hand and
smoothed back the hair from her
brow; for through all the struggling
years she had kept a certain, not un­
pleasing, girlish pride In her personal
appearance.
Abraham had risen with creaks of
his rheumatic joints, and was now
walking up and down the room, his
feet lifted slowly and painfully with
every step, yet still hie blue eyes flash­
ing with the Are of indignant protest.

The Tea Table.
Angeline'e slender, wiry form and
»mall, glosBy gray head bent over the
squat brown teapot as she shook out
the last bit of leaf from the canister.
The canister was no longer hers, nei­
ther the teapot, nor even the battered
old pewter spoon with which she
tapped the bottom of the tin to dis­
lodge the last flicker of tea-leaf dust.
The three had been sold at auction
that day In response to the auction­
eer’s inquiry, "What am I bid for the
lot?"
Nothing iu the familiar old kitchen
was hers, Angeline reflected, except
Abraham, her aged husband, who was
taking his last gentle ride In the old
rocking chair— the old armchair with
painted roses blooming as brilliantly
across its back as they had bloomed
when the chair was first purchased
forty years ago.
Those roses had
come to be a source of perpetual won­
der to the old wife, an ever-present ex­
ample.
Neither time nor stress could wilt
them a single leaf. When Abe took
the first mortgage on the house In
order to Invest in an indefinitely locat­
ed Mexican gold mine, the melodeon
dropped one of Its keys, but the roses
nodded on with the same old sunny
hope; when Abe had to take the sec­
ond mortgage and Tenafly Gold be­
came a forbidden topic of conversa­
tion, the minute hand fell off the par­
lor clock, but the flowers on the back
of the old chair blossomed on none
the lese serenely.
The soil grew more and more bar­
ren as the years went by; but still the
roses had kept fresh and young, so
why, argued Angy, should not she? If
old age and the pinch of poverty had
failed to conquer their valiant spirit,
why should she listen to the croak­
ing tale? If they bloomed on with the
same crimson flaunt of color, though
the rockers beneath them had grown
warped and the body of the chair
creaked and groaned every time one
ventured to sit in it, why should she
not ignore the stiffness which the
years seemed to bring to her Joints,
the complaints which her body threat­
ened every now and again to utter,
and fare on herself, a hardy perennial
bravely facing life’s winter-time?
Even this dreaded day had not tak­
en one fraction of a shade from the
glory of the roses, as Angeline could
see In the bud at one side of Abra­
ham’s head and the full-blown flower
below hie right ear; so why should
she droop because the sale of her
household goods had been somewhat
disappointing?
Somewhat?
