' Eczema Is called a tkln disease be cause the tiny little germi which cause the disease set up their colony en aome portion of the skin's surface, and here ipread their irritation that oon begins to burn like flames of fire. There are other forms of so-called diseases of skin, such as tetter, boils, pimples, acne, erysipelas, scaly erup tions, blotches and rough irritations, that are a source of much pain and annoyance. And, while these disorders are gen erally referred to as skin diseases, they are really traceable to a disor dered condition of'the blood, and they are never experienced by anyone whose blood is free from impurities. If you are a victim of any form of these painful and irritating disorders of the skin, causing, as they do, such constant annoyance, you canont ex pect any real benefit from the local treatment so generally used, such as lotions, ointments, salves, etc. You are simply postponing a cure!

You must reach the cause of the dis order, the actual source of the pain, before you can hope to stop the pain itself. The cause of all of these so called skin diseases is in the blood, and you cannot reach the blood by external remedies applied to the sur face. Give your blood a thorough cleans, ing with S. S. 8., the great old blood purifier, and you in this way elimi nate all impurities which cause skin diseases and other derangements, This is the logical treatment, and it has proven its great worth in hun dreds of cases because it is a purely vegetable remedy and cleanses the blood of all foreign substances, and fills tho veins with a fresh supply of rich, red and vigorous blood.

RAILROADS CHARGE (Continued from page one) he learned that railroad representatives whose names could not be ascertained were in tho room. "We have come here to lay our cards on tho table," Garretson told the commission ''and we'do not intend to deal with a second set of employers nor do we intend to disarm themselves if they are to participate. "We do not intend to take tho posi tion of discussing these matters with our former employers." Chairman Lane of the commission tried to reassure Garretson that the roads were under government control and that the commission wjs seeking from employers information that would enable them to arrive at 'just conclusions. Lee, of the trainmen, broke in that the former railroad directors did not want to see government operation sue' cessful. ' riease exenso me for being suspic ions," Lee said, "but I have been deal' ing with theso men for half a centurv, The old management does not want government operation to be successful I have facts to prove that experienced men are not permitted to operate as their training dictates. lo vou think tho public will lot tho railroads go back to tho old system if government management proves efficient? That is why I want to see the government make a success of government oper ation." Judge Covington of tho commission said the railroad representatives were present at the invitation of the com mission. ' 'These gentlemen are here by our express invitation to supplement and not antagonize information you sup ply," he told Iiee. "This cannot be an ex-parte proceooing; wo are en titled to get information from both sides." After Garretson finished his testi mony, Lee presented a statement in support of his claims that the increased cost of living had made it Impossible lo maintain standards of living on the basis of 1913 wage scale, which is still in effect. " We understand the administration wanted exisfing standards of living maintained and for that reason we be lieve we would be justified in asking wage increase covering the 48 percent increase of the cost of living, but in stead we are asking only increases ranging from 20 to 40 percent of this increase of living cost." Leo declared the trainmen were patriotically backing up the govern meat and out of loO.OOO employes, 10 percent of which are in Canada, 5,000 have joined the colors. J Win.

These pictures were taken by the ritieh government and sent to C. S. Greaves of Portland, who loaned them to the Red Cress Shop for exhibition.

Dyer 'a, insurance agency and deals with the matter of soldiers' insurance. It is of sufficient public, in terest to warrant publication. To the Representatives of the Trav elers Insurance Company: A letter by the Honorable Wm. G. MeAdoo, secretary of the treasury, an nounces the appointment of a committee of Insurance Executives to direct a cam paign to place the government insur ance with all enlisted men -and commis sioned officers of the army and navy and members of the army and navy Nurse Corps. The chairman of the committee is our vice president, Mr. John L. May, who writes me from Washington sug gesting that every 'man in our organ ization can do effective work for the cause by arousing the families of our fighting forces to the importance of urging the soldiers and sailors related to them to avail themselves of the max imum protection offered by the govern ment,, and by bringing it to the atten tion of the men still at home waiting the call to service, and to men who are on furlough. The most pressing part of this duty is to call attention to the fact that the application, for this in surance must be made before February 12, 1918. I is gratifying to realize the valuable work accomplished by you in the Lib erty Loan subscriptions and what you are now doing in the Thrift campaign. These, with the. assistance given to the Red Cross and the Y. M. C. A. make a record of honorable service for the com pany and its representatives. Your abil ity and your experience give you an op portunity now to render further service to our soldiers and sailors and their families. This insurance can be taken amounts from $1,000 to $10,000 and eovers death and total disability. The premium cnargea, as you are awure, i tfLsredaa,l tZnTtZl' ministration and the cost of the excess ( war mortality.

The best tection offered by tne government. More than three billions of insurance has already been taken, but this total, gTeat as it is, is but a small part of the amount that should be written. It should be impressed upon the men and their dependents that the so-called "Automatic Insurance" furnished by tho government t" February 12, 1918, is merely partial and limited protection. I am confident that The Travelers representatives, who are so well equip ped, will enter upon this service most enthusiastically to the end that all of our soldiers and sailors and the members of the army and navy nurse corps may enjoy the full war insurance protection proffered by the government. Sincerely, L. F. BUTLER, President.
