Eczema Is Conquered
Greasy salves and ointmertts should
not be applied if good clear skin is
wanted From any druggist for 25c or
$1.00 for extra large size, get a bottle
of zemo. When applied as directed, it
effectively removes eczema, quickly
stops itching, and heals skin troubles,
also sores, burns, wounds and chafing.
It penetrates, cleanses and soothes.
Zemo is a clean, dependable and inex-
pensive, penetrating, antiseptic liquid.
Try it, as we believe nothing you have
ever used is as effective and satisfying.

CUSTARD PIE COMEDY.

: through the
Its Vogue In ths Movies Due to Our
Primitive Sense of Humor.
After the comic “pursuit” picture
movie directors were at their wlta' end
fintil the most famous impresario of
knockabout fun invented the motif of
the custard pie. A custard pie bom-
bardment has two very strong elements
of humor concealed iu Its action. One
Is surprise, and the other is messlnesa
There are lots of nice jjeopl^who think
It is vulgar and of
such elemental b
something fundam<
lug a body's facdjnoj

if you do not believe this try it some
day on your neighbor when he pushes
his bead over the fence to aay good
morning or to borrow tbq lawn mower.
Hit him full on, butter side out, with
a custard pie aud see whether ,tbe re-
sult la not funny or tragic. A hair of-
ten divides the two. If you make this
experiment you will learn that only a
complete bullseye Is funny. If the pie
should hit on the edge or only partial-
ly break, the joke is'held in suspense
and spoiled, hut if you “moon him” I
assure you the neighbors for miles
round will all laugh. My, the number
of custard pies that we have wasted
while one of the comedians perfected
his technic and aim! A good custard
pie thrower Is invaluable in the comics.
It Is queer that the pie must be custard.
This same director also intended the
comedy police, wild have bad more
trouble with the real police than any
actors on $he serdfen. The humor of
the wild exploits bf these volatile offi-
cers of jAhe" hWV bHitWf'up8n two

In the American Magazine a writer,
giving some Words of advice to the
many aspiring young men throughout
the country who feel the lure of the
great cities aud who are consumed
with a desire to. try their fortunes
(herein, says:
“An old friend called to ask my ad-
vice the other day. He came to New
York from a little Indiana town. He
has a wife and four children—aud a
poor Job.
. “As I talked with him I kept pietur-
I ing him where he belongs—hack in the
> old home town. If be had stayed there
he might have worked into a $1,000 or
$1,200 job, which would have been suf-
ficient to satisfy all his needs and
most of his wants. He could have had
a garden, a yard, a savings bank ac-
count and a membership in the local
lodge. Evenings he could have sat on
his porch and held converse with ills
neighbors.
"On the Fourth of July he could have
been ‘some punkins’ at the nelghtior-
hood picnic. He might have beeoifie a
village councilman, and when the fall
campaign arrived he could have been
on the committee to welcome the con-
gressman when that great personage
canto to town in search of votes. Iu
other words, he might have had a real
jdnee in the community.
“Now. what does he get in exchange
for the $1,000 or $1,200 that he eurns
in New York? Weil, 1 suppose he gets
a measly little flat with dark bedrooms,
a fine assortment of cheap lunches, two
chances daily to hang by , his eyelids
in the subway, a great fund of loneli-
ness and a woebegone feeling of use-
lessness.
“That is the trouble with these whal-
ing big cities like New York and Chi-
cago. They are nil right for men of
