ECZEMA Hands Were Raw Would Crack and Bleed Eczema or Salt Rheum, as it is commonly called, is one of the most agonizing of skin diseases. The in- tense burning, itching and smarting, especially at night or when exposed to heat, are almost unbearable and relief is gladly welcomed. The pre-eminent success which Burdock Blood Bitters has met with in permanently remov- ing a disease of such severity is due to its wonderful blood cleansing and purifying properties. Mrs. M. R. Willard, Dudswell Jct., Que., writes:--' For about three years I had eczema, in a very bad form, on my hands. They were all raw and would crack and bleed so that I could not do my housework. I tried everything I could think of without any results. At last I got a bottle of Burdock Blood Bitters, and when I had it about all taken I could see it was helping me; by the time 1 had taken five bottles my hands were all well again and I have not been bothered since. I cannot praise Burdock Blood Bitters en- ough." | Manufactured only by The T. Mil- burn Co., Limited, Toronto, Ont.

This sulphur preparation, made into a pleasant cold cream, gives such a quick re- lief, even to flery eczema, that noth- ing has ever been found to take its place. > Because of its germa destroying properties, it quickly subdues the itching, cools the {irritation and heals the eczema right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin in place of ugly eruptions, rash, pimples or rough- ness.

Those who figure out the taxes of a country or a province always have to reckon with that last forkful of straw that, if it does not break the camel's back, at least makes Mim an inefficient worker. There are taxes that are good taxes up to a certain paint; that provide revemue and provide it with the minimum of ef- fort and of unfairness. And beyond that point they defeat their own pur- poses. Witness the cigarette taxes. At $G a thousand cigareties were heavi- ly taxed, but Canadians smoked nearly 2,500,000,000 a year. The tax was increased last year to $7.50 a thousand and smokers turned to pipes and to rolling their own. Cig- arette consumption dropped by about half a billion a year and the govern- ment suffered a net loss in revenue of about $2,000,000. The higher tax actually provides a lower revenue.-- Toronto Financial Post.

DISTRIBUTION OF SEEDS To the Children of Frontenac For School Fair Compe- tition. A. W. Sirett, the local representa- tive of the Ontario department of agriculture, has been very busy dur- ing the week distributing seeds furn- ished b} the department for school fair work. On Tuesday, Mr. Siret: visited all of the schools in the township of Kingston, and on Wed- nesday he went to the Pittsburg schools. It is his intention to pay a visit to all the schools in Fronte- nac. There are about ome hundred and twenty-five schools in the county where the children secure seeds from the agriculture department. Last season about sixteen hundred ohil- dren entered in the school fair com- petition and the results were very satisfactory. This year the agriculture depart- ment has the following seeds from which the children may select any two kinds: Oats, barley, wheat, po- tatoes (early), potatoes (late). man- gels, turnips, sweet corn, field corn, beets, carrots, onions, asters, zinnia and calendula. A setting of barred rock eggs is furnished on the pay- ment of sixty-five cents. The chfl- fren are allowed more than one set- ting. Some of the rules and regulations of the competition are as follows: Each pupil may choose any two of the above classes but no more. Ten puplis in each school (or room, in school of more than one room) may have flowers provided they also have a plot or setting of eggs.
