HEAL YOUR SKIN
Broken Out Skin and Itching
Eczema Helped Over Night
For unsightly skin eruptions, rush
or blotches on face, neck, arms ot
body, you do not have to wait for
relief from torture or embarrass
ment, declares a noted skin special
ist. Apply a little Mentho-Sulphur
and improvement shows next day.
Because of its germ destroying
properties, nothing has ever been
found to take the place of this sul
phur preparation. The moment you
apply it healing begins. Only those
who have had unsightly skin
troubles can know the delight this
Mentho-Sulphur brings. Even fiery
itching eczema is dried right up.

policy of the Alaska Railroad re- ,
mained unchanged during the year.!
This policy calls for the completion
of the railroad anti llie purchase of
modern equipment at an estimated
cost of $11,878,781. With the ex
penditure of this sum the cost of
operation and maintenance, which I
now stands at a high figure, will be i
reduced to a normal outlay annually.
Recause appropriations so far made •
have provided only $1,865,000, inchol-1
ing $500,600 available May 10, 1326.1

was 32,553i an increase of 4.127 tons
The total commercial tonnage hauled
over l he road for 1326 was 65,036 or
a gain of 11,171 tons. The number
of revenue passengers transported
over the road was 57,567 in 1326, an |
increase of 3,267 over 1325. The 11
crease in tonnage was due to increas
ed shipment of mining machinery
and supplies for mining operations
into Alaska. There was also a gen
eral increase in shipments of all
kinds of commodities.
