ECZEMA LODGES IN THE SKIN Not a Blood Disease—Cured by Oil of Wintergreen Compound. For many years eczema was sup posed to be a bkood disease and was erroneously treated as such, but now the best authorities agree that ec zema is only a skin disease and must be cured through the skin. The emi nent skin specialist, Dr. D. D. Dennis, first discovered the eczema germ and his discovery was quickly taken up in both Germany and France. To kill the eczema germ and at the j same time heal the skin, Dr. Dennis compounded oil of wintergreen, thy mol, glycerine, etc. The remedy is a liquid, not a mere salve, hence it sinks right into the pores of the skin. Washing with this oil of wintergreen compound seems to take the itch' away at once; soon the scales dropj away and the disease disappears, j The prescription has now been used; so long as to have proven its abso lute merit and we do not hesitate j to express our confidence in D. D. D. prescription. Wenatchee Drug Co. Mr. and Mrs. George H. Ellis re turned yesterday from three months spent in eSattle.
