What to Do for Eczema
Greasy salves and ointments should
not he applied if good clear skin is
wanted. From any druggist for 25c or j
$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.

was like a miracle to me." A lady who
used it says: "The atmosphere seemed
hazy with or without glasses, but after
using this prescription for fifteen days
everything seems clear. I can even read
fine print without glasses." It is be
lieved that thousands who wear glasses
can now discard them in a reasonable
time and multitudes more will bo able
