Blease has this one redeeming point at any rate. He is willing to serve the masses of the people-those who need his help most. My grandmother used to say, "Take care of the dimes and the dollars will take care of them selves." So it is with our government, if it takes care of the poor the rich can take care of themselves. I again ask the question "What is Smith do ing to help the southern cotton grow ers?" The national government loans mon ey to these southern banks at 3 per cent and look -what the fanmers have to do to borrow it from them. Help Ing the people indeed! It is helping only those who do not need h)elp. Another point: Bleaseism has al ways been open and above board. 1Hv oi your nuch praised Jennings admit ted that he admired that principle in Blease, for 1he always knows where Blease stands. I am told that last spring in the county convention the Bleasclies called for an open ballot while the anties Contended for a pri vate ballot. You call rest assured Aunt Kate that you wvill never be bush whacked by a Hlleaseite. For this same reason it Is quite clear that Ifclntosh Was not, shot. by a illeaseite last 81111 m'er in Columbia. And right now, while I think of it, I wIshi to remind Aunt Kate that Blease and his supporters are co workers, and not coat-tail swingers any more than the anties are. I pity the poor unll fortiutnate men who failed to cast their aloilt in their own interest wiei they had the oppor tunity to do so. .Some are (evidently so st pr'omely happy over having gained their point that they are utterly oblivious to the real condition of their surroundings. That( to my mind) Is where the real pathos lies. And yet, perhaps "Where ignorance is bliss. 'tis folly to be wise." And nov I bid Aunt Kate "Adleu." "Farmer's Wife.

F. lawley, 3646 Chestnut St., Philadelphia, writes: "Some mon-ths ago my attention was called to EX-ZEMA-FO, claimed to be a specific for eczema. The remedy was highly lauded by an eminent jurist, who obtained complete relief from its use. I am somewhat loath to employ or recommend secret or proprietary medicines or lotions not knowing their compouid: but oil investigating I was convinced of its harmlessiess and em ployed it in some dozen or more cases with perfect satisfaction. A strange thing occurred during my observa tions,%'viz.: A member of my4 own family was suddenly afflicted with general eczema. I used E)C.ZEMA FO freely with the satisfaction of procuring both lprompt ad lasting re lief. My senst of /edical ethics would prevent ine tendering you this testimonial t my feeling of grat'efulness in aving obtained both the product and necessary informa tion from you, may perhaps justify my sending you this communication. You are entitled to this." So confi dent are we that EX-ZEMA-FO will relieve any case of eczema or other skin trouble that we agree to refund the purchase price if results are not satisfactory. 50 cents and $1.00.
