ROUGH RED FACE NOW SMOOTH After One Week Resinol Effected the Change Embarrassed, humfliated, and in painful misery, Rose C. Wiggins, of Hern-don, was almost driven to distraction by the disease which caused her Toush and red. Wishing, naturally, to appear attractive, she tried everything.

Nothing did much good until she tried Resinol. Here is what she says: "Before iising your remedies I was troubled with a skin disease, which caused my face to become very rough and red at times. After using Resinol fcoap and Ointment one week, I could notice great improvement, and by the time I had used one cake of the Soap and one jar ot the Ointment, my skin was perfectly smooth and soft. I heartily recommend the Resinol preparation for all skin diseases." Resinol Ointment is the rreatest remedy for skin disease known to modern science. Its marvelous curative properties in long standing cases of aggravated eruptive disease, sores, pimples, etc have surprised those who have used it!

A decision handed down by the State Supreme Court yesterday affirming the Berks Court, in the case of Edward C. Nolan agitinst the city of Reading, decides that the city is liable for the deficit of in the cost of construction of the city's house sewer system which has already cost more than a million of dollars and the problem of how to make good will be one that will confront City Councils in the near future. The deficit was one of the discoveries made by the present Republican administration in a public investigation, shortly after gaining control of the city administration several years ago. The cost of the house sewer system was levied against the property owners in the various districts according to the per foot front system and the mistake was made that the assessments were not made high enough to cover the cost of the bonds that had been issued to cover the cost of the improvement. The assessments were paid by the property owners, in semi-annual installments over a period of 2V years.

After all the assessments had been collected, it was found that there were still worth of bonds outstanding for which no provision had been made. After all the funds had been exhausted, the city treasurer discontinued further payments of principal or interest on the hr.rids. While there was never doubt as to the city's liability, yet in order that it might be lully estaDiisneu, xu-ward C. Nolan, as the holder of two of the bonds on which payment had been refused, entered a friendly suit against the city with the present result. in calculating me cur-t ui mc cc.cio, i in order to make it as email as yjossible against the property owners, tne JJemo-cratic administration, under whose management they were built, failed to figure in the cost of street intersections, or of trunk lines greater in width than 10 inches for which the property owners were not Iiable; or for the long side of corner properties for which the city ai.o had to pay.

Neither was the expensive clerical assistance and the pay of hundred of inspectors charged against the work. All this resulted in the enormous deficit. Norristown Property Sold facial to The Inquirer. NORRISTOWN. March 19.

He waa last at home "Pull out one gray hair and a dozen will take its place" is an old saying, which, is to a great extent, true, if no steps are taken to stop the cause.

When gray hairs appear it is a sign that Nature needs assistance. It is Nature's call for help. Gray hair, dull, lifeless hair, or hair that is falling out, is not necessarily a sign of advancing age, for there are thousands of elderly people with perfect heads of hair without a Bingle streak of gray. When gray hairs come, or when the hair seems to be lifeless or dead, some good, reliable hair-restoring treatment should be resorted to at once. Specialists say that one of the best preparations to use is the old-fashioned "sage tea" which our grandparents used.

The best preparation of this kind is Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy, a preparation of domestic sage and sulphur, scientifically compounded with later discovered hair tonics and stimulants, the whole mixture being carefully balanced and tested by experts. Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur is clean and wholesome and perfectly harmless. It refreshes dry, parched hair, removes dandruff and gradually restores faded ot gray hair to its natural color. Don't delay another minute. Start using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at once and see what a difference a few days' treatment will make in your hair.

This preparation is offered to the pub-I lie at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all druggista..
