Heretofore, nothing has been said In these column a -about poslam. a new ekln discovery. In connection with Its use after shaving. Its publicity, and- sales have been confined almost exclusively to Its remarkable properties as an eczema cure; It stops the Itching at once and cures the worst cases In a few days. While tne application of poslam after shaving Is one of Its minor uses, such as for the complexion, shavers will find It a revelation, as it does for abrasions, roughness, and severe scrapings what it does for all manner of skin difficulties heals and cures in a few hours.

It is the only article possessing real antiseptic and curative value that haa ever been exploited for this purpose, and will soothe and tone up the skin as no toilet preparation could possibly do. Poslam can be had for fifty cents at any reliable druggist's particularly Jacobs' Pharmacy, who make a specialty of it.

Here the visitors made a desperate stand and for the first time made more consistent gains, carrying the ball down tit field within, striking distance of Marions goal where the orange and black line stiffened and again Marion took the ball and started to march up the field when time was called. The final score was 6 to 0 and Marion closed its most brilliant football season without having her goal line crossed by any opponent. For the visitors MacDonald was the wholes strength of the team.

His tackling, line plunges, and end runs gave them their chief gains. For Marion the maohine-llke work of the entire team was the noteworthy feature. Heath, Flnnell and Graves again and again made long end runs of ten, fifteen and twenty yards and brought the cheering crowds to their feet. Captain Savage played a magnificent game In the line for Marion, and Manning at center was a tower of strength. Indeed all men on the team won distinction by the harmony of their work.
