beg leave to report as given below S. P. SPALDING, C. W. GIBSON, CHALMERS McPHERSON, "In grateful recognition of the fact that our beloved brother and sister, Mr.

and Mrs. Aaron Trippet, on Saturday, February 29th, 1908, marked the sixtieth anniversary of their marriage, we, their fellow servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, memmembers of the Main Street Christian church of Waxahachie, Texas, accept this as a most appropriate occasion upon which to give a slight expression of our esteem for them. We thank our Heavenly Father that He has spared them through all these years to be a blessing to each other and His world. "As members -of our congregation, from the day of its organization to the present, they have been faithful, always ready for every good work. As friends they never disappointed us.

they have always stood high above all reproach, and have been appreciated the most by those who knew them the best. Twenty-eight members of their family have, at different times, been members of our congregation, and others of them members of the body of Christ at other points. "When the sky has been free from clouds, over the heads of our workers, these two christians have rejoiced with us with the greatest of joy. When dark days have come to us and severe ordeals were ours never deserted, never manifest! ed a spirit ff disruption, never alI lowed one to suspect that they were discouraged; but bravely, loyally I pressed forward to a brighter day. i "We commend their spirit, their faith, their faithfulness to ourselves and to others, and pray that our father's blessings may contfnue to abide upon them, and that His loving hand may guide them tci His home of eternal life and love."

Itching, Burning Skin Disease Routed Without Vse of Injurious Great inventors often have been praised for surrendering the secrets of their discoveries. Practically the same thing hapened in the medical world in the case of Dr. Decatur D. Dennis, the eminent skin specialist of Chicago. Dr.

Dennis, in his own office practice, discovered that pure vegetable oil of wintergreen, properly mixed with other simple remedies was practically a sure specific for eczema, psoriasis, barber-'s itch, salt rheum, and other itching skin diseases. But the oil of wintergreen alone was found! ineffective. It required other mild ingredients such as glycerine -nd thyniol compounded with the wintergreen to produce the real eczema cure. This compounded D. D.

D. Prescription positively takes away the itch at instant it is applied to the skin. This vegetable liquid does away with deleterious drugs so long used in an attempt to doctor the blood, whereas modern science has determined that eczema is first and all the time a skin disease.
