NEW SKIN DISCOVERY Stops Itching Immediately, Soothes| " and Comforts the Little Ones. A demonstration of the efficacy and entire harmlessness of poslam, the new skin discovery, is afforded when it is applied to the tender skin of in- fants who are tortured with rashes, chafings, scaly aggravations, Its effect is soothing, the itching stops at gnce, the skin heals and is quickly “estored to normal condition. In the various forms of skin troubles in both infants and adults, poslam produces beneficial results from the first application. Hczema, acne, herpes, rash, tetter, etc, yield readily to jts remarkable curative properties. Occasional applications will quickly banish pimples, blotches and complex- fon blemishes 'and will relieve and o itching feet, scaly scalp, humors, c. Poslam can be had for fifty-cents at eny reliable druggist’s, particularly Lee & Osgood’s and Smith’s Drug Store in Norwich, Larue’s in Putnam, Woodward’s in Danielson and Chese- bro's in Willimantic, who make a spe- clalty of it.

Last summer I went fishing in Cut-Off lake, north of Omaha, at one time a part of the Missouri river. I hauled up a big trout. - How that trout got in Cut-Off lake is a mystery, because trout are scarce in that whole section of the country. I knew the only way to make my friends believe me when I told them I caught the trout in the lake was to take it home alive 1 tied a string to the trout's tail and fastened it to a seat in the boat. Then with my hat I dipped up enough water to half fill the boat, and, taking off my clothes, jumped overboard and pushed the boat ashore. “Just as I had finished dressing a milk wagon came by and for a couple of dollars the driver consented to help me. We filled -the cans with water and then stood the trout on his tail in one of them. As we drove hom I changed the trout from can to can to |keep him in fresh water. ‘At home my wife had the bathtub filled with water and we dumped the trout into the tub. We kept that fish in our bathtub until a week ago, wheu ! the neighbors began to kick becausc we had to go_to their houses every time either one' of us wanted a bath. | So we decided to ship_the fish to friend of mine here in New York. Would you believe it? My wife cried when I sent that trout away. | You see, it had become so tame it vould eat out of her hand. Now it on account of this habit of his | that all our subsequent trouble came bout and I had to come east. ust half an hour before I put the {fish in the tank to ship it away my wife went to the bathroom to bid the sh goodby. In her grief she forgot to take it any bread and when she put her hand in the tub to pat it on the head the trout snapped at her hand.
