It began on my leg and was most aggravating; the more I scratched it, the more it itched. Finally a number of tiny pimples formed and soon spread all over my body. It became so bad that I did not know what to do about it and was going to consult a physician when a friend of mine suggested that I try Resinol Ointment. I bought a jar the next day and was delighted with the relief I obtained after the first application. A few more treatments and the itch was entirely gone.

I have also used Resinol Soap and Ointment for blackheads and pimples and it helped wonderfully. I cannot praise Resinol enough for all the good it has done me." (Signed) Celia Stoffel, Star Route.

Denies Klan Deal The Indiana senator not only denied that the klan was supporting him, but also asserted that testimony given the committee at Chicago that William F. Zumbrunn, counsel for the klan, sought to influence him in the contest over the seat held by Senator Mayfield, Democratic, Texas, was without foundation.
