 It's funny how people who are supposed to have sense will allow their feet to get into such a condition. Still I've tried lots of things for my feet, but as I didn't believe anything could cure them I went at it in a half-hearted way.
 II finally tried TIZ. Every body was talking about it, and every ad- vertisement I read about it seemed to have the ring of truth in it. I can say now, TIZ does work which is really hard to realize until you have tried it.

Less has been heard of the army than in former years but late reports indicate that both its work and it's income are larger now than ever before. While neglecting no part of its relief work, the Salvation Army in the United States has developed a re- markable trading business, keeping at the present time 30 men on the road selling
 goods These men do not enter regular commercial lines, but trade with army
 people. These, people are not merely the
 officers in charge of posts in various
 cities. but the volunteers who work in the
 daytime and appear in uniform Tn the
 street meetings at night in support of
 trained officers. Such run into the hum
 dreds of thousands and it Is among them
 that the trade has been developed.
 Profits from the trade go, of course to the army and its work. Sales last year amounted to $S24,000. Army officers on this side fear General Booth will not be able. at his age and nearly blind as he Is, to get here as he plans.

 olic version of the Bible was made has
 disappeared. Wonderful success has been
 made in the search for them. Just now examinations are being made In England, but libraries in Austria, Holland, Spain and France, following those in Italy, have already been searched The plan has been hit upon of photographing every page of these rare volumes and port folios and making duplicate copies so that. members of the commission and scholars who are to cooperate with them may have copies for separate and quiet study. A Bible revision made with re- markable care and with all the learning of the Catholic church brought to bear is to be the outcome.
