Say goodbye to your corns the
very frat time you use TIZ- You Will
never know you have a corn, bunion
or callous, or sweaty tired, swollen,
aching feet any more. It's just wonder
full the way the pain vanishes. Rub
the corn-hammer 1t with your fist
IL you wisi-no more pain after T1Z
than IL there never had been a blem-
ish on your feet. Doesn't that sound
good to you? Doesn't it? Then read
this
1.-THE corns on either Of my toes were
as large as the tablets you make to
cure them. Today there is no sign OF
corns on either foot and no soreness.
It's an up-tO-date Godsend.-SaDl. A.
Hoover, Progress, n. c.
Just use TIZ- It's not like anything
else for the purpose you ever heard Of.
It's the only foot remedy ever made

remedies merely clog up the pores
TTZ cleans them out and keeps them
clean. It works right of. You will
feel better the very first time it's used.
Use it week and you can forget you

DooIN's LEG Is BROKEN.
PhiIIies' Scrappy Manager Out of
Game for Season.

st. Louis, Mo-, July 27.-Charles
Doom, catcher and manager of the
Philadelphia National league baseball
team, is in hospital here with a brok-
en- right leg, as the result of a COLI
sion at the home plate in yesterdays
game with St. Louis. Physicians an
nounced he would probably be unable
to play again this season.
Doom must remain iE the hospital
until Saturday night at least, when he
hopes to be taken to Phi Iadelphia. IN
the presence of the managers DOWN
cast teammates. an X-Ray photograph
of the fracture. which is of the right
fibula and about four inches above the
ankle, was taken. The bone is broken
in two.
The accident occurred IN the fourth
inning, while st. Louis was at bat.
Third Baseman Smith Just had been
thrown out at the plate on an infie1d
hit and Center Fielder Cakes was on
third base and Pitcher Geyer on first.
They tried a double steal and as Short
stop Doolan of Philadelphia returned
the ball to Doom, Cakes Sli6 into the
plate, feet first, striking Doom with
great force. While Umpire O'Day was
waving the runner out, Doom dropped
on his face.
Players of both teams carried the
manager to a taxicab. which took him
to a hospital
tai announced that Doom would be out
of the game at least two months, the
manager told his teammates that he
believed he could be able to play
again in six weeks.
Shortstop Michael Doolan will act as
manager of the team while Doom is
absent and Moran and Madden will be
the catchers
This is the third star the Phi1adel-
ph1a team has lost this season in
games with st. Louis. and the players
said Dooin's injury, more than any
thing else, perhaps, would spoil their
chances for the pennant. Outfielder
John Titus is just rounding into shape
after having been out OF the game
since breaking his leg early in the sea-
son in a collision in Philadelphia with
Manager Bresnahan of ST. Louis and
Outfelder Sherwood Magee has been
suspended for the rest of the season
for attacking Umpire Finn eran on ST.
Louis last visit to Philadelphia.

Saccharin.

Saccharin, which was discovered
few years ago by DR.. Ira Remsen, now
president of Johns Hopkins universi-
ty, assisted by others, is in its pure
state five hundred times as sweet as
sugar. In it's commercial form 1t Is
three hundred times as sweet. 1t has
been used extensively in sweetening
jams, cakes, pies and soda-water sir
ups. Yet 1t Is not sugar. and 1t is
asserted that it is not assimilated by
the stomach.
Four years ago a government COM
mission, headed by President Remsen,
was asked to look into the propriety Of
the use Of saccharin In food. It has
lately reported that saccharin is one
of those substances the use Of which
is forbidden by the pure-food law.
The government has consequently or
dered that after July 1st no food
sweetened with it may be sold in any
of the territories, or shipped from one
state to another.
Similar action was taken by practi-
cally all the governments OF Europe
long time ago. Last year an interna-
tional conference was held in Paris for
the purpose of making plans to stamp
out the trade in saccharin. The i'm
portation of it into Italy is forbidden,
and it's manufacture for medicinal
purposes is in the hands Of the gov
ernment.
Even it's medicinal value is disputed.
Like aniline dyes, 1t is a coal-tar pro-
duct. In excess it causes nausea and
sometimes death. 1t is charged that
the laws against it in Europe were
passed at the demand Of the manufac-
turers of cane or beet sugar, but when
it's inventor in America joins in a re-
port condemning it's use in place Of
sugar, such charges may be disre-
garded.

PIouuhman Frost.

1t is a we'll known fact that water In
the act of freezing expands consider
ably and with a force that Is irresist-
ible. 1t Is the freezing Of water In
their crevices and pores that causes
the rocks to be gradually worn down
and "weathered," as it Is called, into
soil. 1t Is this also which Is contin-
ually reducing the soil to finer frag-
ments, breaks up hard clogs and mel
lows the ground.
Fall ploughing or spading assists this
effect by breaking up the compact soil
into Jumps, which are further broken
into small particles. AS water and air
can act only upon the surface of these
particles, it is clear that the smaller
they are, the more surface is exposed
to the weather and the soil is made
soluble.
If a block of hard soil of IL cubic
inches is exposed to the weather S34
square inches only are affected; II II
is broken up into cubes of inch lO,36S
square inches are exposed to these
beneficial influences, and the amount
affected increases as the soil is further
broken up.
This fact shows how greatly the ef-
feet of frost benefits the soil, and
therefore how necessary it is that the
land should be fall ploughed and OPP
,,ortupity given for this beneficial ac-
ton of the weather-Harper's Weekly.
