1By Theodore Beck, NJ. D.

Many men and women, and espec-
cially clerks, policemen, bookkeepers
and housewives, suffer with tired,
aching, swollen and sweaty feet.
Others suffer much from cold feet. or
corns and callouses. This form Of
misery can be readily hanished by the
simple daily use Of antiseptic vilane
powder, a specific Of extraordinary
virtues.
Obtain two ounces Of vilane pow
der from any leading druggist and TO
a gallon OF steaming water add a
teaspoonful and a tablespoonful Of
salt Immerse the feet in this every
night for a few weeks, ten to 20 min
utes, and It will soothe heal and re-
move all poisons and soreness. Corns
and callouses disappear and cold feet
soon become unknown. Any one suf-
fering with their feet should have
this knowledge. Either very hot, or
very cold water should be used.

the case of the Pacific States Tele-
phone e Telegraph company which

citizens from other states and l have
discussed the questions with them,

secure Senator Chamberlain TO make
an argument in behalf of the state.

WANT LAWS PLAIN
so AS TO DODGE THEM

Detroit. Oct. 4.-Asserting that
chaos prevails in the business world
because of uncertainty regarding the
legal definitions of the Sherman law,
and scoring congress for failing to
definitely outline it's exact scope
George w. Perkins, former partner of
]. Pierpont Morgan, in an address
before the chamber of commerce
here today, urged the selection of a
congressional committee which would
exactly define the law regulating the
business of corporations.
In part Perkins said:
Experience has shown thar to en-
force the Sherman law means to
throttle business. Would it not seen
prudent and just to call halt upon
the indiscriminate attack on the
trade of the great industrial agencies
until some one makes it clear how {
large international business can bt
successfully and legally conducted?
"I would suggest that the corpor
ations submit to the government a
regular intervals, statements of thei
operation and capitalization"
