"Glory! Come and See How GETS-IT
Works!"

"GETS-fT," the new corn cure ON a
new principle, works like the touch OF
a fairy's wand. No more knives, razors
files or other instruments of torture for
corn sufferers. No more salves, plasters
and bandages that hurt the rest of the
toe more than they relieve the corn.
"GETS.IT" never irritates or turns
the true flesh raw. 1t is safe as water.
But my, how it does get after corns,
bunions, callouses and warts. 1t works
painlessly, but it shrvels 'em right up
till they drop off. leaving the firm,
healthy flesh underneath.
"GETS-IT'' is guaranteed to give sat
isfaction, or your money is refunded.
All druggists sell "GETS-IT' at %

ceipt of price by +. Lawrence & Co.,

The oft-quoted remark of the Gov ernor of North Carolina 10 the Gov ernor of South Carolina has at last been brought into court carefully construed. and found not to be so long as some other times. It is prob able that it was the exceeding droughtiness of the interval which made it seem long.

It was objected that this evil dence did not show that the prose cution had been begun within 12 months after the sale Of the whisky, the time limited by statute for begin ming a prosecution.

Vanity in Wearing Hair Long.


 The church for hundreds of years fought strenuously against long hair. declaring it to be vain. as doubtless it was. and Is. Most of the merry pleasure-loving monarchs in history and their subjects wore the hair in fastidious and elaborate ways. On the other hand, tee Spartans. the stern followers of Cromwell, and the Puritans wore their hair short. The wax figures in nair-dressing shops, adorned with messes of puffs and curls. lead one to think that the pres ent-day methods of hair-dessing are not unlike those practiced hundreds of years ago. It seems certain that. while women still continue to con sider puffs and switches as part of the necessary paraphernalia of the head. men have discarded long hair for good and all, with the exception of the few musicians, poets, or pain ters who think it incumbent on them to let their locks grow long.
