USE LEMON TO CURE ii coRNs
Cheap Remedy That 10 Said to Be
Effectuai in Removing These
Troublesome Ailments.

Humanity has suffered with corns
ever since shoes that pinch the feet
have been worn, but there Is no need
OF even those who will persist in
wearing tight shoes having any more
suffering due to this difti Guilty.
The Italian people have less corns
than any other. The reason for this
fact Is simply because they resort to
the most certain corn cure known In
the world. When an Italian dnds his
corn ia appearing he goes to the lemon
for relief. A piece OF the juicy lemon
skin is tied on the toe completely
covering the affected part, and allow
ed to remain there all nis's,. when It
il removed. The newn will sim
ply disappear. and old offender
will stop hurting, I'd in most in
stances dry up am. disappear In q
few cases where the corn has been q
bad one of long standing, it will re-
quire more than one application. The
acid in the lemon reduces the inflam-
nation and the tissues soon become
normal. d
The remedy is safe, cheap and effec-
tual, and should be tried by every one
who knows what it is to suffer with
a corn. az 3s%g

Rather Thick Headed.

So far. the Alaskan natives have
made little use OF the wonderfully rich
milk Of the reindeer. This milk, as
white as the arctic snow. Is 80 per
cent. pure cream. In fact, it Is prac-
Stically all a rich, snowy white. sugary
cream. It is the most nourishing
milk in the world, but the natives
seem to prefer condensed milk, which
is sent into the mining camps In large
quantities. 1t Is probably because of
the difficulty in milking a reindeer.
Unlike the Laplander. the Eskimo
does not make a pet of his favorite
deer. When he wants to milk her she
Is lassoed and thrown down. Her
legs are then carefully tied with wal
rus skin strings, and her horns safely
held by some stout friend, after which
the process OF milking begins. After
the last drop has been extracted the
highly indignant animal is unlashed
and allowed to get up and go about her
business, Sometimes horn is knock
ed on or leg broken before the strug-
Cling reindeer understands that she is
to be MIXED and not branded or butch
cred. Under the circumstances the
dairying feature of arctic life Is not
prominent and the milkmaid's song il
not welcomed by the wise little ami
NAL who has undergone the torture
of one milking.

Every boy can own little water
motor similar to the one shown in
Fig. /, because it requires nothing but
easily obtained materials. It Is one
Of the simplest and most satisfactory
toy water-motors that boy can
make. An empty varnish-can or oil
can-preferably one of gallon capac-
lty-forms the jacket Of the water
motor. and nothing better could be
desired for this. as the spout in the
top is in just the right place and OF
the right size to receive the water
form faucet Gig. ~. The tin can
makes a lightweight compact case.
and as it Is water-tjght there Is no
possibility of water splashing over
on to the floor. which is big argu-
ment in its favor when seeking per-
mission to use it in the bath.tub,
wash-basin. or kitchen sink.
You can get an empty gallon paint
can from any painter. or at a paint
store, for the asking. The first step
In converting 1t into the motor jacket
Is to remove Its bottom. This will
be found to be soldered in place, and
IL quickly removed by holding the
can over the flame OF gas burner
until the solder melts, when few
blows upon the edges will cause it to
drop on Figs. 3 and show sections
through the can with the paddle wheel
in place. and Fig. shows the com
pleted wheel. The diameter OF the
wheel should be about II inch less
than the inside width 'of the can. In
the model water-wheel from which
the drawings were made. this meas
urement is 51a inches. Cut the tFo
side pieces Of the wheel out Of cigar
box wood, and bore A-inch hole
through the center OF each for the
wheel axle. Fasten spool to the cen
ter OF one side piece for q pulley
wheel Zig. g.. B &
There are eight paddles ~ inches
wide and ~ inches long. Cut these
out Of cigar. box wood. Locate the
positions for the ends Of the paddles
by drawing a horizontal line, q verti-
cal line. and two diagonal lines at
angles Of 40 degrees, through the
centers Of the side pieces. This will
simplify the matter OF placing the
paddles equidistant from one an
