comes "GETSIT' with a newly discov-
cred formula-the corn cure on a new
principle and a simple plan that never
fails This is why "GETSIT' has
grown in three years to be the biggest
selling corn cure the world has ever
known.
There's no more need of iussing
with corns, no more digging or cut
ing. There's nothing to press down
on the corn, nothing to inhame the
flesh, to pull the corn or cause pain.
Put two drops of "GETSIT" on in two
seconds. That's all. For any corn,
Callus, wart or bunion.
"GETS-IT" is sold by druggists ev-

Despite strenuous denials that there

BODY FOUND THAT OF
STEAMER PRICE MATE

PORT HURON, Mich, Sept. IT,
fhe body of the sailor found last
Thursday on the shore near Port
Frank, Ont, has been positively iden-
titled as that Of Charles Hartman of
St. Clair, first mate of the steamer
Charles S. Price.
DR.. I. w. Bowbeer, dentist, Of St.
Clair, who did some dental work for
Hartman, made the identification. The
recovery of the body of Hartman ends
weary vigil which has been main
tanned by patient mother, Mrs.
Charles Hartman, ever since the storm
of Nov. Gil swept over the lakes.
The mother has made repeated trips
to this city to see if there was not
some possibility of sending a diver
down to inspect the hull of the Price
and locate the body of her son. The
position of the wreck and the atten-
dant dangers made the task a hopeless
one.
Every time body has been found
the little woman has made a trip to
ed by her brother and Undertaken
Falk, went to Thedford, Ont, where
the body Of the sailor was being held.
Mr.. Falk was positive that the body
was that of Hartman, but the mother
was not quite sure, so DR.. Bowbeer
went to Thedford and made the iden-
LITIGATION positive.
The body was brought to this city
and the funeral was held here. The
body of Hartman was found but a
short distance from where seven of
mis- companions on the Price came
ashore last November.

HARNESS EVENTS
MAY BEL0SINC
PULLING POWER
Auto Races and Aerial Stunts
Stunts Draw Bigger
Crowds to Fair.
(By E. r. HOsking.)

Some of the members Of the State
Fair board are beginning to suspect
that the noble horse is losing his
drawing power on the amusement pro-
gram of the great state exposition
The harness race program did not
draw particularly we'll this year, and
this was especially noticeable last
Friday when the greatest single pro-
gram ever run off in one day on the
fair track was given, as result OF
the cancellation of the Thursday card,
because of rain.
The card for Friday embraced
events for which an aggregate OF
$4,000 was given in purses and yet
the grand stand attendance did not
greatly exceed 5000. A public winch
has grown accustomed to the thrills
supplied by dare devil auto races and
death defying aerial stunts may be
growing little tired Of the COMPARE
tive monotony of trotting and pacing
races. The tendency seems to be for
action and speed and in both these
particulars the automobile and air
racers have a wide margin on the
.lorse. q Elx
At any rate, the auto races have
been drawing much bigger crowds
than the horses have attracted.
The proportion of the visitors to the
fair who prefer harness racing to
more thrilling forms of amusement
seems to be growing smaller every
wear, and this has not passed unnotic-
ed by those whose duty it is to frame
programs that will pull the public out
to Hamline.
