"GETS-IT' is the new way, the simple
common-sense, sures way. 1t does
away with greasy ointments, salves,
pads, cotton rings, harnesses, knives,
scissors, razors, files, and the limping
and the painful pigeon-toe walk of SO
many eorn-pestered people. All you
do is put 2 drops of "GETS-IT" on

Nothing else In the world like GETS

no pain, no trouble, no changing shoes

"GETS-IT" is sold by druggists
everywhere, 25c a bottle, or sent di-
rect by e. Lawrence & Co., Chicago.
Sold in Honolulu and recommended

no less than 1900 counties. where the
electors are now choosing delegates to
/ provincial conventions which will meet
at the local capitals. These conventions
will select delegates to meet as ma
tional convention In Peklng.
The object OF the national convention
| primarily was to pass upon the work OF
! the council OF state. which has been re-
vising the Chinese constitution. AS an
after thought the central government de-
! cided TO submit TO the national citizens
/ convention the question of the re-estab-
/ lishment OF the monarchy. II Is expected
that the work OF the local conventions
will be finished by November 20. and the
national citizens convention will meet al

termine the fate of the republic.
