When corns make you almost die
with your boots on" when you've
soaked them and picked them and
sliced them, when corn-swelling salves,
and tapes, bandages, and plasters that
make corns pop-eyed have only made
your corns grow faster, just hold your
heart a moment and figure this: Put
TWO drops of "Gets-It" on the corn
1t dries at once You can put your
shoe and stocking on right over it.
The corn is doomed. 1t makes the
corn come off clear and clean. It's
the new, easy way. Nothing to stick
or press on the corn. You can wear
smaller shoes. You'll be joy-walker.
No pain, no trouble. Accept no SUBJ
stitutes.
-Gets-It'' is sold by druggists every
where. Csc a bottle, or sent direct by
E. Lawrence & Co., Chicago. Ill. Sold

INTEREST ON FOREIGN LOANS.

The rate of interest paid on a loan
is not the concern of the borrower
alone. says the Annalist. The lender
is, or should be, interested in the rate
being what it should be. A borrower
who is required to pay more than is
reasonable makes a poor customer,
and the borrower is the customer of
the lender, for he buys and pays for
the credit which the lender has for
sale. There is temporary advantage
hut ultimate disadvantage to the lend
er in exacting more than a reasonable
rate for the accommodation which he
extends We ought to have that fact
clearly in mind in making loans
abroad. Europe's necessities may be
great, and she may pay more than
fair rate to obtain advances in the
United States, but it is to our ultimate
advantage to lend upon reasonable
terms.
The bankers who arranged the loan
to France which was so successfully
f1oated last week voluntarily reduced
the rate of interest charged the
French government when it was found
that the loan could be placed with

Another of the big western railroad
systems is awakening to the fact that
the Santa Fe has realized and taken
advantage of for long time; namely
that Topeka is an ideai location for
railroad center. The Union Pacific
system has adopted plans fer the i'm
mediate future that will materially
increase the size and scope Of it's plant
here, and which will give employment
10 200 or more men, many of whom
will be brought from other places on
the Union Pacific lines. And while
this may sound liz catravagant
boasting. it is nevertheless the fact
that there is no city in the entire
country where the environment for
all classes of working people, clerks or
shopmen, is better than is that of To-
peka. 1t was this asset OF Topeka that
played a major part in the decision of
the Santa Fe some years ago not to
reduce its shop plant here and estab-
lish its main shop plant at Argentine,
more strategic railroad point than
Topeka for the Santa Fe. but to in
crease its shop plant here and to such
proportions that there is no possibility
that the Santa Fe will again ever con-
sider a relocation CT its main shop

BED t HMIE TALES

THREE LITTLE KITTENS.

Three little kittens lived in very
nice box just under the loft in great
big barn. And very good time they
had together, too. They played with
their tails and they washed their faces
neatly, just as their mother had taught
them to, and they frolicked gaily
through the barn-high and low.
The only time they were not happy
was eating time. Isn't that queer?
And why do you suppose they were
unhappy then?
Those three little kittens cried and
fused every time they had a meal
Wasn't that dreadful of them?
Three times every day the little girl
and the little boy who lived in the
house came out and brought the three
kittens their food. And as soon as
that little boy and that little girl APP
peared at the barn door, the three lit
tie kittens began to cry and fuss and
quarrel because they each wanted to
eat first.
One morning the littlest of the
three kittens heard the breakfast
coming and she said to herself, IL
don't believe I'll cry this morning.

I'll sit real still and see If / can't get
my breakfast Just as quickly as il l
cried for it. And anyway, I'm tired
of it, too" (And they were.)
So when the children appeared at
the door of the barn the biggest kit
ten cried and cried to eat first and
the middle sized kitten scratched and
snarled, and the littlest kitten kept
perfectly still-and ate up all the
breakfast. Think of that,
When noontime came the middle
sized kitten said to herself, when she
heard the children at the barn door,
I'm going to try the plan THAI my
sister worked this morning She got
plenty of breakfast, and I got none.
