of the navy and marine corps who may lose their lives during the war, are to be appointed to act for the Navy Relief society in the states of New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Vermont, Rear Admiral Nathaniel R. Usher, com mandant of the third naval reserve district, announced tonight. In these states there are nearly 35,000 families with sons, brothers. or fathers in the navy, it was stated.
 These women are to be known as auxiliary aides of the Navy Relief so- ciety," a statement said, and will work under the direction of the New York auxiliary.
 whenever an enlisted men, seaman or marine loses his life in service, the auxiliary aide will visit the family and extend the sympathy of the Navy Relief society and give such assistance as is needed. The society will assist, if necessary, in obtaining the prompt payment of government insurance and allowances.
 "The work of the Navy Relief so- ciety. which was founded in 1904 by Admiral Dewey does not overlap in any way the relief work of the Red Cross. The Red Cross aids the fami- lies of living men while the Navy Re ! lief society assists those of men who have died for their country"

BRITISH ARMY HEADQUARTERS IN FRANCE, Dec. 25.-(By the Asso- ciated Press) - Christmas day was bright and cold on the battle front but there were no demonstrative cele- brations. Also there was no fraterniz- ing with the Germans as happened on the first. and even on the second Christmas of the war. The German methods of warfare have wholly de- stroyed any tendency of that sort among the Britons.
 The British guns have been active during the last few days. Yesterday they achieved considerable consolida- tion on the enemy infantry in the neighborhood of Becelaere and inflicted many casualties.

It frequently happens that after new piston rings have been installed for the express purpose of stopping oil leaks, the condition continues just the same. It may be necessary to lap in the rings for a really satisfactory job. If the cylinder has been worn out of round, it will be necessary to fit the ring to the altered shape and tapping if necessary.

 Immediately upon their arrival MT Nicholson shut off the furnace and a physician, and the proper authorizes were notified. Mrs. Nickels was pro- nounced dead from accidental carbon monoxide poisoning and small hope was given the watchers for the recov- cry of Mir. Nickels. Dr. Sweek, who had charge of the case, stated yester- day that for several days Mir. Nickels had been complaining from headaches which could not be accounted for. When he left his home into which he had but recently moved, he appeared in a much better condition.

New Board Is Named
 The only appointments announced by the governor were those of the members of the commission on state institutes. The new members are Homer R. Wood of Prescott and F. c. Struckmeyer and Charles R. Os- burn of Phoenix. MT. Osburn is the republican member and occupied cor responding position in the old board of control.
 In relation to the position of MT. Kuchler of the tax commission and the tender of that office to MT. Campbell, it was stated that s:r. Kuchler at the request of his friends will not resign though he would be glad to rid him. self of the office. It is contended that the tax commission is not board in which the governor can create a va cancy and cannot with propriety re- qnest the resignation of member. The commissionerships are elective and though MT. Kuchler holds his place by appointment, the appointment in this case was made to fill vacancy 1 His status upon his appointment be- came the same as that Of the other members of the commission.

How to loosen a tender corn
or caIIus so II lifts out
without pain.

Let folks step on your feet hereafter;
wear shoes a size smaller If you like,
for corns will never again send electric
sparks of pain through you, according
TO this Cincinnati authority.
He says that few drops Of drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn. instantly re-
lieves soreness, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or cnllus without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
A small bottle of freezone obtained
at any drug store will cost very little
but will positively remove every hard
or soft corn or callus from ones feet.
II your druggist hasn't stocked this
new drug yet, tell him to get a small
bottle of freezone for you from his
wholesale drug house.-adv.

masses. For winter bloom, SOW late
in August and thin the seedlings so
as TO stand about four inches apart,
but for spring bloom or for borders
the seeds should be sown in the open
early in the spring, or even late in the
preceding autumn in some localities.
Where the plant will not endure the
winter, however, early spring planting
under cover, either in a cold frame or
spent hotbed, or in boxes in n dwelling,
is most to- be relied upon. Alyssum
can also be increased from cuttings
made from strong new side shoots, as
well as by division Of the roots. By
cutting back after the first flowers
fade others will be produced. While
white is the most common and popu-
lar color, there are yellow varieties
of alyssum.

New Ideas in Graduation Frocks

If it were not for net, crepe geor-
gette might be said TO hold first place
In the esteem of fashion for mid
summer dressy frocks, and If it were
not for crepe georgette, we would GER
tainly concede that distinction to net.
AS 1t is they flourish with equal sue
cess and appear side by side in the
most enchanting dresses.
But when it comes TO choosing ma
terials for graduation frocks there is
nothing quite so well liked as net. 1t
Is sprightly and youthful looking and
dresses made of ii are planned to visu-
alize the young summer. Plain, fine
meshed nets are exactly suited to the
youth of those who are just about TO
bid farewell to schooldays. In spite
of the lovely, interminable procession
of Whitehead maids that have passed
along this same path, some new
touches have been found to distin-
guish the dresses of this years gradu-
ates. Little, inconspicuous accessories
and novel decorations make them in
teresting and the daintiness and re-
finement of net and organdie make
them beautiful.

sown outdoors in April where the
