OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen a tender corn
or calIus so it lifts out
without pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by Cincinnati authority
to. use drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
lieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers
Freezone dries the moment it is an
piled, and simply shrivels the corn or cal.
lus without inflaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. a small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any Of the drug stores, but will posi-
lively rid ones feet of every hard or.
soft corn or hardened callus. If vonr
druggist hasn't any freezone he can oct
it at any wholesale drug house for Won.
This is the season VWheir the canning
machine should be in use frequently for
both fruits and vegetables.

CHEAP JOKE CAUSES LOT
OF TROUBLE OVER DRAFT

A life-sized scare was given number
of New Ul1n young men Thursday when
message came over the wires from
Minneapolis, that the draft had started"
The message gave the following num-
bers had been drawn: 5, II, II, 81, 81,
ST, 100, 107, 100, III, 1875, 145 and
146. There was scurryingto COM
pare numbers and those who supposed
they had been drawn into the drag
net were mentally measuring the distance
between New Ulm and somewhere in
France"
Story Not True. -r
Members of the exemption board and
some other citizens had some doubts Of
the correctness of the story. Especially
was this true of the members of the
board, for the reason that the lists are
not yet completed, and they did not be-
lieve the drawing would begin until that
work was finished. To verify their con-
tention Sheriff w. j. Julius called up
the office of the adjutant general in St..
Paul by telephone, when he was informed
that the report was untrue.
It. was concluded by the adjutant
general and thea members Aof his staff
that the report was the work of fake
newspaper reporter, but it is said to
have emanated from telegraph operator
in Chicago brokerage Office, who sent
the story over the wire as joke.
Twin Cities Excited.
In Minneapolis and St. Paul, according
to Friday mornings papers, there was
almost riot in the attempt of those who
supposed they had been drawn to learn
the truth of the matter. Some even
seemed somewhat disappointed when
they learned that there was no truth in
the story. Il f.%... -
| Government officials say the offense is
serious one, and if discovered the person
who sent out the list is liable to twenty
years imprisonment.

Methodists Hold Picnic.

About two hundred members of the
Methodist Sunday School celebrated the
Fourth with picnic in the grove six
miles west of the city in Milford town
ship. The feature was ball game be-
tween a team made up of city boys
against one composed of the country
men. The game was won by the former
by score of 9 to 1. Rev. c.. C. Holm
umpired the game, and says he barely
escaped with his life. A good time is re.

a short time in the morning threatened
to spoil the day. The clouds, however.
soon cleared away and the afternoon was
especially pleasant

HELP ROADS
IN CAMPAIGN OF SAFETY
Chicago & Northwestern Officers
Keep Up Work of Education.

The Chicago & Northwestern Railway
company is continuing its relentless
campaign of education for safety. Cards
and circulars are. sent broadcast each
week. R. G. Richards, chairman Of the
Central Safety committee of that road,
says that a pleasant feature OF the cam
paign is the fact that the newspapers
are cooperating so generously in the
matter.
Thousands Are Killed.
During the years 1915 and 1916 there
were 1881 men, women and children
killed while trespassing on railroad
tracks in this country-nineteen times
as many as there were passengers killed.
When it is known that more than 2,000,-
. 100000 were transported during that
time these figures are obvious. In the
two years mentioned 2,482 persons were
killed in the United States while trying
to cross railway tracks in automobiles
without watching to see if a train was
approaching,
Gamble Lives Away.

nothing is said or done to stop it, and yet
neither the man, his family, the COM

Carranza's election was a farce, no
other name was proposed or dared be.
The voter received his ballot and had to
vote or take the consequences. I saw
the whole farcical scene one Sunday
morning. When Carranza came to
Mexico City his reception was funeral.
True, he ordered the cathedral bells to
be rung and the factory whistles blown,
but the only response was a few hundred
poems who came down to the plaza and
palace. While the election was quiet in
Mexico City, in other cities women and
children were ordered off the streets, and
in Tampico there were fights and
fatalities, @~,. -;

Mexico is the Thieves Paradise. The
capital has what is called a Thieves
Market to receive stolen goods.3 In
movie theatres signs tell you to beware
of pickpockets and the pictures Of noted
crooks are thrown on the screen so the
audience may avoid them. They steal
your valise from your side while you are
buying your railroad ticket. At the
station you must sit on your baggage
or have some fellow run away with it. If
you want to keep your watch, stickpin
or handkerchief, you must hide them and
walk with your hands in your pockets.
Boodling and begging are the leading
professions. as<
The new constitution is fearfully and
wonderfully made. The government
motto is Justice but the present
government has worked more injustice
and misery on the people than any
government anywhere.

In New Ulnn.

Several hundred people gathered at
Turner park, where the New Ulm Con-
cert band had arranged picnic and
celebration. The band furnished music
while the visitors enjoyed themselves in
various ways. It was noticeable that
most of those at the park were from out
of town. New Ulm folks celebrated in
Springfield, Sleepy Eye, Comfrey and
other towns. while those from afar came
to this city to enjoy the freedom of the
city and enjoy the day.
The rain during the forenoon had been
somewhat discouraging, but shortly after
noon the clouds cleared away, Old Sol
came out in all his glory, and the weather
for the rest of the day and during the
evening could not have been more de-
lightful.
