WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply q few drops then lift corns or
~caIIuses off with fingers
no pain.

Ne humbug! Any corn, whether hard,
soft or between the toes, will loosen
right up and lift out, without a particle
OF pain or soreness.
This drug is called ~freezone and Is a
compound OF ether discovered by a Gin
cinuati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
q trife, but is. sufficient to rid ones
feet Of every corn or callus.
!9ut a few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. INSTANTLY
the soreness disappears and shortly the
corn or callus will loosen and can be
lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out, the
cornS or ~calluses but shrivels them with
out even irritating the surrounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your druggist don't have
freezone have him order it for you.

FOR A PATRIOTIC AND
SANE FOURTH OF JULY.
commissioner Young Issues Statement
Urging Fireless Fourth,

commissioner Young Issues Statement
Urging Fireless Fourth.
insurance Commissioner Young, in
MS campaign looking to the entire
elimination of fireworks in celebration
OF the Fourth of July in North Carroll
ma this year. has given out the follow
ing statement:
independence Day in this, the most
momentous year in American history,
IS a day which each loyal citizen feels
should be given every show of potriot-
ism and all demonstration of loyalty
to the nation. At a time when the
United States has been drawn into the
greatest war of all time to make the
world safe for democracy it is but
hitting that all the citizens of the first
n greatest democracy Of the world
should observe it's natal day in proper
manner. Flag exercises. patriotic
gatherings, religious ceremonies with
prayer for the guidance of those en-
trusted with leadership are but fitting
and proper modes of expressing this
fealty to America and pledging fidelity
in the cause in which her banners are
unfurld and to which her sons are con-
| secrated.
America today is not the America
of 1898 orIeven the America of 1915.
Hr patriotism of 1917, while not one
whit less ardent than in the former
years, is a conservative patriotism.
Every energy of officials in all govern
mental departments is being expended
toward conservation. Conservation of
food, of money. of health and of life.
North Carolina will do her part in
observing independence Day, July 4,
but let us hope it shall be for once
said that this state paid a glorious
tribute on the nations girthday with
out the use of a bit of fireworks. Let
us ohpe that it will be a n~oiseless and
a f~ireless Fourth of July.
cit ha sheen repeatedly suggested
that the use of fireworks at this time
might work a great deal of harm to
the county. No one can doubt it who
has kept track of the Fourth of July
bonires and mortality lists during
past years. The danger this year is
multiplied many times. An apparent
ly harmless display of fireworks at this
time might set fire to a store of COM
bustibles. OF even worse, to a store of
fOodstuffs.
"The time to check certain evils is
before they have even time to take
shape. The time is now for North
Carolina to see tina this years is a
~ireless Fourth. We sincerely hope
and trust mere in North Carolina that
there are no resident traitors, but it
there should be, an apparently harm
less display Of fireworks gives that
traitor an opportunity to set fire to pro-
perty with the chance OF not being
detected.
LET the people reserve all gunpow-
der and explosives for use in leg1t1-
mate warfare and cut out their use In
any way whatever a symbols OF pa
triotism on the Fourth of July"

BEAUTIFY THE SKIN
Make this beauty lotion cheapIy for

At the cost of a small jar of ordinary
cold cream one can prepare a full quar-
ter pint of the most wonderful lemon
skin s~oftener and complexion beautitier,
by squeezing the juice of two fresh lem
ons into a bottle containing three ounces
OF orchard white. Care should be taken
to strain the juice through a fine cloth
SO no lemon pulp gets in, then this To-
ton will keep fresh for months. Every
oma knows that lemon juice is used
TO bleach and remove such blemishes as
1recEles, %sallowness and tan and is
The ideal skin softener, whitener and
beautifer.
Just try it! Get three ounces of
orchard white at any drug store and
Two lemons from the grocer and make up
a quarter pint of this sweetly fragrant
lemon lotion and massage it daily into
the face, neck, arms and hands. 1t is
marvellous to smoother rough, red hands,

Pittsburgh, Pa, Feb. 10. The rail

temporary suspension Of industrial &C
tivity in the Pittsburgh district. The
fires in approximately forty furnaces
in the district have been banked while
various departments at many mills
; have been closed because of shortage
in cars. Railroad officials estimate
that more than $4,000 tons of structural
material alone are in the local yards
awaiting movement.
In the coal fields in this vicinity, the

day postponed from February 81 to
March IS, the operation OF its recent
order requiring railroads to return I'm.
der $4,000 penalty, empty coal cars to
connecting lines.
The order adopted as a measure to
relieve congestion after the railroads
had unsuccessfully sought to do SO by
their own rules, was regarded as tho
forerunner of similar orders to be ap.
piled to all classes of freight cars.
Recent action of the railroads, how
ever, in agreeing to return as speedily
as possible all empty cars on their
lines, 1t Is understood, impelled the
commission to postpone the effective
date of its order.
