ANY CORN LIFTS OUT,

No foolishness! Lift your eorns

It's like magic!

Sore cOrns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind of a corn, can harmlessly be
lifted right out with the fingers If you
apply upon the corn few drops Of
freezone, says Cincinnati authority.
For little cost one can get a small
bottle Of freezone at any drug store,
which will positively rid ones feet OF
every corn or callus without pain.
This simple drug dries the moment
1t is applied and does not even irri-
tate the surrounding skin while APP
plying it or afterwards.
This announcement will interest
many Of our readers. If your druggist
hasn't any freezone tell him to surely

Stockings.

In homes where there are children
going to school, and where the stock
ing bill is one of the big items in the
family expense, great saving can be
made by the following method:
When the stockings have become
worn and darned at the knees, and No
longer look neat cut the leg from the
foot, below the top Of the shoe, and
turn the worn part to the back Of the
leg bringing the unwOrn part to the
front. Sew back to the foot with o
fiat seam, so that it will not hurt the
child's ankle. They may not look par
ticularly neat, but certainly no worse
than if worn with the darning Ia front
and it is indeed great savin

PAYS FOR 1850
ACRES OF LAND
From the Crop Of Wheat on So
Acres in Western Canada.

This story OF paying for your land
out of one years crop is fully anthem
ticated by a great many farmers in
Western Canada.
And now, all that the farmer makes
is velvet and you find him going more
extensively into stock raising, for all
authorities agree that in a short time
there will be a demand for live stock.
such as even will tax the vast re-
sources of Western Canada. They
will 90 into stock raising because Of
the adaptability of the country to pro-
vide food and fodder without feeding
grain il necessary. They will go into
stock and improve their places. They
will install steam and heating plants
In fact, many are now doing it. They
will have automobiles, In fact in many
districts there is not a farmer but has
one. They will beautify their homes
and erect fine barns until the. whole
country will be as attractive as many
Of the counties in the best states In
the Union. But we started out to tell
you of the farmer who paid for 100
acres Of land from the crop of wheat
off of SO acres. The Holden district
on the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific
does not appear to the ordinary OBJ
server to be any better than many
other districts along that line, and
probably isn't. 1t was in this district
that John Larcome, a settler pur.
chased in 1915 100 acres Of raw prai-
RE land. He broke and seeded SO
acres. His crop turned out well, and
he sold the greater portion of it for
$2.970. His land cost him $16.50 per
acre, or $3.50. So that the crop from
the SO acres paid for the land and left
a balance of over $500, which with
part of the crop left over would just
pay for the cost of operation. This

Paris Designers
Doom Old Gowns

New York.-There are quite enough
changes In the new clothes arriving
from Paris To make every woman
shake her head in despair and say that
she must have new gown. whether or
not her dress allowance can be
stretched TO cover it.
There are women who hold out that
the gowns of autumn can be renovated
to meet the demands of spring, and
the fOrehanded person has already
been at work in the sewing room hav-
ing her skirts reshaped and her bod
ices built up or down TO meet the re-
quirements of the hour.
The dressmakers are divided into
two classes of opinion; those who are
worried over the seeming similarity
between the spring gowns and those Of
last autumn, and others who are blow
ing the trumpet loudly to proclaim
that the modern silhouette compels
every woman to discard whatever she
has and buy things that are new.
Paris has spoken, however, and no
matter how intense our patriotism we
listen and hearken to the words that
come from the city by the Seine. That
Is the phrase one hears on every side
among the cOmmercialists. We know
what we should wear The gowns
have been shown our buyers, and as
many as possible have been shipped to
this country. We may talk all we
please about our own fashions follow
ing our own flag, but all fashions be-
come ours after they have had their
source in Paris, In limited district Of
the city.
The Drastic Changes.
A mere cursory glimpse at fore
gathering of French gowns may con-
vince the casual OnloOker that moth
ing is to be feared from the new styles.
Old gowns will do; old suits will serve:
old wraps are not thrown in the
