for a signed receipt from J. F. ]. Arch

from the German embassy for propa

ever made in service is not clear, except
mat certain war correspondence for
which he contracted with New YORK
newspapers was so obviously prejudiced
on the side of the central powers that
they declined to accept It.

The lecture platform is represented
by Ray Beveridge the California artist,
and sister of Kuehne Beveridge. the
prominent sculptor. In one entry Privy
Councillor Albert acknowledges receipt
of $4,000 from the embassy to finance
Miss Beveridge's lecture tour. German
war pictures were also to be furnished
though the alleged scope of the lectures
was to be comprised in topics allied to
Red Cross work.
Other figures of more vague import
drift into light here and there in the
Won 1gel papers or the bureau OF ind
vestigation reports. Col. K. G. Wood
ford, an old British hater, appears to
have received sundry sums of money
for service unspecified. The following
letters found in the Won Igel papers re-
fer to Colonel Woodford:

.CALOMH NANTES
SLUGGISH LIVER
Crashes into sour bile, making
you sick and you lose
a days work.

Calomel saliVates {! It's mercury.
Calomel acts like dynamite on a
sluggish liver. When calomel comes
into contact with sour bile it crashes
into it, causing cramping and nausea.
If you feel bilious, 1headachy, con-
stipated and all knocked out, just go
to your druggist and get so cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone, which
is a harmless vegetable substitute for
dangerous ca1omel. Take spoonful
and if it doesn't start your liver and
straighten you up better and quicker
than nasty calomel and without max
ing you sick, you just go back and
get your money.
If you take calomel today you'll be
sick and nauseated tomorrow; be-
sides, it may salivate you, while if
you take Dodson's Liver Tone you
will wake up feeling. great, full of
ambition and ready for work or play.
It is harmless, pleasant and safe, to
give to- children; they like it.

WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR C0RNs
Apply few drops then lift .corns or
calluses off with fingers
no pain.

No 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 Gin
cinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a, small
bottle of ffeezone, which will cost but
a trifie, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus. II
Put a few drops directly upon anv
tender, aching corn or caIlus. 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
cerns or ealluses but shrivels them with
out even irritating the surrounding skin.
Just think Ne pain at all; no sore
ness or snnarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your druggist don't have
fTeezone have him order it for you.

BUCKLE.AND- TONGUE.

Making buckle and tongue meet is ;
common Crackerism in the South
What this means for the average fam
lily of five in North Carolina AM
Georgia was investigated by the Fed
eraI authorities several years agC
when the cost of living was far lower
than it is today.
1t was found at that time thai
| $408.26 a year with good management
would furnish an average family with
the bare necessities of life-food
enough for working efficiency, clothine
enough to keep warm in winter. to
keep clean and avoid rags, and a min
imum of light and fuel; but allowed no
margin for car fare, insurance, or
funeral expenses.
A little higher standard of living
called for an average family income
OF $708.S7 a year With care this sum
would allow abundant and varied food.
individual taste in clothing with
changes for Sundays and holidays.
sufficient room space, and small sum
over for health. insurance, and mod
crate recreation.
Where Prosperity Pinches.
In this year Of our Lord 1917 the
cost of food, fuel and clothing has
reached a maximum level The index
figures of The Annalist show that the
cost of "a staple food stuffs has lit
tie more than doubled during the last
twenty years.
A minimum standard of living in
North Carolina now calls for some
sos year, and a fair standard of
living for a family income of 1929.
Incomes of this sort will enable wage
earners and saIaried people to make
buckIe-and-tongue meet barely or
comfortably
If mans yearly income nowadays
is smaller than these totals, his fam
lily must go without the bare necesst-
ties of life, they must get along with
fewer home comforts, and foregO all
Injuries; or his children must leave
school and go to work years too early;
while his daughters and wife must
become breadwinners outside the
shelter of the home. as nearly exactly
a fourth of the white girls and women
ten years old and over were doing in
North Carolina in 1910.
With these hard facts of existence
in mind, consider the average annual
salaries of our rural white school
teachers, 235; of the white public
school teachers in ou rcity systems.
$454; of Baptist preachers outside
cities of 5000 inhabitants $473 Meth
odist preachers 1851. Presbyterian
preachers 1888; and along with these
the maximum possible incomes of in
dustrial workers, which in 1915 ranged
from 1859 for motor car mechanics to
S1408 for plumbers.
