Springtime
in the Shops

Every box has been moved. every
can, every bottle. every jar in the
Gtudebaker grocery store, Second
street at the crossing of state, and
the store has been given the sort of
thorough house-cleaning that would
delight every tidy and particular
housewife. This "house-cleaning. /
learned is part of the regular rou-
tine at this store and is done so that
the customer who buys here knows
that the store with which she deals in
sists on the same perfect cleanliness
that is demanded in the home, not
only in regard to their shelves and
counters, but also in every food-pro-
duct which it sells.
The Breakfast Room
The breakfast room must be light
and cheerful in its furnishings, and
it may be more daring in the intro
duction of bright color than any other
room in the house. The A. Il. Tack
Wall Paper Shop, 1916 North Third
street, offers wonderfully lovely wall
covering, having delicate gray back
ground. on which birds of brilliant
plumage, perch on light bamboo
reeds, while gay butterflies give an
air of life and color to this unusual
and very pleasing decoration. The
new painted furniture and curtains of
striped silk using the tones of the pa
per would make a>mcst artistic room.

SEEMS EVERYONE
HEARD ABOUT IT
All want to try new drug that
dries up corns so they
lift out.

Good news spreads rapidly and
druggists here are kept busy dispens-
ing freeZone. the recent discovery of
a Cincinnati man, which is said to
loosen any corn so it lifts out with
the fingers.
A quarter of an ounce costs very
little at any pharmacy, but is said to
be sufficient to rid ones feet of every
hard or soft corn or eallous
You apply just few drops on the
tender, aching corn and instantly the
soreness is relieved, and soon the corn
is so shriveled that it lifts out without
pain. 1t is a sticky substance which
dries when applied and never inflames
or even irritates the adjoining tissue.
This discovery will prevent thou
sands of deaths annually from lock-
jaw and infection heretofore result
ing from the suicidal habit of cutting
corns.

In view OF the fact that the people
OF the city OF Richmond as well as
those of the entire land are literally
/ torn from their bearings by the tur-
moii OF war, and the fast and ever
changing conditions brought on by
the world wide struggle. the evanEe-

ago by the Baptist denomination. has
had wonderful success. and 1t IL es-
timated that by the close OF the SER
vices tonight more than 500 additions
will have been placed on ths church
rolls.
The campaign has been driven with
great force and impetus since the be-
ginning. and despite the non-intersst
exhibited during the first week of the
drive. those In charge with praise
worthy perseverance redoubled their
Efforts with the foregoing results. Be-
cause of the general tendency OF the
public to neglect church afssisx and
Fduties due most probably to the pre-
occupied state OF mind caused by the
war. the drive was instituted, and the
church organizations are today firmly
convinced that their efforts were
beautifully rewarded.
With the services today and tonight
the drive closes and every church that
has participated in the campaign will
ings that have been going on in the
First Baptist church at noon each
day closed Friday. The talks by DR..
White, who conducted the services,
were the cause OF much comment
among thu various ministers OF the
city, each expressing intense interest
In them. The final noon meeting was
led by DR.. Virgin. OF Roanoke. and
was one of the greatest OF the entire
campaign.
For various reasons the street SER
vices were not instituted as were
planned by the organizations, and
there were no services last night. The
reports from the churches up to to-
day were as follows:
