WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply few drops then lift corns o.
calluses off with fingers

-AV PSxN
No sl1umbug! 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 compound of ether discovered by
a Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost
but a trifle, but is sufficient to rid
ones feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. In
stantly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or callus will loos-
en- and can be lifted off with the fin.
gers.
This drug freezone. doesn't eat out
the corn or callus but shrivels them
without even irritating the surround
ing skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying it
or afterwards. If your. druggist
doesn't have freezone have him or
der it for you. =

With thirty years reputation be-

People should note on the label the

Alcohol is now tabooed where one is

Acid Iron Mineral is a non-alcohollc

all of which have great medicinal
value in the treatment Of the stom-

Overwork, strain, nervous tension,

ing. In order to expand on freezing,
these materials must contain or be
mixed with water, and the more water
they contain the greater the expan-
sion which takes place. But so long
as the road remains frozen, the dam
age does not become apparent. Hence
the frequent and erroneous idea that 1T
is the thaw which Injuries the road.
The injury was done when the water
in the road froze and the particles OF
the road surface-broken stone, sand,
still fine particles of earth or clay
were pushed apart Ivy the expanding
power of the freezing water. The
thaw merely allows the ice to melt and
assume its original volume as water.
The remedy is self-evident. Keep
the water out of the road. The time
to begin preventive measures is before
the rains begin. If the road goes into
the winter thoroughly dry with the sur
face and drainage in good condition,
the chances are extremely favorable
that it will come out all right the fol-
lowing spring.

EXCESS WAFER HURTS ROADS
Cold Weather Does Not Cause Injury,
No Matter Whether Road Is
Earth, Gravel Of Macadam.

Water, not cold, is the cause of the
deterioration of roads in winter. Cold
weather does not in itself injure roads
no matter whether they are earth,
gravel or macadam. In fact an earth
road will stand more traffic when 1t Is
solidly frozen than at any other time.
Excess water, however, is always de-
trimental to highway. When cold
weather turns this water into ice, the
damage that it does is greatly in
creased. Ice occupies considerably
more space than the water from which
it is formed, and every person who
has lived in a cold climate is familiar
with the powerful bursting effect OF
water when left to freeze in con-
fined vessel. The same action takes
place when a wet road freezes to any
considerable depth. 1t simply bursts
or as we generally term it in road
parlance, the road heaves. Later, when
the frost leaves the road is disinter-
grated and ruts badly. If this process
is repeated a number of times during
the winter, a gravel or macadam road
may be practically destroyed while an
earth road may become entirely I'M
passable.
A dry road will not heave. Rock,
gravel, sand and even clay when per-
fectly dry contract slightly on freez-

GOOD
ROADS
DOUBLE LOAD ON GOOD ROAD
Farmers Haul Two Wagons Hitched
Together to End of improved High 7
Way-SingIe on Poor Road.

(From the United States Department OF
Agriculture)
To see what really happens at the
end of the good road, a public road
specialist Of the department recently
had observations made in different sec
lions of the country. The observers
noted many country-bound teamsters
who drove two loaded wagons, hitched
one behind the other, to the end Of
the good road, and then found 1t nee
essary to leave one wagon by the road
side to be returned for later, while all
the power of their teams was devoted
to hauling single wagon over the I'M
improved road.
Farmers bound for the market fire.
quently were seen to haul wood and
similar products to the beginning Of
the good road, there dumping them,
and returning for q second load. When
this arrived, the two loads were con-
solidated and easily hauled by single
team the remaining distance to market
over the improved highway.
In one section of the country where
oxen are still used teamsters were OBJ
served to bring their loads over the
dirt roads with two or three Jokes Of
oxen. When the beginning Of the good
roads was reached, the teamsters
would unhitch the extra animals and
finish their journey with a single yoke. i.

keep the surface smooth and hard.
