IT'S YOUR STEP
THAT ATTRACTS
Says Women Pay Too Much Heed to
Their Face Instead of Their
Corns

Watch your step! A brisk, lively step
is what charms more than lovely skin
but your high heels have caused corns
and you limp little. That's bad, girls
and you know it. Corns destroy beauty
and grace, besides corns are very easy
TO remove.
Rid your feet of every corn by asking
at the drug store for quarter of an
ounce of freezone This will cost little
but is sufficient to remove every hard or
soft corn or callous from ones feet
A few drops applied directly upon a
tender, achy corn relieves the soreness
and soon the entire corn, root and all,
lifts right out without pain.
This freezone is gummy substance,
which dries instantly and simply shrivels
up the corn without infaming or even
irritating the surrounding skin.
Women must keep in mind that corn
less feet create youthful step which
enhances her attractiveness.

on the classics and particularly on Bee
thoven. After Fritz Kreisler, who is to
appear in Burlington at the U. V. NJ.
gym on Friday evening, Jan. 20, under
the local management of Arthur w. Dow,
had played the Beethoven concerto with
the Boston Symphony orchestra in New
York. Mr.. Krebbiel wrote as follows in
the New York Tribune:
"To say at once all that is necessary,
though not at all what it would be a
pleasure to say if time allowed, Mr..
Fritz Kreisler, DR.. Muck and the orches-
ira played the concerto for violin by
Beethoven. 1t was the combination which
carried the greatest Joy to the minds and
hearts of the listeners, brilliant as the
achievement of the solo performer was;
and it was superlatively brilliant and
thrilling, especially in everything that
followed after the first note of the caden-
"a in the first movement. Under them a
captieus critic might have been pardoned
the feeling that Mr.. kreisler was a lit
tie too much under the domination of
that spirit of unrest which is threaten
ing to become a WEAKNESS to the flesh
and a curse to the spirit in this period
of nerverasping musical activity. But
when Mr.. kreisler began Beethoven's
serene romance there were peace and
healing on the wings of the music at
once and happiness and refreshment."
Kreisler will be assisted in his first
appearance in Vermont by the Russian
baritone, Reinhold Warlich.--adv.

Girl Doesn't ENJOY
.C0mbanp OF the Men

Dear Miss Grey: am a girl 10
years OF age. ! have been going
with a nice crowd OF girls who are
all very dear 10 me. a number OF
young men have Joined the crowd
and when we 20 out they are al
ways invited. Now prefer the
company OF the girls alone. ! do
not care for the men. The other
girls seem 10 think we can't have
a good time without them. Some
OF them call me n ''man-hater." and
others say am jealous. neither OF
which Is true. Ny question Ia this :
Shall | give up the company of
these grand girls. or shall go with
them and try TO like the boys7
JuSTA.
II would seem there should
b. opportunity for both sorts
OF diversion-sometim 10 en-
Joy tho company OF the girls
alone and others the whole
group: but perhaps you are all
too busy for that But YOU can
not hope to persuade your
friends TO reject tho company
OF the young men. As you say.
they prefer their company 10
that OF girls alone. So you must
take your choice. And the
wisest choice would be to stay
with this group of girl friends
and enjoy as far as you can
the pleasures they enjoy.
