KNIFE 0N CORNS
 CAUSES LOCKJAW
Tells how to loosen a tender corn so 1t lifts out with
 out Pain.

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment few drops are applied to any corn, the soreness is relieved and soon the entire corn, root and all. lifts out with the fingers.
 It is a sticky substance which dries the moment it is applied and is said to simply shrivel the corn without in flaming or even irritating the sur. rounding tissue or skin. It is claimed that a quarter of an ounce will cost very little at any of the drug stores. but is sufficient to rid ones feet of every hard or soft corn Or callus.
 You are further warned that cutting at corn is a suicidal habit.

 Boston, Mass.-Victims of eye strain and other eye weaknesses, and those who wear glasses, will be glad to know that Doctors and Eye Specialists now agree there is real hope and help for them. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored they have thrown them away. One man says, after using it: q was al- most blind.

It was like miracle to me-" A lady who used it says: 'The atmos- phere seemed hazy with CT without glasses, but after using this prescrip- tion for fifteen days everything seems clear. can read even fine print with out glasses" Another who used it says: -I was bothered with eye strain caused by overworked, tired eyes which induced fierce headaches. I have worn glasses for several years, both for dis tance and work, and without them I could not read my own name on an machine before me. l can do both now, and have discarded my long distance glasses altogether l can count the l street now. which for seS several Ioss years srs have looked like a dim green blur to | me; l cannot express my joy at what 1 1t has done for me"

In order that each district board

.SHYLOCk ROLES
ARE PLAYED BY
| LIGHT COMPANIES
-WllIIAM A. BOND.
City Attorney Tells the State
Commission Electric Firms
Ask Too Much.

Indiana light companies which are
seeking an increase Of thirty percent
in their rates are playing the parts OF
"Shylocks" and are not content with
the pound of flesh but want the drops
of blood as WE'LL" City Attorney Bond
told the state public service commiss-
ion Monday when the petition of the
light companies came up for hearing.
Attorney Bond. who returned to
Richmond Monday night, claimed the
commission did not have authority to
try the cases collectively and the
forty-one companies, all members OF
the Indiana Electric Light association,
through which the petition was filed,
were instructed to file separate petit
ions.
Hearing on the petitions will be
started August 20, the date fixed by
the commission.
Utilities Should Pay Too.
There is no question about the
difficulty Of the present times but the
utilities should bear their part Of the
burdens imposed by war as well as
individuals" Attorney Bond, who rep
resents forty cities which are opposing
the raise said Tuesday. Instead the
companies are trying to shift the whole
burden on the consumers"
Experts will be employed to check
up figures Of operating expenses to
be submitted to the commission by
the private companies, Attorney Bond
said.
Data on operating expenses of plants
owned by municipalities also will be
collected to be submitted to the COM
mission, to show that the commission
is not justified In granting authority
for an increase in rates.

AGED WOMAN REVoLUTioNIsT
OPTIMISTIC OVER SITUATION

BOSTON. July 24.-Optimistic views
of the Russian situation are expressed
in two letters just received here from
Mrs. Catherine Breshkovsky. the aged
revolutionist. Writing to Miss Helena
S. Dudley, she says:
ut goes better and better. The
peasants are strong and well disposed
always ready to do their best. The
army, too. for it is composed OF peas
ants boys. There are some people
who have imbedded foreign ideas from
Germany but they are few and all the
tempest they have awakened in the
capital will disappear. Such great
revolution as we have here cannot be
carried through without some trouble
1--WE women have all the rights we
wanted, quite such as the men. The
program Is broad enough to make the
people happy for centuries. Yet we
must work as never before, and the
work would not be so hard II there
were more persons Of experience"
In a letter to Miss Alice Stone Black
well, Mrs. Breshkovsky writes:
81 am making tour Of our large
country to see and to speak. The long
years of suffering have had their re-
suit. Friendship is spread everywhere.
Frenchmen and Enslishmen wonder to
see the solidarity Of such a large
country with SO many different
nationalities."
