LIFT YOUR C0RNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
How to loosen tender corn
or calIus so il lifts out
without pain.

Let folks step on your feet hereafter;
wear shoes a size smaller f you like,
for corns will never again send electric
sparks of pain through you, according
to this Cincinnati authority.
He says that a few drops of a drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn, instantly re-
lieves soreness, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or callus without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
A small bottle of freezone obtained
at anv drug store will cost very little
but will positively remove every hard
or soft corn or callus from ones feet.
If your druggist hasn't stocked TINS
new drug yet, tell him to get smail
bottle of freezone for you from MS
wholesale drug house.-adv.

New Cutting Agent.

In the recent evolution of new al
lows, it is interesting to note that steel
is surpassed as cutting agent by
metal containing no iron, though this
element has been since the bronze age
the basis of practically all working
tools. The ''stellite" of Elwood Haynes
claims not only the durable hardness
at high temperature that gives 1T
greater results than "high-speed steeP'
in lathe work, but it's resistance to
tarnish is an added property especial
~ fitting it for ordinary cutlery. Its
beautiful color and polish are said to
be quite unaffected by atmospheric
conditions or acid fruits. Of its devel-
opment, Mr.. Haynes says that when
molybdenum is added to an alloy OF
cobalt with Is per cent of chromium,
the hardness gradually increases until
the molybdenum reaches 40 per cent,
when the product is exceedingly hard
and brittle, cutting deeply into glass
and easily scratching quartz. Taking
a fine polish, it is SO hard as to escape
ordinary scratching. With % per cent
of molybdenum, the resulting metal is
fine grained, scratches glass readily,
and takes strong, keen edge. The
alloy is too hard for forging, bat 1t
can be cast without dif6su2ty.

is CURIOUS ROCK DWELLER
PhoIas, or Boring Clam, One of the
Straneest Creatures That Are
Known to Science.

One of the strangest creatures known
to science is the pholas, or boring clam.
When still very minute the animal
bores into the sandstone lodges at ex-
IRENE low water, by means of its sharp
shell, which is replaced by secretions
as it is worn away. 1t penetrates the
rock to a depth of six or eight inches,
and hollows out its burrow as it in
creases in size.
Shaped roughly like top, it could
not leave it's rock dwelling even if it
wished to DO so. For food, it depends
on the animalcules that float in sea
water, which it seizes by its long 81
phon, or tongue.
The pholas is in great demand at the
seaside resorts along the Pacific coast,
for its meat is very tender and makes
excellent soup. The clans are dis
lodged in great numbers from the lodges
by the use of dynamite, although it is
possible to obtain them with pick or
crowbar.

; SELF HELPS for the
NEW SOLDIER

By United States Army Officer
THE CHARGE.

If a company is advancing to the
firing line by rushes, the captain may
increase or decrease the size of the
fractions he sends forward, as he sees
fit, in order to complete or retard the
movement. When the company forms
but one unit of the firing line, it may
be sent forward by rush of the whole
just as the platoon may be similarly
advanced. The captain leads the rush
of the company, and platoon leaders
run at full speed at the head of their
respective platoons. Platoon guides
follow the line to insure prompt and
orderly execution of the advance, that
is, to prevent struggling or sagging
OF the front.
The advance is not limited, however,
to the methods described, as has al
ready been explained. Any method
may be employed which successfully
brings the attack closer to the enemy.
Crawling, especially in surprise attacks,
may be the most practicable and eff
fective method to be pursued.
1t should be repeated here, as in the
first lesson in extended order drill,
that the use Of the rifle is here as
suned. AT all events, the framework
learned with broomstickS while there
is no method Of learning the rifle itself,
even to the fixing of the bayonet, with
out a rifle in hand.
But no consideration of extended or
Ger, combat exercise or skirmishing,
would be complete without the charge.
Even on an armory floor, extended or
der drill is usually finished off with a
charge, in order to inject something of
the supremely exciting element of bat
tie into what might otherwise become
mechanical plodding.
The charge is a rush-an eruption
into which all the pent-up mental and
emotional intensity of a battle may
have an outlet. That, to be sure, is not
the purpose of the charge, which is to
eXpel an enemy from a given position,
but it does become a vent for the other
wise suppressed excitement of battle,
and to that extent gathers in violence.
Because this outburst contributes to
the force of the charge general shout
is important.
The signal for the charge, sounded
from the post of the commanding Off
Ger, is repeated by the musicians of
all parts of the line. The company Of
ficers, both the captains and lieuten-
ants, lead the charge-the time has
now passed for direction and control
and the necessities call for sheer lead
ership. Therefore the officers precede
their men, encountering the danger
first. The skirmishers, with fixed bayo-
nets, spring forward together-shout-
ing-and close with the enemy.

THE PATROL.

The patrol IS perhaps the most re-
sponsible and important work upon
which an enlisted man may be en-
gagged. The patrol represents the eyes
of the unit-eyesx like those of crabs,
thrust out on long feelers, so to speak,
but which are still in contact with the
main force and can be withdrawn to
it. The use Of patrol is threefold:
1t is detachment sent out from
command to gain information of the
country or of the enemy; to prevent
the enemy from gaining information;
or to provide the necessary security
against surprise.
An erroneous impression prevails in
uniformed quarters that the use of
the airplane on the great scale now
witnessed in Europe has dispensed
with old methods of foot patrol. This
is not the case. To be sure, there is no
patroling in trench warfare, in the for
mer sense, except, perhaps, in night
raids; but in all mobile operations, to
which the warfare on the western front
Is now reverting, the principle of the
patrol is indispensable.
The reason that the airplane cannot
substitute for the foot patrol is that the
airplane is seldom able to distinguish
a command behind cover or in the shell
ter of a forest. This fact is so well
established that artillery positions
have been covered with bushes and
trees and the guns themselves are
painted a notified green which deceives
the birdmen. There is an Infinite
amount of careful cropping out and de-
tailed observation left over for foot
patrols, after the airplane has passed
over. 1t is not necessary, in these
articles, to consider cavalry patrol.
AS for the matter of surprise, even
units as small as a company, when on
the firing line, must be well protected
by patrols on each flank. Each leader
of a flank platoon details man TO
watch for the signals of the patrol or
patrols on his flank. Patrols or parties
posted to prevent hostile reconna1s-
sance should relieve the main body of
the necessity of betraying its position
by firing on small bodies of the enemy.
"To be surprised by an enemy at
short range" says the drill regulations,
"is an objectionable offense."
Therefore, reconnaissance is kept up
throughout an action and it is the i'm
portant duty of combat patrols TO give
security to exposed TANKS. Whether
or not the patrol is able to stop hos
tile reconnaissance or even an attack,
1t must at all hazards convey warning
of the enemy's approach to the main
if caught by fire on the flank.
body. This is the more essential De
cause, while the firing line is obligated
to take care of it's own front, its TANKS
are particularly vulnerable to modern
firearms.
For example, machine gun. raking

might exterminate the entire command.
