Ouch ? ? ! This kind of rough talk will be heard less here nj town if people troubled with corhs will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few drops of a drug called freezone when applied to a tender, aching corn or hardened cal Jus stops soreness at once, and soon the corn or callus dries up and lifts right off without pain. /
 He says freezone dries immedi- ately and never inflaThes or even irritates the surrounding skin. A small bottle of fre9zone will cost very little at any /drug store, but will positively F@hove every hard or soft corn orN callus from ones feet. Millions of American women will welcome this announcement since the inauguration of the high heels. If your druggist doesn't have freezone tell him to order a small bottle for you. *tf

MOTHER OF Il SAYS
 LIFE WAS A BURDEN
Mrs. Dora Upchurch Says She Suffered From One Days End to Another.

"I believe this medicine has kept me out of the grave, for to tell you the plain truth I don't see how I could have lived much longer" said Mrs Dora Upchurch, 345 Wylie |street, Atlanta. Mrs. Upchurch is the mother of eleven children, and is one of the best known and most highly respected women of Atlanta.
 "I had indigestion of the worst kind" she continued, "but for nearly a year I suffered more from rheumatism than anything else. also suffered from femal troubles, and all these troubles together just pulled me down until l was get ting so I could hardly. go at all. To tell you the truth, my life was al most a burden.
 'I couldn't eat anything hardly without suffering afterwards, and always after eating l would have a full, uncomfortable feeling. At times I would have dizzy spells and would get so blind I could hardly stand on my feet without danger of falling. The rheumatism would hurt me so bad I couldn't sleep at night, and it just seemed like was in some kind of pain from one [ days end to another. I felt tired and worn out and unfit for work and couldn't take interest in any thing on account of my condition No kind of medicine seemed to dc me any good and I lost weight and strength continually.
 '"This is just the condition I was in when my husband got me to try Tanlac He said he was sure il would help me, because it had done so much good for him. I hadn't been taking it any time hardly un til I could see all the difference il the world in Emy feelingss I act ually gained ten pounds on tho the first three bottles land had tc have my cloth hes let<out because they were getti ing too tight for me
 'The rheumatisf pains have lef me almost entirely and I sleep fint at night. My appetite is good, too and I can eat anything 1 want ant as much as l want and have nc more trouble with indigestion. It'' simply wonderful what this medi cine has done for me, and l jus don't know what l would have done without it. I wish could tel everybody in town about it.'

INDIAN REGIMENTS
 FOR BORDER DUTY

Washington, May 26.-A force of American Indians, consisting of 10 or more regiments of cavalry to guard the Mexican border while other clements of the regular army are participating in the European war, was advocated by Dr. Joseph Kossuth Dixon of Philadelphia, who lectured here under the auspices of the National Press Club.
 Dr. Dixon pointed to the fact that a bill to accomplish this pur- pose is now pending before con gress. He asserted that the Indian has those most vital dement's in the making of a soldier-the abili- ty to shoot and knowledge of how to live in the open. He declared that the Indian is capable, adapta- ble and available" The speaker added that the government in the past has used the Indian of the border to hunt down renegades of his own race. He urged that the Legislation providing for a North American Indian cavalry be passed and this resource of the nation used in the most effective way.

In this connection Dr. Dixon ad- vocated citizenship as the privilege most vital to the development Of the Indian and proposed that such citizenship be made a part of the 1 governments acceptance of the In dian into the army. Dr. Dixon re- amaker historical expedition to the North American Indian, in the course of which he travelled 0,000 miles, visiting every tribe in the United States, taking 10 miles of moving picture film of an educa- tional and historical character, as well as many wonderful still pie lures, many of which were shown here. The expedition had the full approval of the United States gov ernment.
 Some people," said Dr. Dixon, "have decried the savagery of the American Indian. That savagery was as nothing compared to what the Germans have done in Belgium and elsewhere during the present war.
 "The United States has been spending a lot of money in train ing and educating the Indian-al- most $3,500,0OO a few years ago, as compared with $1,250,OOO in the same year on the training of cadets at West Point. Why not utilize the services of the Indian in the way they can be most valuable to the United States, and that is by letting them see service in terri tory where they are familiar with the conditions and where they would be right at home, namely, on the Mexican border?"
 "One of the tragedies of this nations development said the speaker, lis the persistent and pitt less extinction of race of men who were once kings. The North American Indian today seems to be near the end of the trail. We are witnessing the vanishing of great race, full of integrity and promise. Can the congress and people of the United States satisfy their sense of justice and fair play with anything less than giving this dying race their rights and prerogatives of cit izenship?"

Tax Burdens.

In discussing taxes in the city
of Columbus, the Ohio State Jour
nal protests against any increase
of the burdens in time of war. 1t
says; Additional taxes for any
purpose is going to be very un-
popular with the people this year,
Their burdens resulting from the
war and all the demands inciden-
tai thereto ought to be sufficient
to influence public authority to
keep down the rate, and postpone
even many needs until the war
carnage and bloodshed are past.
That conflict is big enough for the
people to handle without resort
ing to things that may be defer
red"
The administration of Governor
Cox failed in a patriotic duty to
| the people when the legislature
created new jobs, increased the
salaries Of many high priced po.
sitions, and spent the money of
the taxpayers in a WaSteful and
eXtravagant manner. The war
was or long before the legisla-
ture adjourned and, instead of in,
creasing the annual expenditures
by millions, there should have
been some Tightening of the bur-
dens. In view Of the enormous
national taxes that must of ne
cessity come upon the people, and
which they are periodically will
ing to bear, the state burdens
should have been diminished.
The Cox administration was re-
sponsible for a great wrong when
it disregarded all pretense of e.
economy with the shadow of enor-
nous war taxes already impcnd-
ing.

from their net earnings a sum
sufficient to liquidatc any debt

are up for taxation. The amend
ment was unceremonloUsly re-
jected.
