SAYS THE DRUG IS
 AN ETHER COMPOUND
Just few drops loosens any corn
 so it lifts out with out pain. m

You simply say to the drug store man, Give me quarter of an ounce of freezone." This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn from ones feet.
 few drops applied directly upon a tender aching corn should relieve the soreness instantly, and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted out with the fingers without pain.
 This neH way to rid ones feet of corns was introduced by a Cincinnati man, who says that while freezone is sticky it dries in moment, and seems to simply shrivel up the corn without inf1aming or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin.
 Don't let father die of infection or lockjaw from whiting at his corns, bus cut this out and make him try it

Look young! Nobody can tell if you use Grandmother's simple recipe
 of Sage Tea and Sulphur. G

Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compound- ed, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and trouble-.. some. Nowadays. by asking at any drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sul- phur Compound" you will get a large bottle of this famous old recipe, im- proved by the addition of other ingre- dients, for about 50 cents
 Don't stay gray! Try it! No one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair. as 1t does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen sponge or. soft brush with it and draw thiSs through your hair. taking onef small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears and after another ap- plication or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, glossy and attrac- tive.
 Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com round is delightful toilet requisite for those who desire dark hair. and a youthful appearance. 1t is not in tended for the cure, mitigation or pre- vention of disease.

STONES AND FISTS
 FIGURE IN FIGHT
Man Who Throws Rocks
 Coward, Says Prisoner

"The person who throws stones in is a coward while the use of fists shows the real American citizen" explained Albert Wohinz of 197 North street to Judge John Fl. Kirkham in police court today when arraigned for assault upon Gustave Holtzman of
 $50 Arch street Tuesday afternoon. Wohinz claimed that the fight started after Holtzman hit him in the back of the head with well-aimed stone of substantial size. He admitted that he got after Wohinz and showed him what fists are made for. For this he was fined $5 and costs. After ad- journment of court he expressed the regret that he did not punish Holtz- man more and give him real beat ing
 Wohinz's declaration as to his idea of citizenship, lengthy and dramatic ally given, furnished much amuse- ment for court officials as did his victims explanation of his experience with a preliminary inquiry of Judge Kirkham as to his ability to speak Dutch" He was told by Prosecutor George w. Klett not to bother about ability to speak Dutch" but tell about the trouble in English. Holtz- man said the whole trouble started in an Arch street saloon Saturday night when he advised Wohinz to go home and take care of those de- pendant upon him. He said that Tuesday the two clashed and Wohinz blackcned his eye, punched him many times in the face and kicked him. He thought it was no act of a gentleman.
 Assault charges against Edward J. Wohinz, also of 197 North street, brother of Albert. were no1led by Prosecutor Klett after he was freed from all responsibility by both AL bert and Holtzman. Albert objected to having his brother called as wit ness in his behalf, explaining that he was his brother and naturally would favor the accused. Later he agreed to having him called
 Later there was an illustration of brotherly affection between the broth CTS as to who should pay the fine. Albert insisted saving that he had had .he pleasure of punishing Holtzman, had the money handy and insisted lpon paying for the pleasure.
 The comedy was continued in the obby at headquarters when Edward J. appeared anxious and inquiry re- ative to the bail posted by their mother when they were arrested. He was assured by Albert that the money was as safe as If it was in a bank and could be got at any time. Don't worry about it" he counseled his brother and then commented that he wished he had given Holtznlan a little more puniShment aI
