Whereas the success of the iLiberty Loan is so vital to the tNation that it is the first duty of every citizen to support to the utmost the financial measures es- issential to the effective and suc- scessful prosecution of the war sand the observance of Liberty sDay by the people of all the sStates and Territories of the Union should immeasureably sstimulate the sale of Liberty Bonds the subscriptions to which swill close October 27, 1917.

<" You Are
 Not Worth
 Fighting For"
McAdoo Tells President of National Farmers Congress
 Who Refused to Cooperate in Sale of Liberty Bonds.

San Francisco.-There is one man in the United States who is not expected to assist the gov ernment in floating the Second Liberty Loan of 1917.' He is Dr. H. E. Stockbridge of Allan. ta, Georgia and the hands otf'' suggestion was made to him by Secretary of the Treasury, Will liam c. McAdoo, following the announcement of Dr. Stock bridges opposition to the loan based on his objection to pending postal legislation. You are not worth fighting for' says Secre- tary McAdoo in a telegram to the Georgian.
 Secretary McAdoo on Septem- Der P telegraphed Dr. Stock bridge asking that as president of the Farmers National con- gress, the Atlanta man commun- icate with the executive heads of of other Farmers organizations to ask their cooperation in the coming loan. in replying Dr.. i Stockbridge accused the Secre- tary and the administration of favoring the Mckeller amend ment providing for an increase of second-rate postage rates, We refuse to become a party to the crime" is the closing state ment of Dr. Stockbridge's tele- gram.
 Secretary McAdoo's telegram in reply follows:
 Your telegram received. 1 understand your position to be that you will not assist the Gov ernment in selling the next Lib- erty Loan on the ground that the administration and 1 personally are supposed to favor the Me Keller amendment. or the pro- posed increase in postal rates on second class mail matter which includes farm and other publica- tions. As a matter of fact am not in sympathy with this legis- lation and have said that 1 thought it had no place in the revenue bill, that this was an inoportlne time to raise the issue and that it ought to be considered upon it's merits in connection with postoffice legislation and not with revenue or Treasury mat terS.
 But even if favored it, is that a reason why you should be unwilling to buy or assist in sell ing United States Government bonds. Is that a reason why you should refuse to lend money to your Government to enable it to supply the gallant sons of farm CTS and every other class of Am erican citizens who have been drafted or who have volunteered to give their lives to protect your liberty and property tn e necessary guns with which to fight; the necessary clothing and food to support them in the field; the necessary life insurance and means to support their dependent families while they are at the front?
 Have you a son who has vol unteered or who has been drafted into this noble servlce? If so, would you fail to buy a Liberty Bond to help him fight and to save his country and to protect his own life because the rates on second class mail matter may be increased? If you haven't son you cannot feel what every mother and father of gallant boy must feel when they see that boy go out to fight for his coun- try.

NO TRICK TO LIFT
 A CORN RIGHT OUT
Says there -is no excuse for cut ting cOFns and inviting
 lockjaw.

Sore corns, hard corns soft corns or any kind of a corn can harmlessly be lifted right out with the fingers if you will apply. directly upon the corn a few drops of freezone. says g Cincin- natl authority.
 It is claimed that at small cost one can get a quarter of an ounce of freez- one at any drug store, which is sum- cient to rid one's feet of every corn or callous without pain or soreness or the danger of infection.
 This simple drug. while sticky, dries the moment 1t is applied and does not inffame or even irritate the surround ing tissue.
 This announcement will interest many women hero, for it is said that the present high-heel footwear is put ting corns on practically every wo- mans feet.

And 1t is dogs that are the subject of a raft of complaints to policemen and Dog Warden John Coney. All be- cause of the muzzling law and the proclivities of dogs to wander away from their home hearthstone.
