Jean Thayer having for the past ten
years earned her living in Office posi-
lions, and the occasional acceptance of
a story at very small pay, and with
long intervals between the checks, was
very glad to find herself in a position
with better pay, shorter hours, and
some promise Of permanency. Like
many other women not trained to any
trade or profession. when she found
herself thrown on her own resources 1t
was case Of experimenting to see
what she could do, and like many more
women who have not the faith in them
selves that moves mountains, her ex-
periments had not met with much sue
cess.
When Peter Shields had asked her
TO be his private secretary she had at
once accepted the offer. He was the
senior member Of a publishing firm,
and had begun to withdraw from an &C.
tive participation in the business. He
came down to the Office for an hour or
two, sometimes only three or four
times week. He was a collector of
autograph letters and manuscripts, and
was becoming more and more devoted
to his hobby. Jean working in the Of
fee as a stenographer had attracted
his attention. She was not "girlie"
with very short skirts, very high heels,
and wildly tinted cheeks and lips, and
she attended to her work without side

YES! MAGICALLY!
C0RMS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You simply say to the drug store
man, Give me quarter of an ounce
of freezone." This VIII cost very
little but is sufficient to remove ev-
cry hard or soft corn from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether com
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn should relieve the sore
ness instantly, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted out with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet Of
corns was introduced by : Cincin-
natl man, who says that, while free
zone is sticky, it dries in moment
and simply shrivels up the corn with
out .inflap1ing or even irritating the
srh'roppdiRg tissue or skin.
Don't let father die of infection OF
lockiaw from whiting at his corns
but clip this out and make him try it

ment at the Bonita tomorrow.
The bad man here is most likable
young chap, whose depredations take
eccentric channels. For instance, he
holds up the Pacific Limited, and
robs the conductor of his ticket punch.
Again, he holds up the town grocer
and robs him of quantities of food
which he bestows upon a friendless
little orphan who lives on the out
skirts of civilization.

Little Gwendolyn was rich, yet
poor; she lived in mansion, yet
she had no one to play with. Many
daughters of wealthy parents find
themselves in the same position as
Gwendolyn, in Mary Picl1ford's new
Aircraft picture, "A Poor Little Rich
Girl" at the Isis theatre soon. The
picture teaches a moral that both
young and old alike should learn.

TERSELY TOLD

Special rates have been arranged
for the International Association of
Rotary Clubs convention in Atlanta
on June II to 81, inclusive, and an
nouncement was made yesterday by
the L. & N. The rates for the round
trip are slightly in excess of the
regular trip one way, and It IS pos
sible that many members of the local
club will take advantage and attend
the convention.
On account of the Florida State
Good Roads convention to be held in
Tallahassee on April II and II special
round trip rates have been announced
by the L. &, n. railroad for a slight
amount above the regular fare one
way. Tickets will be placed on sale
April 10, which will be good until the
fourteenth. Great interest is being
shown throughout the state in the
convention and it is probable that
numbers from Pensacola and West
Florida will attend.

Many Dramatic Scenes in THE

There are some large and exciting
scenes in 'eThe Darling of Paris"
showing at the Isis today. There are
more than a thousand people shown
in some of them. This production
will go down to history as one of the

JUDGE WINSLOW'S PATRIOTIC
WORDS

From an address delivered by Chief
Justice Winslow at the Hoover picnic
at Madison: That starry banner that
floats so majestically above our heads is
your flag and my flag. 1t is the flag of
more than 100,OO0,000 free people.
There are sacred memories in every
fold; the blood of patriots has conse-
Grated every stripe and every star. 1t
has been borne on many battlefelds,
but always on the side of human free
dom, always in defense of the people to
govern themselves, and-please God-it
always will be.
1t is our privilege and our duty to
honor, love, and revere it; to be loyal
to it in thought, word, and deed, now
and always; and to give our lives for it
if need be, because it represents the
best and noblest ideals of human life
and government.

Kind Word from O. c. Smith.

The editor Of The Democrat is much
please to receive from Chicago, under
date of August %, kind letter from
o. G. Smith, the man who wrote for
us, in right good verse, a ringing,
patriotic address which, as carrier
boy, we circulated January 1, 1868. He
says:
I" The Democrat affords me much pleas
ure; and hope that you will long live
to breathe the loyal spirit of universal
democracy through it's columns"
Mr. Smith was clear and ready
writer in prose and verse, with strong
vein of rich humor; and his work was
highly appreciated by many readers.
Now, in his eighty fifth year, he can
still turn out good, clear copy. The
Democrat hopes that the spirit moves
him to send us some of his original
stuff, which was always good.

FROM JOHN HANSC0M IN FRANCE

A neighbor of The Democrat recently
received the following letter from John
Hanscom Of Mineral Point, who is with
the u. S. ambulance service in France:
Though there is plenty of war around me, my
present post is comparatively quiet and I am
going to try and write few short notes. This
is my second time at the front The first for a
period of three weeks and now for month, but
have seen enough to last me the rest of my
life. At present we are fairly we'll fixed, not
too many wounded and short hauls. Most of
the driving is at night and of course with no
lights. But it might be great deal worse. The
French treat US wonderfully we'll. We have
fine food even at the front and as long as some
thing doesn't hit you everything is nice.
You would know be interested in the aero
plane fighting over here. 1t certainly is won
derful. One lone Frenchman dropped two
Bosch on the hill directly in front of the post
the other day and got away without scratch.
Well, must stop. Best regards to all my
friends. JOHN.

NAN BELIEVED DEAD
SPO|LS OWN FUNERAL
Appears at MOrgue and Denies
Body is His.
MILWAUKEE,, Aug. %.

Henry H. Phil, 943 Winchester
street, called at the Milwaukee
morgue to make perfectly plain that
a mangled corpse on one of the slabs
in that grim house Of death is not the
body in which he has lived and had
his being.
II came to identify what are said
to be my own remains" he said. 'Sor-
ry to disappoint my good friends, but
you'll have to call the funeral off. re-
fuse to go on with it."
The similarity in the names and
physical description, red moustache
and the coincidental disappearance Of
the living man caused the false identi-
fication. Mr.. Phil is quoting Mark
Twain to the effect that reports re-
garding his death were very much ex.
aggerated." The body of the train VIC
tim is still unidentified.
