by the Ladies Aid Society of the
Presbyterian church. at the home
of Mrs. ID. ]. Edwards. in honor
OF Mrs. T, ]. Howard. who leaves

tiful in its lavish decorations OF
crimson ramblers and pot plants.
Covers were laid for eighteen at
the beautifully decorated tables,
which fairly groaned with all the
good things of the season, which

LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply few drops then lift corns or

Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
a trife, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. Instantly
the soreness disappears and shortly the
corn or callus will loosen and can be
lifted off with the fingers
This drug freezone doesn't eat out the

Mr.. Glads1n Said: there may be
individual Socialists In sympathy

vote with those people, but as a

II was suggested to Mr.. Gladson
that the l. W. w. Is charged with

the organization seems to be class

Blue II q comparatively rare color
among our cultivated plants, and for
that reason the delphinium, which
shows this color in great variety. ID
particularly valuable. The brilliant
fi0wer-spikes can be e from a dis.
lance and r strikingly effective In
beds or masses, In borders, shrub
berries, or In combination with white
lilies or other plants where q high con-
trast Is desirable. The tall sorts
should be planted among shrubbery or
used as a background for other low.
growing plants whose bloom will pro.
duce a pleasing contrast with tho
larkspur. The dwarf types are better
suited for bedding and for low borders.
improvements are continually being
made In the size of the flowers, %
well as In the length and fullness Of
the spikes. Some Of the species dow.
er both early and late, and the season
for all a be prolonged by care In
cutting away withered f~ower.stems a.
fast as they appear. The delphinium
is sometimes increased by division, but
like most other plants they are more
robust when grown from seed. This
plant is easily propagated and adapts
itself to many conditions, but In 4
