LIFT YOUR CORNS
 OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen a tender corn or caIIus so it lifts out
 without pain.

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison arc now told by Cincinnati authority to use drug called freezone, which the moment few drops are applied to any corn or calls the soreness is re- lievcd and soon the entire corn or cal lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin gers
 Freezone dries the moment it is ap- piled, and simply shrivels the corn or cal lus without infiaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin. A small bottle of frcczone will cost very little at any of the drug stores, but will posi- lively rid ones feet of every hard or soft corn or hardened callus. If your druggist hasn't any freezone he can get it at any wholesale drug house for you.

BIC ITALIAN NEED
WHEAT AND CORN
Red Cross Relief Director De-
CIareS Refugees Will be in
Want All Winter.

ROME, Dec 22.-"One OF the
very greatest services that could
be rendered 10 Italy now would
be the sending over of large
quantities OF wheat and also corn
meal" said Ernest P. BickneIl, di-
rector OF civilian relief of the Red
Cross, who has just completed an
executive investigation of Italy's
refugee problem.
"Italy's wheat shortage is known
in the United States, but it is not
known how entirely her population,
both soldiers and civilians, depends
on bread as the principal food. 1
visited every section Of Italy and
everywhere was told that the first
need was bread, with war munitions
second. Also it must be understood
that wheat and not white flour is re-
quired. since the Italians are accus-
toned to baking whole wheat bread
except in certain parts OF the north,
where cornmeaI is used.
THE refugees problem will re-
main acute all this winter. 1t now
is a question of helping TO obtain
work to make them self-supporting
and to see that the family life is
not destroyed. Venice offers the
first example to all Europe of a
scientific handling Of refugees by
removing families slowly, but en-
tirely and taking along their work
ing tools. Thus the manufacture Of
Venetian lace now is being carried
on at Rimini as it was in Venice,
and the same condition applies 70
the tobacco and leather factories.
at was due partly TO the efforts
of American Consul Carroll, at Ven
ice, that the refugee movement 10
the new homes was successful. The
Red Cross also contributed TO this
result by establishing a hospital at
Rimini."

Bolsheviki Loses
Ground; Ukraine
Defies Trotsky

apparently is maintaining its deter
mined stand toward the bolsheviki
government. 1t is reported that 1t
has converted its sympathies with
the movement of Gen. Kaledines.
the Cossack leader, into a definite
alliance.
Advices received from Russia are
to the effect that the bolsheviki

ultimatum sent another one, giving
the Ukraine a further 4S hours in
which to reconsider its refusal 70

fore the Cossacks entered the town
last Saturday. The red guards lost
500 men killed and 1000 wounded
in the fighting The Cossacks gave
short shrift 10 the red guards, whom
I they hate. The bolsheviki chiefs
fled from the town on board war
ships. The cruiser Kolchida
grounded in the river and was de-
stroyed by the COssack artillery.
There has been no important
lighting at Nakhitchevan, province
Of the Don. where the bolsheviki
troops have fraternized with the
; Cossacks. A clash has occurred be
tween the bolsheviki and Ukranians
at Bolgard, Bessarabia. The town
is on fire.
Some COssacks Dissatisfied.

! territory are dissa tisfied with their
leaders and are being won over by
tho propaganda of the extremists.
Combating reports II circulation
that the bolsheviki commissioners
