LIFT YOUR C0RNS
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
are now told by Cincinnati authority
to use drug called freezone, which
the moment few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re-
lieved 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
ius without infaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the drug stores, but viii 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.

APPRECIATION.

pensive efforts of the Enter
prise to keep them posted on
all matters of great Importance
connected with the selectlve
draft, which this paper has
done not only by the publica-
ton of an extra special four
page edition, but by publish
ing all other information the
public is entitled to receive,
together with the county news
and all the important war
news.
All this goes for one dollar
per year, which we are exact
ing in advance.
The appreciation of thepub-
lie of our special efforts is
shown by the large list of new
and renewal subscribers pub
lished weekly. There never
has been a time in the history
of this paper-not even dur
ing the most successful period
of our several very flourish
ing contests-when the Enter
prise enjoyed such a wonder
full growth in circulation as it
has for the past several
months, especially the past two
weeks. Since the first day Of
August there have been forty
new subscribers added to our
subscription list up to last Fri
day morning-more than an
an average of four per day.
Besides this there have been
more than 100 renewals dur
ing the same period.
Since last December we
have been demanding cash in
advance. A number got care
less during the busy work sea-
son and allowed their papers
to be stopped when their paid
up time expired, but during
the past few weeks, since
events have been transpiring
so rapidly, when there has been
so much of interest to the pub
lie, nearly all of them have
been reinstalled in full fellow
ship.

mined to keep the public thor

involved.
