How TO loosen a tender corn

sparks Of pain through you, according
TO this Cincinnati authority.
He says that few drops Of a drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
q tender, aching corn, instantly re-
lieves soreness, and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or callus without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
A small bottle Of freezone obtained
at any drug store will cost very little
but will positively remove every hard
or soft corn or callus from ones feet.

new drug yet. tell him to get a small
bottle Of freezone for you from his

lie Preservers Improved.

Submarine warfare has resulted in
numerous improvements in life pre-
servers and the buoys. The passen-
gers on any ship that sails the Allan
tic today are likely to find themselves
bobbing about in the icy water with
no support but a cork jacket. Some
time ago a number of sailors on a
torpedoed ship saved their lives at
night by signaling to the rescuers
with little electric fash lamps. This
principle has now been Incorporated
into the latest life buoy by an at
tachment which carries electric flash
lamps as a part of its eqipment. The
lamps burn steadily as soon as the
buoy hits the water. and serve to in
dictate the position of the person sup
ported to any boat that may be search

Died of Premature Old Age

How many times we hear of COM
paratively young persons passing away
when they should have lived to be 40
or 80 years Of age. This fatal work is
usually attributed to the kidneys, as,
when the kidneys degenerate, it causes
auto-intoxication. The more inJuri-
Gus the poisons passing thru the kid
neys the quicker will those noble or
gans be degenarated, and the sooner
they decay.
It Is thus the wisest policy, to pre-
rent premature old age and promote
long life, to tighten the work Of the
kidneys. This can be done by drink
Ing plenty IF pure water all day long,
and occasionally taking Anuric. double
strength, before meals. This can be
obtained at almost any drug store. You
will find Anuric more potent than lithia
for il dissolves uric acid as water does
sugar.
