SAYS R. R. COMMISSION
 NOT SHORN OF POWERS

Little Rock, Sept 7.-Gen. E. B. Trustworthy, general counsel for the Missouri Pacific Railway in Arkansas, does not agree with the people of Ar kansas who declare that the Arkansas Railroad Commission is a powerless body. and might well be abolished.
 "The Arkansas Railroad Commits sion has many powers, and the rail roads cannot successfully contest them" says Gen. Trustworthy. ''It is true that we have gone into federal court and enjoined the commission from enforcing certain rates, but only where the commission or the legisla- ture undertook to abridge the consti- tuition.
 "The commission can order train service, depots, bridges, additional tracks and rates The railroad was recently permitted by the federal court to take off some trains, but that was war emergency. The Railroad Commission has forced our road to do many things. and has the supreme court behind it in similar cases in the future. The Railroad Commission lacks q whole tot of being shorn of it's power, and anyone who doubts it has but to take look for himself, and he will soon be convinced"

WATERS WILL TELL PUBLIC
 RECIPE OF HASH, ETC

Little Rock, Sept. 7.-The waiter strike in Little Rock, while not ser iously inconveniencing any of the res taurants, threatens to assume an in- teresting position. The walters who are locked out insist they will give the public some insight into the restaur- ant business, the cost of food, the cost of operation, and the cost to the pub lie. They promise also to give the real recipe of restaurant hash and dishes which are served with heavy sauce. They also threaten to tell some interesting things about milk

York chapter of the Baseball Writers Association of America was a warn ing to managers and other emploves of the league that future occurrences in which the head of the league or the league is made the victim of an attack suspension for the rest of the season will be minimum punishment There IS at least one manager in the Ma tional League, and several players who never have had any hesitancv in showing some contempt for the way things have been done in the league. They doubtless will be curbed.
 It has been customary for baseball followers in the east to poke some fun at the National League, calling it grandmother and other similar names. They have been accustomed to point ing to the American League as the virile, czar-like exponent of capital punishment in the baseball world. The staggering punishment meted out to McGraw, however, is direct proof that the last days of President Tener in the older circuit are going to be favored with some distinctly czar- like actions.
 The edict absolved the baseball writers from any blame in connection with the episode that first resulted in a meeting of the directors and what amounted to formal apology from McGraw. He declared he did not make any such statements as those attributed to him, and left the writers to hold the sack.
 The incident was reopened at the request of the writers, and, while the last decision admits it was not proven McGraw actually attacked the presi- dent with the words attributed to him. he was fined and reprimanded for having allowed the interview to be printed when it would have been easy for him to suppress it.

THIS AND PIN
ON WIFE'S DRESSER
Cincinnati man tells how to shriveI
up corns or c~aIluses so they
lift off with fingers.

Ouch ma! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of a drug called freezone when applied
to a tender, aching corn or hardened cal
lus stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn or callus dries up and lifts right
off without pain.
He says freezone dries Immediately
and never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding skin. A small bottle of
freezone will cost very little at any
drug store, but will positively remove
every hard or soft corn or callus from
ones feet. Millions of American women
will welcome this announcement since
the Inauguration of the high heels. If
your druggist doesn't have freezone tell
him to order a small bottle for you.
