Animal Trainers Win Fortunes.

Since the beginning Of time mankind
has been amused by attributing human
faculties to animals, and wherever one
Of the lower creatures has shown signs
Of Intelligence, public curiosity has run
high. We have long been familiar with
the elephant which stands on ball
and does similar feats; but the first
elephant to accomplish these things
was seven-days' wonder. One Of
the most unique novelties ever offered
to the public was the first batch Of
trained seals, brought out by Captain
Woodward. Their ability to play mu-
sical instruments, throw a ball about,
and so on. captured the fancy Of the
nation and made their owner rich.
Another novelty Of this kind brought
wealth to Leoni Clarke, who taught
a cat to 60 up in balloon and de-
scend by q parachute.

Cincinnati man tells how to shrivel
up corns or calluses so they
lift off with fingers

Ouch -! !?!? 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 few drops Of a drug called
freezone when applied to a tender,
aching corn or hardened callus
stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn or callus dries up and lifts
right off without pain.
He says freezone dries immediate-
ly and never inflames Of even irri-
tates the surrounding skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very
little at any drug store, but will pos
itively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. Mil
lions of American women will well
come this announcement since the
Inauguration of the high heels. If
your druggi.t doesn't have freezone
tell him to order a small bottle for
you.

MORGAN CITY FIRM BRINGS FURTHER RECOGNITION
THIS WAY BY SECURING GOVERNMENT CONTRACT

Morgan City again gains pronii-
nence through the enterprise Of her
business men. The Waddell-Jones
Lumber Cmpany has contracted to
furnish knees from the live oak trees
which abound in this territory to be
used in the building of the wooden
ships being contracted for by the
Emergency Fleet Corporation. Mr..
Z. +. Jones, president and general
manager of the contracting firm has
already completed all arrangements
for the carrying on of this work and
will begin Immediately on his part in
supplying the nation with tonnage to
counteract the depredations of the
enemy submarines. About fifteen
additional woodsmen will be employ
ed by Mr.. Jones to get out the live
oak knees and the work. if found to
be practical from all standpoints, will
be demanded for years to come The
live oak supply in the Atchafalaya
BASIN is practically inexhaustible and
from this vast source the knees for
the wooden ships will be derived.

ficer, Mr.. R. G. Johnson, issued a
statement to all lumbermen in the
Atchafalaya Basin asking them to as

would be highly patriotic act and
that all such material should be Of

territory in order to facilitate the
work. These knees are essential to
the shipbuilding program and there
is pressing demand for them which
will necessitate haste in their de-
livery.
Mr.. Jones has arranged with the

We have also had the War of 1872
The latter was distinctly unpopular
above all, where most felt, as on
the seaboard. In that war the good
old New England island Of Nan
tucket, where Benjamin Franklin's
mother and the whaling captains
hailed from, actually tried to main
tain it's neutrality as between the
United States and his Majesty's Gov
ernment. The Mexican War, too,
was roundly denounced by New Eng
land statesmen. Even the Spanish
American jaunt was bitterly oppos-
ed. Perhaps our pacifist and pro-
German friends who have made the
startling discovery that this war is
unpopular" have been thinking of
the War of Secession as great hit
with the average member of the pub
lie, and, specifically, with men
drafted for compulsory service?
