DON'T LET WIFE
DIE OF LOCKJAW
Warn her against cutting corns
because they can be
lifted out.

Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suffer
terribly from corns. Women then
proceed to trim these pests, seeking
relief, but they hardly realize the
terrible danger from infection, says
a Cincinnati authority.
Corns can easily be lifted out with
the fingers If you will get from any
drugstore a quarter of an ounce of a
drug called freezone. This is sufficient
to remove every hard or soft corn or
callus from ones feet You simply
apply a few drops directly upon the
tender, aching corn. The soreness is
relieved at once and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts out without
pain.
This is a sticky substance which
dries in a moment. 1t just shrivels
up the corn without infiaming or
even irritating the surrounding tissue
or skin. Cut this out and pin on
your wife's dresser.

on Present Day Subjects

America the festive day will probably

years: but in many other countries II
will he altogether different.
Today all Europe is suffering from
the effects of the most CHASTITY war the
world has ever seen. Homes and prop
erty have been destroyed: families
have been separated: sons. brothers
and husbands have. and still are, lay
ing down their lives; children have
been mutilated: and to add horror to
horror, these little tots are starving by
the hundreds. They are calling and
stretching out their thin. little hands
to our big. wealthy nation. Is Amer
lea going to fill these tiny hands with
food, or is she going to turn deaf ear
| to their cry
! Every citizen of this country can
! help to answer the call by little
| reasoning and economizing on the
Christmas gifts at home. We must not
give a present to eveR one with whom
we happen to have slight acquaint-
ance, nor must we give to be good
sport, or because of what the next door
neighbors will think. All this is nom
sense and extravaganza. The only ones
that really ought to get gifts are the
children, soldiers, and the poor. Don t
load your boys and girls down with
dozens of expensive, breakable toys
that will last only few days. Ii
isome feel as though they should give
| to their relatives or few friends, let
those gifts be inexpensive and useful
DO not give something that will be
kept on the table for IA day or two,
and then put in IA drawer to be for
gotten. The soldiers must receive pres
ents even though they are in a far-o off
land. Above all, we must not forget
those starving little children across the
sea. Let it not be said that America
is a rich, selfish nation that ignores
the plea of IL little child.
Americans, here Is your chance.
Prove yourselves friends of suffering
humanity! Give to these helpless
neighbOrs! Make Christmas reall,
worth while!
