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

Ouch ! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town ii
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that few drops
OF 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
of without pain
He says freezone dries Immediately
and never intlames 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

SEVEN BILLIONS OF DOL
LARS.

Seven Billions of Dollars
Think Of this. and most Of it to be
spent in the next few months, and
every dollar here at home-not a
dollar, most likely, will leave our
country. 1T is the purpose OF
loan about half Of this money to
our AlieS-eXtend to them this
amount of credit to buy our mer-
chandise of various sorts, and the
consumption of similar commodl-
ties.
81 OOO,OOO,0O0! Behold that
string of ciphers. There are so
manv-nine of them that mean
hut little unless reduced to more
familiar objects. 1t may be OF
interest it can do none of us any
harm-to look into and try to com
prehend what seven billions OF
dollars really means.
Twenty times the cost Of the
Panama Canal! Three hundred
and fifty times the most of the
biggest battleship ahoatl Eight
times the assessed valuation of the
CITY of St. Louis.
There are more dollars IN seven
billions than there are second III
222 years. Since the signing OF
the Declaration of Independence,
July 4th, 1776, to date, there are
only AZ billion seconds.
Seven billions in gold coin is
13,44O tons and would load down
NEARLY ] 200 cars, each with "a
600 pounds, and make solid ,
train thirteen miles long!
Let us look at it in time. or in
distance.
Seven million minutes is 1898 |
years, 9 hours and 50 minutes!
Imagine seven billions of miles
A rifle bullet has speed of about |
half a mile a second. yet at this
great velocity it would require al
most exactly 444 years to cover
the distance!
Seven billions of silver dollars
stacked in a pile would 90 up to-
ward the stars to a distance of
1,736 miles! And it would take
the United States mint, working
day and night, 224 years to coin
the dollar!
At five dollars an acre, this vast
sum would pay for every acre Of
land in the Continental United
States.
Imagine. if you can, seven bill
lions of dollars in dollar "green
backs" end to e,,c-they would
go around the earth at the equa-
tor nearly "a times and it would
take an express train running for
tv miles an hour, day and night,
continuously, for two and one-half
years, TO cover the distance!
Seven billion of dollars will buy
