Ouch :! g? !? ? 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 q few drops of adrug called freezone when applied to q tender. aching corn or hardened cal Jus stops soreness lat once and upon the corn or calluss dries up and lifts right off without&pain.
 He says freezone dries immedi- ately and never infiames 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 cailus 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. @tf

In a spirit of eonciliation, he says, all the belligerents must sub init to accept the losses sustained, except in the matter of territory, and the pope declares that there must be no continuation of the war by an economic struggle for suprem- acy thereafter, which would be purely evil.
 On the question of the disposi- tion of occupied territory and the territorial ambitions of the bellig- erents, the pope, by way of preface, admits that special cases might jus tify special consideration and still be adjusted in conformity with the principles of equity and justice. But, as a general proposition, he feels that proper basis for discds- sion would be the restoration at once of all territory, including col onies, now in enemy occupation. That would involve liberation of Belgium, leaving not a trace of German control, political or mili- tary.

The more difficult question of Italia Iridentia, the pope thinks, should be examined in a spirit of cancellation and fairness and that a special consideration in the set tlement should be given to national aspirations.
 Likewise does the pope hold that the complex questions involved in readjustment of the Balkan states should be considered in the same spirit of equity and justice. He has especially in mind Armenia, the Bal kans and Poland, and the intima- tion conveyed is that these question: can safely be dealt with by direct diplomatic exchanges between the belligerents, once an agreement is reached upon the general principles of recognition of national aspira- tions and justice.

which President Wilson has declar- ed
 Among the popes proposals are reduction of armaments, freedom of the seas and that there shall be no retaliatory struggle after the war for world commercial supremacy These are regarded as the founda- tion stones of the popes plan.
 Included in the restoration of territory, the pope's proposals in sist, should be the return to Ger many of all her colonies, as well as the complete restoration of Belgium to her sovereignty.
 The pope's proposal declares that the injuries to all belligerents have been so great that there should be no thought of reparation except for the return of territory.
 The pope's proposal is quite long Although special efforts are being made to facilitate it's transmission to the United States, this may not be effected for day or two.
 BASIS FOR NEGOTIATION.
 Meanwhile, however, an accurate outline of the principal points of the proposal is ill the hands of the government and has received thoughtful consideration. In elo- quent language the pontiff describes the terrible conditions existing in Europe, which he declares is headed for destruction unless the bellig- erents cease a suicidal war. Such conditions, the pope feels, amply justify him in suggesting what may be, he hopes, at least a foundation upon which peace negotiations may be initiated.
 Pope Benedict's proposals are on- ly suggested on the basis for such negotiations, and he realizes that the details in all their complexity must be worked out patiently and in a spirit Generalization by the belligerents themselves. Unluali- fled approval of President Wilson's plan for the avoidance of future wars by some form of International organization having power to en- force it's opinions is Suggested by Pope Benedict, wko says that along the lines of this tYe splendid pro- ject must go red1ction of arma- ment to point inst to carry out the mandates of fhe world court It is inconceivablj, the pope holds, that any permaYent peace can be maintained unless the various peo- peoples are willing to gather in an amity foundea upon national lrights.
 | Any attempt to free economic ac- tion between the belligerents, the pope points out would be disas- Etrous; therefore, he says, there must be freedom of the seas in all that the tern implies
 | INDEMNIFY IMPOSSIBLE. 1 The pontiff declares that so ex- tcnsive has been the injury to all of the bcllgefents that there can ] be no thought now of either indem- nity or repMation,
