Seems EVERYONE
heard ABOUT IT
All want to try new drug that dries
up corns so they lift out.

Good news spreads rapidly and drug
gists here are kept busy dispensing
freezone, the recent discovery OF a Gin
cinnati man, which is said to loosen
any corn so it lifts out with the
fingers.
A quarter OF an ounce costs very 1T
tie at any pharmacy, but is said to be
sufficient to rid ones feet OF every hard
or soft corn or callus.
You apply just few drops on the
tender aching corn and Instantly the
soreness Is relieved, and soon the corn
IS so shriveled that It lifts out with
out pain. 1t is a stick substance which
dries when applied and never inflames
or even irritates the adjoining tissue.
This discovery will prevent thou
sands Of deaths annually from lockjaw
and infection heretofore resulting
from the suicidal habit OF cutting
corns.

FLOWERS
BY EDWARD DELACOUR-

shave heard and read IL often friends.
In speech and in pleasing rhymes,
That flowers are acceptable gifts,
In glad and in sorry times.
The pansies we send with thoughts OF
thee,
When good friends are far apart,
Vlolets blue I'll always be true.
To the one nearest the heart
The stately white lilies called by some.
The choicest flowers that bloom,
Have twofold mission we know well,
At the altar and the tomb.
The roses rare that come with rush,
When all nature IS a-tune,
We freely give with a lavish hand,
To sweet happy brides In June.
So send me the pansy-fragrant rose,
When you find me in glad times;
Stately white lily-violet blue,
When I'm having sorry times.

Claims Conditions Are Better
in Sussex Since Saloons
Were Closed
DR.. MITCHELL ALSO
MADE AN ADDRESS

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEWARK, Oct 22,-Colonel Robert
G. Houston, Of Georgetown was the
principal speaker at dry meeting
held last night in the Opera House
under the auspices OF the Ant-License
Committee OF White Clay Greek hun
dred. Colonel Houston spoke espec-
tally OF conditions In Sussex county
which he contended had greatly i'm
proved in every way since tho county
went dry" ten years ago.
To give their congregations an op-
portunity to attend tho meeting the
services In the Protestant churches
were omitted last night and the oper4
House was crowded. DR.. Samuel G.
Mitchell, president OF Delaware Col
lege, presided. Among those seated
on the stage in addition 10 the

Everett Q. Johnson, Representative w.
Tr,ixton Boyce, DR.. Thomas +. MAINS,
Professor A %. Grantham, Edward l..
Richards. DR.. William J. Rowan, the
Rev. p. p. Roberts and others.
Dr.. Mitchell in a few remarks told
of experiences in Charlottesville Va,
and later Richmond, both Of which
are now "dry." He stated that both
cities have been benefited in every
way and did not think any one liv-
ing there would want 70 60 back 10
the old order The Mayor OF Char
lotiesbille recently told him business
had improved greatly by driving out
the saloons, but that the Jail was
practically closed and everyone Is
rejoiced over the outcome All OF
Virginia, he said is now dry" and
IN acme counties he understood they
have closed the jails. as there Is no
moro need for then. In concluding
he said, II have no doubt II you drive
OUT the saloons from New Castle
county business VIII be better and II
will be better in every way"
Colonel Houston In his speech said
Che liquor business ia an evil and IS
so considered by every court and
every State legislature as tho legis-
lures pass laws 20 regulate tho
liquor trafic because 4 IS dtil.
'eVhem you go TO the ballot box You
inust decide whether you shall pro-
tect the man IN the business to make
money or the great American homo.
That IS the issue"
The speaker contended that 70 per
cent. OF the crimes are the result OF
nquor and that rs per cent. Of In
sanity comes from It. He said that
there has not been eanr as much
+ criminal business in the Sussex
county court since the county went
rdrys and on the other hand bust
ness has greatly increased. He also
stated that the extra revenue that
the state received because OF In
creased business in the county more
than makes up what was lost by
taking away the liquor licenses.
During his career as a lawyer no said
ne had been called on to defend
seven or eight defendants charged
with murder and in every case but
one the trouble was due TO liquor.
Every murder committed in the
county since It became dry" Col
onel Houston said. has been due to
hquor, and he thought much OF It
came from New Castle county. which
Is another reason why the people OF
Sussex want 10 see New CASTLE
county go dry"

MODEL ROAD F00LISHNESS

We hope this county will waste
no more money on so-called model
roads. They are fine. There Is nc
cues ton about that. But we cannot
afford them, and while we are max
ing a few miles of them the rest of
the main thoroughfares of the coun-
ty are going back to dirt roads as
rapidly as possible. To go out the
Mt. Sterling about 2l2 miles on the
model road and then Jump off onto a
mass of rutS and mudholes reminds
us of fellow who dresses up in a
plug hat, dress coat and vest and
then puts on a pair of greasy over
alls and brogan shoes run down at
the heel. And there is no reason to
hope that we will ever be able to
modelize our whole system or even
the main arteries of travel. Give all
the roads the benefit of their pro-
portionate share Of the road funds.
and make the next Legislature re-
peal the present law in regard to
the automobile tax, and pass a law
to enable each county to levy good
stiff tax on each auto or other motor
vehicle the proceeds to go into the
county road fund.
The State aid system is a humbug,
a delusiOn and snare. Ii was con-
ceived and has been perpetuated to
give fat jobs to politicians, and it is
of no benefit to the roads as a whole.
