Yes! Lift A Corn
 Off Without Pain!

You corn-pestered men and wo- men need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes that nearly killed you be- fore, says this Cineinnati authority, because a few drops of freezone ap- piled directly on a tender, aching corn or callus, Fops( soreness at once and soon the Foyn or hardened callus loosens so can be lifted out, root and all, without pain.
 A small bottle of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but will positively take off every hard or soft corn or callus. This should be tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not to irritate the surround ing skin.
 If your druggist hasn't any free zone tell him to get a small bottle for you from his wholesale drug house. It is fine stuff and acts like a charm every time. *G3

RUSSIANS SHOOT DOWN OWN
 TROOPS WHEN DISSENTING. l.

London, July 27.-A dispatch to the Post from Petrograd says that under Gen. Korniloff's drastic meas ures to restore order in the eleventh army one whole division thereof was blown to pieces by their own which all loyal troops, and espec- ially the artillery, have endured for the last four months.
 Information regarding the guns of the eleventh army almost stag gers belief. It appears that the in- fantry shot down their own gun ners in order to get their horses, or shot down the gun horses in re- venge as they retreated, leaving practically all the artillery of the eleventh army in the enemy's hands.
 As far as the artillery and tech ncal appliances of the seventh and eighth armies aw concerned, there is also no hope of their being saved. The Germans were already couple of days ago across the best road on the shortest line of re- treat. The rate of the enemy's ad vance on the western wing has ac- celerated and the gun positions are behind the line now occupied by the Germans. It is becoming an ex- ceedingly anxious, question whether the eighth army will succeed in getting away at all, but it is mak- ing the best haste eastwards.

TYPHOID SRPEAD
 CAUSING CONCERN
Suggestion Is Made That Govern ment Expert Be Procured to
 Make Investigation.

Belief upon the part of num- Der of citizens that the increas- |ingly large number of typhoid cases reported to the city health depart ment is traceable to common cause has prompted the request that a government expert be sent to Paragould for the purpose of making a thorough investigation of milk and water supplies. Dr. G. T.
 Hopkins, city health officer, in discussing the matter this morning, Istated that he would cheerfully CO., operate in any plan suggested that might appear feasible, although he does not consider that anything sa- voring of an epidemic exists. Dr. Hopkins, while admitting that ty-. phoid has been slightly more preva- lent this year than formerly, has made a careful study of individual cases, and, with one exception, has failed to find any facts whatever that would tend to strengthen the fear that common infection is re- lsponsible for spread of the malady., l he agrees with other citizens, how ever, that it would be far better Ito take unnecessary precautions | than to run the risk of not being sufficiently dihgent, and for this reason will tonight, at a meeting of, the board of health, lay before that body the suggestions made for the bringing of government ty- Iphoid expert to the city.
 J. M. Futrell called upon Dr.
 Hopkins this morning, and upon
 his own initiative and as the repre- tentative of other citizens who
 have become alarmed, discussed
 the subject from it's various angles.
 Dr. Hopkins assured him that, al
 though the spread of typhoid dur ing the past few days had been ab-
 normal, the fact that cases were widely separated, and that only in one instance had two cases been in the same family, virtually did away
 with the theory of an epidemic due Ito pollution at some central point, such, for instance, as an unhealth- lful condition of the water supply, or milk He stated that some weeks Iago he ordered the city's reservoirs
 Thoroughly cleaned, and that Wa
 ter Superintendent Mcdonald has frequently flushed hydrants in an effort to get rid of any water that might have become stagnated. In addition to this precaution, work l ing with other physicians, he has attempted to keep a record of cases of typhoid reported, in order to study the cause.
 He states that at this season of
 the year typhoid is caused largely
 from eating uncooked fruits. The public is advised to exercise great care in this respect. It is also de- sired to impress upon the public
 necessity of vaccination. The meth
 cd of administering anti-typhoid
 vaccine is not painful, and but
 slight inconvenience is caused. In some cases nausea for a feWs hours results, but on the whole no seri-
 Ously objectionable symptoms re-
 suits. The vaccine is almost a sure
 guarantee against the disease, and
 renders the patient virtually i'm mune for period of from four to
 five years.

"CONDEMMED"-A DISCUSSION OF COUNTY
 1. FINANCES.
tFRoM MONDAYS DAILY PRES.

 According to the cOunty's records fourteen thou sand one hundred sixteen dollars and eightyfve cents were spent by the twenty three road districts during the fiscal year ending with July 1917 In addition to thls the sum of four thousand hundred eightyslx dol lars and sixteen expended for bridges built and repaired by the county proper rather than the several road districts. Both these are supplemented by the hypothetical labor for period of four days of every male between the ages of 21 and 45 years excluding crippes and school directors. It is assumed roughly that this free labor called for the time of hirflve hun dred four days each the equivalent of approX mately fifteen thousand dollars.
 Summed up in cold facts Greene county is spending annually thirty thousand dollars for road and bridget work and it is today notorious fact that under the administration of the present county judge the counys public highways not only impossible at many lmpor- tant points but actually dangerous to traffic.

COURTHOUSE OBSERVATIONS
CFrom Saturdays Daily Press)

tFrom Saturdays Daily Press)
 We xfeel that a wise investment upon the part of the public would be the purchase of cheap auto mobile for the county judge with the stipulation that bond be glv- en guaranteeing that his Excellency will use it. There is the wreck of q bridge lying in the center of the public road west of Paragould. Ap- parently it will not be moved until the said county judge is forced to collide with it. He doesn't seem to care how greatly the public IS annoyed, so long as it doesn't cost him anything. If high water should float a barn into the courthouse yard. we doubt if he'd find it out for a week, unless told by some ono. The county's public roads are in worse condition than decen- cy and common sense permit. The nisgardly policy of condemning bridges instead of repairing them IS cOupleQ Wllu dUOuI oo AuSAA common sense as the public is en- titled to see exercised, in view Of it's poor political judgment, but the limit will be reached when a county mass meeting is called for the purpose of showing why an ad- ministrative head is needed and why a new vacancy would be ac- ceptable as a substitute for the one now existing in the county judges office. A good vacancy is far pref erable to a positive vacuum.
 In Vienna the streets are of wa ter. It should not be inferred, how ever. that Greene county is at tempting to copy after vienna merely because bridges are found floating around indiscriminately on the public roads.

Governor Alexander received 1856
bills from the legislature. He vetoed
25 in whole and in part. and ap-
proved Ill. This is better than the
Governor did two years ago when
20 bills of a republican Legislature
met the AK. Many of the same bills
introduced and passed by rerhIbli-
cans two years ago. and met the
displeasure of the executive. were
revived by democrats at this session
and they have been approved and be-
come the law. AS to saving the state,
the democrats have introduced and
passed more and larger appropria-
tion bills than any of their republi-
can predecessors.
1t is needless to say that many OF
the new laws and appropriations for
new work have great merit and will
go far in securing the progress OF
the state in the way it should.
