Lift Out Your Corns
ICE-MINT
THE NEW DISCOVERY ENDS
ALL
Foot Troubles

This new discovery, made from a
japanese product is certainly a won
der the way it draws out inflamma tion
from a pair of swollen, burning, aching
feet. 1t takes the soreness right out
then the corn or callous shrivels and
Hard corns. soft corns or corns be-
tween the toes, Just shrivel up and lift
off so easy. 1t is wonderful. Just
think! Not one bit of pain while ap-
plying Ice-mint or afterwards. Ii
doesn't even irritate the surrounding
skin.
You will never have to cut a corn
again and run the risk of blood poison.
Say good-by to your old corn sa1ve,
plasters and bundling tape for that pet
corn of yours is sure to be a "goner"
If 1t ever feels the magic touch of Ice
mint.
1t imparts such a delightful, sooth-
ing, cooling feeling to the feet that
you will sigh with relief.
Ice-mint is the real Japanese secret
for fine, healthy little feet. 1t pre-
vents loot odors and keeps them sweet
and comfortable. 1t is greatly appre-
ciated by women who wear high heel
shoes.
Just ask in any drug store for lit
tie Iee-mint and give your poor. suf-
fering. tired, swollen feet the treat of
their lives. 1t costs little and there is
nothing BETTER

than tSat of the French, are still an
appreciable distance from Cambrai,
their nearest outpost being about 12
miles from that city. The great inn
p0rtance of Cambrai lies in the fact
that it is the principal barrier between
the allies and the great French coal
and iron fields around Valenciennes.
20 miles further on. These fields have
been in the possession of the Germans
since the first sweep through Belgium.
While uncertainty still reigns as to
the outcome of the great drama being
staged in Picardy, the Germans con-
tinue their efforts to create a daYNr-
sion in the region of Verdun, but so
far nothing has developed to indicate
that the major operation is under
way. The most important fighting
reported from any other theater is
from the Ion quiescent Macedonian
front.
Here the fighting between the Bull
gar-Teutonic forces and General Sar-
rails French troops has been steadily
growing in severity with conflicting
reports as to its results.

military authorities. to-day pleaded
guilty. They will be sentenced to-
morrow.
1t was charged by the Federal au-
thorities that Sander and Wunnenberg
engaged George Vaux Bacon, of
st. Louis, an American newspaperman,
to go to England in the role of a spy
and that Bacon received money from
Wunnenberg to pay his expenses. 1t
was alleged also that the conspirators
furnished Bacon with quantities of in
visible or sympathetic" ink for use
in communication between them.
Bacon, who was arrested in Eng
land, was permitted to return here to
testify against Sander and Wunnen-
berg. This led, it was said, to the
two men pleading guilty. Wunnen-
berg is 35 years old and had been
connected with the German American
Literary Defense Committee. He was
former employe of the New Yorker
Stats Zeitung and dramatic editor on
the Deutsches Journal. Wunnenberg
claims to have been naturalized
twenty five years ago. With Bacon
they were indicted March 8.

q little thing like that didn't worry
her one little bit. Why should a bank
bother about carrying money in their
dinkey old musty vaults when all they
needed to do was just to print paper
money as they needed it. Silver and
gold, of course, she knew were differ
ent, banks had to send to Washington
for that, but paper money, huh, moth

bills for customers.
Husband Owns Whole Bank
Finally she forgot all about the
money, assuring Captain Thompson
that she didn't need to worry about
it. Her husband owned a bank and
If no one else would make her money,
hubby could print it himself. Why
worry about a little thing like a few
millions OF dollars?
Columbus, Bonaparte and Washington
Just to prove that she had noble
family connections, she endeaVored
to give the captain a short history of
her genealogical tree. The farthest
back she was able to trace was Chris
topher Columbus. Napoleon Bona
parte, however, was related by mar
riage, although she couldn't be sure
she was directly descended from him.
George Washington nevertheless had
been related to her greatgrandmother
Her husband the banker, was also of
noble lineage, but the Captain didn't
have time to listen to both sides of
the, family history.
Mrs. Heikes left the bank evidently
forgetting all about the splendid air
castles that she had been building
Her quer ideas on check writing are
well known in the local banks and
although she is always treated courte-
ously, she is never taken very seri-
ously by those who know her.
