THE BOYS ROOM.

Boys like to have things-such as pig. Or a dog, or a baseball bat, or room-that they may call their very own. Early in fife this desre .or pri- vate ownership gets hold of them, and when encouraged and directed may be no nconsiderable influence in shaping their lives.
 The boy needs things to do wi h as he pleases. lie needs them that he may develop initiative, and he needs them that he may get as much out of being boy as possible.
 The family room-or the dining room, or kitchen--isn , the place fer the boy all the time ha is in the house. Father may be tired and irri able; mother may be worn and nervous. Ua- til bedtime the boy is busy and noisy, and concerned wi Il the interests that are particularly his. He needs a room somewhere to get eff to himself in where he may play, or study, or dream and plan.
 And the boys room ought to be neither a bare at jc or 8 crowded plunder room. Let it re truly his-or shared with a brother or brothers and lel him have it fitted up some what as he chooses. X few sugges- tiOnS from mOther-or even father and the boy himself will do the rest. He'll put in the furniture he needs, if encouraged-hell even put pictures on the walls and, with mothers synPa- Chizing help. curtains on the windows.
 He'll be proud ofthe room He'll be glad for mother and father to pay it an occasional short visit. He'll take his companions to it with satisfaction. ana what pleasure in itself 1t will be to him.
 If the house has in it wIee the boy likes, the house is going to have more attraction for him than tie streets the barber shop, or the railway station. And one thing real toy really likes is pleasant little room somewhere about the place really and truly lis own.-Hollands

LIFT YOUR CORNS
 OFF WITH FINGERS
Tells how to loosen tender corn
 or caIus so it lift3 out without pair.

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from lockjaw or blood poison are now told by Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied 10 any corn or callls the soreness is re- lieved and soon the entire corn or cal Jus, root and all, lifts of with the Gn- gers.
 Freezone dries the moment it is ap- piled, and simply shrivels the corn or call Jus without infaming or even irritating the surrounding tissue or skin. A small bottle of freezone will cost very little at any of the drug stores, but will posi- lively rid ones feet of every hard or soft corn or hardened callus. If your druggist hasn't any freezone he can get it at any wholesale drug house for you.

For County Delegate,

We are in the war, and in to the finish. be it long or short Since the thing that we have tried to avoid for more than two years has come to us at last this government will carry It to a successful conclusion if it must at last command the very last resources of the nation. It is fortunate for us that it came at this season of the year, when the people can plan to meet the situation. The farming season is just beginning. Our people must be fed. Cur people must realize that no food calamity must reach the people as a whole. Every available foot of soil should be utilized in town and on the farm. Alike We should all feel the responsibility. Back of the armies and navies must stand the armies of farmers and industrial workers. There must be no faltering there. The man with the blow is fighting for his coun- try as periodically as the man with the gun. One must fall without the perfect cooperation of the other. This war will be won by the side whose food supply will hold out. The powder supply, the shell supply will hold out, The money supply is unlimited but the food supply of the world is taxed to the limit. Let's make Little River county more than self supporting.

AItNi&

Much Of the expected wheat erop Of Kansas has been declared1 total =fail- u1e because of drouth, and the goyer- nor of that state sends out an alarm to the people of the state, urging them b practice every economy in the use Of all food because the states supply is already short.
 In Nebraska, the wheat crop is greatly damaged in the same way, and seed wheat is being rushed to that section for spring planting in an effort to overcome the calamity.
 With such crop conditions existing with our country denuded of surplus foodstuffs by the export trade, and with war at hand, the situation is truly alarming. We have for months been hearing of famine in foreign lands. and could scarce take home to ourselves in this land of plenty the awful meaning. But just as the mean ling of war is coming closer as we learn of the jeopardy in which some of our neighbors sons have been placed, so We may learn yet of hunger and want.
 There are only two known methods through which we can temper this calamity-by strict economy and the extreme of productive activity. And our farmers should keep in mind right now that a bale of cotton make mighty poor diet for a hungry family.-Mena Star.

 II. NJ. Cottrell, agricultural commits sioner of the Farm Development Bu- reau of the Memphis Business Mems Club, says that it does.

 In letter to the Arkansas Profit able Farming Bureau of the Little Rock Board of Commerce MT Cottrell tells Of this lest opportunity, as fol Jews:
