The value of state trade commits,
sions is strongly indicated in an an.
nouncement of the federal trade com.
mission wherein it asserts its lack
of power to prosecute the food hoard
ers for the reason that most of the
complaints have to do with local con
ditions and being intrastate the fed
eral commission has no control ovel
them. However, with state trade
commissions they could come to the
assistance of the federal body which
could have referred these complaints
for attention and great deal of the
abuse could have been eliminated.

YES! MAGICALlY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because a few
drops of freezone applied directly on
a tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens SO 1t can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle Of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as it
is inexpensive and is said not to irri-
tate the surrounding skin.
II your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get a small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. It IL
fine stuff and acts like charm every
time.

THE GREAT DEMAND FOR WOODEN
SHIPS.

Submarines and mines have created
havoc with the ships Of all nations and
the whole world is calling upon American
shipyards for vessels to keep it's COM
merce moving. The ships. however. have
been destroyed in such numbers that it
will require ten years of feverish activity
to replace them, hence shipbuilding has
become a very remunerative industry on
the Pacific coast 1t Is now largely mo-
nopolized by men of means who were
quick to seize the opportunity. A com
pany recently organized in Portland has
adopted the unit plan, which places
the large earnings within reach Of all,
giving the investor an actual interest In
the ship itself and allowing him to OBJ
tain 1t on easy installments A letter ad-
dressed to the Reedsport- Oregon Ship
Co., Chamber of Commerce, Portland,
Oregon, will bring to the writer the in
teresting illustrated literature issued by

endeavoring to go them one better.
They have applied to the postmaster

DAY TO APPLY TO
ALL THE WOMEN
Wage Commission Hears
Complaints Of Discrimina-
ton in Proposed Law
Regulating w o m e n s
Work.

Industrial employees who appeared
before the minimum wage commission
at it's meeting in the city hall last
night, declared they would welcome
the eight-hour law for women with u
nestle help as well as in industrial
lines. Laundrymen, who were pres
emf, stated they had no objection to an
eight hour law and $40 per week
scale, providing the legislature would
provide some way to protect them from
the competition of the Chinese laun-
drymen. IF we raise our prices to pay
more wages, then the laundry goes to
the Chinese" said one. He also point
ed out the Chinese ate and slept in
the places where they did their laun-
dry work, worked half and sometimes
all night, but that the laundrymen. no
matter how rushed. could only work
girls nine hours and now eight was
proposed.
Most of the representatives of bust
ness present felt the eight hour. day
with minimum wage scale would not
materially affect their business, but
they did not want it to apply to them
alone. The club women who are be-
hind the movement, they stated, should
have the same consideration for help
in their homes, as they expected those
who employ help in industrial lines
to have.
The members of the commission who
heard the statements were, Harry w.
Fulton of Boise, George f. Hill of
Rigby, and Mrs. Theresa Graham Of
Occur d'Alene.

RUBBER SPONGE INNER TUBES

For some time, the brains and time
of many men have been occupied IN a
search for substitute or modificat 4 on
of the pneumatic tire for automobiles.
We have seen about everything from
metal springs to tires made with the
regular tire casing but containing n
solid block of gum used as a bumper.
The season of tire filters occupies now
only a page In the history of this
search. Springs have been discarded
because OF their sowness to respond,
and it has been decided by the great
majority of automobile owners that
nothing rides as easy as air, and rather
than use tire filters they would sub
stitute solid tires and have done with
1t.
The latest and most promising sub
stitute for the air filler is rubber
sponge. which fulfills all the conditions
necessary for a successful tire filler.
Recently, tires filled with this ma
teria were driven 1860 miles with an
average speed of thirtyfive miles an
hour without any apparent deteriora-
tion of the filling material.-Chemical
