people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati au-
thority. who claims that a few drops of
a drug called freezone when applied TO
a tender. aching corn stops soreness at
once. and soon the corn dries UP and
lifts right out without pain
He says freezone is an ether COM

never infames or even irritates the sur
rounding tissue skin. A quarter of
an ounce of freezone Will cost very
little at any drug store. but Is sufficient
TO remove every hard or soft corn or

American women will welcome this an

Apnenr to Governor To-day.

A final appeal is being made to Gov
ernor Goodrich al indianapolis today
by c. Q. Holmes, chairman of exemp-
ton board No. 2. who was delegated
to do this by Mayer Johnson.
The mayor last night talked with
the governor over the long distance
telephone and arranged for the APP
pointment to meet Holmes. Chairman
Holmes took with him a mass OF data.
including copy Of General Crowder's
letter saying the governor can right
any equalities. Holmes also planned
to tell that 40 per cent or Gary's draft
registrants are aliens and alien
mics. while another Is per cent are
frst paper aliens. Any doubling OF the
city's population will penalize the city.
which is hard hit by the fact that as
the law now stands aliens are exempt
ed In case congress does not change
the law nearly every American resi-
dent of Gary of draft age will have to
bear arms. while thousands of the for
eigners who vote here (under the Indi-
ana laws) can stay home and roll up
big profits to forward back to Austria
Hungary and other countries. OF course
there are hundreds OF foreigners. who
may not claim exemption, but there are
a vast number Of others who are loyal
to the extent Of not seeking to escape
military immunity.
An extract from General Crowder's
letter putting the situation up to the
governor is as follows:
1T follows that while this office
when preparing the federal apportfon-
ment to states and territories and the
district of Columbia, was bound by the
census bureaus estimate of the aggre-
gate population of each such state and
territory. and district. the governor of
a state IS not necessarily bound by the
census bureaus estimate as TO the pop
ulation of counties and cities, but may
depart from those estimates for reason
that appeal to a sound discretion. -"

Great Men Died Learning.

1t is well to remember that the very
greatest men died learning, like Ba-
con and Pasteur. Socrates was enter
ing old age when he drank the hem
lock, but do not think anyone would
say that his last words were, there
fore, Of no worth. The greatest bene-
factions to humanity, the greatest
services to human thought have not
all been bestowed or rendered by men
under twenty-five or even under forty
years of age, a fact sometimes worthy
of remembrance. Do not, then, fall
victims to over-confdence and close
your mind. The injunction is as i'm
portant for youth as for age; easy of
attainment for the former, difficult for
the latter; possibly for both. The past
and the present, youth and age, new
and old, all have their place in the
sun; all are needed for the widest
learning, for the highest achievement,
for the best development of mankind.

Greater Than Law.

The laws find their root in the ere
dence of the people. A 2-foot stone
wall guards my fine pears and melons
all summer long from droves Of hun
CRY boys, and poor men and women
And if one of these people should
question my right and pluck my fruit,
I could set the cumbrous machinery
of the law in motion, and by good luck
of evidence and. counsel 1 might get
my right asserted, and that particular
offender daunted. But if every pas
senger should make the like attempt,
though the law were perfect, my house
would not be worth living in nor my
fields worth planting. 1t is the edu-
cation of these people into ideas and
laws of property, and their loyalty,
that makes those stones in the low
wall so virtuous.-Emerson.

Pay, Pray and Pea AWAY,

In a Long Island village there used
to be and still is group of people who
thought a good deal of each other in
spite of what they said, which was
frequently Of an unsympathetic ma
ture, according to the New York Sun.
The group existed under various self
imposed names and had a semi-humor-
Gus motto which ran, "Pay, pray and
peg away"
All the members Of this little asso-
citation are still alive, kicking and
good-natured.
Now seems an apt time to suggest
that their motto be made public and
urged for more general adoption.

COLD FEET CAUSE TROUBLE
ChIiled Extremities May Be Held Re-
sponsbIe for Many Physical Ills,
Says Physician.

Cold feet are generally a sign of
poor circulation. They usually accom-
pany such diseases as acne and ro-
sacea. Rosacea is that redness of the
face that comes from dilatation of the
capillaries of the skin and looks like
a fine red network, especially about a
dubious nose.
DR.. Douglass w. Montgomery of San
Francisco, in an article on Rabelais'
descriptions of rosacea, quotes a IA
nous English physician in holding that
cold feet were the cause of rosacea.
adding lit may very well be that he
was correct, as chilled extremities. es-
pecially in sedentary people, undoubt-
edly react disadvantageously on the
internal organs, causing catarrhs and
other congestions and lowering the re-
sistance to infection, and all of these
are the steady Accomplishments of
rosacea.
Furthermore, those who have rosa
cea habitually have cold feet. and If is
very difficult for them to get them
warm"
