YES! LIFT A CORN
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati man tells how to dry
up a corn or eallus so it lifts
off 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 off, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle of freezone costs very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or ca!lus. This should be tried, as it
is inexpensive and is said not. to irri-
tate the surrounding skin.
IF your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get a small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house.-adv.

Efficiency Is word Of much prOmi-

means that you must accomplish the
greatest amount of work possible with
the least effort and smallest amount of
capital.
1t is not confined to any one indus
try, but covers them all, including the
farm. In the days past the farm
er, who wanted barn, too often erect
ed the walls and covered them with
roof. Many times the barn was
built regardless of how quick it would
enable the farmer later to do the work
he had to do In this barn.

4 thrilling mystery story about c man vho lost his courage and the girl who helped him to f1dH again

Perhaps never in his twenty-two years had young Drummond been so near thrashing. Fury that he was ashamed of shook Le Moyne. For very fear of himself, he thrust his hands in the pockets of his Norfolk coat.
 ''Very we'll" he said. "You go to her with just one of these ugly insinua- tions, and I'll take mighty good care that you are sorry for 1t. If you are going to behave like a bad child, you deserve 0 licking, and I'll give it to you.'
 An overflow from the parlor poured out on the porch. Le Moyne had got himself in hand somewhat. He was still angry, but the look in Joe's eye startled him. He put hand on the boys shoulder.
 'You're wrong, old man," he said. 'You're insulting the girl you care for by the things you are thinking. And, if it's any comfort to you, l have no intention of interfering in any way. You can count me out. It's between you and her."
 Joe picked his straw hat from a chair and stood turning it in his hands.
 "Even if you don't care for her, how do know she isn't crazy about you?"
 "My word of honor, she isn't" "She sends you notes to MeKees'."
 "Just to clear the air, I'll show it to you. It's no breach of confidence. It's about the hospital"
 Into the breast pocket of his coat he dived and brought up a wallet. The wallet had nad. a name on it in gilt let ters that had been carefully scraped off. But Joe did not wait to see the note.
 "Oh, damn the hospital P he said and went swiftly down the steps and into the gathering twilight of the June night.

"Tired?" He adopted the gentle, al- most tender tone that made most wom- en his slaves.
 "A little. It is warm"
 "What are you going to do this eve ming? Any lectures?"
 Lectures are over for the summer. I shall go to prayers, and after that to the roof for air."
 "Can't you take little ride tonight and cool off? I'll have the car wherever you say. A ride and some supper how does it sound? You could get away at seven"
 Miss Gregg is coming!"
 With an impassive face, the girl turned away. The workers of the op- erating room surged between them. But he was clever with the guile of the pursuing male. Eyes of all on him, he turned at the door of the wardrobe room and spoke to her over the heads of a dozen nurses.
 "That patients address that I had forgotten, Miss Harrison is the cor ner of the Park and Ellington avenue" "
 "Thank you"
 She played the game well, was quite calm. He admired her coolness. Ger tainly she was pretty, and certainly, too, she was interested in him. He went whistling into the wardrobe room. AS he turned he caught the in- terne's eye, and there passed between them a glance of complete comprehen- sion. The interne grinned.
 The room was not empty. His broth CT was there, listening to the comments of 0'Hara, his friendly rival.
 Good work, boy [" said O'Hara, and elapped hairy hand on his shoulder. "That last case was a wonder. I'm proud of you, and your brother here Is indecently exalted. It was the Ed wardes method, wasn't it? I saw 1t done at his clinic in New York"
 "Glad you liked it. Yes. Edwardes was pal of mine in Berlin. A great surgeon, too, poor old chap!"
 ''There aren't three men in the coun- try with the nerve and the hand for it. y
 O'Hara went out, glowing with his own magnanimity. Doctor Ed stood by and waited while his brother got into his clothes. He was rather silent. There were many times when he wished that their mother could have lived to see how he had carried out his promise to make man of Max. Sometimes he wondered what she

Floyd, members of the board of equalization of Crawford county, to force the officials 10 assess property in the city of Van Buren at a full market value. The company held a warrant for $594 against the city, and could not get par value for 1t. The defense was that the assess ments in the town were at 50 per cent of the market value, the same basis used in the county and in the state. and that in using a 30 per cent valua- tion the town was acting under its rights under the constitution. The de- cision was on the same interpretation as laid down by the Supreme Court in case from Johnson county ruled on several weeks ago.

to discard old creeds and old morali- ties-that was his game. Wilson be- came content, interested again. The girl was nimble-minded. She challenged his philosophy and gave him a chance to defend it. With the conviction, as their meal went on, that Le Moyne and his companion must surely have gone, she gained ease. It was only by wild driving that she got back to the hospital by ten o'clock. Wilson left her at the corner, well content with himself. As he drove up the Street he glanced across at the Page house. Sidney was there on the doorstep, talking to a tall man who stood below and looked up at her. Wilson settled his tie, in the darkness. Sidney was mighty pretty girl. The June night was in his blood. He was sorry he had not kissed Carlotta good night. He rather thought, now he looked back, she had expected it.
 As he got out of his car at the curb, young man who had been standing in the shadow of the treebox moved quickly away.
 Wilson smiled after him in the dark ness.
 "That you, JoeT' he called.
 But the boy went on.
 < * H q
 Sidney entered the hospital as a pro- bationer early in August. Christine was to be married in September to Palmer Howe, and, with Harriet and K. in the house, she felt that she could safely leave her mother.
 The balcony outside the parlor was already under way. On the night be- fore she went away Sidney took chairs out there and sat with her mother un- til the dew drove Anna to the lamp in the sewing room and her "Daily Thoughts" reading.
 Sidney sat alone and viewed her world from this new and pleasant angle. She could see the garden and the whitewashed fence with it's morn ing glories, and at the same time, by turning her head, view the Wilson house across the Street. She looked mostly at the Wilson house.
 K. Le Moyne was upstairs in his room. She could hear him trampiDg up and down, and catch, occasionally, the bitter-sweet odor of his old brier pipe.

Dr. Sands said that the field runs from the south- west out of Oklahoma into Arkansas toward the northeast. The drilling which struck oil was 12 miles west and four miles south of Waldron Tho well promises to be great producer" writes Dr. Sands. "Oil was struck at 2,7O0 feet and oil rose 300 feet. He, said owing to conditions which pro- duee high pressure upon the oil filled, the well probably will be gusher."
