PUT ON FEW DROPS
AND LIFT OUT CORN
Try this yourself, then pass il
along to others. It
works!

Good things should be passed along.
1t is now said that few drops of a
drug called freezone applied directly
upon tender, aching corn relieves
the soreness and soon the entire corn,
root and all, can be lifted out without
pain.
For little cost quarter Of an ounce
Of freezone can be obtained from any
drug store which is claimed to be suf-
ficient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet.
This is a drug recently announced
from Cincinnati. 1t Is gummy but
dries the moment it is applied and
simply shrivels up the corn without
inflaming or even irritating the
healthy tissue or skin.

DEBATE ON EXCISE TAX MEASURE

Give Up Hope for Pet Bills
Advocates of measures of local in

securing consideration of their bills
in the upper house. There are more
than 200 bills posted there for third

ly keeps the stomach sweetened, and
they eat their favorite foods without
fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care of
your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is damage instead of a
help. remember the quickest, surest,
most harmless antacid is Pape's Dia-
pepsin which costs only fifty cents for
large case at drug stores. It's truly
wonderful-it stops food souring and
sets things straight, SO gently and east
ly that it is really astonishing. Your
stomach will digest your meals if you
keep acids neutralized.

You don't know what upset your

bother. If your stomach is in a re.

what you just ate has fermented and
turned sour; head dizzy and aches;

pected that the issue would be finally
determined in the senate before the
general appropriation bill, set as a

that developments might result in an

the final roll call on the passage of

made yesterday, the senate is schedul-
