C0RNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You say to- the drug store man,
"Give me a small bottle of freezone."
This will cost very little but will
positively remove every hard or soft
corn or cpllus from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether com
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn relieves the soreness in
stantly. and soon the entire corn or
callus, root and all, dries up and can
be lifted of with the fingers.
This new way TO rid ones feet OF
corns was introduced by Cincinnati
man, who says that freezone dries In
moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn or callus without irritating the
surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to order small bottle from
his wholesale drug house for you-adv

and swellings. Foreign bodies are
sometimes found embedded in the mu-

or lodged between the teeth.
The examination of the pharynx and
Of the esophagus is made chiefly by
pressing upon the skin covering these
organs in the region of the throat and
along the left side of the neck In the
jugular gutter. Sometimes, when a
more careful examination is necessary,
an esophageal tube or probang is
passed through the nose or mouth
down the esophagus to the stomach.
In examination of The abdomen one
should remember that it's size depends
largely upon the breed, sex, and con-
formation Of the animal, and also up
on the manner in which the animal
has been fed and the use to which it
has been put. A pendulous abdomen
may be the result of an abdominal tu-
NOR or of an accumulation Of fluid in
the abdominal cavity; or, on the other
hand, it may merely be an indication
of pregnancy, or of the fact that the
horse has been fed for long time on
bulky and nutritious food. Pendu

In applying the ear to the flank, or

on the right side than on the left or
account of the fact that the large in
testines lie in the right flank. Alb
sence Of peristaltic sounds is always
an indication of disease, and suggests
exhaustion or paralysis of the intes

And the Girl Screamed,

One of the best stories related by
Samuel /. Levin concerns a couple of
stage gymnasts, one of whom hung by
his feet from lofty trapeze, holding
in his teeth gag attached to swivel,
which carried his partner by the belt.
The lower man, in horizontal posi-
ton, face downward, swung round and
round, but became so Indifferent to his
circumstances that his eye wandered
over the hall.

his bearer, "your girls here"

is an excess of fluid or gas in the in
testinai canal.
The feces show, to q certain extent,
the thoroughness of digestion. They
should show that the feed has been
well ground, and should, in the horse,
be free from offensive odor or coatings
OF mucus. A coating of mucus shows
intestinal catarrh. Blood on the feces
indicates severe Inflammation. Very
light color and bad odor may come
from inactive liver.

found brain disturbance. Thirst is in
creased after profuse sweating, in
diabetes, diarrhea, in fever, at the
crisis of infectious diseases, and when
the mouth is dry and hot.
Some diseases of the mouth or
throat make it difficult for the horse
to chew or swallow his feed. Where
difficulty in this respect is experienced,
the following named conditions should
be borne in mind and carefully looked
for: Diseases of the teeth, consisting
In decay, fracture, abscess formation,
or OvergrOwth; inflammatOry cOndi-
tons, or wounds or tumors of the
tongue, cheeks, or lips; paralysis of
the muscles of chewing or swallowing !;
mouth between the molar teeth in
fiammation of throat. Difficulty in
swallowing is sometimes shown by the
symptom known as "quidding." Quid-
ding consists in dropping from the
mouth well-chewed and insalivated
boluses of feed. A mouthful Of hay,
for example, after being ground and
masticated, is carried to the back part
of the mouth. The horse then finds
that from tenderness of the throat, or
from some other cause, swallowing is
difficult or painful, and the bolus is
then dropped from the mouth. An
other quantity of hay is similarly pre-
pared, only to be dropped in turn.
Sometimes pudding is due to painful
tooth, the bolus being dropped from
the mouth when the tooth Is struck
and during the pang that follows.
In some brain diseases, and particu-
larry in chronic internal hydrocepha-
lus, the horse has most peculiar man
ner of swallowing and of taking feed
! A similar condition Is seen In hyper
emia of the brain. In eating the horse
will sink his muzzle into the grain in
the feed box and eat while without
| raising the head. Long pauses are
Sometimes the horse will eat very rap
idly for little while and then slowly
the jaws may be brought together Sc
| forcibly that the teeth gnash. In eat.
ing hay the horse will stop at times
with hay protruding from the mouth
and stand stupidity, as though he has
| forgotten what he was about.
IL examining the mouth one should
| first look for swellings or for evidence
Of abnormal conditions upon the exte
rior; that Is, the front and sides OF
| the face, the jaws, and about the muz
zle. BY this means wounds, fractures
tumors, assesses and disease accom-
panied by eruptions about the muzzlt
may be detected. The interior of the
mouth Is examined by holding the head
up and inserting the fingers through
the interdental space In such way
as to cause the mouth 10 open. The
mucous membrane should be clean ant
of light-pink color, excepting on tn,

A healthy horse ordinarily has a
good appetite. Excitement, strange
surroundings, fatigue, and hot weather
may all cause loss of appetite. Where
there is cerebral depression, fever, pro-
found weakness, disorder of the stom-
ach, or mechanical difficulty in chew
ing or swallowing, the appetite is d.
minished or destroyed. Sometimes
there is an appetite or desire to eat
abnormal things, such as dirty bed
ding, roots of grass, oil, etc. This de-
sire usually comes from q chronic dis
turbance of nutrition.

MAJOR TAYLOR COMING
Committee Here Next Week for Fort
Sheridan Benefit.

The affairs of the Fort Sheridan
association are to receive fresh i'm
petus in this city very soon, accord
ing to an assertion today by several
members of the association now in
Topeka on furlough. A number of
the members of the Kansas commit
tee of the Fort Sheridan association
are expected to put in an appearance
in the city sometime next week. The
committee will be headed by Major J.
w. E. Taylor, U. S. R.
The Fort Sheridan association is
an organization formed for the pur-
pose of providing funds to outfit its
members who are ordered overseas
for service with the American army
The money is loaned to members or
to men differed by members by the
association. The money is repaid to
the association through allotments of
pay, and the original loan, plus 5
per cent is thus returned, making a
sort of revolving fund. The Fort
Sheridan association is attempting to
start a membership campaign in To-
peka under the auspices of the Ro-
tary club, always providing that the

of Commerce sees fit to affix its sane

The chancellor has mailed letters ex-
planning the league plan to 500 col
leges ard universities in this country
and the answer has been in practically
all cases that they are strongly in IA
vor of the plan. The league idea met
with immediate success in Washing

presented before last Friday and ap-
proYal was evidently given Saturday.
heartily lndOrSe the War League
of American colleges" said the chan
cellor this morning, when interviewed.
1t means that the student body of
universities and colleges over the
whole United States will be organized
Tor concerted action in all war meas
ures or war economies that may come
up in college life or life after gradual
ton, and even in peace times, when
that time comes"
Dean Templin, in his analysis of the
| needs for the league, says that most
colleges and universities are trying to
meet their extraordinary responsible
| tiles. Committees of faculty and stu
dent members have been appointed,
meetings have been held, addresses
have been delivered. subscription pa
pers circulated military drill intro
duced and many other things of like
purpose have been undertaken. Never
theless, there has been much march
ing up hill and down; there is more or
less bewilderment everywhere. With
no clear understanding of what ought
to be done, it has been natural to fol-
low established custom and to wait for
a directing hand from acknowledged
authority, he contends.
Same Experience at X. e.
The K IT, dean then points out that
the same has been experienced at the
University of Kansas, and then he
shows how the war league plan is
being introduced here. A FACULTY in
telligence committee has been created
to cooperate with a similar commit
tee made up of students. 1t is the pur-
pose of this committee, he points out,
to use available means to enlighten
students upon the nature and mean
ing of the war in its different phases,
and to bring to their attention such
information as will lead them to get a
right perspective, to judge events
Sanely. and to order their own lives
appropriately with respect to the parts
they must take, now and in the fu-
ture-
The big significance of the whole
plan is that the American college is to
have an active part in the world war,
whether the students have enlisted or
are planning to. In other words, the
colleges of the country will take their
place in the affairs of the nation.
1t has been pointed out to the Amer
lean colleges that when the war start
ed the English college men went as a
body to the front and much of the
best material for making officers in
the British army was killed off early
in the war. Part of the work of
this league, it is supposed, will con-
sist in keeping up a steady flow of
men from the American colleges to
! the ranks of officers in the various
| military forces of the country. The
league will also tend to keep the un-
dergraduate machine in good working
order.

Simple Way To
End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has
never failed to remove dandruff at
once, and that is to dissolve it, then
you destroy it entirely. To do this,
just get about four ounces of plain,
common liquid arvon from any drug
store (this is all you will need), ap-
ply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning most, if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will complete
ly dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no mat
ter how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and dig
cling of the scalp will stop instantly,
and your hair will be fluffy, 1ustrous,
glossy, silky and soft, and look and
feel a hundred times better.-Adv.

IDEA OF KANSAN
College War League Endorsed
by Q. S. Government.
OIin TempIin of Lawrence Is
at It's Head.

Lawrence, Kan, Dec. 5.-The pro-
posed War league of American col
leges is now a fact. Word that the
United States government had recog-
nized the value of the league has been
received here from Dean Olin Templin,
originator of the idea. who went to
Washington last Sunday. Templin,
who is dean of the college at the Uni
versity of Kansas, drew up plans for
the formation of the league and con-
ceived the idea.
George Creel, chairman of the COM
mittee of public information at Wash
ington and in charge of the censorship
work of the government, is strongly in
favor of the plan and has asked Dean
Templin to undertake the formation of
the league. He has provided office
room and an office force for mis- work
Templin has accepted the duty of su-
pervising the work and is now super
vising the work.
The telegram received follows:

PRIVATE AND MRS, NOW

Marries Onaga Girl.

The local recruiting office of the
United States army has furnished To-
peka and Onaga with a new war
bride 1t has been evident for some
time that Private E. B. Miner of the
Topeka army recruiting station has
had something very definite on his
mind. He has seemed more or less
dreamy for upwards of a month or
two. However, he is now his old
cheerful self and struts about the Of
flee with pardonable degree of pride.
Private Miner and his wife-to-be
slipped quietly out of Topeka on Sat
urday night and as quietly slipped
back again. The difference between
the two trips being that they went to
Kansas City merely as Private E. B.
Miner, U. S. recruiting service and
Leila M. Ffthian of Onaga and To-
peka. BHt they returned as Private
and Mrs. E B. Miner And therein
lies the tale.
