Cincinnati Man Tells How to Shrivel
Up Corns Or Calluses So They
Lift Of With Fingers.

Ouch !?!?!! This kind OF
rough talk will be heard less here in
town if people troubled with eorns
will follow the simple advice Of this
Cincinnati authority, who claims that
a few drops of drug called freezone
when applied to a tender, aching
corn or hardened callus stops sore
ness at once, and soon the corn OF
callus dries up and lifts right of
without pain.
He says freezone dries immediate
ly and never inflames or even irri.
tates the surrounding skin. A small
bottle Of freezone will cost very lit
tie at any drug store, but will posi-
lively remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. Mil
lions Of American women will wei
come this announcement since the
inauguration of the high heels. If
your druggist doesn't have freezone
tell him to order a small bottle for

schools in progressive communi-
ties?" We would like to know what
the taxpayer Of the city Of Able
vile think of paying nearly a thous-
and dollars for running rural graded
schools in progressive communi-
ties," when not q dollar of this mon
ey will be spent in Abbeville county
even, we fear?
We had supposed that "progres-
sive communities" able to employ
four or five teachers, and with an
enrolment of one hundred pupils,
would be able at least to pay their
own obligations and run their own
schools, but it seems not. We are
first taxing the people Of the state,
including the progressive communi,
ties" in the sum Of sixty thousand
dollars in order to help the "weak''
schools; and next we tax the peo'
ple of the state including the pa
irons of the "weak" schools, one
hundred and eighty-seven thousand
dollars to support the schools in
the progressive communities"
On top of this. comes the PROPOSE,
ton to vote a. further tax Of two
mills on this school district for the
purpose of paying more teachers
higher salaries without even the pre-,
tense of having a petition from the
|free-holders of the district. In other
words the people who will pay the
greater part of this proposed tax'
are to be called upon to pay it with
out any voice whatever in the mat
ter, either by way of petition, vote
or otherwise. If our schools are SO
much in need Of money that we must
pay an additional tax Of two mills,
it does seem to US that we are pay
ing enough without being called up.
ON to pay another one and one-halt
mills to support "weak" schools
and rural graded schools in PRO
gressive communities"
There must be some limit to tax
alton somewhere. The state levy
has been raised two mills and the
county levy one mill, we believe
Now it has been decreed that we
shall pay an additional tax Of two
mills to the schools, and we are
threatened with library tax OF one
thousand dollars per year for twenty
five wears. We have an automobile
tax, a license tax, corporation taxes
two kinds Of income taxes, q DOG
tax, and every other tax known to
the Imagination of non-tax-paylns
legislative bodies. The time mas
come to call a halt, and the way 70
do it is to vote against every man
who favors such impositions upon
the public. If this is an education

IT'S EASY.

Il is a mighty easy thing to rur
the County into debt The time has
come when there should be more
care given TO the matter of expen'
ses. We are running our affairs
with too much extravaganza. The
tax levy has gone far beyond the
limit, not only in Greenwood coun'
ty, but all over the State. We are
payine . tax rate now that would
make the old time radical rule In
South Carolina blush. Every year
the tax rate is raised, and on and
on we are going until it will get 50
that people can not. afford to own
property. It will have to be turned
over to the government for It to
take and make the best Of it in or
der to get revenue. We are fast
approaching the verge Of confisca'
ton.
But it seems that no one cares.
There are people sitting up in offices
in sky scrapers who never ran a fur
row in their lives whose sole ambi-
ton seems to be to devise plans for
securing more taxes out Of the peo-
ple. And to the shame be it said OF
some newspapers the cry OF parsl-
mony is applied to the State for not
spending more of the peoples money
in extravagant and unreasonable ap,;
