USE "TIz" IF FEET ACHE, BURN, PUFF UP TIRED, SWOLLEN, cALLoUsED
 FEET OR cORNS

You can be happy footed in a moment. Use "Tiz" and never suffer with tender, raw, burning, blistered, swollen, tired, smelly feet. "Tiz" and out of corns, ca1louses and bunions.
 As soon as you put your feet in Q '"Tiz' bath you just feel the happiness soaking in. How good your poor, old feet feel. They want to dance for joy. "Tiz" is grand. "Tiz" instantly draws out all the poisonous exudations which puff up your feet and cause sore, infiamed, aching, sweaty, smelly feet
 Get a 2S-cent box of 'Tiz" at any drug store or department store. Get instant foot relief. Laugh at foot 8uf- ferers who complain. Because your feet are never, never going to bother or make you limp any more.

There were about 140 raiders who swooped down upon the calvarymen who mum bered about 40. Jack had just about discounted, the horse having been sent to the rear when he was struck in the neck by a bullet The bullet followed downward course and lodged in his side. When struck Jack jumped up and as he did so he was moved to earth by another bullet which struck him in the right lief, near the kneecap.

 One satisfaction Jack has is that before he was earthed he took twelve shots at the intruders.

BOSS sARsERs ASK
 SHOPS BE LICENSED
Claim Present Licensing Law Joke
 and Ask Better Supervision.

The master barbers of Connecticut have addressed a communication to the legislative committee on public health and safety in which they term the present "barbers" licensing law "a joke" and suggest that barber shops be placed under the supervis- ion of the board of health. The last paragraph of the communication says:
 "If we must have license why not have the shop and not the barber licensed? Let the boss continue with the sanitary condition of the shop as he does now, and do away with the commissioner and their salaries so that we can run our business. You do not have to have competent bar bers to inspect barber shop. Any board of health officer might find some of our barber commissioner shops in unsanitary conditions. As we said before, it is a unon law and a law for three commissioners to get excessive salaries"
