WAR USES FOR FACTORIES
Manufacturers Surprised to Find What
Can Be Made in Their Plants In
Case of Emergency.

Here is paragraph, shipped out of
an article by George Creel in Every
bOdy's Magazine, which shows the war
uses to which various peaceful manu-
factories can be subjected:
"A manufacturing jeweler was sur
prised to learn that his plant, with
a few changes, could turn out peri
scopes; sash-chain maker found
that his machines were adapted
to the production of cartridge clips
for rifles and machine guns; a phonO-
graph concern was discovered to be
we'll fitted for the manufacture Of GER
tain delicate shell parts; makers of
underwear may be relied on for ban
dages; manufacturer Of music-rOlls
for gauges a cream-separatOr plant for
shell-primers a sewing machine COM
pany for gaines; a recording and COM
putting machine plant for fuses; an
infants food concern for shell plugs
drug manufacturers and dye works for
high explosives; finished shells may be
expected from candle-makers, flour
millers, tobacco manufacturers, and
siphon-makers silversmiths can make
cartridge-cases, bullet jackets, and
caps; while shrapnel can be made in
gas engine works, car factories, cleo
trio elevator works, locomotive works,
stove fOundries and machine shops"

Back to Earth,

We had friend who had been pret-
ty prosperous, but who came upon evil
days. We met him one day and he
said that he was pretty close to be-
ing busted, but he was still hoping.
Then he honked his horn, mOurnfully
and drove away, and we didn't see
him again till the other day when we
bumped into him on the street, says
the Cleveland Plaindealer.
"Hello, old scOut!" we said. "How
are things breaking now?"
"Fine!" he answered. "Pm on my
feet again"
"Bully" we exclaimed. "How did
you do it?"
"Sold my car"
The joke was so obvious that we
didn't see it till after he had gone.

With the Fingers!
Says Corns Lift Out
Without Any Pain

Sore corns, hard corns, soft corns or
any kind of corn can shortly be
lifted right out with the fingers if you
will apply on the corn few drops Of
freezone, says Cincinnati authority.
At little cost one can get small bot.
tie of freezone at any drug store, which
will positively rid ones feet of every
corn or callus without pain or sore
ness or the danger Of infection.
This new drug is an ether compound,
and dries the moment it is applied and
does not inflame or even irritate the
surrounding skin. Just think! You
can lift off your corns and calluses
now without a bit Of pain or soreness.
If your druggist hasn't freezone he can
easily get a small bottle for you from
his wholesale drug house.-adv.

Everything I ate soured on my stom-

would almost smother from the gas

My trouble became worse as I grew
older and I got to where I dreaded to
eat anything on account of the suffer
ing it caused me.
Il tried nearly every kind Of medi-
cine made for this trouble, but nothing
: did me any good. I fell off in weight
and was so weak that when night
came would be so tired could hardly
move. My brother in Pueblo told me
Of the fine results he had gotten from
Tanlac and advised me to try it. The
result is, I'm in better health now than
ever have been before since I can
remember. It's the first time since I
was child that can eat just any
thing want and enjoy it without suf-
fering afterwards.
II sleep well every night now and I
can do my work without getting the
least bit tired. I recommend Tanlac
to everybody because Of what it has
done for me, and I'm buying bottle
