SEEMS EVERYONE
HEARD ABOUT IT
All Want to Try New Drug That Dries
Up Corns So They Lift
Out.

Good news spreads rapidly and drug
gists here are kept busy dispensing
freezone the recent discovery of Gin
cinnatti man, which is said to loosen any
corn so it lifts out with the fingers.
A quarter of an ounce costs very little
ait any pharmacy, but is said to be suf-
ficient to rid ones feet of every hard or
soft corn or eallous.
You apply just few drops on the ten
der, aching corn and instantly the sore
ness is relieved, and soon the corn is so
shriveled that it lifts out without pain.
1t is a sticky substance which dries when
applied and never infames or even irri-

WHEAT MARKET ECCENTRIC.
Weak Opening and Further Decline, Fol-
lowed by General Upturn.

Chicago, April l9--Enlarged estimates
of the amount of wheat available in Can
ada had bearish effect yesterday on the
market here, but efforts to buy May de-
livery disclosed that offerings were scarce
and led to a sharp rally.
Opening prices, which ranged from the
same as Tuesdays finish to 3A lower,
were followed by additional declines and
general upturn. Corn moved with
wheat. Oats averaged higher. May
wheat closed at s2.321a bushe, a net
gain for the day of sha cents. May corn,
closing at $l.4lA showed net gain OF
3A cents.

Night.

Portsmouth, N. H.. April lo-Citizens

WARNS SHIPPING OF U-BoAT.
Notice Sent Broadcast After Attack on
Destroyer Smith.

Washington, April Warning of
the probable presence of a German sub
marine off the Atlantic coast was sent
broadcast to all ships upon receipt at the
nay department of the report from the
destroyer Smith, on patrol duty, that a
torpedo had crossed her bows during the
night.
No further word came from the Smith,
and navy officials, some of whom are
strongly inclined to the belief that the
destroyer's lookout was mistaken in his
belief that he saw the wake of tor
pedo, are awaiting additional reports.
