How to Overcome ;
Foot Troubles

II you have tired, burning. ach-
ing feet, corns, or painful CAL
luuses. you know only too well the
misery and torture they bring.
1t is unnecessary, however, TO suf-
fer longer with any of these foot
troubles.
Go to your druggist and get a
small jar of Ice-Mint. Rub a little
of this cooling, healing discovery
on your tired. aching, corn-pes-
tered. swollen feet. Instantly the
pain of the corns and callouses
vanishes. And shortly the most
stubborn and painful hard corns,
soft corns. Corns between the toes.
or aching callouses. will shrivel
up and lift out easily with the fin
gers, root and all.
Ice-Mint costs little, is easy and
delightful to apply. and aside from
removing every painful corn or
callous will keep your feet cool,
easy and comfortable even on the
hottest days. Try it, There is moth
ing better.-Adv.

DANISH ISLES
NOW BELONG TO
UNITED STATES

washington, Jan. 17.-Sovereignty
over the Danish West hides after halr
q century of negotiation passed to-
day to the United States with the, ex-
change of ratiflcations of the pur-
chase treaty by Secretary Lansing
and Danish Minister Brun. The ac-
tual physical transfer, with the rails
ing of the American flag, will take
place upon the payment of $25,OO0,-
upon payment of $4,000, 0O0ETAOIN
600 purchase price, which congress
will provide in a few weeks.
During the interim, the government
OF the islands will be administered by
the present Danish governor. Under
the treaty a joint commission will ar
range the details of the transfer.
The permanent form of government
and name must be arranged by con-
gress, probably on the lines OF the
Foraker act under which Porto Rico
was acquired. AS the new group was
acquired primarily because Of its
strategic importance as a naval base,
the navy department is anxious to
be placed in absolute control under
a tenure as exists in the island of
Guam. The war department, how
ever, being already equipped with
proper machinery for administering
insuIar possessions through the insu-
lar bureau which controls the Philip
pines is likely to put in claim for
the administration.
ID is probably that joint board OF
army and navy officers will be sent
to the islands soon to concert mea-
sures for the military protection OF
the group and for the immediate es-
tablishment of a naval station.

publican national committee called
together a subcommittee Of the Re-
publican executive committee. The
result of this meeting was the issu-
ance Of resolutions adopted for the
purpose Of forming a supplemental
committee to be composed Of Repub-
licans and Progressives to have a
voice in party affairs. This would take
the place of the joint Republican
Progressive campaign committee
which went out of existence after the
election.
Almost simultaneously with Mr..
Willcox's announcement of this plan
at the Union League club, Mr.. Per-
kins at his home around the corner
issued a statement attacking the Re-

Willcox's subcommittee ON harmony
but at the same time defending Mr..
Wilcox. Mr.. Perkins declared that

Finally, when he saw the harmony
plan proposed by this committee he
declared that it had been dictated by
James e. Hemenway, of Indiana, who
he called one of the "Old Guard"
Mr.. Perkins added that he regarded
the resolutions merely as a scrap Of
paper"

Mr.. Delano discussed THE Railway
Problem"
He explained that while twenty-nine
years of railway experience had made
him sympathetic with the railroad

as member of a government admins

sympathize also with the public
regulative bodies.
Mr.. Delano conceded that serious
errors of judgment had been made
and great injustices done both to the
public and to the investor, asserting
that "If we had to do it over again
