MINIATURE ALMANAC,

ccivinE $50 per week would deposit 81
per week in tho bank. the bank loan
ing him $50 TO buy the bond through
the bank. which bond would be held
as security for the loan. The bank
would charge ( per cent ger annum
interest on the $40 for the nrst week,
per cent interest on s4S for tho sec
ond week, and so on. When the fif-
tic,h week had passed. and $50 had
been paid TO the bank the $50 Liberty
loan would .be delivered to the pur-
chaser.
by this method the bank is fully
secured, and is encouraging bank de-
posts in great numbers, many OF
which will continue after the year
has passed; the wagc-earncr is forcing
himself TO a species of compulsory saw
inS and securing a high-grade OF I'm
restmcnt at per cent net. which Is
equal to perhaps . per cent under the
new tax laws; the Liberty loan is
placed where IL belongs. in the hands
of the people. and by this method will
probably be considerably over-sub-
scrlbed"
1t is said for the plan. by Governor
Whitman, OF New York, and others,
that it will insure the bulk OF the
bonds being purchased out Of what
may he called savings OF the people
instead of the reserves OF banks and
private bankers The effect of this
will be. il is believed. that the money
market will not be disturbed, and the
loan can be absorbed without financial
disturbance OF any kind.

Corns or Calluses Off With
Fingers-No Pain.

No humbugi Any corn, wheth

Will loosen right up and lift out,
without a particle Of pain or
soreness.
This drug is called freezone
and Is a compound of ether dis
coverd by a Cincinnati man.
Ask any drug store for a
small bottle of freezone, which
viii cost but trifle, but is suffi-
cient to rid ones feet Of every
corn or callus.
Put a few drops directly upon
any tender, aching corn or callus.
Instantly the soreness disappears
and shortly the corn or callus
viii loosen and can be lifted off
with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat
out the corns or calluses but
shrivels them without even irri-
tating the surrounding skin.
