The Women

The hand that rocks the cradle may rule the world all right, but the wom- an who is competent to handle finan- cial matters is able to take good care of herself which at times may be as important to her, as the question Of ruling the world.
 Many women today are good finan- oilers. They understand all aH5ut handling money. Many of them keep their own accounts at our bank. Other women might profitably follow their example. It's fine of course to depend upon husband, father. brother or some other friend to save you the care of handling money matters, but the relative you depend on may not be with you always. What would happen then? We invite all the la dies to open little account with us no matter how small. The experi- ence will be helpful.

When Sumner Scored.

Once when Charles Sumner was in London he gave ready reply. At a dinner given in his honor he spoke Of "the ashes" of some dead hero. "Ashes! What American English '" rudely broke in an Englishman; "dust, you mean, Mir. Sumner. We don't burn our dead in this country" "Yet," in- Stantly replied MT. Sumner, with a courteous smile, ''your poet Gray tells us that Even iii our ashes live their wonted fires.'" The American was not criticized again that evening.

out Pain.

You reckless men and women who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authoti'
ty to use a drug called greezone
which the moment a few drops are
applied to any corn or callus the sore
ness is relieved and soon the entire
corn or callus, root and all, lifts of
with the fingers.
Freezone dries the moment it is
applied, and simply shrivels the corr
or callus without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue OF
skin. A small bottle of freezone viii
cost very little at any of the drug
stores, but will positively rid ones
feet of every hard or soft corn OF
hardened callus. If your druggist
hasn't any freezone he can get it at
any wholesale drug house for you.-
