WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply few drops then lift corns or
calluses off with fingers
No pain,

No humbug! Amy corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out, without
particle Of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is
a compound of ether discovered by a
Cincinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for q small
bottle of freezone. which will cost but
trifle, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. In
stnntly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or callus will 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 irritating the surround
ing skin.
Just think! No pain ut nil; nc
soreness or smarting when applying
it or afterwards. If your druggist
don't have freezone have him order
it for you.

STAGGERING COST
OF CONFLICT TOLD
Berlin Paper Says Europe Could
Have Been Made Paradise
With Expcnditur

Berlin, August 1.-THE Berlincr
Tageblatt sums up the results of the
war to date as follows:
War loans, $4,000 100000; loss in
dead and wounded, 24,O0O,OOO men;
killed, 100000 men; crippled for life
100000 men; loss through decrease
of birth rate in all belligercnt coun-
tries, 100000.
"Thc gold production of the world
during the last 500 years amounted
to $15,000000,0 or less than one
fifth of the cost of the awful world
war;" the paper continues. ain 50
godl pieces the $S7 1000 100000 raised
in war loans would form n belt that
could be wound around he earth nine
times. The funeral cortcge of T.
100000 men killed would reach from
Paris to Vladvostok, if one hearse
followed the other.
"When the war began the combin-
ed public debt of all European states
was little over S25, 900 100000, and
now it is over $ll2,O00,000, 900. Tho
British merchant fleet in 1914 repre-
scented value Of about 100000, 900.
That is less than the annual interest
England now has to pay for her war
debt. Before the war Germany ex-
ported Goods to the amount OF S113,-
100000 per year to the British col
onies. BY cutting off this export,
England can eventually reimburse
herself for her losses, but this will
take more than 200 years.
Germany, with the amount spent
by her for the war could have bought
all the cotton fields, the copper mines
and the whole petroleum industry of
the United States. and still would
have had several billion dollars left
over. Russia, with her war expenses
might have covered her immense ter
ritories with net of railways as
close as that of Belgium, and France
whose losses in men are larger than
the entire male population of Alsacc-
Lorraine, could have bought all of the
Portuguese and Dutch colonies with
the money she sacrificed in the war.
with the enormous wearth de-
sstroyed by the war, Europe might
have been made paradise on earth
instead of a bowling wilderness,
There is no doubt that the awful
struggle would have boon avoided II
the nations had had any idea of its
enormlty when it started"

Summer Complaint. .

During the hot weather of the
summer months some member of al
msss every family is likely TO be
troubled with an unnatural loosensss
of the bowels, and it is of the great
est Importance that this be treated

HOW LONG DO YOUR CLOTHES
LIVE?

The collar has fragile constitu-
ton. The length of its life depends
upon how gently it is treated and
how often it is washed. New collars
will bear starching and washing 40
times before they begin to crack at
the edges. Collars in use can stand
the trip through the laundry only
twenty times. This shows that ac-
tual use accounts for about half the
life of IL collar, and wear in the laun-
dcring the other half.

flag should have been used as a shield
by such gunner as held forth in Lud-
low, Colo, during the miners strike
there a few years ago. When such
men as these, who shot down women

men (as testimony shows they did,
are allowed the protection of the stars

contempt that is held by some folks
for that flag and the government to
which it belongs? .Altho we believe

BIG PATRIOTIC MEETING AT BUCK
CREEK.

The Methodist church at Buck
Creek was the scene of a rousing meet
ing on Sunday night. 1t was announ-
ced beforehand that a number of Man
chester men would be on hand to
give talks on subjects which are up
permost in the minds Of, the American
people at the, present time, namely
the question of feeding hungry world
Buck Creek is farming community
which is in the front rank, and the
Methodist church there serves as a
social center as we'll as church CEN
ter. Subjectes of vital interest to the
farmers were discussed, and at the
Sunday night meeting the question Of
food production was ably handled in
addresses by DR.. N. D. Wilson, sec
retary of the Manchester Commercial
club, and A. NJ Cloud, F. G. NAPLES,
also of Manchester, and the Rev. Mr.
Chalice, pastor of the church. Editor
w. S. Beels of Hopkinton, also gave
a short talk The church was crowd
ed to the doors, and the meeting prov
ed one of the most interesting ever
held in that celebrated country church.

AN EXPLANATION.

In last weeks issue of The Demo-
crat appeared the annual report of the
city manager, and because of mis-
understanding of one item which was
not set out plainly we make this ex-
planation. This item pertains to the
compensation which the members of
the city council receive during the
year. In the report it shows that
each OF the five councilmen drew war
rants for $50, supposing that that was
the salary fixed by the ordinance. It
was later discovered that the ordi-
nance allows as compensation $1.OO
per meeting up to fifty meetings, DUR
ing the year. Since there were not
nearly fifty meetings held during the
year. Councilmen Cowles, Hockaday,
Dorman and Dunham returned to the
city the difference between the fifty
dallars drawn and the amount as bas-
ed on the dollara meeting up to fifty
meetings. The item as published gave
only the initials of the four council
men who made the refund, and unless
the reader took the trouble to
place the initials where they belonged,
he would hardly know what the refund
of $1OO referred to. E. E. Cowles re-
funded SIS, having attended rs meet
ings; Mr.. Hockaday refunded $23, he
having attended 81 meetings; Mr..
Dorman refunded $27, he having at
tended % meetings, and Mr.. Dunham
refunded $25, he having attended Is
meetings. This explanation is made
because of the impression that seems
to be out that the councilmen re-
ceived more in salaries than they
were entitled to receive.

WINTER EGGS AT SUMMER PRICE
Preserving Eggs by Waterglassing
Is One Step in Thrift Program.

One step in the thrift program
which can be taken right now by the
housewife is the waterglassing of
eggs to preserve them for winter use,
suggest the poultry men at Iowa State
college, 1t costs but a cent a dozen
to preserve eggs by this method,
which will keep them in good condi-
tion for more than a year. They can
be used to replace strictly fresh
eggs for nearly all purposes.
Buy waterglass, which costs from
60c to 81 a gallon, at any drug store;
stir part by measure into II parts
of boiled water, either hot or cold.
If mixed hot, allow mixture to cool
before using. Use only fresh, clean,
unwashed, sound eggs; infertile
eggs are best. The best quality eggs
are laid in April and May. Discard
all dirty, stale, cracked and thin
shelled eggs and all eggs that float
in the mixture.
Use an earthenware glass or wood
en-, but not a metal container. Scald
the vessel with hot water before US
ing it. Then fill it about half full with
the waterglass mixture and carefully
lay the eggs in this. Keep the liquid
at least two inches above the eggs at
all times. Place in cool, we'll ven
tilated place, such as a cellar. One
gallon of waterglass will make enough
mixture to preserve rs dozen eggs.
