MAJESTIC THEATRE.

Thursday will find another old fav-
orite at the Majestic Theatre, in the
person of William Farnum, who ap-
pears in drama, entitled, 1.-THE Man
Of Sorrow" The part gives Farnum
a chance for that strong forceful act
ing, at which he is so adept. The
story is interesting. with many a
thrill.
On Friday Bessie Love comes in
1.-THE Heiress at Coffee DAMS, in
which she plays the part of "Waffles, -
a little Swedish girl She is a little
waif and sings ham and" at Coffee
Dams, until a bunch Of crooks dis
cover she is an heiress. The story
from this point on, is one of constant
suspense, fun and excitement.
In "The Sin Ye Do" coming next
Tuesday, Frank keenan, plays the
part Of noted criminal lawyer In
the part he is forced to beg for his
own life, from man he has wronged
in order that he may defend his own
daughter. The story is that of a
change in a strong mans character
thru sheer force of circumstances.

WONDERFUL Stuff
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply q few drops then lift oorns Or
cailuses off with tinoer-
no pain.

No humbug! Any 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 freesone and il .
compound Of ether discovered BY . Gin
cinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
a trifle, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or cal1us.
Put a few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. instantly
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 with
out even irritating the surrounding akin.
Just think! No pain at all; NO sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your druggist don't have
freezone have him order it for you.
