AN APPEAL FOR THE RED CROSS

wound is not fatal Red Cross con-
valescing station will take care of |
the soldier till he is ready to go back |
to the front. II the man Is disabled |
n Red Cross steamer will bring him |
back to America, and the Red Cross |
receiving station here will care for
him, senN him home and on top of
that look after his family after he Is
wounded just as 1t will have looked
after his family all the time he has
been away.
Do you know what this means? In
the old days before the Red Cross
came, 600 soldiers died out OF every
1000 wounded. Today under proper
conditions the percentage is not over
5 per cent.
II your boy was wounded every dol
lar you have in the world would go
willingly to put him in Red Cross
hands. Sixty thousand Los Angeles
boys registered June for the draft.
How many of them will require Red
Cross aid within the next two years?
The Red Cross is not a hit or miss
organization, grabbing a dollar here
and a dollar there and wasting the
money. 1t Is one of the Ave offensive
!, and defensive arms of every civilized
} government on the face of the earth.
: Every dollar that comes in Is spent
by the best business men in America
for supplies and materials designated
: by the medical department of the
United States army-the department
that has stamped out yellow fever as
well as other great national scourges
Ex-President Taft is the chairman
, of the Red Cross. A partner in the
! house of Morgan is its financial chief
: Its accounts are audited by the wal

these men should have registered and
their neglect to do so after all the
warnings is proof presumptive Of a
deliberate intention to set the law OF
the country at naught. There are Ger.
tain statutes the breaking OF which
is no more than a yenial offense, but
to defy the military registration law.
especially in time OF war, is so close
TO treason that IT requires an expert in
the country's laws to draw the fine
line OF separation.
The country has come forward as
was expected OF It and Ii Is believed at
Washington that very few young men
have failed to hand in their names.
Those that have failed, however, must
be made examples OF and they will be.
The offenders have no excuse. II en-
titled to exemption they had only to
state that fact and. should their claim
be upheld by the examining board,
they would not have to serve. The
fact that they seek to avoid registra-
ton altogether raises the presumption
that they had no grounds to be ex-
cused.
1t is a criticism OF America. unfort-
unately too well-deserved, that our
laws are not enforced as they should
be. Too many are notable for obsery-
ance rather in the breach than in the
observance. This cannot be allowed
in the present instance. Men who
have failed to register through their
own deliberate effort to avoid the
duty must be punished to the full ex-
tent of the law.-Gazette.

All want to Try new drug that

lift out.

Good news spreads rapidly and drug
gists here are kept busy dispensing
freezone, the ether discovery of Gin
cinnat man, which is said to loosen
any corn so It lifts out with the fingers.
Ask at any pharmacy for quarter
ounce Of freeZone, which will cost very
little, but Is said to be sufficient to rid
ones feet of every hard or soft corn
or callus.
You apply just few drops on the
tender. aching corn and instantly the
soreness Is relieved. and soon the corn
is so shriveled that it lifts out with
out pain. It Is sticky substance,
which dries when applied and never
infiames or even irritates the adjoin-
ing tissue.
This discovery will prevent thous-
ands Of deaths annually from lockjaw
and infection heretofore resulting from
the suicidal habit of cutting corns.
