Let folks step on your feet hereafter
Wear shoes a size smaller If you like
for corns will never again send electric
sparks or pain through you, according
to this Cincinnati authority,
He says that a few drops OF drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn, instantly relieves
soreness, and soon the entire corn, root
and all, lifts right out.
This drug Is a sticky ether compound,
but dries at once and simply shrivels
up the corn without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue.
1t Is claimed that quarter of an
ounce Of freezone obtained at any drug
store will cost very little. but is suffl-
cient to remove every hard or soft corn
or callus from ones feet. Cut this out,
especially if you are woman reader
who wears high heels.

APPEALS FROM PULPIT.
Food Administrator Hoover Has
Pastors Urge Further Conse rvation

Pastors of all the churches thruout
the state of Iowa Sunday We're asked
by Food Administrator H. c. Hoover
TO appeal to their congregat IONS for d
further conservation of wheat -four,
meat, and sugar.
The message was summarized under
the program of total abstinence OF
wheat -four until harvest, when pos
sible; reduction Of the meat ration for
each person over years of age to two
pounds per week, not as the meat IS
trimmed and exclusive Of bones, but
as it comes directly from the market;
and the restriction Of the use of sugar
to a degree making It certain that
there will be a sufficient supply for
canning and preserving.
There is no order from the office of
the national administrator to this
effect, but he Is making the appeal
directly to the people as voluntary
and patriotic act.
In connection with the request as to
the limiting of meat allowances, the
use of meat refers also to poultry and
includes it with the other meats con-
sumed during a week.

SOMEBODY BLUNO[REO;
 II WAS THE PRU5S|hNS
Germany Went Wrong in Estimating the English, French and
 Americans.

Lack of understanding of other na- tions, of other peoples, has ever been the predominant weakness of the Prussian militarists. Posing as lead. CTS in philosophy and psychology they have nevertheless failed completely in their analysis of human nature in any people outside their own bound. ary lines of dominion
 They misunderstood the French They blundered in their estimate of the English. They muddled their dealings with the Russians And the world at large now knows how far they missed reading us alright. They thought us a nation of money grub bers, of apologists rather than fight CTS, and even yet they are refusing to eoncede their mistake. But they know better in their own hearts.
 Uncle Sams first rude disturbance of the Prussian serenity was his dec laration of war His second shock to Prussian confidence was the rapid fire manner in which he began the up building of his armed forces. Then came the tremendous over-subscrip- tion of the first Liberty Loan, an al together unexpected performance. And when this was repeated in the second Liberty Loan drive 1t was real ly appalling.
 Now the Prussian interest is cen tered upon what the American people are going to do for the Third Liberty Loan in the face of recent events at the front While the American troops along the firing line are emphasizing our spirit and determination with 75- centimeter guns, howitzers, machine guns, hand grenades, rifles and auto matics 1t is up to us at home to do our shelling with dollars.
 Ours Is by far the easier task. It has no savor of danger. On the COT trary it is precaution against the pos sihle menace of the future. It is sow ing seeds of security where they will grow to the benefit of both ourselves and our country.
 It is one of the greatest, the noblest, the most patriotic opportunities ever offered the American people.

 There are about 2.000,000 men now under arms. training to fight, and 1t takes lot of money to feed. eiothe. transport and equip such force or consumers who previously were selr- supportfng.

The only nossibIe source of ready cash is to borrow from those who have It.
 The farmers have shown their energy in producing the largest crops and have endured hardships due to shortage of help. and l. believe they will loan to Uncle Sam every dollar they can spare, thus giving full sup mort tc the farmers sons who are ready to make the supreme sacrihce, that We may not be conquered oy such foe as Germany.
