Cincinnati man discovers drug that lOoscns cOrns s0 they drop
 out

Local druggists are having a tre- mendous call for. freezone, the drug which is said to shrivcl corn, root and all, without any pain.
 A few drops applied directly upon a tender, aching corn relieves the sore ness at once, and shortly the entire corn, root and all, lifts right out with the fingers.
 This new drug is being dispensed at small cost in quarter ounce bottles, which is sufficient to take off every hard or soft corn from ones feet. It is q sticky substance which dries at once, and does not inflame or even ir- ritate the surrounding tissue or skin. There is no excuse for anyone invit- ing death by infection or lockiaw from cutting their corns now.-Advt.

Washington, Jan. l3.--America's

put at 90l,223 gross tons in reports
made to the shipping board. This was
nearly double that of 1915 and almost
half of the worlds output Of 1895, ,o43

Figures showing construction In
other countries III 1917 have not been
received in this country. the shipping
board officials brficve America led
the world in tonnage output. England
and Japan, they say, probably were
the only countries that increased their
production over that Of 1916. J.
Sinking by submarines in 1917 are
generally reckoned at 100000 tons,
probably about twice as much tonnage
as was built. England now is building
ships at a fast rate and Japan also
has increased its construction, but just
now operations are hampered by lack
of steel. Other countries are building
few ships.
The shipping board today decided
to remove from the Great Lakes an
additional 80 ships for ocean service.
The vessels will be cut in half this
winter and will be removed through
the Welland canal and re-assembled
when navigation is resumed in the
spring. Already AZ ships have been

TO FOUNDATION
New Gift Is to Preserve Prin-
cipaI Of Great Fund From
Drains of War Relief
Work.

New York, Jan. 13.-Jotn D. Rock
efeller gave $5,500,000 to the Rookie
feller Foundation last week to pre-
serve the principal OF the Founda-
TONS endowment. ..
The gift was made to enable the
Foundation to meet increasing de-
mands upon its funds arising from
its participation, in war relief and
activities ar1ong, soldiers and seamen.
Mr.. Rockfeller's announced gifts
to the Foundation, established by him
"for the good of mankind" amount
now to $l31 ,26s, SOC, including his lat
est gift. The. original endowment
was $l00,000,000. In May. 1917, he
gave $25,765,506 to the Foundation
to cover its war relief expenditures.
The gift, however, proved insult
ficient.
The board of trustees, with Mr..
Rockfeller's consent, spent $5,000000
Of the principal then made available.
Up to August last, according to the
Foundations report, its war relief
expenditures from the beginning of
last year were $6,425,872. From
August to the end of 1917 it is be-
lieved this was increased to $15,000,-
900.
"In view of the increasing demands
upon the Foundation, arising in con-
nection with the war, and having in
mind particularly the large contribu-
tons made to the American Red
Cross war fund and the war work of
the Young Mems Christian associa-
tion,' Mr.. Rockefeller wrote in his
letter to the Foundation. II endorse
herewith my check for $5,500,000, to
be used as the Foundation may see fit
for furthering its corporate purposes" "
DR.. George R. Vincent, president
of the Foundation, in making the an
nouncement of Mr.. Rockfeller's gift,
said it was hoped the addition to the
Foundations fund would make it un-
necessary to draw further upon the
Foundations principal. in addition
to the income and $5,000,00 of the
principal expended in 1917, the
trustees Of the Foundation gave au-
thority to expend a second $5,000,-
600 of the principal if that became
necessary.
