SUFFERING CATS!
GIVE THIS MAN
THE GOLD MEDAL

No humbugl Any corn, whether
hard, soft or between the toes, will
loosen right up and lift out without
u 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 small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
a trifle, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callous.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callous. In
stantly the soreness disappears and
shortly the corn or callous will loosen
and can be lifted Off with the fingers
This drug freezone doesn't eat out
the corns or callouses but shrivels
them without even irritating the sur.
rounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying 1t or
afterwards. II your druggist don't
have freezone have him order 1t for
you.-AdY,

many and many thousands of dollars
would wander away from the turn
stiles.
The "aces" are the biggest assets the
magnates can boast of, and If you will
lamp the rosters Of the sixteen major
league clubs you win find at least one
player on nearly every roster who fig-
ures as the real drawing card of the
team on the road.
Tyrus Raymond Cobb is the greatest
drawing card in the business. He Is
worth more to Detroit on the road than
all the rest Of her players put together,
for the fans in rival towns go out large.
ly to see Cobb, unless the Tigers are
up there fighting for Il pennant, and
the rablds in small towns within easy
riding distance Of the big league cities
never miss n chance to be on the job
when Cobb is billed to cavort at the
ball park. SO Cobb alone is worth
thousands of dollars to Detroit at the
turnstiles in the course Of season.

Take Tip From Old Mother
Nature When in Doubt About
Time to Plant Your Garden

From the United States Department of
Agriculture.)
By watching the processes Of moth
er nature and taking tip from her,
the home gardener who is not certain
when he should plant his seeds may get
some valuable information. Garden
specialists divide vegetables into two
classes - warm temperature" and
"cold temperature" vegetables. When
peach and plum trees are in blossom,
they say, it is time to sow in the open
ground such seeds as lettuce, radish,
parsley beets, turnips, cabbage, Gag
rots, peas, and onions. The wrinkled
peas should not be planted until later,
as they are more likely to rot In cool
ground than are the smooth varieties.
When the apple blossoms fall 1t is
time to plant the heat-loving vege-
tables, such as cucumbers, beans,
sweet corn, pumpkin, and squash.
This is said to be an old but excellent
rule.

The Sky Garden.

The great sky is a garden fair,
And In the velvet gloom,
At night, among the meadows there,
The starry flowers bloom.
Forget -me-not and violet
Are stars so very small
That often one must look and look.
To see them there at all.
The lovely rose-star blossoms near
The sunfiower bold and bright;
The buttercup and daisy stars
Wink saucily all night.
The red moon is the gardener
Who tends the starry lawn.
And smiles benignly Ger 1t all
Until the break of dawn.
And so they blossom all night through.
And never, never die;
These myriads of flowers
In the garden of the sky.
