you'll have $50 Overcoat next season.

IS the one commanded by Vivian Mar tin. Possibly this is because Vivian is such an adorable captain that no one wants to serve under any other commander; and then again the true reason may be that the original Girls Aviation Corps was organized for the sole purpose of producing a Paramount photoplay entitled "Her Country First"
 Even at that the organization went far enough to prove that the thing is perfectly feasible. Furthermore, didn't Ruth Law fly from Chicago to New York before the art of aviation was nearly so well developed as it is now? When 1t comes to psychological equipoise, the supreme factor in avia- tion, young girls are far ahead of the boys. As for sheer nerve the girl who

 Vivian was born near Grand Rapids, Mich, not so very long ago-so recent ly, in fact, that she looks and acts like sixteen.

Three of them died in this work. The three surviving English doctors make this shocking report. No appliances of any kind, no mattresses. dressings, band ages, stimulants. or soap, were fur nished them.
 A German doctor, named Aschen- bach, whose name will doubtless go down in history, is said to have been sent by the kaiser to investigate. Hooded, masked and clothed to avoid danger, he stood at the wire gate of the inclosure for an hour to ask Ques- tions, for which courageous act he is reported to have received an iron cross.

 The Big Idee struck Vivian as the result of commencement day exercises, the feature of which was patriotic appeal by perfectly lovely captain. It struck her so hard that she got up before breakfast to telephone all her good looking girl friends, reserving the command for herself, of course.

At the German prison camp Witten- berg there were from 15,000 to 17,000 prisoners confined in a space of ten acres, surrounded by wire entangle- ments. At the end of 1914 typhus broke out among them, and the entire staff of German medical and military officers, nurses and guards, fled from the camp.
 From December, 1914, to August, 1915, a period of eight months, there was no direct communication between the prisoners and their guards. Food and collins were pushed over the wire fences through chutes. Six English

MEDAL FOR THIS
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
up any corn or callus so it
lifts right off

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says
this Cincinnati authority, because a
few drops of freezone applied direct
ly on tender, aching corn stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn loosens
SO it can be lifted out, root and all,
without a bit of pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freezone
costs very little at any drug store,
but is sufficient to take off every hard
or soft corn or callus. This should be
tried, as it is inexpensive and is said
not to inflame or even irritate the sur
rounding tissue or skin.
If your wife wears high heels she
will be glad to know of this.

LEMONS MAKE SKIN
WHITE, SOFT, CLEAR
Make this beauty lotion for a few
cents and see for yourself

What girl or woman hasn't heard of
lemon juice to remove complexion
blemishes; to whiten the skin and to
bring out the roses, the freshness and
the hidden beauty? But lemon juice
alone is acid, therefore irritating, and
should be mixed with orchard white
this way. Strain through fine cloth
the juice Of two fresh lemons into a
bottle containing about three ounces
of orchard white, then shake we'll and
you have whole quarter pint Of skin
and complexion lotion at about the
cost one usually pays for a small jar
of ordinary cold cream. Be sure to
strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets
into the bottle, then this lotion will re-
main pure and fresh for months.
When applied daily to the face, neck,
arms and hands it should help to
bleach, clear, smoother and beautify
the skin.
Any druggist will supply three
ounces of orchard white at very lit
tie cost and the grocer has the lemons.

THE GREAT OPPORTUNITY
(ByIBooth Harrington, creator of that

famous fiction characters.)

When we intrust our savings to a
bank, we like to know that it's sound
bank. We feel safe then to leave our
money in charge of that bank and it's
officers. They will use it in various
ways which seem good to them, but we
will get it all back, if the bank is
sound. Yet no bank in the United
States of America can be as sound as
the United States itself. Therefore,
when the United States Government
turns banker, the safest place for our
money to be put is in the hands of
this Government. Anybody can see
that, without bothering to look twice.
Uncle Sam himself will take care of
our money, and we'll get it back. We
know that. His word is so good that
we can get the money back whenever
we need it, because his bonds will sell,
any time, for just about what we pay
for them. A few years hence, of
course, they will sell for more than we
pay for them.

money with Uncle Sam-what we call
