If you are lame every morning and

cause. Often it is weak kidneys.
To strengthen the weakened kidneys
and avert more serious troubles, use
Doan's Kidney Pills. You can rely

WONDERFUL STUFF!
LIFT OUT YOUR CORNS
Apply few drops then lift corns or
calluses off with fingers
no pain.

No humbug! Any corn, whether hard,
soft or between the toes, will loosen
right up and lift out, without particle
of pain or soreness.
This drug is called freezone and is q
compound of ether discovered by Gin.
cinnati man.
Ask at any drug store for a small
bottle of freezone, which will cost but
trife, but is sufficient to rid ones
feet of every corn or callus.
Put few drops directly upon any
tender, aching corn or callus. Instantly
the soreness disappears and shortly the
corn or callus will loosen and can be
lifted off with the fingers.
This drug freezone doesn't eat out the
corns or calluses but shrivels them with
out even irritating the surrounding skin.
Just think! No pain at all; no sore
ness or smarting when applying it or
afterwards. If your druggist don't have
freezone have him order it for you.

HINDENBURG'S BIG
DRIVE IS STALLED

London, April 23.-The greatest
battle of all time will enter its sec
ond month at dawn Sunday.
Hindenburg started for Paris via
Armiens early on the morning of
March 81. He is stalled ten miles
east Of Amiens and more than IS
miles from the French capital
The greatest advance made by
him in this Picardy drive was little
more than 35 miles.
Hindenburg's main objective, of
course, was to drive wedge between
the British and French armies, roll
ing the former back upon the North
sea. There he intended to annihi-
late it at his leisure, after which he
would gobble up the French army
with whatever other allied forces
CHANGED to be south of the Somme.
But he boosted he would be in Paris
by April JUST three weeks ago.
Aside from the murderous casual
ties inflicted on the Germans and the
definite checking of the two great
est military assaults in history, the
greatest advantage accruing to the
allies as result of Hindenhurg's
drive has been the coordination of
strategy under Gen. Foch.
Foch was appointed commander

OF
FARM LAB0RERS

1t is announced that a new draft
of about 10000 men per month will
be called during the remainder Of
this year, and the provost marsha
general has ordered that men active.
ly, assidiously and completely en-.
gagged in the planting or cultivation
of a crop, but who are listed in class
one of the draft and come within the
new quota, should be deferred until
the end of the new quota.
To get the benefit of this new call
it is necessary that the men under
it make affidavits suggesting their
claims Farm boys should imme-
diately execute and file with their
local boards affidavits, showing that
they are completely engaged in the
planting and cultivation Of a crop.
Such affidavits should be signed by
two Of heree neighbors who have per-
sonal knowledge of the work in
which the man is engaged.
Young farmers should attend to
this at once. Those who fail to file
affidavits showing proof that they
are wholly engaged in farm work will
not be exempted or deferred if their
term should come in filling this
quota.
Farmers whose sons and hired
hands are in this class one should
have no hesitation in making out
and filing such affidavits, and they
should lose no time in doing so.
Form 1896, Provost Marshal Gen
erals office, together with Form
&C, which explains its use, may be
obtained from the local board. Far
mers whose sons or hired men have
already been called to camp, and who
wish them released on furlough for
farm work, should at once secure a
copy of Form 1885, execute it and
send it to the commander of the camp
where his son or hired man is now
located.
1t should be noted that furloughs
will not be granted to men who have
attained rank above that of first
sergeant, that such furloughs will be
for short periods only and largely
for seeding and harvest time; and
all furloughed men will be recalled
when their regiment is ordered over
seas.
AS wide publicity as possible,
through the press and otherwise,
should be given to those two matters
at once, so that the farmers of your
county can do what our government
expects of them in helping win the
war.

in-chief of the allied forces in France
on March %. Even before this was
officially announced, Gen Pershing
visited Foch at the front and placed
the entire American expeditionary
forces at his disposal. The Ameri-
can troops began to move toward
Picardy three days later. The first
announcement of their appearance
on the British front was made April
10.
The battle front has gradually
been extended northward until it has
included the southern portion of the
Belgian lines, just south of Dixmude.
The Germans, who began their main
attack against the British, therefore
are now fighting major forces Of
British, French, American, Canadian,
Belgian and Portuguese there.
Aside from the capture of Bailleul,
Wytschaete and Wolverghem, the
Germans have failed to make any
progress in Flanders during the past
week. The British fell back an aver
age of three miles on the front east
of Ypres, but this was entirely volun-
tary. Hays lines in Flanders have
been stiffened by the arrival of
limited number of French reserves.

week announcing the safe arrival of
his son, Mr.. Dorsey Price, in France.

Red Cross Box Supper
Our esteemed friend, Mr.. Wess
Wash, informs us that a fruitful
box supper was held by the Salem
W. 0, W. Circle last Saturday night
at the Salem Hall. A number of
boxes were sold, bringing about $18,
and a pone of very fine corn light
bread sold for $12, making near $40
from the evenings entertainment,
which goes to the Red Cross. Re-
Gently this community gave an en-
tertainment for the Red Cross which
brought in about $50. This goes to
show the loyalty of the Salem peo-
pie toward their boys in the army.
Every penny of these Red Cross
funds goes to the boys. Right now
more than at any other time the Red
Cross needs funds and all are urged
to be most liberal in their contribu-
tions.

But You Can't Rely on Sprays, Lotions and Salves - Get on the Right Treatment at
 Once

The very fact that Catarrh is often considered to be nothing more than bad head-cold or inflammation of the membranes of the nose and throat has caused many people to go through years of suffering, who might have been fully restored to health had they realized that the supposed cold in the head was not local trouble only, but that they had become infected with the germs of a complicated and dangerous disease.
 It is true that Catarrh usually be- gins with cold in the head, and this supposed cold may have been caused by infection through proximity to in fected persons in closed street car or room, inhaling the germs when someone coughed or sneezed; but, however the infection occurs, the poisons which are taken into your sys- tenn, ultimately find their way into your blood and the supposed cold be- comes constitutional trouble that will affect every part of your body. The poisoned blood circulating through your system will carry these germs to the very source of your vii tality.
 Look out for these symptoms, for there is no more annoying or danger ous disease than Catarrh. There's a continual discharge from the nostrils,

The real story of the worlds series is found in the remarkable fielding of the Boston Crimson whose unpre- cedented record of but one error in six world series contests will stand for long time. Scott. of course starred in this respect, accepting SA chances, many of them difficult without the semblance of pebble and contributing spectacular plays at the most crucial moments of the game.
 His work around short was a decid- ing factor in determining the final re- suit. But he was not alone in the calcium. Whiteman, Hooper, Thomas and Shean came in for a goodly share of the applause after making sensa- tionai stops or wonderful catches and every man on the Boston team was right on the job when the test came
 At the start of the series, we pre- dicted that the Red Sox would win in six games, taking two of three in Chi cago and two of three in Boston. We are frank enough to confess, however. that the absolute lack of hitting has beer somewhat of surprise to us, partially because we figured Mitchell would use Douglas and Hendrix.

Among fhe Bleacherites Fair Hits and Foul Chatter Carnered From the National

Just who will be acclaimed ths greatest here is hard to say. but with. out doubt Flack gets the booby prize for his unfortunate tumble in ths pinch yesterday. Flack is game ball player and fighter but his name will go down in baseball chronicles among the prize boobs of worlds series exhi- bitions
 Taking everything into considera- ton, Tyler pitched the best game of the whole series yesterday, allowing but five hits and no earned runs. Of course Ruth, in the first game let the Cubs down with six hits and no runs, but brilliant fielding saved him sew eral times.
 While nearly all the Red Sox slug gera were handicapped by the left handed hurling of Vaughn and Tyler ! "Wally" Schang found no trouble in connecting with their offerings Schang amassed a total of four hits out of nine times up for an average of .444
 This youngster Pick was recruited from the Coast league by Mitchell sev- eral weeks before the National league closed it's season. He's an awfully fast man and most of his hits are account ed for by his speed in getting down to first base

UNDERSTAND THIS NOW! CATARRH
 CAN BE RELIEVED

buzzing in the ears that grows worse and worse, sometimes leading to deaf ness, scabs in the nostrils, headaches, dripping in the throat, constant hawk ing and splitting, and in certain stages of the disease the odor from the breath is very offensive.
 Catarrh is usually worse in winter because of overloaded rooms and of- fices, and because the low tempera- ture prevents the little relief that healthy sweating will give. The poison vitiated air in stuffy rooms is breathed over and over--in fact, the daily habits of men and women in winter are faithful allies of this dis ease. As the blood circulates through the body it carries Catarrh germs into the stomach, causing chronic dyspepsia; it affects the kidneys and bladder; it weakens the general health and causes loss of appetite. The sufferer feels Respondent and half-sick most of the time, but the greatest danger lies in the fact that if the Catarrh is not checked, the lungs may become involved, termin- ating in consumption, the most in- sidious of all diseases.
 Don't expect to permanently cure Catarrh with sprays, lotions and salves or medicated cigarette smok- ing. They give only temporary re- lief. s. s. s. is the best treatment for Catarrh, because it goes right into the blood and assists it in re- moving the catarrhal poison and at the same time builds up the entire system by it's fine tonic effect. s. s. s. is a purely vegetable remedy and not injurious to the system, like mineral medicines are.

Worlds Series Averages

Below we give the batting averages of the regular players in the worlds series games just completed. Boston, the new worlds champions, won the title by hit ting .lS0, while Chicago, the defeated team, batted just 30 points higher. or
 210 The mighty Babe Ruth got only one bingle in the entire series but thls was a three-bagger that drove in two rurs and cinched the game.
 From the standpoint of batting the most recent baseball classic was the tamest ever staged, but everything con sidered it is safe to say that better base ball was played in this series than any that have been recorded in the annals Of diamond history.

 triumph.
 It was tough for Tyler, a great pitcher, and hard for Flack sterling fielder, to stumble when they did. But 1t was just this difference in steadness be- tween the Red Sox and their opponents at critical periods all through the hectic season which returned the Boston men champions of their league and of tho world.
 McInnes, anxious to keep the ball roll ing, got an infield hit, but Whiteman, in a gallant try for third base, was thrown out. Hollocher to Merkle to Deal.
 In the next inning the Cubs, wounded and sore, went after victory like men, agerie run wild. The first man up was Flack, overflowing with rage at himself for his unfortunate huff, and he vented heavy percentage of his spite on one of the balls that Mays kept curving about his knees. The ball went screaming over second for a clean base hit
 Hollocher did his duty by tapping a slow roller to McInnis for a sacrifice, FlacS having ample time tooreach second. Mays, putting on an extra head of steam, shot in fast. low one on the inside cor ner,e but the ball was too far inside and hit Mann tin the leg with terrific thump. The husky outfielder dropped as if shot and rolled over in agony, but after receiving great deal of rubbing and leg pulling, he gathered himself up and limped down to first base, Flack going to second. Here Boston exhibited some of it's fancy sharpshooting around the bases which has played an important part in the series. Schang, watching Mann take a few halting steps off first, shot the ball down to McInnis and the Cub was put out.
 HOOPER SHINES
 Mays then gave one Of his two passes of the game, Paskert strolling to girst Flack, taking advantage of the diversion, made clean steal of third. Fred Mer- kle then rose to the occasion by smash ing a single to left, on which Flack scored Paskert stopped on second within easy scoring distance, and it looked IS If the game would surely be tied up when Pick sent hard low line drive to short right field It was the same kind of a hit that Flack had fumbled off White- man. Harry Hooper rushed in at top speed, reached out at full length, the ball stuck fast, Chicago's last chance had come and gone.
 In Boston's half of the fourth it seemed as if they intended to make it massacre when they filled the bases, but the Cubs refused to go up in the air and the Red Sox were retired without run. With Scott and Mays on third and first respec- lively, through infield hits and Schang on second, through a pass and the ina bility of Deal to diagnose Mays bunt and only one out, it looked like big bear feast. Merlxle, however, stepped into the breach by sharp handling of Hopper S grounder, forcing Scott at the plate.
 Deal then made hard play off Shean
