MARTIN TO HAVE
A NEW GARAGE

Messrs. Jesse Turner and Bonnie
Lavender are hard at work overhaul
ing the building formerly occupied
by the City Drug Store at Martin
and will put in a large, modern, up
to-date, complete garage, where sick
automobiles of all makes will be
doctored by an expert.
Turner is the hustling, live agent
for the Maxwell car and truck in
this county, while Lavender is one
of the most skilled repairmen in this
section of the state. He was one of
the first boys to take up auto work,
and since that time has had an ex-
tensive and varied experience with
all makes of cars. He is careful,
conscientious and skilled, and will
give his customers the very best of
attention.

YES! LIFT A CORN :,
OFF WITHOUT PAIN!
Cincinnati authority tells how to dry
up corn or caIIus so it lifts
,..-,., off with fingers.

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before, says this
Cincinnati authority, because few
drops of freezone applied directly on a
tender, aching corn or calIus, stops sore
ness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens so it can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft
corn or callus. This should be tried,
as it is inexpensive and is said not to
irritate the surrounding skin.
If your druggist hasn't any freezone
tell him to get a small bottle for you
from his wholesale drug house. 1t is
fine stuff and acts like a charm every
time.

RECORDDIVE MADE
BY MAXWELL TRUCK

AS a rule it would be safe to as
sumo that when a motor truck fall
over bridge forty feet high, int
ten feet of water, that truck would
be out Of commission for some time
says Jesse Turner, local Maxwell
automobile distributor, but that
there may be exceptions to this rule
is proven by the recent performance
of a Maxwell truck owned by E. w
Greer, of Pittsburg, Okla. This
Maxwell, operated on a freight line
between McAlester and .Pittsburg,
took just such high dive with really
remarkable results.
Carrying, as a load, heavy re-
frigerator, the truck reached the
high bridge only to meet touring
car coming in the opposite direc-
ton. The driver of the truck became
confused, turned the truck squarely
around and proceeded to drive off
the bridge. There was some splash
and the truck sank out of sight except
for the tip of the radiator cap which
showed above the surface. There
was no help in sight, the country be-
ing but sparsely settled and full
day elapsed before it was possible to
haul the Maxwell out of the water
and see the extent of the damage.
The hood and the radiator were
battered somewhat by the force of
the fall, but no other part was in
jured in any degree. A few minutes
work and adjustment and the truck
was driven IL miles into McAlester
under its own power. AS the hood
had been wrecked a one-gallon test
tank was used to hold gasoline for
the run into the city.
And the high driving trucks made
the II miles on the one gallon very
easily despite the fact that it mad
lain on the bed of river for full
"a hours.
The Lewis-Briggs Motor Company,
Maxwell distributors for McAlester,
Oklahoma, have had the track on
and state that this latest
proof Of the trucks sturdiness of
construction has resulted in several
sales.

to him to take care of Mrs. Hamlet;
that criminal intimacy developed
therefrom.
While much of the testimony of
Welch was denied by Mrs. Hamlet,
she admitted that her relations with
him were criminal. DR.. Hamlet stat

induced his wife to desert him.
The jury remained out on the case

Mrs. Maude C. Thompson of How

speaker at the Thursday night session

education be sidetracked first. 1t

Chicago. jan 11.-CORN-stormy wealth
er and forecasts of severe cold tended to-
day to harden prices in the corn market,
especially meagerness of receipts indi-
Gated that previour traffic difficulties had
not been overcome. Besides advices in re-
gard to peace failed to confirm bearish
views. Opening quotations which ranged
from &c to Il q nc higher with January
81 27ss and May $1.25A were followed by a
slight further advance in some cases
Later. the market weakened a little ow-
ing to falling off in demand as result Of

ments. The close was unsettled at S1.27K
January and $1:251kM125A May, with the
final range as a whole varying from I'M

OATS-Oats developed decided strength,
chiefly owing to the failure of peace talk
to be confirmed. Furthermore, arrivals
continued to dwinde.
PROVISIONS-Liberal receipts of hogs
eased provisions. Selling, tho, was only
of 4 scattered sort.
Declines lead to somewhat vigorous buy
ing and the market rallied in the last half
