Women Tortured
Suffer Terribly With Corns Because
of High Heels, But Why
Care Now.

Women wear high heels which
buckle up their toes and they suffer
terribly from corns. Women ther
proceed to trim these pests, seeking
relief, but they hardly realize the
terrible danger from infection, says a
Cincinnati authority.
Cons can easily be lifted out with
the fingers if you will get from any
drug store a quarter of an ounce of a
drug called freezone. This is suffl-
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. You
simply apply few drops directly up
on the tender, aching corn or callus
TIE soreness is relieved at once and
soon the entire corn or callus, root
and all, lifts out without one particle
of pain.
This freezone is a sticky subs ance
which dries in moment. 1t just
shrivels up the corn without inflam-
ing or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or skin. Tell your wife
about this.

name as their candidate for assessor,

as Quitting in when we say that it
is not often men of the ability of
John Dodson offer for the position
of assessor. Without disparagement
to the other gentlemen who are offer

The total cost of government for
this period is therefore 86.5 cents for
each $100 Of assessed valuation, and
1922 per capita, being somewhat
higher than the average because it
was legislative year.
The income for the biennial period
shows a total of $5,049, 032.60, deriv-
ed from the following sources: Com
missions and fees $50, 1874, Com
missioners fees, land sales and re-
demptions $38,55299, interest $751;
855.37, licenses $31 ,248.25, miscellan-
eous $1,106, s3997, taxes $3,708, 738.-
68.
The largest amount, or 1874 per cent
of the whole, comes from taxes, which
are subdivided as follows: Property
taxes 81 per cent of total taxes and
66.S per cent of fetal income; fran
chise taxes rs per cent Of total taxes
and SIS per cent of total income; in
heritance taxes, ! a per cent of total
taxes, and II per cent of total in
come: insurance taxes 4 per cent of
total taxes.
The total property taxes paid by the
people of the state amount to only
82.4 cents per 500 valuation, or $212
per capita This, of course, does not
inelpdc county and municipal taxes.
When thus reduced to terms per
capita, it appears that the cost of
maintaining the state government
does not fall heavily upon anyone.
This analysis of state revenue and
expense, upon which Mr.. Reynolds has
been employed for the last two
months. will be of invaluable assist
ance to the Legislature in making its
budget, and in determining just where
economics may best be practiced.
An intensive book-campaign is be-
ing conducted this week throughout
the state, in fact, all over the country,
for the benefit of the libraries for the
soldiers in camp and trench.
The campaign opened March 1S,
and will conclude next Monday.
AS a result of the first campaign,
several hundred thousand books were
supplied, but those in charge OF the
work say that there should be two
million more.
The campaign is carried on by the
Library War Service Of the American
Library Association, and the Public
librarian in Little Rock is the state
agent for Arkansas.
Collections of books suitable for
soldiers reading may be made any
where, and when boxed and addressed
to the commanding general of the
camp to which they are sent, they will
be carried by the railroads free OF
charge.
Generous owners of private collec-
tions of books are asked to take such
of their volumes as they would like to
give for the use of the soldiers and
sailors to the Public Library, marked
Mibrary War Service" They will be
taken care of by trained workers, and
placed where they will do the most
effective good.
