Like Being Hit
By Rattle Snake
Says that every time you cut
or pick at a corn you
invite lockjaw

You reckless men and women VINO
are pestered with corns and who nave
Mt least once a week invited an awful
death from loclljaw or poison are now
told by a Cincinnati authority to use a
drug called freezone, which the mo-
ment a few drops are applied to any
corn, the soreness is relieved and soon
the entire corn, root and all, lifts right
out with the fingers, without one par
tice of pain.
This freeaone is a sticky substance
which dries the moment it is applied
and just loosens the corn without IN
flaming or even irritating the sur
rounding tissue or skin. He says
quarter of an ounce will cost very
little at any Of the drug stores, but
this is sufficient to rid ones feet or
every hard or soft corn or callus.
You are positively warned that cut
ting or picking at corn is a suicidal
habit

u. S. Holds 5000 Germans Under Guard

+, that an official statement probably VIII
be issued in few days explaining the
status Of each Of the three classes ana
| the reasons for their treatment.
200 Ame 'icans in Germany.
1t is estimated that there are about
| 200 American citizens interned in Ger
many.
The prisoners of war held by the
United States are paid and otherwise
| provided for by the German govern
ment. Their welfare is guarded by the
German government. Their welfare Is
guarded by the Swiss legation in
| Washington, which handles German
diplomatic interests, just as the Span
sh minister 1T Berlin looks after the
interests of American prisoners OF
war in Germany.
A majority of the so-called COM
mercial prisoners composed the crews
of German merchant ships which were
seized by the United States govern
ment after war with Germany was de-
clared. They are provided for Chiefly
by the North German Lloyd and tho
Hamburg American Steamship Com
panes. Money, clothing and other nee
essaries for them are furnished by the
companies, but handled and controlled
by officers of the war department.
These prisoners must make requisition
to the American officers for their
wants.
The enemy aliens ordered interned by
the department of justice are direct
charges on the United States govern
ment All prisoners of war are re-
quired to work Commissioned off,
GERS are expected. Those who labor
are being employed on road work, con-
struction of barracks and in other
ways. The enemy aliens may not be
required to work except with their
own consent. They are not permitted
to work more than eight hours day
except on farm work, where ten hours
is the limit, and they are engaged on
contracts. The money derived from
their services il held for them until
the close of the war

Reichstae Face. War With Gloom.

Paris, June 2s.-Acknowledgem
by Foreign Secretary Won Kuehlmann
that Germany can not be certain of
winning the war by force Of arms
caused an indescribable sensation in
the reichstag, says a Zurich dispatch
to the Petit Journal His prediction
that the war might last thru a fifth
winter was received in silence and
there was much CONSERVATION among
the members of the right. The debate
which followed the foreign secretary's
speech was very stormy, pan-Gerfnan-
list speeches being interrupted by The
left.
A dispatch from Geneva says that
exchange on Berlin and Vienna weak
ened on the receipt Of the secretary's
speech. The mark fell $50 and the
crown 1.O5. Allied exchange continued
firm.

did not understand how food could be

were suffering from a shortage of it.

corded for some months, appears TO

troops have been displaying marked
activity in local actions, which gen
orally have been crowned with success.
In this locality the Germans are now
scarcely represented except on The
army staffs and the task of defending
the front has been left to the Bull
saridns alone. Their army is numerous
and we'll trained but shows no sign for
the present of taking the offensive.
Most of the Turkish troops are en-
gagged or the Persian and Palestine

reverses at the hands of the British.
a very small force of German troops is
dispersed among their divisions, where
they act as specialists such as machine
gunners and grenadiers.

Divergent Opinions Regarding Attitude

in two public speeches on the question
"w!l! women return to their homes from

USE STANDARDIZED BED.
One Style Only In Use Behind Allied
Lines in France

Paris. May 29.-Go where you may
behind the allied lines in France one
style of bed predominates. 1T is crude
but comfortable and very popular
among the troops.
2 The bed measures about six feet
long by two and one-half feet wide.
The frame work is made Of any ma
terial that happens to be available and
the support is wire netting Of sand
bags securely nailed. The legs stand
about eighteen inches from the floor.
Where the men obtain the material
for their beds is a mystery. ~
In the trenches, of course, no beds
are to be had. A waterproof sheet and
a single blanket usually suffice. In the
trench dug -outs officers have straw to
sleep on, the utmost comfort they can
expect.
Men on leave from the trenches say
that for the first few nights they are
unable to sleep between sheets on a
soft spring bed.

divisions in the field from the Baltic
to the Black Sea makes a very power
full army, which is under the command
Of Prince Leopold of Bavaria. There
seems to be great uneasiness in Ger
many at the course events are taking
both in Russia and Rumania. This is
caused by the anti-German attitude of
many Of the bolsheviki, the incipient
monarchist movements and anarchist
instructions, in which many former
Russian officers are participating, and
the unexpected resistance encountered
in southern Russia, while in Rumania
complications have arisen owing to
the expressed desire of Bessaraba to
join Rumania and the evaporation
caused by the cession of the Dobrudja.

 When we have reproached ourselves have been reproached, have pointed to what have &C., complished-on paper, to ambitious programs, and to our half or less than half finished achieve ments, percentages of achievement and replied we have done much than Great Britain in the first year of the war. As matter of fact have done nothing of the sort for in the first year of the war Great Britain alone prevented the Germans from winning.

Phrases

It is matter of regret thinks Chairman Hurley of the shipping board that the phrase do your bit was coined. The phrase originated in England whence it was adopted by and in the transerence acquired different meaning For notwithstanding English is the language of both nations many ex- pressions mean thing in England and another thing in America.
 From such contemporary and coptextuaI ltera- ture have been able to find on the subject do your bit' in England means do your best" "do all you can" In America the accepted meaning is do your share and in happy lucky way each in- dividual has determined his share. As to the rest, the national sentiment appears to have been Let George do t' We have assumed that George would do it." We have assumed that George would do it. somehow in his own way we have done our bit in

Our New Naval Base

The establishment by the United States of a naval base in the Azores probably has for it's immediate purpose tho guarding of the transports now onroute to Europe and which from this time on will so for ward in increasing numbers It is beyond the Azores that the greatest danger from submarines will be expected so that that naval base will be made rem dszvous for American and British destroyers which will serve as escorts for transports and merchant vessels.
 The range of the submarines would allow them to operate this side of the Azores but until it been developed that tho U-boats have made this part of the ocean hunting ground vessels Will probably be less carefully guarded than on the sea beyond the new naval base.
 The fertilization Of the base, according to the dispatches. indicates another and future use of it. Al present Qualifications are not needed The only enemy have is powerless on the sea. But time may come when it will become necessary to guard all approaches to shores and to the Panama canal With the naval base at St. Thomas and the new one at Funchal we would be pretty well protected.
 That have acquired the base in the Azores Is an indication that have been pretty thoroughly awakened from the dream of perpetual peace after the present war, and that, however it may end we are not sure that the bloody storm is "clearing-up shower"
