Sure! High Heels
Cause CornS But
Who Cares Now

Because style DEGREES that women
crowd and buckle up their tender toes
in high heel footwear thcy suffer from
corns, then they cut and trim at these
painful pests which merely makes the
corn grow hard. This suicidal habit
may cause loclsjaw and women are
warned to stop It.
A few drops of a drug called freez-
one applied directly upon sore corn
gives quick relief and soon the entire
corn, root and all, lifts out without
pass Asz the drug store man for a
quarter Of an ounce OF freezone, which
costs very little but Is sufficient to re-
move every hard or soft corn or callua
from ones feet. Il
This drug Is an ether compound and
dries in a moment and simply shrivels
up the corn without inhaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue or
skim Clip this out and pin on your
wife'a dresser.

Paris, October 24-The French state- ment tonight says:
 ''On the Disc our forces after crossing the canal opposite Longehamps have made progress on the east bank, taking about 30 prisoners
 Between the Ose and the Serre we delivered an attack in the afternoon and despite the resistance of the Germans our troops made an important advance south of Origny- -Sainte Benoite and north ot Villers-Le Sec.
 "On our right we have reached the road between &Ea Ferte- Chevresis ana Ferrieres farm Several hundred prison CTS sare reported.
 There was considerable artillery activ- ity on the plateau east of Vouziers.
 Aviation: On October 23 observation planes in the course of numerous recon- naisances proceeded more than 70 kilo- meters (about 4S 1-2 miles) inside the enemy lines. They brought back sew eral hundred photographs. Two captive balloons were burned and F enemy ma chimes were brought oown or put out of action. The greater part of these sue cesses were obtained in the region of the Aisne. where the vigilance of our pursuit machines was particularly exer- ciAed
 -.During the night our bombing ma chimes dropped 14.500 kilos of projectiles on the railway stations at Montcornet, Marie, vervins and Wassigny, with par ticular attention to Provisy, on which more than seven tons of explosives were dropped, causing several fires"

BLEED HIMSELF TO DEATH

Grief caused by the death of his son and associate in business is believed to have led E. R. Won Seutter, aged 5S, to take his own life few nights since. Five nights after the death of his son, Mir Seutter slashed the big veins in each wrist, and quietly awaited the end. Holding both arms over the side of the bed on which his wife also slept he bled to death. Just before the end came he groaned time or two, causing members of the family who sat in the next room, with the door open, to rush to his bedside. Phy- sicians were hastily summoned, but it was too late, and in less than one week, father and son were laid to ever- lasting rest, leaving heart-broken wife and one remaining son with the United States army in France. Mir. Seutter was born in this country and raised in Jackson, though his father was from the German province of Ba- varia, while his mother came from Bo- hemia. He was for Germany as against England and France, but when the United States entered the war, he fol- lowed the Stars and Stripes

There were 102 new cases of influenza reported to the health department yes terday, and 15 burial permits were is- sued for persons who died either of influenza or pneumonia. This is the smallest number of deaths and new cases that have been reported in day in more than two weeks, despite the recent bad weather. Dr. Bowling states that the situation is rapidly improving but the ban on public assembling places will not be lifted before November 4, and will not be removed unless the present improvement continues. He thinks that an opening before that time would be dangerous; it might be the undoing of all the good results ac- complished In the fight against the epi- demic. Furthermore, conditions through out the county, especially close around Birmingham, are not as satisfactory as in the city.
 The largest crowds were seen upon the streets yesterday that have been noted within the past two weeks, and several of the merchants report that their sales were greater than on any day within that time. This is additional evidence of the rapid abating of the epidemic. There were fewer corpses in the niorgues of a majority of the undertaking establishments last night than have been since the epidemic reached it's highest stage little more than a fortnight ago.
 All of these encouraging facts do not however, justify slackening in the observance of any of the important pre- cautions which have hitherto been in effect" said Dr. Bowling last night Because the battle seemingly is al most won is no reason why we should quit fighting"

Acid-StOlnach M akeS Millions Weak and
 Miserable

For years dentists have been tell ing us that it's acid mouth that ruins the teeth, yet this acid that is powerful enough to eat through the harder than bone enamel of the teeth and decay them, is tasteless. Its presence can be detected only by chemical tests,
 No chemical test is needed to tell you that you have acid stomach.
 Indigestion, belching, heartburn, sour stomach, food-repeating, that miserable puffed up feeling after eating, intestinal pains. headaches, etc. These are all Natures warm ing to you. They are sure signs of superacidity.
 Acid stomach prevents proper di- gestion and assimilation, thus cauS- ing the blood to become thin and impoverished as result of which people become sallow skinned. emanciated sick and bad looking.
 Acid-stomach causes stomach and intestinal fermentation. producing poisons and toxins which, absorbed into the blood and carried through out the system, cause auto-intoxi- cation, insomnia. nervousness, ir- ritability, mental depression. mel ancholia, dizziness, vertigo and oftentimes. valvular heart trouble and heart failure.

HARD ON THE ORpHANAGE

The railroads have advised the super intendent of the Methodist orphanage here that they cannot haul free cars this fall to transport donations of food ana clothing to the institution as they have always done heretofore. nor can they give them 50 per cent rebate on freight rates. This means loss of several thou- sand dollars to the 300 poor boys and girls that are here cared for. The or phanage has suffered another blow, as because of the epidemic of influenza over the state, vWork day. was not observed as usual. That meant that every good Methodist in the state donated the equiv- alent of one days work to the institu- ton. Last year Work day. netted the orphanage more than $60e0.

PINE LANDS FOR SOLDIERS

A great movement has been started in this state for the settlement of thousands of acres of cut-over pine lands for soldiers returning from the war who may want to engage in farm ing under the scheme suggested by Secretary Lane of the department of the interior. Mississippi has millions of acres of lands suitable for such entry, and would only be too glad 10 make room for all the soldiers who de- sire them. A committee that is head ed by H. F. Blakeslee of Gulfport, former states commissioner of agricul- ture, and now candidate for gov ernor is calling on the owners of large tracts of lands to list them for sale. and it is understood they have met with ready and prompt response. In the event Mir. Lanes plan is carried out, many thousands of acres of idle lands in the south will be put to work. It is claimed here that Mississippi
 lands are now the cheapest to be had in the United States--and at the same

FALSE IMPRESSION

Dr. J. ID. Bowling, city and county health officer, wishes to correct the false impression that influenza vac cine is being used by the health au- thorities of Birmingham and Jeffer- son county. He says that all influ- enza vaccines are yet in the experi- mental stage and none of them will be used by the health department until their efficacy has been thor oughiy demonstrated by competent authorities. Two distinct commis- sions, working independently, have recently made experiments with vaccine which they agree has no value as n preventive, but when used as a treatment for infiuenxa has been known to do good, but the result of their use is always un- certain.

BRITISH

London, october 24-The text of the British official statement reads "This morning our battle front was extended northward as far as the Scheldt at Thiant. On the whole battle front be- tween the Sambre canal and the Scheldt the enemy resistance was overcome and our advance continued. There was hard fighting at number of points.
 '.On the right the Sixth division fought it's way to the edge of the Bois L'Eveque and captured Ors North of this point we are approaching the west ern outskirts of the Normal forest and have captured Robersart.
 "on the right center of our attack we have continued our advance to the of Lequesnoy."
 '1n the latter village the enemy Is maintaining obstinate resistance.
 .On the left of our attack Anglo Scot tish troops forced crossings of the Ecail- lon. between Verchain and Thiant, and gained the high ground to the east.

They adopted the card system of keeping tab on the laboring men and women Of the city and a committee of 100 men bars of the Board of Trade was named to assist the po- lice in making n,en and women show their cards, which are raauireI to be punched by employers showing that the bearer of the card has worked at least six days In the week.

Mosquito Nets for Soldiers

From the Italian Bureau of Public In

 The care of governments and the help of the public are continually trying to fight the many discomforts suffered by the soldier in the fighting line An other example of this desire to help has been a widespread movement in Italy to furnish a mosquito net to every Italian soldier on the Piave line, where the marshy ground is peculiarly favora ble to the breeding of mosquitoes. The public has been informed by a special commit tee of the Red Cross of the dimensions and qualities of the nets and all over Italy individuals and groups of men and women are sending them to the soldiers at the front,

China Lines Up With Democracy

From World outlook.
 There are 100000 Chinese coolies in France, making roads, digging trenches. grooming tanks, and even making ammunition.
 The question that this army of Chl- nese presents to the western world is this: Are these 100000 to go back from a Christian country. still pagans. still preferring the customs of old China, or are they to return an army of Christians, alert and understanding in the ways of the rest Of the world?
 The ' NJ, c. A. decided not to miss an opportunity for missionary work on such large scale. They are sending over 90 American and 32 Chinese "Y" secretaries to hold educational and
