LIKE AN ELECTRIC
Tells Why q Corn Is So Painful ani
Says Cutting Makes
Grow.

Press an electric button and you
form a contact with a live wire
which rings the bell. When your
shoes press against your corn it
pushes its sharp roots down upon a
sensitive nerve and you get a shock
Of pain.
Instead of trimming your corns,
which merely makes them grow, just
step into any drug store and ask for
quarter of an ounce of freezone.
This will cost very little but is SUI
acient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. A
few drops applied directly upon a
lender, aching corn stops the sore
ness instantly, and soon the corn
shrivels up so 1t lifts right out, root
and all, without pain. This drug
free7one is harmless and never in
lanes or even irritates the surround
ing skin.-Adv.

The Germans have found new
method for making propaganda for
themselves in neutral and even in AL
lied countries. This new propaganda
has assumed the form Of music text
books, which the Central Powers in
tend to spread in foreign countries.
Recently the Germans published
especially for school use the text of
Becthoven's &C Minor Sonata" The
text is accompanied by copious notes
and introductions, the aim of which is
to extol German Kultur and revilc the
enemies of Germany. According to the
editors, only Germans are able to COM
pose sonatas; none of Gcrmany's
enemies can be compared to the Ger
mans.
In the preface, the editor, Profess
sor Heinrich Schenker, who is regarded
as great personality by the Germans,
says:
"Lct the German nation, which is the
most capable in the universe. and
which is more richly endowed with
talents and abilities than even the
Greeks and Romans, ascend the steps
Of the throne; and let the German ma
tion persist until the inferior nations
understand its greatness and learn to
appreciate it with gratitude!"
Only the Germans are great and
possess no faults. The French, the

English, Italians, Russians and Amcri-

Ut the French he says that "they are
deprived of all sincerity, of intclli-
gence, of culture, fond to exagceration
OF vague and meaningless phrases, who
indulge in degenerate practices. and
are me- narrow minded"
AS to the English, he says that their
love for sports has deprived them com
pletely of the religious sense. man
ncrs, artistic tastes and scientific
spirit: "ln spite of Shakespeare, Car
lyle, Byron and some others, the Eng
llsh people are contemplate"
-. The Italian, in the Germans opinion,
is bandit, boastcr, faithcss, who
mas taken the motto of sacred egotism
from the brigands. without inheriting
thelr chivalrous character"
Of all, however. he finds for the
Americans the most insulting names:
crowd OF storekeepcrs without
NuItur, whose mind cannot be excited
except by the coarsest buffooncry. The
country often boastcd of unlimited
possibilities, but in reality it is the
country of most restricted possibili-
