WOMEN TORTURED
Suffer Terribly With Corns Bscauss
Of High Heels. but Why
Care Nov.

Women wear high heels which buc-
kie ~ their toes and they suffer ter
ribly from corns. Women then pro-
ceed to trim these pests, seeking re-
iefp but they HARDLY realize the
terrible danger from infection, says
Cincinnati authority.
-Corns can easily be lifted out with
the fingers II you will get from any
drug store q quarter of an ounce of
drug called freezone. This is suffi-
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus on ones feet. You
simply apply a few drops directly
upon the tender, aching corn or cal
lus. The soreness is relieved at once
and soon the entire corn or callus,
root and all, lifts out with out one
particle Of pain.
This freezone 10 Q sticky substance
which dries In . moment. It just
shrivels up the corn without infiam-
ing or even irritating the surrounding
tissue or skin. Tell your wife about

BENEFITS FORGOT

Ire Comptroller of the Currency
recently revoked the authority he
had previously given for the organi.
zetion Of national bank on the
prouid that the applicants for the
charter for bank, although men of
means, had subscribed practically
nothing to the Liberty Loans.
The application for charter was
in proper form, and these applicants
were men of wealth; so far as legal
and material qualifications were con
cerncd the granting of the charter
was justified.
But when it was ascertained that
these wealthy applicants for a char
ter to do banking business under the
protection and cooperation of the
United States Government had out
Of their great wealth purchased only
900 wor'; of Liberty Bonds among
them, Co nptroller Williams promptly
revoked his approval Of the applica-
tion. They Will have no national
bank.
The right and justice of the Camp
troilers action will be heartily in
dorsed by every true American citi-
zen. These men present typical
crse of getting all possible fron the
Government and rendering as little
return as possible.
Yet the individual American citi-
zen, whether native or foreign born,
VINO from the soil of this country or
from the opportunities this country
has offered him has amassed money
and property, and who in this time Of
war and necessity refuses to do his
part in financing his country, is not
one whit better than these applicant )
for a natiOnal-bank charter. He is
acting on the same principle, and ii
he differs from these would-be ma
tional bankers, he differs only in dc =.
gree mot. in kind.

New Iberia. Mar. %, 1918.

New Iberia, Mar. rs, 1918.
We are glad to state the day
has been set to begin the class III
Surgical dressings. Mrs. Dan
Avery the Chapter Instructress
will train this class. Mrs. Avery
requests the ladies who are going
to take up this work to be on
hand on Tuesday, April End at
2 100 p. M. in the Surgical Dress
ing Department third floor Ma
sonic building. All members are
requested to be prompt in at
tendance at the classes as Mrs.
Avery comes in ten miles to teach
us, and we cannot ask, or expect
her to go over the same work
twice in one afternoon. Each
member is expected to bring an
apron, head dress of muslin, or
candle or other light weight, white
material q inches square or one
half Of this material for the head
dress, a pair of scissors, thimble
and the determination to do her
best. Our surgical dressings sent
in. have all received great praise
for the manner in which they have
been made, packed and shipped, so
much of this credit goes to our
instructress. The idea in getting
up this class, is to have a force
of trained workers to take the
room at amy time they may be
called upon. and thus get out
more dressings. which the Red
Cross is calling for in larger num-
bers, We are growing to such an
extent that new people must be-
come interested in the various
lines of work done by us. About
the same people have done the
good work we are given credit

A JUST AND LASTING PEACE.

The essential principles that
must underlie peace, as stated by
President Wilson, should be con-
stantly kept in mind. They show
the greatness and unselfishness
and justice Of Americas war
aims. Briefly they are:
/ ~ The final settlement of this
war must be based upon essential
justice and each particular case
so adjusted as will most likely
bring a permanent peace.
~ Peoples and provinces are
not to be bartered about as if they
were more chattels and pawns in
q game.
(3) Every territorial settle
ment must be made in the interest
of and for the benefit Of the pop
ulations concerned and not BY
way Of compromising claims of
rival States. 49, - Z

THE LIBERTY LOAN.

The Liberty Loan campaign and
the War Savings movement are no
more rivals than the supe:
dreadnaughts and the destroyers
of our navy are rivals.
The Liberty Loan and War
Savings Stamps are two forms of
the same financial operation Of
the United States government.
They were authorized by the same
vote of Congress and are intended
to supplement each other. They
are both of paramount Importance
to the financing of the war. The
Liberty Loan campaign is pri-
marily to obtain the many bill
lions of dollars necessary toward
paying the expenses Of war and
lending to our Allies.
The peculiar significance of the
War Savings movement is to
teach the nation to save and 10
invest it's savings in War Savings
Stamps in order that the govern
ment may not merely get money,
but spend this money for the sup
port of the army.
Successive Liberty Loan Bonds
will be sold in campaigns at in
tervals. The War Savings cam
paign will last throughout the
year-no doubt until the war is
over. 1t aims at developing habits
Of thrift that shall make the sales
of stamps cumulative. And the
person Of limited means who in
vests in few War Savings stamps !
does his share as well as the veal
thies man who buys a quantity |
of Liberty Loan Bonds. Millions
who could not afford to invest in
Liberty Bonds will be able and
glad to help by investing in War
Savings Stamps. The two cam
paigns are, in reality. but one
that Of financing for victory.
