TO A PACIFIST
Rv virg;nia Erozar pou,o

BY Virginia Frazer Boyle.
Let us have peace" ay, peace but
rot until
The beast of greed is parted from
its prey.
Let us have peace," but not till vic
tory's host
Proclaims the dawn of an unfettered
day.
And traitorous be the lips to breathe
it now
Accused be the tongues that idly
speak,
While demons lin the twilight of the
gods,
Rapine and death upon the nations
wreak.
LET us have peace" ah, God. the
mockery creeps
Along the ways of life like petty
thieves,
To snatch the manhood that our
fathers gave
To taunt q freeborn people as ,t
Erieves.
"Let us have peace" stand out there
in the light,
That truth may damn you as you
say your part
Then mouth 1t there, before the
blasting guns
There is no blood to trickle from
your heart.

A few drops applied directly upon
tender, aching corn should relieve
the soreness instantly, and soon the
entire corn, root and all, can be lifted

This new way to rid ones feet of
corns was introduced by a Cincin-

one is sticky, it dries in a moTuent, and
simply shrivels up the corn without
infiaming or even irritating the sur
