In a. conyersa- tion with Governor Baldwin, the latter told the speaker that the people. of this state seemed to believe the Con- stitution was a pretty good Constitu- tion as it was. Mir. Lincoln said in New Haven less than 5000 votes con troiled the public interests of the en-

 the votes of its five congressman and
 also by the daily press. A
 He said this amendment would be
 the great issue this fall in. electipg the general assembly. He spoke Sf

 ROLLING OFF LOG Sore, touchy, corns stop hurt ing, then lift right out
 with fingers

You corn-pestered men and women need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before. says this Cincinnati authority. because a few drops of freezone applied directly on a tender. aching corn stops soreness at once and soon the corn loosens so it can be lifted out, root and all, without pain.
 A quarter ounce of freezone costs very little at any drug store. but is sufficient to take off every hard or soft corn or callus. This should be tried
 as 1t is inexpensive and is said not to inflan1e or even irritate the surround ing tissue or skin. After you lift away the troublesome corn or callus the skin underneath is as pink, firm and healthy as the palm of your hand

 Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suffer from constipation The .condi- ten is. perfectly natural It is just as natural as 1t is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
