Tells how to loosen tender corn so 1t lifts out without
 pain

You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once week invited an awful death from lockiaw or blood poison are now told by Cincinnati authority to use drug called freezoRe, which the moment a few drops,<are applied to any corn, the sorepess is relieved and soon the entire <e6rn, root and all, lifts out with the<fngers.
 It is stick kysubstance which dries the moment is applied and is said to simply shrivel the corn without inflaming or even irritating the sur rounding tissue or skin. It is claimed that 9 quarter of an ounce will cost very little at any of the drug stores. but is sufficient to rid ones feet of every hard or soft corn or callus.
 You are further warned that cutting at corn is suicidal habit.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, June l2.-Relief from ex- cessive heat turned the corn market down ward today. The bears were also favored by a continuance of lib- eral receipts. On the extreme de- cline, many commission houses swung to the buying side and caused sharp rally but fresh breaks encued. Open ing figures, which varied from 1-Sc to 1 3-8c lower, with July $1.41 to $1 .42 and August $1.42 3-4, were fol lowed by upturn to well above yes terday's finish and then by set backs much lower below the initial range
 Selling was overdone, for when a let up in offerings took place shorts who tried to cover found great diff culty, an da sharp advance resulted. The close was strong, 2 IA to 2 7-2c net higher, with July $1.44 5-S to $1.45 and August $1.46 3-8 to $146 1-2.
 Oats were governed by the action of corn. Trade was light. After op- ening unchanged to 1-2c lower, with July 70 3-8, the market sccred a material advance, which however, was soon lost.
 Business in provisions was almost at standstill. Small gains result ed from absence of selling pressure.
 A falling of packing in the west as compared with a year ago tended later to prevent any important de- clint.
