slant pain in my back and began to
suffer from hemorrhages of the kid

Natural Mortar Beds.

Who invented mortar? Some pre-
historic person, who in all likelihood
hit upon the combination by sheer
luck. The mortar used by the ancient
Greeks and Romans was the same
stuff that we use.

human discoverer by some millions of
years. In Texas and Kansas, extend

The process by which the sedi-

formed is successfully initiated in the

which is spread in a moist condition
and allowed to dry. 1t is better for

Modern high-heeled footwear

soreness and shortly the entire corn,
root and all, lifts right out. 1t is a
sticky substance, which dries the
moment it is applied, and thousands
Of men and women use it because the
corn shrivels up and comes out with
