GIRLS! YOUCAN
LIFT THEM OFF
Doesn't hurt a bit to lift
your sore, touchy corns
right Out

A noted Cincinnati authority dis
covered a new ether compound and
called it freezone and quarter
ounce of it now can be had for a
few cents at any drug store.
You simply apply a few drops of
this magic freezone upon a tender
corn or painful callus and instant
ly the soreness disappears, then
shortly you will find the corn or
callus so loose that you can lift it
off with the fingers.
You feel no pain, not a particle of
soreness, either when applying freez-
one or afterwards, and it doesnt
even irritate the skin.
Hard corns, soft corns or corns be-
tween the toes, also toughened cal
luses just shrivel up and lift off so
easy. 1t is wonderful! 1t work:
like a charm. Try it!
Women should keep it on Their
dressers and never let corn ache
twice.-(Advt)

A FTER the cookies were eaten
~ Jacky took up his fiddle and
walked over to the little
shop where 'Mr. Tinker was busily
at work mending old umbrellas
and other things. He looked up
from his work as Jacky entered.
What can 1 do for you, SOM"
asked MIR. Tinker in a squeaky
voice. He was a funny little man,
with a very big head. His hands,
too, were much too large for him.
But that didn't seem to make any
difference as far as his work went,
for there were at lei st a dozen
umbrellas neatly rolled up and
marked with the owners name,
showing that he hand mended them
neatly and quickly.
My fiddle is out of order" said
Jacky. The bridge is broken
Could you make a new bridge for
me-"
Surely" answered Mr.. Tinker.
land If you gave mo time. I could
make a London Bridge" At this
Jacky opened his eyes very wide
indeed.
Gracious me-" he said. Gould
you. really?"
But Mr. Tinker did not reply. He
was already looking over the fid-
die. Then he got out a smooth
piece of thin board and commenced
to shape it carefully with 4 sharp
knife.
When he had shaped it to his lik-
ing. he fitted it under the strings
and then tuned up the fiddle him
self Throwing one leg over the
other he lifted the fiddle up to his
chin and commenced to play. And
the music that came from the little
old fiddle was very beautiful So
beautiful. indeed, that the children
stopped to listen, and Mrs. Tinker
came to the doorway and folded her
hands across her gingham apron
and stood still. The Kettle on the
stove boiled over, but she never
heard it. And "A customer came
through the gate, but Mr.. Tinker
never saw him. And the customer
forgot that nc came after his old
umbrella. and stood still to listen.
Puss Junior had often heard in
his travels people play on the fiddle,
but never had he heard one like
little Mr.. Tinker. The old fiddle
seemed to cry and sob: then to
laugh and sigh, and the little work.
shop might have been an opera
house for all that any one cared.
And by and by Mr.. Tinker laid
aside the bow and took W -.
work again. And the Ca-stomer
came forward and paid for his UNI
brelIa and took il away
Mrs tinker hurried inside and
BSS=1 off the kettle. and Puss
Junior and his comrades said
good-by 10 all the Tinker family.
But when Jacky asked how much
he owed for the new bridge. Mr..
Tinker said he didn't owe anything
You paid me by letting me play"
said MIR. Tinker in a low voice.
