Tom has his piece well learned.
He was on the witness stand in hts
own defense and in reply to ques-
tons put by Attorney Nulks, he ex-
planned the teachings and beliefs OF
the Industrial workers of the World.
Tom appeared to have committed TO
memory his answers or the thought
of the answers. on the other hand,
Mr.. Mulks often put the proper
thought in his mind by reading from
a pamphlet about a certain creed or
stating Of his own knowledge some
creed of the order, after which he
would ask Tom If that was not the
belief Of the organization and OF
course the reply was always in the
affirmative.
Tom and his organization appear
to have some amazing theories OF
political economy.
For instance he said that if ten
men produced 100 yards OF silk in Il
certain length Of time by the use Of
a certain amount of energy, and an
other man came along and invented
a process or machine whereby those
same ten men in the same time and
with the same labor could produce

Women wear high heels which

terribly from corns. Women then
proceed to trim these pests, seeking
relief, but they hardly realize the ter
rible danger from infection, says a

Corns can easily be lifted out with

drug store q quarter Of an ounce Of
drug called freezone. This is SUI
ficient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from ones feet. You
simply apply a few drops Of freezone
directly upon the tender, aching corn.
The soreness Is relieved at once and
soon the entire corn, root and all, lifts
out without pain.
This is sticky substance which
dries in moment 1t just shrivels
UP the corn without inflaminH or
even irritating the surrounding tissue
or skin, Gut this out and pin on your

SILLY sPENpTHRlFT
Meredith Breaks Into limslioht and
Newspapers by His Criticism OF
General Public In Its Relation to
Living Costs - Says We Have
Turned Deoalogue Upside Down.

Chicago. Feb. 25.--Greetings to
the whole Boob family--of Chicago,
of Illinois, of the United States. Not
only are you boon. "A nincompoop,
as it were, of purest ray serene
you are a sucker or such pristine
purity as to render the proverbial
hick OF Barnum's day a Solomonic
genius,
With these few we'll chosen words
Edwin T. Meredith, of Iowa, newly
appointed secretary OF agriculture,
begs to make his formal debut.
All SILLY spendthrifts."
Both in interviews and in a speech
delivered before the Chicago Associa-
ton of Commerce he enunciated his
views, which in symposium are:
Hi Cost is a development OF an
abnormal state of mind. Food today
should be as cheap as it was six
years ago, if not cheaper. More food
per capita is being produced here
than ever before. We've become a
nation of silly spendthrifts. and the
result is we are being trimmed riglt
and left by everybody and anybody.
We are the superfools of the world.
The newspapers prepare the
American for his trimming. They
keep ranting about the high cost and
the higher cost of living. The result
is that an American, when asked
some preposterous price for an
article. merely signs resignedly and
pays il with the observation:
We'll, everything's gone up.
What's the use?'
Prices are hundreds per cent high
err in many instances than they
should be. But that isn't my field.
That's up to the department Of jus
tice. There is only one way ont of
the present situation, / suppose, and
that is to educate the individual.
Each person must constitute himself
soldier Of one to combat Hi Cost"
The New "Decalosue."
In adverting to the worship of the
golden calf, America 1t seems. has
revived and revised the commando
ments and is now guided by:
Thou shalt not make unto thee
any wisdom precepts. ff
Thou shalt not stint, but shall beg
and borrow. get into debt, and make
no effort to get out.
Six days shalt thou labor and 10
all thy work. but thou shalt lay
aside nothing for "a rainy day.
! Thou shalt covet thy neighbours
wife's sealskin thy neighbours classy
apartment. his new twin six and his
man servant, and shalt hook thyself
and thy earning capacity to emulate
! him.
Thou shalt not commit economy.
