CUSTOMS FIFTY YEARS AGO.

Who among us would say to-day, II
never use Dentifrice; never have to-"
Yet Fifty years ago, odd as it may
seem, not one person in 1000 used
Dsntifrice-or even tooth brush.
So to-day, after more than 80 years Of
persistent publicity of Aliens Foot Ease,
the Antiseptic Powder for the Feet, not
many wel-turned-out people care to con-
fess, "You know never have to use a
Powder for the Feet"
More than One Million five hundred
thousand pounds of Powder for the Feet
were used by our Army and Navy during
the war.
The reason is this Confning the feet
in Leather or Canvas Shoes is bound to
create friction more or less. Aliens Foot
Ease removes the friction from the shoes.
1t is this friction which causes callouses,
corns and bunions. You know what fric-
tion does to your motor-car axle. Why
not remove it from your footwear by
Shaking into your Shoes today. Aliens

ing, Antiseptic powder? Get the habit,

Constantinople, June 2S.--There is
great rejoicing among the Greeks in
Constantinople over the advance of the
Greek army west OF fAla-Shehr, a
walled town in the vilayet of Aidin, the
ancient name of which was Philadel-
phia.
The Greeks report the Turkish
losses in the capture of Ala-Shehr as
5000 men killed, wounded or made
prisoner. All the Greeks of military
age in the city are being recruited to
reinforce the army. The recruits are
marching through the streets shouting
and singing.
Greek OFFICERS here say that the
troops of Kemal Pasha are undisci-
plined and poorly equipped.
COnstantinople is beginning to feel
the effects of the Greek advance.
The Greek steamer Yacinthus has ar
rived here, having on board sixty ma
tiOnalist officers captured June D. and
Greek refugees are arriving from Kilia
and other Bleck sea ports and the in
terror villages of the peninsula be-
tween Ismid and ConstantinOple.
They report that the Turks, incensed
by the Ismid and Smyrna fighting, are
burning Greek villages and shooting
down the Greeks.
According to the refugees this is but
a forerunner of general Moslem at
tack upon the Greeks, which is expect
ed when the news generally is circu-
lated throughout Anatolia of the Greek
advance and the Turkish casualties.
The Greeks have landed forces at
points along the Gulf of Saros and will
soon begin their movement from Occi-
dental into Oriental Thrace.
The Turks are being evacuated from
the shores of the Bosphorus to make
shipping safe from snipers, and 1t is
expected that state of siege will be
declared at ConStantinople, so as to
give the entente closer, control of the
civil population in this city.
Mustapha Kemal Pasha, leader of
the Turkish NatiOnalists, gave his ap-
proval to the reply of Turkey to the
allied peace treaty. The reply absO-
lutely refuses to surrender Smyrna and
Thrace to the Greeks.
