 It's q revelation to corn sufferers, the wonderful way that "Gets-It banishes corns. Spend two minutes-thats all-to apply q or 8 drops to any corn or callus. The pain will stop instantly.

It is time for all sensible men
to "cut out booze. When poison
is served as whisky-though
whisky has been more or less
poison for years-it is time to
QUIT. For months prices of from
$40 to $27 per quart has been
charged for a poor grade of "red
eve" but when it comes to buy
ing sure-enougb poison, why not
buy arsenic or something else that
is cheap?

We began a new year Thurs
day, 1920. Many Of us made new
resolutions and renewed other
resolutions that we have made
year after year for a good many
years. This goes to show that the
general run of people want to do
the right thing, and know that
they are doing things that they
ought not do; but Old Tempta-
tion comes along and one by one
the resolutions go glimmering.
The thing to do, then, is to re
solve again without waiting for
New Year, and try it over.
