feet time and time again. There was
a great contrast between Senator
Robertson's speech and that of Homer
s. Cummings on the opening day.
Cummings couldn't find anything IN
the Republican platform that met his
approval, while Senator Robertson
condemned the Republicans for CON
pletely emitting platform planks on
what he believed to be vital issues.
Robertson spoke about an hour, u
the galleries, which were crowded
earlier, began to empty long before
he had finished.
There was a general feeling that

Monday night and that Cox sentiment
was waning. McAdoo apparently was
gaining strength, due to the persis-
tent. but unconfirmed reports that he
would accept the nomination, how

ballots to nominate.

The second day of the convention
was rather a tame proceeding. The
threatened fireworks over the action
of the credentials comn'f'fee in kick

There was an outburst of opposi-

STOP A MOMENT!
LISTEN TO THIS
Cincinnati man tells how to
lift off any corn without
hurting one bit

You reckless men and woman who
are pestered with corns and who have
at least once q week invited an awful
death from locljaw or blood poison are
now told by a Cincinnati authority to
use drug called freezone, which the
moment a few drops are applied to any
corn, the soreness is relieved and soon
the entire corn, root and all, lifts out
with the fingers.
1t is a sticky substance which dries
the moment it is applied and is said
to simply shrivel the corn without in
flaming or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or skin. 1t is claimed that
a quarter of an ounce of freezone will
cost very little at any of thedrug stores,
but is sufficient to rid ones feet OF
every hard or soft corn or callus.
You are further warned that cutting
at a corn is a suicidal habit.
