A GENTLE WAY
TO END CORNS
The Modern Method, Scientific.
Eosy, Quick and Sure

The old corn enders were haf,h
crude and uncertain. They csms
into disreputc.
Then a world-fasned iaborstor,
created a new method, and milI;ons
have adopted it.
The new way is Blue -jay-liou;d
or plaster. One applies it By =
touch. The pain stops instantly
and soon the whole corn loosens
and comes out.
To pare corn and keep It non
is folly. Stop it the moment it an.
pears. Remove it in this gentle way,
Watch one corn go whom Blue.
jay is applied. You will let it deal
with all corns after that.
Send to the drug store now.

Caucus of Delegate.

Delegates and alternates to the state
convention from New York County will
meet on Wednesday night at the Hotel
Pennsylvania for the purpose of out
lining program to govern their activ-
tiles at Jamestown.
Because of the large membership
of the Legion in New York State
leaders here believe that any recon
rnendation made by the Jamestown
convention will be given close consid-
eration by the national convention.
Therefore nearly all resolutions
adopted by New York will deal with
vital problems of national interest.

In ENGLAND

The late Queen Victoria did her shop
ping BY summoning the tradesmen to
send samples Of their wares to Windsor
for her inspection and selection, and
the same procedure was followed by
Queen Alexandra. Queen Mary, as
Princess of Wales, however, made her
regular visits to Bond street and other
shopping centers, and has continued the
practice since her succession to the
throne.
Miss Cecilia Forbes Robertson eyi.
IDENTIFY has inherited some of the art
talent of her grandfather, a famous
London art critic in his day, and Of her
uncle, Sir Johnston Forbes Robertson,
who was painter before he took TO the
stage. At the recent distribution of
prizes at the Royal Academy School of
Arts Miss Forbes Robertson captured
no fewer than four trophies for compo-
sition in color and drawings from the
figure in life.
In the last examinations held at the
medical school of University College,
London, five out of the six medals
awarded for proficiency in studies were
won by women.

Keeping Up With the Jacks
By JEAN NEWTON

TO apologize for being better of.
If the little lady who was pprplcxed
about the Jacks would assume the same
attitude. think she would find them
not whit less cordial. In fact, as my
friend said. she and her husband would
probably rise in their estimation Then.
too, the Jacks may have been playing
the same game-you never can tell-of
keeping up with them.
While money is by no means the
mere nothing that some people feel

who woYid be friends. To permit it Ia
do so Is NOT 50 much an overestimation
Of the Importance Of money as it is a

for which il stands.
And any woman with the exercise OF
common sense, dignity and little gra
ciOusness can make herself mistress OF
this situation.

oranges that were too small to ShiT

The sugar situation this year has
caused the orange growers TO put very
early on the market the snail O""uCcs
Shat were formerly kept in the West.
These oranges are small. juicy and de
licious and really make better jelly
and marmalade than the larger fruit.
Now the housewife is able to obtain
10Th sugar and fruit at reasonable
trice. hence she should fiji some glasses
with jelly and jars and bowls with
marmalade.
Then, too, this is splendid time TO

after roaming the juice, through the
quart OF the pith, add nine cups of
water. Place in a saucepan and let

hours. Strain and then add to the
orange juice and measure. Put this

Of the prepared juice. Stir to dissolve

Chop the thin yellow rind which has
been removed from dozen oranges,
used in making the Jelly, and add it to
the pithy white pulp that was left
after draining off the water. Place in
q preserving kettle and add two quarts
Of water. Bring to boil and cook

Now wash and dry eight small sized
oranges and two lemons. Ream OUT the

and then put the skins through the food
chopper. Add the juice to the finely
chopped skins end then place in a pre-
serving kettle and add six pints OF
