Wonderful Little Corn Waters Re
move Corns Without Pain in
Remarkably Little While

Any man or woman who may be
troubled with corns should by all
means try O-Joy Corn Waters, the
wonderful little corn remedy that re
lieves the pain almost instantly and
removes the corn overnight in most
cases.
/ O-Joy Corn Waters are nothing but
"a round wafer, thin as paper, that
fits right over the sore and aching
corn. No thick, doughnut-shaped
pad to add to the pressure OF the
shoe, or any offensive liquid to dope
the toe, which often gives but tenn
porary relief through deadening the
nerves.
Simply place the little wafer right
on the corn and forget it. 1t sticks
fast, and in day or two the corn
comes right out after soaking the toe
in little warm water. No bother,
no discomfort, no inconvenience.
O-Joy Corn Waters cost but ten
cents for package of six waters: use
them as directed. and if they fail to
do the work your money will be
cheerfully refunded.
Manufactured and distributed by
CLOVER PHARMACAL co,
Woodstock, Va.
On sale at drug stores generally,
or sent direct from the factory.

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING

Several months ago John T. Scopes
was as little known beyond the con-
fines OF Tennessee as the veriest tat
reclamation who ever set box traps
in the Smoky Mountain area. He has
gained fame and. mayhap, some for
tune for violating a law of his state
prohibiting the teaching of evolution
in the public schools.
Scopes lacks that modesty which
would index conscientious conflict
with anti-evoiution laws and he is
posing before nauseated public as a
martyr to his mental conclusions.
Far and wide the youth has travelled
getting the publicity usually accord
ed a missing link or an ossified speci-
men of the paleozoic age.
To his rescue have come scientists
of national repute, and attorneys
whose paid-for services costs thou
sands Of dollars for court appear
ances. have volunteered their serv-
ices to defend the Tennessee teacher
On the other hand, because of the
questions involved, fundamentalists
from Bryan down to the smallest
sanctified Cicero laboring in bucoliG
surroundings have evinced desire
to go after the pedagogue and punish
him to the laws extent.
A religious issue has been created
and the atmosphere is charged and
surcharged with discussions in which
monkeys, men and morals are sc
scrambled that one is reminded Of
the ancient story of Babel.
The point is, however, that the
real question, indeed, the only Ques
ton at issue is, did Scopes violate
the Tennessee law? Certainly the
state had the right to legislate re
lating to studies in the schools sup
ported by the state.
If the legislators did not want evo
luton taught, they had right tt
say so, and place on the statute books
such laws as they choose to enact
prohibitin gsuch teaching.
That is all there is to the furore
fuss and foolishness which is giving
Scopes notoriety and a great aggre
cation of psuedo scientists publicity
for whether Scopes and his coteri,
of defenders do or do not believ,
that our forbears were lot of chat
tering apes is not germane to tn,
contention.
The law says it is a misdemeanol
to teach evolution in Tennessee,
schools. Scopes violated or defet
the law. The punishment is fixet
and settled in the statute. If he il
guilty he is just as guilty as b,
would have been had he violated an!
other law Of his state.
Indeed, there is much ado abou
nothing.

A GOOD PRECEDENT

Sometimes in the maze of statu.
tory regulations of every day life we
run across law which, when In.
voked, has salutary effect. There
Is probably as much harm done BY
moonshining gossip as there is in II.
licit trading In ardent spirits.
Folks usually are unaware of the
existence of this law. and 1t would
be well for them to read 1t carefully
digest its import and be governed
by its provisions.
Section 4536-a of the Code of vir.
ginia, provides
And IL any person shall falsely
utter and speak of and concerning
another person words which from
their usual construction and COM
mon acceptance are construed as in
suits and tend to violence and breach
OF the peace. he shall be guilty OF
q misdemeanor and be fined not less
than IS nor more than 500 or be
confined in jail not exceeding go
days or both"
In Frederick County the other day
an irate citizen actuated by malice,
engaged in a gratuitious defamation
of the character Of public official.
1t was q repeating OF something
which somebody else said which con-
stituted the offense. In this case,
there was no hesitancy on the part
OF the offended Official In bringing to
the bar Of justice the alleged libeller,
and magistrate fined the purveyor
Of the polluted talk fifty dollars.
This is probably the first instance
In nearby courts where the law has
been invoked to stay the spread Of
injurious gossip. and this enforce
ment would certainly seem to be a
precedent worth the following.
Frequently and unfortunately
members Of the Community Tongue
Waggers' Association cannot be

BANKER SAYS BRITISH GOLD
 STANDARD DEPENDS ON U.

LONDON, Mar. 9.-The establish ment and maintenance of the gold standard in this country is largely dependent on the good will of Opin- ion in the United States, said Wal ter Leaf chairman of the Westmins- ter Bank, at the annual meeting of that institution.
 Tt does not follow" he said, that because we have arrived at parity we can at once remove. the embar- go on the export of gold. This is due to expire at the end of 1925, and one may at least confidently hope that it will not be renewed. Indeed, it is not at all improbable that be- fore the end of the year we may see a flow of gold back to Europe, and that the question of export may for the time being be of purely academic interest.
 But it will be necessary to look IOIWdlu duu dSoul ' Oul SSlFCo tHet we have the power to keep the gold when it comes to us. There is nc doubt that we are at present some what. dangerously dependent on the current of opinion in the United States, and it is necessary to be as sured of their good will in maintain ing as we'll as in establishing the gold standard on this side of the At lantic.
 "One begins to wonder whether the time may not have arrived for tha conference of national banks of is sue, for the formulation of a scheme of cooperation in regard to gold re serve, which was called for by the Genoa conference.
