follow the simple advice of this Cin-
cinnati authority, who claims that a
few drops of a drug called freezone
when applied to a tender, aching corn
stops soreness at once, and soon the
corn dries up and lifts right out with-
out pain,
He says freezone is an ether com-
pound which dries immediately and
never Inflames or even irritates the
surrounding tissue or skin, A quarter
of an ounce of freezone will cost very
little at any drug store, but is suffi-
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from one's feet. Mil-

WASHINGTON, April S
from Noyoii, where, as demean was
so fond of taunting Briand, the Ger-
mans lay so long. escoticed, the Teu-
| ton invader and his pursuers swept by
I the ruins of the town and fortress of
| Ham when they had encompassed |
about two-thirds of the distance of the
so-called Von Hindenberg line, which'
runs from St, Quetitin on the south to
Cambrai on the north.
"Here, in the department of the ]
Somme and 011 the river of that name,
stood Ihe town, dating from the earli-
est period of Krenr h history and count-
ing no less than half a dozen succes-
sive ecclesiastic and feudal lordships
until it finally was united with the
French crown in the reign of Henry
IV," says a war geography bulletin
just prepared and issued by the Na-
tional Geographic society which goes
on to tell something of the history of
this famous old center. "Great names
appear in the list of Ham's chii ftains
Knghien, Rohan, Vendoms and Na-
varre—and greater names mill are
found in the roster of state prisoners
who have found incarceration in its
mighty fortress.
"This structure dated from -the
eighth century, and in form it was a
huge square, lanked by our round
towers united by three ramparts. It
had but one entrance, on the side next
the town, to which access was had by
a drawbridge spanning a dry moat.
On two sides the waters of the St.
Quentln canal bathed the walls of the
ancient citadel.
"Its dungeon was built by Louis of
Luxembourg, whose house at one
time held the fief of Ham. He at the
time—under the reign of Louis XI —
. .was constable of St. Pol; and the
I greater of the two towers which de-
fended the curtains of the fortless
was known as the Constable's Tower, j wf|fir,
It was a hundred feet high, its walls
having a thickness of thirty-six feet;
and three hexagonal chambers filled
its interior.
"The basis of the entire works is
the old structure, founded before the
tenth century, and enlarged and
strengthened in the centuries since,
notably in the fifteenth, when the
great constable provided the outworks 1 between tin
but also Immeasurably strengthened | pie, and
the main walls so effectively
Violtet-le-Due is said to have
in the shad-
causing these tars no
powerful enough
Comte de Peyronnet, has gone on rec-
ord ill a complaint, which was pub-
lished in the newspapers of the time,
against the conditions which he found
there. "The prison of Ham Is very
badly situated,' he wrote, 'and, more-
over, unhealthy. It is enveloped in
fogs half the day. The promenade
covers a space of about 150 feet at
the end of a rampart where not more
than two persons can walk abreast,'
"These prisoners were released in
1836 by the terms of the amnesty then
proclaimed; and four years later Ham
opened its doors to the most adven-
turous of all its captives, Louis Na-
poleon.

quested Consultations With Them
and Are Now Being VMtcd.
J. S. Richardson, assistant county
demonstration agent, took up the
work of the home garden week in
Temple yesterday and will devote all
of his time this week to it in ac-
cordance to agreement made with the
Chamber of Commerce last week,
I). T. Killough, superintendent of the
experiment station, will also Rive a
portion of his time to the garden
campaign In this city this week, and
both he and Mr. Richardson will be
engaged in the work here today.
Mr, Richardson met with Supt. W.
W. Clement of the city schools, and
W. B. Newby, principal of Reagan
school, yesterday morning and receiv-
ed from them names of families
which have made requests for con-
sultation and advice with reference to
their gardens. He received a list of
fifty-six names from Reagon and six-
ty-two from the high school.
Mr. Richardson visited eight of
those who had made a request for
his services yesterday afternoon. At
five places out of the eight he found
good gardens growing, but at each
place there wa? additional ground
that could be utilized and the people
wanted advice about planting crops
that would be most valuable and most
sure to mature successfully if planted
now. i
Mr. Richardson states that he will
be in the city at 7:30 this morning
to begin his work for the day, and
he hopes to get to several of the.
homes before the boys and girls leave
for school and to be able to consult
with them, as well as the older peo-
ple, about the gardens. He and Mr.
Killough will divide up their lists to-
day and each visit as many of the
homes where their services have been
requested as possible. They hope that
the people will have studied their gar-
den possibilities and be ready to ask
definitely for any information that
ihey may desire, so that a great deal
of good may be accomplished with-
out prolonging the visit longer than
nccessary
"This imitator of his great uncle,
having failed in his Boulogne fili-
bustering expedition of August, ISiO,
was temporarily held at Ham for a
few days following his capture and
until he could be taken to Paris for
his trial before the chambers of peers.
After his condemnation to perpetual
imprisonment, lie was returned to
Ham in October of that year; and
there he remained until May, lslii,
when he effected his escape. From
Ham, Louis Napoleon made his way
to Belgium and thence to lOngland.
From London I10 was recalled to I'aris,
at the overthrow of the Bourbons, to
become a member of the new cham-
ber of deputies; am' within less than
three years from the day .of his escape
he had made himself, prince-presi-
dent of the republic of France and
in little more than five years had en-
compassed the coup-d'etat which gave
him the imperial crown.
"In his contest for the French
presidency Louis Napoleon was op-
| posed b.v General Cavaignac, who fig-
i tired next in tile list of plebiscite but
at a long interval. The vanquished
'Cavaignae never relinquished his hos-
! tility to his successful rival, however,
j and at the time of the coup-d'etat. he

j sition by Ueiieral l.ainoiviere, who

And the blend can't be copied.
Words can only tell you these things—it lakes the cigarette
