PAIN? NOT A BIT !
LIFT YOUR CORNS
OR CALLUSES OFF
No humbug! Appfy few drops
then just lift them away
with fingers.
This new drug is an ether compound
discovered by a Cincinnati chemist. II
is called freezone, and can
now be obtained in tihy
bottles as here shown at
very little cost from any
drug store. Just ask for
freezone. Apply a drop or
two directly upon a tender
corn or callus and instant-
ly the soreness disappears.
Shortly you will find the
corn or callus so loose that
you can lift it off, root
and all, with the fingers.
Not a twinge of pain,
soreness or irritation; not
even the slightest smart-
ing, either when applying
freezone or afterwards.
This drug doesn’t eat up
the corn or callus, but
shrivels them so they loos-
en and come right out. It
is no humbug! It works
like a charm. For a few
cents you can get rid of ev-
ery hard corn, soft corn or
<3flrn between the toes, as well as pain-
ful calluses on bottom of your feet. It
never disappoints and never burns,
bites or inflames. If your druggist
hasn’t any freezone yet, tell him to
get a little bpttle for you from his
wholesale house.—adv.
There is more than a gallon of trou-
ble in some pint bottles.

Not Enough to Hurt Him.
“Did he learn any Latin in college?”
“Not enough to interfere with his
slang.”—Life.
Dr. B. F. Jackson, Celebrated Physician,
handed down to posterity his famous
prescription for female troubles. Now
sold under the name of “Femenina.”
Price 50c and $1.00.—Adv.
A vivid imagination is often even
more dangerous than a little learn-
ing.
Getting Old Too Fast?
Late in life the body shows signs of
wear and often the kidneys weaken
first. The back is lame, bent and achy,
and the kidney action distressing. This
makes people feel older than they are.
Don’t wait for dropsy, gravel, harden-
ing of the arteries or Bright’s disease.
Use a mild kidney stimulant. Try
Doan’s Kidney Pills. Thousands of el-
derly folks recommend them.

A Texas Case
Mrs. J. M. Bailey, Mo
B. Third St., Quanah,
Texas, says: “The se-
cretions from my kid-
neys were scanty and
didn’t pass often
enough. This weak-
ness annoyed me
greatly. After I had
been suffering for
some time, I heard
Doan’s Kidney Pills
recommended highly
and began using them.
The first box helped
me and I continued
their use until I was
rid of the complaint.”

AIR OF THE ORIENT
Chinese Influence More Pro-
nounced in Summer Frocks.
Tendency of Past Year Has Grown
Stronger This Season—Idea
Prevalent Even in the
Sweaters.
Many months ago—in fact, with the
showing of extreme models in the
spring of 1916—a decidedly oriental
note was heralded, and a great many
garments that borrowed either line or
coloring from the far East were shown.
In the year that has passed this ten-
dency has grown stronger, and espe-
cially the Chinese influences recog-
nized. The summer crop of tub frocks
shows many tailored dresses and sport
suits with coats or blouses suggest-
CHECKS ARE REALLY PLAIDS
Fashion This Year Has Decreed That
to Be Smart They Must Not Be
Less Than Two Inches Square.
We have progressed very much in
our definition of the word “check-
ered” since last year, says a fashion
authority. Then a check was under-
stood ordinarily to mean a combina-
tion of white and black, or of colors,
of small dimensions, so that at a short
distance a monotone effect was
given.
Now, however, fashion has decreed
that to be absolutely smart the checks
of the fabrics of the present season
must not be less than two inches
square. This means that what we
term checks are really plaids, ex-
cepting that fewer colors enter into
the design. /
Fortunately, most of these enor-
mous checks are taken for sports
skirts, and the latter are plaited
from waist to ankle and the aera of
black and white blocks is happily
broken. Along with the popular black
and white there are such combinations
as gold and purple, red and gray,
green and tun and yellow and blue.
They are to be worn with the lin-
gerie shirtwaist, usually topped by a
sweater whose color matches the most
vivid or striking one introduced in
the skirt design.
NEW EFFECTS IN POCKETS
Chinese Note Even in Sweaters.
Ing the mandarin jacket, and negligee
garments have not escaped the same
influence. In fact, Chinese mandarin
coats and accompanying Chinese trou-
sers have been found extremely desir-
able and becoming for boudoir wear.
The sweater shown in the sketch is
of fine white wool jersey cloth, cut a
la mandarin coat, and embroidered in
Chinese blue soutache braid. The gar-
ment is quite straight, as will not-
ed, held in at the waist with a loose-
ly caught sash and equipped with gen-
erous pockets. It is also shown in
the shops in Chinese blue, embroidered
in white or in colors. It might really
be made at home, as it is a seamed
affair, fashioned of wool jersey fabric,
not a conventional knitted sweater.
If home-made, great care must be
taken to apply the braid neatly and
firmly, as poor workmanship appears
at its very worst on the jersey weave
fabrics.
In purchasing a sweater this season
it is well to bear in mind that the slip-
over-the-head models are the very lat-
est, and they are practical as well. A
sweater that does not have to be but-
toned and unbuttoned certainly keeps
its shape better than one that does.

TOUCHWOOD IS USED ON HATS
French Responsible for Adoption of
This Unusual Material—Real and
Imitation Coral in Demand.
In this country we have known what
touchwood is. Small ornaments of it
have been bought by women and given
as gifts or curried in purses for luck.
But it was left to France to introduce
it as a trimming for hats. The French
women have been wearing ornaments
made of this wood, many bits of it
being mingled with precious stoues ar-
ranged in rings and bracelets. It was
a bit of superstition that came into
use at the beginning of the war and
it I’apidly grew into a universal French
fashion.
New hats are trfmmed with touch-
wood ornaments as crown bands and
for piping on brims.
Coral, real ami imitation, will be
used in the new spring millinery. Italy
is supplying a large demand for it.
Coral figures are placed against the
straw and satin hats, embroidery is
done in coral beads, and one new
spring hat has large blue woolen roses,
with the hearts made of coral beads.
Pockets have been playing an all-
important part in the vagaries of fash-
ion. Many new styles have been wov-
en around them. Pockets have been
seen in every shape and form. Those
shown in the photo are the very latest
turn. They are gathered up in a tunic
effect on the sides and extend pretty
near half-way around the frock. They
are wide, but not deep, unusual for
pockets. The collar, cuffs and edge
of the skirt are paneled in a bright-
striped border. The frock is made of
rose-colored Yosan silk.
Pockets.
Two-in-one pockets are a »tyle fea-
ture of interest. These are two pock-
ets in one panel, the patch pocket be-
fog slit at the bottom to hold small
coins for change. 1
A Knitted Sports Costume.
Among the costumes lately arrived
from Paris is a knitted sports costume
consisting of a narrow skirt and sweat-
er blouse, the model made of whit6
yarn showing a border effect of large
red roses placed at intervals around
lower part of skirt. The mannequin
wore with this costume a knitted tain
to match. Another idea was a knitted
yarn blouse wArn with a skirt of
“Kasha” and still another unique sports
suit was developed of white Kasha
showing narrow skirt slit up to
the knees; a band of woolen em-
broidery in a Paisley pattern defined
the slit on either side. The jacket was
adorned with embroidery to corre-
spond.
Paris Is for Green.
Green figures largely in the Paris
color card, but mostly In the bright
and light shades and the soft, cool,
medium tones. Clever sports coats,
sports costumes, afternoon and eve-
ning frocks, sweaters and separate
skirts are shown in greens, and some
of the prettiest linen and cotton mod-
els are built up in green and white,
while In millinery and the little tilings
of dress there is plenty of green.

The Right Medicine in Many Cases
Does Better than the Surgeon’s
Knife. Tribute to Lydia E. Pink-
. ham’s Vegetable Compound.
Doctor Said Operation or Death—But Medicine Cured.
Des Moines, Iowa.—“My husband says I would
have been in my grave today had it not been for
Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I suf-
fered from a serious female trouble and the doctors
said I could not live one year without an operation.
My husband objected to the operation and had me
try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I
soon commenced to get better and am now well
and able to do my own housework. I can recom-
mend Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound to
any woman as a wonderful health restorer.”—Mrs.
Blanche Jefferson,703 Lyon St., Des Moines,Iowa.
Another Operation Avoided.
Richmond, Ind.—“For two years I was so sick and weak from
female troubles that when going up stairs I had to go very slowly
with my hands on the steps, then sit down at the top to rest. The
doctor said he thought I should have an operation, and my friends
thought I would not live to move into our new house. My daughter
asked me to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound as she had
taken it with good results. I did so, my weakness disappeared, I
gained in strength, moved into our new home, do all kinds of garden
work, and raised hundreds of chickens and ducks. I cannot say
enough in praise of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound.”—Mrs.
M. O. Johnston, Route D, Box 190, Richmond, Ind.
Of course there are many serious cases that only a
surgical operation will relieve. We freely acknowledge
this, but the above letters, and many others like them,
amply prove that many operations are recommended when
medicine in many cases is all that is needed.

cine Co. (confidential) Lynn, Mass. Your letter will be opened,

XiAX-FOS
A Valued Household Remedy for
Over Half a Century.
In our climate, with its sudden
changes of temperature, rain, wind and
sunshine often intermingled in a single
day, it is no wonder that our children,
friends and relatives are so frequently
taken from us by neglected colds, many
deaths resulting from this cause. A
bottle of Boschee’s German Syrup kept
in the house, and a few doses taken in
time, will possibly prevent a severe ill-
ness, a doctor’s bill, and perhaps death.
For fifty years this has been a very
successful remedy for coughs, colds,
throat or lung troubles. It induces a
good night’s sleep with eaSy expec-
toration in the morning. For sale by
druggists in all parts of the civilized
world, 25 and 7£ cent bottles.—Adv.

Do You Neglect
Your Machinery?
The machinery of the body needs to
be well oiled, kept in good condition
just as the automobile, steam engine or
bicycle. Why should the human neglect
his own machinery more than that of
his horse or his engine? Yet most peo-
ple do neglect themselves. To clean
the system at least once a week is to
practice preventive measures. You will
escape many ills and clear up the coat-
ed tongue, the sallow complexion, the
dull headache, the lazy liver, if you will
take a pleasant laxative made up of
the May-apple, juice of the leaves of
aloes, root of jalap, and called Pleasant
Pellets. You can obtain at almost any
drug store in this country these vege-
table pellets in vials for 25c—simply
ask for Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets.
There can be no counterfeit if they
have the Dr. Pierce stamp. Proven
good by 50 years’ use.
