LIFT YOUR CORNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
Telia how to loosen a tender corn
or callus so it lifts out
without pain.
You reckless men and women who
arc pestered with corns and who have
at least once a week invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authority
to use a drug called freezone, which
the moment a few drops are applied
to any corn or callus the soreness is re
lieved and soon the entire corn or cal
lus, root and all, lifts off with the fin
gers.
Freezone dries the moment it is ap
plied, and simply shrivels the corn or cal
lus without inflaming or even irritating
the surrounding tissue or skin. A small
bottle of freezone will cost very little
at any of the dnig stores, but will posi
tively rid one's feet of every hard or
soft corn or hardened callus. If your
druggist hasn’t any freezone he can get
it at any wholesale drug house for you,

Wiv* rfheauialustn
With Cold Weather
BY VALENTINE MOTT PIERCE, M D
/v cuw connpction exists oeiween
fhese two—cold weather and rheu
matism. Pro(. Alex. Haig, of London,
has the most followers in the medical
profession in the belief that the pres
ence in the system of uric acid, or its
Balts in excess, is the real cause of rheu
matism. Everyone has recognized the
difference in the appearance of their
water as soon as it gets cold ; there is
often a copious sediment of brickdust.
Several causes may lead up to an
accumulation of uric acid in the system,
which, in turn, causes rheumatism or
gout, or creaky joints, or swollen lingers,
or painful joints. For one reason the
ekin does not throw off the uric acid, by
profuse sweating, as in the hot weather,
and the kidneys are unable t'> take care
of the double burden. Another reason
is that people an not urmK as nnicii
water in cold weather as in summer,
which helps to (lush the kidneys. Again,
they eat more meat in cold weather, and
some people are so susceptible that they
soon develop rheumatism after eating
meat.
At all such times persons should drink
copiously of hot water, say, a pint
morning and night, and take Anuric
three or four times a day. This An
uric comes in tablet form and can be
bad at almost any drug store. It dis
solves the uric ac.d in the system
and carries it outward. I would advise
everyone to take Anuric occasionally,
and continue for three or four weeks,
and in that way hyoid rheumatism, gout
and many of the painful disorders due
to uric acid.
JUNE 5, 1865—June 5, la*.
These two dates are coincidental,
as to days and months, but noncoin
cidental as to years and significance.
June 5, 18G5, was the final ending of
the Civil War, the surrender of all the
boys west of the Mississippi river.
Our boys went to old Jacksonport to
surrender.
June 6, 1917, is the beginning, in a
way, of the world war with the Unit,
ed States. Registration of the flower
of our land of the free and home of
the brave. It reaches away dowr
deep in my soul as I think of it. IWell
do I rememeber on the 11th of June,
1861, when the 110 picked men of our
old community and adjoining neigh
borhoods gathered at Sulphur Rock
under the leadership of the gallant
^api. jonn n. uye. it was a scene
to a boy, ten years old; or to any one
else. To try to describe it would be
too tedious and pathetic. Old men, old
women, fathers, mothers, brothers
sisters, friends and sweethearts, were
there to say goodbye to the soldier,
husband or neighbor, print a sacred
kiss on his lips and breath a devout
prayer to God for his will being. I
saw them line up, and heard my
sweet, now angel sister, Mary, deliver
the address and present the flag. I
saw the old folks go down the line
with the “goodbye hug and kiss” for
son, and husband and friend. I got
about half way down the line to Jack
Holcomb, when all at once it went
to pieces and I did not get to tell
them all goodbye and I felt I was
ruined. Into line again, two and two,
and off for the wrar they marched,
out the old military road toward Do
ta.
Poor old boys! Many, many never
returned.
And on the 5th of June, 65, my
brother, Tom, got home out of the
war. That was a joyful day at our
old home. A little remarkable that
his entire ‘mess” all got home, Tom
Jernigan, Tom Padgett, Tom Ward,
Ped Tunstall, Crock Wade and Will
Holcomb.
Another thought: I see your re
marks about your High School. A
word or two now and I let go. I see
the first school house built at Newark
a little box house, in the corner next
to the To mRaney home. I used to
preach in it. Then I see the big stately
brick, you now have. And it is now
too small. Well, it is not saying any
thing but the truth that as long as
the Arnolds and Magnesses live at
Newark, and marry and multiply
you will still have to build new school
houses.

WHAT IS
LAX-FOS
LAX-rOS IS AN IMPROVED CASCARA
A Digestive Laxative
CATHARTIC AND LIVER TONIC
Lax-Fos is not a Secret or Patent Medi
cine but is composed of the following
old-fashioned roots and herbs:
CASCARA BARK
BLUE FLAG ROOT
RHUBARB ROOT
BLACK ROOT
MAY APPLE ROOT
SENNA LEAVES
AND PEPSIN
In Lax-Fos theCascara is improved by
the addition of these digestive ingredi
ents making it better than ordinary Cas
cara, and thus the combination acts not
only as a stimulating laxative and cathar
tic but also as a digestive and liver tonic.
Syrup laxatives are weak, but Lax-Fos
combines strength with palatable, aro
matic taste and does not gripe or disturb
the stomach. • One- bottle will prove
Lax-Fos is invaluable for Constipation,
Indigestion or Torpid Liver. Price 50c.
GOOD ROADS A NECESSITY
Since the advent of motor driven
vehicles good roads are more of a ne
cessity' in all parts of the country
than ever before. The farmer is the
largest gainer from road improve
ment, although it is difficult to get
him to see it in that light. Where
the roads have been improved tin
farms are rapidly improving. Good
roads afford quick and easy trans
portation and the farmer has almost
unconciously caught the spirit of
improvement, and the time saved in
hauling is being used for farm im
provement.

LAXATIVE
^ for
Aged
People
THE BANE of old age is constipation. The bow
els become weak and unable to perform their
functions without aid. For this purpose only
the mildest and gentlest laxative should be used.
The use of harsh cathartics aggravates the trouble
and makes the constipation worse. Chamberlain’s
Tablets are a favorite with people of middle age
and older on account of their gentle action.
