Cincinnati man tells how to dry up a com or callus so H lifts . 6ff with fingers. You corn-pestered men and women need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because a few drops of freezone applied directly on a tender, aching corn or callus, stops soreness at once and soon the corn or hardened callus loosens so it can be lifted off, root and all, without pain. A small bottle of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but will posi­ tively take off every hard or soft corn pr callus. This should be tried, as it Is inexpensive and is said not to irri­ tate the surrounding skin. If your druggist hasn't any freezone tell him to get a small bottler for you rtrom his wholesale drug house.--adv.

London, March 30.--Premier Lloyd George made' a declaration, in the house of commons in favor of woman suffrage. The premier said he wel­ comed the recommendation in favor of woman suffrage which was made In the program for electoral reform moved by former Premier Asquith. He favored a generous extension t of the electoral franchise by reducing to three months the period of quul(lfyln£ for voting, and by assuming the quali­ fication of every soldier and sailor. Mr. Asquith said the house would not be unprepared to hear that he and other members no longer regarded the question of woman suffrage from the standpoint they occupied before the war.

BELIEVED IN SAFETY FIRST Customer Didn't Car* to Cnter Into Any Argument With Bsrjber Who Was Shaving Him. fMrtfegr himself In the end chair tha fat plumber said to the barber: "That's some ottr • standing out' In front there; who is the Owner?" With a surreptitious wink at the waiting customers the barber nonchalantly: * ' "Oh, Quit's giik akfliNf-i Tomtit. bought." "How much is it worth?" "Only about $2,000." The plumber softly whistled.

First he says $10k and then he wants to know what is to be done;**: the head barber ejaculate^. ' , Just as the fat plumber was leaving the chair a prosperous looking man came to the front of the shop, got Into the big touring car, and drove rapidly away. "Ha, ha,ft thfe head barber laughed, "I fooled you about that automobile, didn't I?" % "I should soy not." "Then why didn't you hand me argument?" "1 knew you were joshing me all the. time," the plumber replied, "but any time I am lylng«fint on my hack and a man Is standing over me with a rar.or in his hand, he can say anything be likes and get away with It. I am strong for safety first,"--Youngstown Tele­ gram. PROMINENT MEN WITH MOB ijff't"' Fishing by Telephone. A strange way of discovering the whereabouts of fish is practiced in some parts or Norway, and the method was discovered by a clever Norwegian. A microphone, which is an instrument that will transmit the slightest sound, Is lowered into the water from a fish­ ing boat and a wire from the micro­ phone is attached to a telephone fixed in the boat. The operator takes the receiver of the telephone and places It to his ear. ready to signal to the fishermen when he hears the least sorind beneath the waters, and the f>«bing boat is then immediately steered • in the direction whence the ^••jnds come. The result is--a splen­ did haul. As cod. herring, and mackerel swim In enormous shoals, their passage thw,igh the water causes a rushing sormd *liich Is clearly heaitl by the flshe/men, who immediately steer in the Yvfluired direction and let down their rijts. Great Walkers. Charles Dickens was a great walk­ er. "Twelve, fifteen and even twenty miles day were none too much for Diefcetuj." Sir Walter Scott, too, walked '*20 or Tt'J miles without fatigue, not­ withstanding his limp." Browning, when past seventy, could take long walks, and Wordsworth could walk 20 miles a day after he had passed sixty years of age. De Quineey considered 14 mlteii a day necessary for Ills health, and Lamb, notwithstanding his "almost Immaterial legs," could walk well. Beethoven always took his daily walks Of five or more miles in all manner of weathers, while Turner traveled 20 miles a day, sketching as he walked. Herbert Spencer, at thirteen, in a fit of homesickness, walked 48 miles one day and 47 the~«exl; and it Is claimed that Tolstoi, at fifty-five, walked 130 miles in three days. The Memory. The memory is a very useful thing when it works right, but it often seems to be out of repair. Frequent­ ly It works like a carpet sweeper, picking up things no one has any mortal use for and passing over oth­ ers of great value. The memory can be trained and a trained memory is more valuable than a trained nurse or a trained seal. A -Neve Jersey man several years ago declared that he had a perfect memory and every one be­ lieved him till a clever person asked him to sing all the words of "Columbia the Gem of the Ocean." A faulty memory Is very mu?h like a nose­ bleed. It can be cured for the while by putting brown paper under the lip or tying a string tightly about the finger. *. ' , Pennanite War. The Pennanite war was a humorous name given to an early boundary dis­ pute between the colonies of Connec­ ticut and Pennsylvania. By the orig­ inal charter granted to William Penn, the northern. boundary of Pennsyl­ vania was fixed at latitude 43 degrees north. Connecticut claimed ' as far south as 41 degrees, and both colonies made settlements in the disputed ter­ ritory. There were many/clashes that came near to actual fighting, but final­ ly congress and the courts settled th^ dispute In favor of Pennsylvania. Why Patriarchs Lived Longer.

Baltimore, Md., April 3.--After the greutest patriotic detuougtration this city has seen since the Spanish-Ameri­ can war, a crowd of 4,000 persons stormed the Academy of Music on Sunday night, swept a cordon of police aside and smashed a big pacifist meet­ ing to bits, stopping Dr. David Starr Jordan In the middle of a Word and refusing to allow the speaking to con­ tinue. . "We will hang ftave Jordan to a sour apple tree." » - Thus sang the howling, swaying mob as it stortned the academy. Rev, Dr. It. W. Hogue, the leading spirit in the meeting, heard the omni- ous demonstration in the street. Harry A. Henkel, manager of the academy, summoned him to the rear of the stage, and, after a hurried talk, Doctor Hogue whispered to Doctor Jordan, who stepped aside. # Doctor Hogue than announced that the mob had broken Into the academy and as "lovers of peace" he asked fhe audience to disperse quietly. "No, we won't," yelled two or three men In the gallery. All this time rtie mob had been gath­ ering and working up fury and en­ thusiasm in the street. It was not njjgry until the pacifists emerged from the academy. It had been forced back by the police, ,and hnd Tetired at the request of Manager Henkel, from the building and stood a hundred deep in Howard street, ftom the Auditorium theater to the City college. Through this yelling crowd the po­ lice attempted to make a gap and used their clubs freely. In fact, too freely, those who witnessed the scene said. Among those arrested, charged by Marshal Carter with incltiug to riot, were: ', Douglas Ober, son of Gustavus Ober, a well-known banker and broker. Leonard Ober, twenty-twa years old. brother of Douglas. Carter Osborne, Jr., son of Carter G. Osborne, vice president of the Farmers and Merchants' National bank. Almost all of the men who were ar­ rested were injured more or less se­ verely. Young Osborne's face was badly mutilated. He was the hero of the hour. Bearing an Amerftan flag, whicft he enthusiastically waved, he was seized by the crowd, lifted to the shoulders of-liulf a dozen men and car* ried around the street. Philadelphia, April 3.--When .the po­ lice closed the Broad street theater against an anti-war demonstration the pacifists stormed into a religious meet­ ing in the Forest theater and almost caused a riot by declaiming against America. Led by Ardo Herring, one of the ex­ ecutives of the Emergency Peace fed­ eration, 500 disgruntled peace advo­ cates inarched inLu^the meeting. "Do you believe In America?' ring was asked. i "No, I do not," he answered with heat. Herring talked for five minutes,, and then Ely called on Joseph Elkinton. Then Ely himself talked peace.
