Statistics ehow that many deaths have occurred from this seemingly innocent practice of par insr corns. Simply go to your druggist and get a few cents worth of Ice-Mint, rib a little on any pamiui corn or callous. Imme diately the pain will disappear and in a short time the corn or callous will loosen and lift off easily with the fingers root nd all leaving the surrounding akin In a healthy normal condition. This, together with the fact that Ice Mint overcomes such affections as sore, tired, aching, puffed or burning feet and makes them cool, easy and comfortable, is probably responsible for the hearty indorsement given it by druggists.

CORONA APPEARS JUNE 8 Entire Duration of Eclipse, Total and Partial, Is Less Than 2 Hours Astronomers Gather at Baker. Just a trifle more than a week away. Interest centers in the total eclipse of the sun. which Is to trav erse Oregon and America on Saturday. June 8. At the local Weather Bureau scores of questions concerning the solar spectacle arrive daily by letter and phone. Most of these concern the time at which the eclipse will be vis ible in various localities. Confusion has anisen concerning the moment when the shadow of the moon first encroaches on the sun's disc and the moment when totality occurs. While Portland is not in the direct path of totality and must be content with 98 per cent, the time of shadow arrival and the time nearest approach ing totality should not be confused, for the entire duration of the eclipse, total and partial, is only a little less than two hours. Baker Favorite Spot. The first contact of the shadow will anrive at the mouth of the Columbia River at 2:35 o'clock, new time, on the afternoon of June 8.

At Baker, where the eclipse will be generally observed by scientists, the first contact will take place at 2:57. with totality at 4:05. The period of totality varies from slightly more than a minute to slightly less than two minutes, with one minute and 53 seconds at Baker.

Kimball, of the United States Weather Bureau, who spent several hours in Portland yesterday. Eastern Scientist Here. Kos his purpose Professor Kimball has chosen Goldendale, Wash., ex pressing the belief that there Is less danger from cumulus clouds in that vicinity than there is at Baker, though he admits that atmospheric conditions are likely to be clearer in the latter place. Professor Kimball carries no photo graphic or telescopio apparatus, as his wortc is not along astronomical lines He is Interested In the measurement of heat radiations from the earth. Hith erto such measurements have been taken at night, and it has been diffi cult to arrive at any accurate esti mate of radiation during the day, when the sun, also sending forth heat radiations, affects the instruments. With the sun blotted out in mid afternoon, the long awaited opportu nity is to be seized for the measure ment of heat radiation from the earth unaffected by solar influences.

' I (Advertisement) HAS GAINED FIFTEEN POUNDS ON TANLAC William Carrick Says He Is Kow Ready to Go Back to Work Again. "Before I began taking this Tanlac I scarcely weighed one hundred pound, so today when 1 got on the scales and the beam went up to one hundred and fifteen, giving rae a gain- ot fifteen pounds or more. 1 was one ot the roost surprised persons you ever saw." The above statement was made ty William Carrick. a well-known car penter living at "OSvj Pacific Ave, Tacoma. Wash., while In the French. Drug Company's store recently. Contin uing his statement. Mr. Carrick said: "Several months ago I contracted a. very hard, dry cough, which I could get nothing to relieve me of. There waa a tight- stuffed-up feeling in my chest and the strain from coughing at ttms would almost overcome my strength. Then I commenced to cough up mucua and phlegm so much that It would nau seate me. My appetite left me. mv stomach got In a bad condition and I became very weak. I finally got in such a bad shape that I waa forced to give up my work entirely. For two months I was up and down, just hardly able to get around, and for three weeks was una Die to leave my room. I waa badly constipated and so nervous that: couldn t get a good night's sleep. I got so I couldn't eat a thing except a. small piece of toast and a little sweet milk, and even this failed to agree with me. I fell off until I barely weighed, one hundred pounds, and vat so sick and weak I couldn't even go down stairs. Then I decided to try Tanlac. aa I had read so much about It In the pa pers, and my improvement has been a. great surprise to me. I am now C& years old and a medicine Is bound to be good that will do so much for one ot my age in so short a time. I have just finished ray second bottle and. as I said before, I have already gained fif teen pounds. I have gotten rid of thac tightness In my chest and the cough entirely, and my appetite has improved until I can eat most anything without the least discomfort afterwards. My nerves are getting better all the time. 1 sleep well at night and feel so much. stronger that I'm going right back to work. I have been so much benefited that I have written M- sister, who has stomach trouble, sending her a clipping rrom the newspaper about Tanlac and telling her whatever she does to trv It. as It certainly has done me a world of good. Neglected coughs and colds result in catarrh and lung troubles. Catarrh of the stomach la the most frequent cause of dyspepsia and catarrh of the nose and throat lead to inevitable deafness. In the treatment of these troubles Tan lac is unquestionably the best and most satisfactory preparation known. Not only does Tanlac seem to remove the catarrhal secretions and allay the lung pain, but It Is blood Improving, appe tite giving, food assimilating, nerve strengthening and upbuilding. Tanlao will convince anyone who tries it that it Is the most helpful and the most ra tional method for treating catarrh and Its distressing consequences, and hun dreds of testimonials are being received daily from people who have been bene fited by Its use.
