Mark Twain’s Childhood.
Mark Twain used to tell the pathe­
tic story of his childhood. It seems,
according to the story, that Mark waa
born twins. He and his twin looked
so much alike that no one, not even
their mother, could tell them apart.
One day, while the nurse was bathing
them, one o f them slipped In the bath­
tub and was drowned. No one ever
knew which twin It was that was
drowned— and therein, says Mark, was
the tragedy. "Everyone thought I was j
the one that lived,” he said, "hut 1
wasn't It was my brother who lived.
I was the one that was drowned.”—

You reckless men and women who

at leaat once a week Invited an awful
death from lockjaw or blood poison
are now told by a Cincinnati authority
to use a drug called freesone, which
the moment a few drops are applied
to any corn or callous the soreness is
relieved and soon the entire corn or
callous, root and all, lifts off with the
fingers.
Freesone dries the moment It !s ap­
plied. and simply shrivels the corn or
callous without Inflaming or even Ir­
ritating the surrounding tissue or
skin. A small bottle of freezone will
cost very little at any of the drug
stores, but will positively rid one’s
feet of every bard or soft corn or
hardened callous.
I f your druggist
