HIGH HEEL SHOES
Tells Women How to Dry Up
a Corn So It Lifts Out
WithoutPain
..Modem high heeled foot weal- buckles
the toes and produces coins, and many
of the thousands of hospital cases of
infection and lockjnw are tho result of
woman's suicidal habit of trying to cut
away these-painful pests.
For little cost there can bo obtained
at any pharmacy a quarter of an ounce
of a drug called freezone, whitti is
sufficient to rid one's feet of every
hard or soft corn or callus without the
slightest danger or inconvenience.
A tew drops applied directly upon
the tender, aching corn stops the sore
ness and shortly the entire corn, root
and all, lifts riaht out. It is a sticky
substance, which dries tho moment it
is npplied, and thousands of men and
women use it because the corn shrivels
up and comes out without inflaming
or even irritating the surrounding tis
sue or sKin. uut this out and try it if
your corns bother you.

With the iuterest shown in the of-

bv the younj men of (falem, there is
.i. i i .
very project that a class of from 20
to 2j will be formed here for instrue-
tiou preparatory to taking examinations'
for commissions in the corps. '
With this excellent and encouraging
showing, it is believed certain that of-
f icers will be detailed from Vancouver
to come to this city to give instruction
mi also to hold the examinations when
i lie time comes.
Men who are willing to accent second
lit ut'MMiicos in the infantry, cavalrr,
or field nrtiiiery are wanted whether
they l ave had previous military train-
ing or not. If they are capable mental-

In issuing the call for young men in-
terested in the reserve corps, Captain
Koscnberg stated last evening that it is
officers for the firing line, men who
have the fight in them, that are wanted.
Men who are looking for sinecures in
staff positions will find little chance
of having their "looking" satisfied,
for these positions have practically all
been filled with experienced men.
It is hoped by Captain Rosenberg
that the class for instruction can be
formed this evening when tho men in
terested are n.slccd to meet iu the com
pany room at the armory. Captain Ros
enberg expects to have anDlieation
blanks ready this evening so that those
who wish mat send in their applications
Ht once. As the government requires
noout im.uiiu otticers for the corps, and
as there have been only about 0,000 men
commissioned, thero is an excellent
chance that an able bodied young man
under :?2 years can get a commission as
secoim lieutenant.

Market Extremely Dull
. Prices Unchanged
New York, Mar. 23- The New York
Evening Nun financial review today
said:
Little interest was manifested in to
day's stock nmrkct. Trading was quiet
er than in any previous session this
week. Price .changes with few excep
tions' were narrow. The reason for this
subdued state of affairs is not far to
seek and may be attributed in tho main
to the sobriety imposed by the first
stage of war preparations.
It is the cnlin before the storm. In
the eae of the stock market, tho period
of calm is likely to last until the spe
cial session of congress meets Anril 8.
It is pretty generally agreed that Wall
street will mrrk time until then... The
financial district is the prey of ndl sorts
of rumors. Today it heard that the
kaiser is dangerously ill, that various
things had happened to some of our
ships which the new publicity under
standing does not permit to be detailed,
and so on.
Until well into the afternoon the
standard industrials ruled closely
around the previous closing level, ill
tho last hour there was a general up
ward movement throughout tho entire
list, with a particularly good demahd
for the railroads shares.' This movement
had the appearance of a drive against
tne short interest based on the applica
tion of the railroads for an increase of
from 10 to 15 per cent in freight rates,
Features of strength among the indus-
trials were the skipping shares, which'

were in better demand, particularly

Mayor Would Devote r
Week To Patriotism
Proclamation of "Patriotic Week"
beginning next Sunday was made to
day by Mayor Waltet. E. Keyes as a
move necessary to sustain the good
reputation of Company M and the city
of Salem. He points out that tho dan
ger of losing the company is great and
that if the company is taken away
from the city that the armory, which
has been the only place available for
the holding of concerts and public
meetings, will he closed.
With this end in view, he urges that
every effort be made to recruit the
company up to minimum strength at
least, that the fair name of the city
may be maintained, and some othe1
town that could bo hidden in a few Sa
lem precincts does not get the, military
company that belongs here.
The following is the mayor's procla
mation: "Whereas, there .is a movement on
foot throughout the state to increase
tho membership of the companies of
the national guard in compliance withj
the governor's proclamation, and
"Whereas, we have an armory in
this city of the value of fifty thou
sand dollars, and
"Whereas, it is necessary to recruit
Company M of the-eity of Salem, Ore
gon, to the required standard in num
bers in order to keep the doors of said
armory open, and
"Whereas, it is highly expedient
that said armory should be maintained, j
and that the capital city should con
tribute something toward the preser
vation of our country.
"Now, therefore, I, Walter V.. Keyes
as mayor of tho city of Salem, Oregon,
hereby proclaim the week beginning
March 25, 1917, as Patriotic Week for
the city of Salem, during which time
the officers of Company M of the Ore
gon National Gufudj will make a spe
cial effort to recruit said company to
full capacity."

SOUTH AMERICA FEARS
INJURY TO FINANCES
If America Gets Into
Fears Cncentration
Money at Home
War
of
By Charles P. Stewart
(United Press staff correspondent)
Buenos Aires, Mar. 1!3. South Amer
ica is apprehensive that entrance of
the United States into the war may
seriously affect its finances. From high
sources in Argentine today the belief
was expressed that sucha step by tho
United States now regarded as cer
tain would result in concentration of
American money into war; measures
and result in a curtailment of foreign
loans, except to the allies fighting
against Germany.
In any event, officials closely in
touch with Latin-American sentiment
declared all other American nations
would remain neutral, no matter what
course was adopted by the United
States.
The Argentine press today was with
out comment on the extra session call
in the United States and tho "warlike
preparations started there.
Hence Argentine's foreign policy
will be under direction of Fernando
Saguier. His acceptance of tho portfo
lio was announced today. Personally
Saguier is pro-allv, but it is generally
understood in Argentino circles that he
will be merely a rubber stamp person
ality for President Irigoyen. The post
of minister of foreign affairs has been
vacant for several months.

AT
Arsenal at Springfield and All
Factories To Be Run to
Limit
Washington, March 23. With facili
ties for producing 1,500 rifles a day.
the government arsenals at Springfield
and Rock Island are today .turning out
only "about" 500 every 24 hours.
Up to September 1, Springfield was
turning out fifiy or sixty rifles daily;
the rifle works at Rock Island had
been idle for years.
There are available today approxi
mately 800 000 Springfield rifles of
the latest type used by the a-rmv.
There are also available about 400,000
Krags that had been discarded for the
new model but which aro still service
able. According to Representative Hull,
republican, Iowa, member of the house
military committee it is the fault of
congress that the plants have not been
turning out more, rifles. The army ap
propriation bill, would have furnished
money needed for this purpose had it
not been killed when the "twelve wil
ful" filibusters blocked all legislation
at the last session. . .
Hull said arrangements are now un
der way to run the plants at full
capacity within a short time.

THE OLD MAN
(By Robert J. Burdette)
Iehabod, my boy, methought 1 heard
you speak of your father this morning
'the old man. ' iou arc eighteen
years of age, arc you not
.lust so.
That is the age when callow youth
has its first attack of bighead. Vou
imagine at this moraont that you know
it all.
1 observe by the cut of your trous
ers, the angle' of your hat, the tip of
your head, the flavor of your breath,
the style of your toothpick shoes, and
the swagger of your walk, that you arc
badly gono on yourself.
This is an error of youth which your
uncle can overlook; but it pains him
sorely to hear you speak in terms of
disrespect of one you should never
mention save by the sacred nunie,
"father."
He may not be up to your style in
the modern art of making a fool of him

The secret of keeping young is to

of having a sallow complexion dark

ninety per cent of all sickness conies
from inactive bowels and liver.
Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician
in Ohio, perfected a vegetable com
pound mixed with olive oil to act on
the liver and bowels, which lie gave to
his patients for years.
Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets, the sub
stitute for calomel, are gentle in their
action, yet always effective. They bring
about that exuberance of spirit, that
natural buoyancy which should be en
joyed by everyone, by toning up the liver
and clearing the system of impurities.
