one of tte gowns called for by ths
seript wherewith Bernard Marshall, Su-

The story calls for 'a heap o' dressiii,'

undoubtedly adorns the duds she wears.
All the costumes worn iu the play were
maue in America, a fact on wbich the
young star dilates with pride.

. Keep Corns?
Lift a corn or callus right off

Yes! You truly can lift
off every hard corn, soft
corn or corn between the
toes, as well as hardened
ca'uses on bottom of feet,
without one bit of pain.
A genius in Cincinnati
discovered fieezone. It is
an ether compound and
tiny bottles of this niagia
fluid can now be had at
any drug store for a few
cents.
Apply several drops of
this freezone upon a ten
der, aching corn or a cal
lus. Instantly all soreness
disappears and shortly you
will find the corn or cal
lus so shriveled and loose
that you lift it off with
the fingers. You feel no
pain while applying freez
one or afterwards.
Just think! No more
corns or calluses to torture
you and they go without
causing one twinge oi
pain or soreness. Keep a
tiny bottle on the dresser - and never
let a corn or callus ache twice.

much they could do. Naturally they do
not expect to serve over the firing line;
but theie is a variety of ways in which
a woman with a flying temperament
could make herself useful.
Airplanes could be used for locating
and removhip wounded from the field,
and for carrying certain cases from the
clearing stations to hospitals surely a;
sphere in whir, women would run no
risk of becoming unsexed.
English women have no lust for blood.
They don't want to kill, but they do
wunt t help their men. The wish, is so
fervent that it becomes almost an ache.
Thus they ore already an integral part
of the Britis), army. They cannot be
excluded from aviation on logical
grounds. It is no use putting forward
the sentimental argument, because that
is all in .their favor.
There is a great probability that wo
men will be needed, and they are willing.
All they asK is to be trained so that
they would ho ready should the emer
gency arise. j
Here is a way in which women run
ho'p their menfolk, ml to want a thing
oaiuy enough is to get itl
tho British, French and American
fronts in France.
A few weeks ago, the eentrnl work
rooms received an urgent appeal from
the American army for 200,000 first aid
packages to be suplied to American sol
diers. Each of these packages was, to
contain 12 articles, the whole order
thus involving tho manufacture of 2,
400,000 separate dressings, together
with an enormous amount of labor in
connection with the careful packing
and shipment of the packages. This
work, moreover, was to be carried on
without interfering with the regular
duties of the wokroouis in supplying
their usual hospital supplies. It wa a
big order; but the executive commit
tee telegraphed its answer immediate
ly: "We will deliver first aid packages
as requested, at rae of 1",000 per week
beeinnincf immediately." From the
firRt week, this rate has been exceeded !
and the entire order has now been fill- i
d and is in the bands of the American I
army authorities!.
Some time ago, the workrooms made
grnngements with Mine: Caton de
Wiat of the Belgian relief committee
for a large number of hospital garments
to be made by Belgian women refugees
in Great Britain. These garments are
made iu their homes in various parts
of Great Britain, the cutout garments
being sent in hampers to Madame de
Wiart snd returned finished to the
workrooms. Payments for the work is
made-.to Madame de Wiart in bulk and
distributed by her to the individual
workers.

tion made by dissolving an ounce of

'drawn in," facial contour is improved
wonderfully. The simple ingredients of
