number had fallen out and had to
ride on the ambulance wagons.

nee boy, is also a member of this di-
vision.
Mr. Humphries said that he had
met and talked with many soldiers
who had fought at Verdon and that
lie had many a night gone to sleep
with the guns in the battle of the
Somme resounding in his ears like
distant thunder. He said their bar-
racks were very comfortable and
mentioned the chief amusement be-
ing the grinding of a phonograph
which set on the floor and was
played by some one continuously.
He also mentioned receiving and
greatly enjoying the Christmas box
es that were sent him.

"There's a Reason'
Many women refrain from taking
out a car for fear that they may be
caught on the road with a flat tire

THAT TORTI RED YOI
Cincinnati anthorlt> tells how to dry
up a corn so It lifts out.
You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the
shoes that nearly killed you before,
says this Cincinnati authority, be-
cause a few drops of freezone ap-
plied directly on a tender, aching
corn losens so It can be lifted out,
root and all, without pain.
A quarter of an ounce of freezone
costs very little at any drug store,
but is sufficient to take off every
hard or soft corn or callus. This
should be tried, as it is inexpensive
and is said not to inflame or even
irritate the surrounding tissue or
skin.—Adv.
