Is called freezone, and can
now be obtained In tiny
bottles as here shown at
very little cost from any
drug store. Just ask for
freezone. Apply a drop or
two directly upon a tender
corn or callus and Instant-

Shortly you will find the
corn or callus so loose that
you can lift it off, root
and all, with the fingers.
Not a twinge of pain,
soreness or irritation; not
even the slightest smart-

Judge Cohalan requests the
transmission of the following re-
marks:
"The revolution In Ireland can
only be successful If supported
from Germany, otherwise England
will be aWe to suppress It, even
though it be only after hard strug
gles. Therefore help Is necessary.
This should consist, primarily, of
aerial attacks in England and a
diversion of the fleet simultan-
eously with Irish revolution. Then.
If possible, a landing of troops,
arms and ammunition in Ireland,
and possibly some officers from
Zeppelins. This would enable the
Irish ports be closed against Eng-
land and the establishment of sta-
tions for submarines on the Irish
coast and the cutting off of the
supply of food for England. The
services of the revolution may
therefore decide the war.

effect be sent to Berlin.

Concerning the Identity of the last
entry there might be room for doubt
tors It was unwaveringly asserted that
the Liebau concern was a bona fide
employment agency and nothing else,
with no object other than to secure
positions for German, Austrian, or
Hungarian workmen seeking employ-
ment. That was for publication only.
In Von Igel's papers the truth appears,
brought out by the refusal of the j
Austro Hungarian embassy to continue '
its subsidies to the bureau.
