Wt corns of ;alleluias off with fingers no pain. No humbug! Any corn, whether bard or soft or between the toee, will loosen right up and lift out, without a perttole of pain or soreness. This drug is called freezone and is a compound of ether discovered by a Olnoinnati man. Ask at any drug store 'for a small bottle of freezone, which will cost but a trifle, but is sufficient to rid one's feet of every corn or callous. Put a few drops directly upon any tender, aohingcora or callus. Instant- ly the soreness disappears and shortly the corn or callus will loosen and can be lifted off with the fingers. This drug freezone doesn't eat out the corns or calluses but shrivels them without even irritating the surround- ing skin. Just think! No pain at all; no sore- ness orsnlarting when applying it or afterwards. If your druggistdon't have freezone have him order it for you. Brussels J. J.

Ward Price writes from the Dal• Iran front: There are not many things that the armies of our four allies in the Balkans can teach the English, hut -ht my experience, at least-- eaoking is a matter in which we have to give them best. Our actual rations, of course, aro the envy of all others. French officers covet as a luxury even the plum and apple jam which is the traditional object of the ,British sol• dler'e "grouse." But when it comes to the preparation of food for the of- ficers' mess the average of both French and Serbians leaves our own. behind. Need No Kitchens The Serbians have two strong points in their war cuisine -their soups and their pastries. They can produce these of excelirsnt quality in the most improbable situations, 1 spent a good deal df time in artillery observation posts on the Corna. You are on a steep mountain with huge outcrops and monoliths of rock all round. Not annunruined village within miles. Hardly a tree that could he used for firewood. Three or four batteries thudding away close at hand; infantry clambering up the slopes opposite un- der fire; and Bulgarian soldiers Visible among the rocks above. Just es you. are bringing out the Inevitable sardines, and the hunk of bread from your haversack, and set- tling down under the lee of a rock to eat them, a Serbian officer comes along and leads you to a little shel- tered cranny somewhere, and there is t tablecloth laid on a couple of planks, end a tureen of rich meat soup, follow- ed by a sort of stew which is a national dish, and after that this won- derful pastry. Flaky, delicate, with a luscious cream inside -the sort of thing that is technically known as Mille feuilles; or sometimes you have marzipan cakes or jam sandwiches with colored ornamental icing, just as ff you wee'e in Bond street instead of on a Serbian mountain in the mid - dee of a battle, ' Frowsy, But Unbeatable "This is a flapper's tea in' the firing line," I said, greedily eating a second helping, And' they have pastry of this kind right up in the trenches even. There is a pastrji cook to al- most every battalion. They are rough looking, weather-beaten fellows as a rule, with grizzly moueltaches, who look as if they had spent their life curing biltong instead of making dainty sugar sweetmeats. How they achieve the effects they do on a fire made of chance scraps of wood I cannot tell, but after the war I am thinking of collecting a •few of them and establishing a "Serbsky Cafe" in London. If they can do half as well in a proper kitchen as in a muddy trench we shall cut out every tea shop in town. LYING THROUGH FILMS No Picture of Sad, Heavy German Wo- men Navvies Wanted A neutral visiting London from Ber- lin, says: A contrast between Britain p.nd Germany is the amount of heavy work that is being done by the women of Berlin. Hera in London 1 notice women conductors of street cars and omnibuses; I saw a woman scavenger in a provincial town the other day ,•• ,vou have women ticket collectors, women operating elevators, clerking In bank read l s. I e d thatwomen are becoming railroad porters. All these things happened in Berlin as far back es September, 1914. It is the boast bf "the Germans that their building constructions are going on as usual. The seconstruction of the Nord -Sud Bahn of the underground railway, for linking up' the north and south sec- tions of Berlin, has proceeded right along, the women doing the lioavy Work of navvies. The German Government is not too proud of this fact. • An American ktnenaotograph. operator, Mr. Edwards of Mr. Hearst's papers, was desirous of taking a film of these women nav- vies -heavy, sad looking creatures they are. The Government stepped Sir and suggested that while they had #10 objection to a personally conduct- ed and posed picture, in which the women would no doubt smile to qqrr, der, they could not permit the reali- ties of this unwomanly task tq be shown in the form of trtlth•telltng Moving pictures, INDUSTRY IN TRENCHES Making of Amateur Jewelry a Pas. elan With Soldiers The monotony of life in the French as in the British, trenches is varied by a number of small industries, turning to account bits of stone or Wood or enemy cartridge case and spent bullets in ingenious trifles for Use or for mementoes. Quite the most popular manufacture is that of finger rings from the aluminum used in Greman shells -"les bagues boches" they are called. These are of many kinds, from roughly hollowed out circlets to highly polished rings decorated with delicately shaped fern leaves and hearts or inlaid with pieces of polished French copper on the top of the German metal. The French soldiers carry this pas- sion for snaking amateur jewelry into hospitals. The British nurses at L'Abbaye Royaumont tell us that )most oftheir patients who can use their hands are busy making "lee bagues boohes" at every available moment after the surgeon's morning visit. ' They all have their little stores of German aluminum in their musettes or pockets and many have brought with them a oonzplete plltilt of files, vise, emery paper and finger blocks Gitt fr } bits of "sticks. When the time Cors for the "sortants" to bid good-bye to comrades and eta there is an interchange of souvenirs, Then it is that "les heves bodies" fulfil a pleasant destiny of further strengthening the entente cordiale as gifts for the fingers of British ward sisters and nurses, ,'horses Worth White .
