If The London Advertiser would devote as touch energy to the cause of the empire And humanity as it is devoting to the at- tempt to keep the people divided on party lines it would be doing itself great credit. 13y its attitude during the past few weeks that journal is doing an injury to the cause for which so many Canadians are fighting and dying, and also bringing on Liberalism a stigma which will not be wip- ed out for generations to come. Evil, and evil only, can be the result of such tactics in this day of national trial and tribula- tion,— ;sir Robert Borden went to France and came back convinced that nothing but Selective Draft by a Military Service Act could fill and keep filled the depleted ranks of the gallant Canadian Army Hon N W.

And he stated to Mr. Saunders, the third nominee in this riding, that he would retire and allow Mr. Saunders to be returned by acclamation as far as he was concerned. It remained for Mr. Hislop, the Laurier nominee, to announce publicly thaVhe was in the "fight to the finish." The only chance of ave rt• ing an election contest in North Huron apparently, was to allow Mr. Hislop in by acclamation. according to Mr. Hislop.

WILSON, Clerk, LIKE AN ELECTRIC BUTTON ON TOES Tells why a corn is so painful and says "cutting makes them grow Press an electric button and you form a contact with a live wire which rings the bell. When shoes press against your corn it pushes its sharp roots down upon a sen- sitive nerve and you get a shock of pain. Instead of trimming your corns, which only make them grow, just step into any drug store and ask for a quarter of an ounce of freezone. This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet, A few drops applied directly upon a tender aching corn stops the soreness instantly, and soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts rightout, root and all, without pain. This drug freezone is harmless and never in- flames or even irritates the surrounding skin.
