R train et Bal'th. A meeting of his old neighbors was hurriedly rnlled and on account of the storm it was thought best to have a small deputation meet the train and convey him to the residence of Mr and Mrs. P. W. Scott, when a public welcome would be extend- ed to the hero, Accordingly about 70 guests were on hand out owing to the de• ;ailment of the Winnipeg express at Tor onto yards, the train did not arrive at Blyth till 11.40 p in where the Blyth people received the hero with cheers and songs and hearty hand shaking, and the fair ones with even, better expressions of pleasure and delight. Peter W. got the guest and his uncle and aunt in the motor car and amid cheers and singing by the crowd "He's a Jolly Good Fellow," the start was made for the good old Oth con. As no speed cops were out the motor act was suspended and arrival was anade at the Hou•e ot Reception, just as the clock pointed to 12. A bunch of the 6th boys were standing at attention, and cheers. which could be heard above the storm were given. Charlie was grasped by his churns and carried shoulder high and deposited in the parlor. while Mr and Mrs Henry sang that touching song "Home Again." Mr, Thos Gear as chairman received the Sergt. with an ad- dress of welcome which was nicely re- sponded to by the guest from France Short speeches were trade by R. Henry, M. McDowell and P. W. Scott, and songs by Messrs Keating and Fells after which the ladies gave a tasty lunch. The guests after s nging vigorously ' For He's a Jolly Good Fellow" started for their homes. Sergt Coultes is on 10 days leave and does not expect his discharge for six months We omitted to state that Sergt;t;oultes lost his arm at Vimy Ridge. i IIII1II11III1111IIIIIIIUIIIII1111111111111111IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII11IIIIII111111111111i1II1I111Ii 11111111 IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlI1II1II11I1 111 as!

Suffer terribly with corns because o high heel., but why care now Women wear high heels which buckle up their toes and they suffer terribly from corns. Women then proceed to trim these pests, seeking relief, but they hardly realize the terrible danger from infection, says a Cincinnati anthority. Cosns can easily be lifted out with the fingers if you will get from any drug store a quarter of an ounce of a druT called treezone. This- is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one's feet. You simply apply a few drops directly upon the tender, aching corn or callous. root and all, lifts out without one particle of pain. This freezone is a sticky substance which dries m a moment. It just shrivels up the corn without inflaming or even ir- ritating the surrounding tissue or skin.
