Ouch ! ? ! ? ! ! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that a few drops
of a drug called freezone when applied
to a tender, aching corn stops soreness
at once, and soon the corn dries up
..nd lifts right out 'without pain.
elle says freezone is an ether com-
pound which dries immediately and
never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter
of an ounce of freezone will cost very
little at any drug store, but is suffi-
cient to remove every hard' or soft
corn or callus from one's feet. Millions
of American women will welcome this
• announcement since the inauguration'
of the high heels.

Now is the time to have your

This being one of the barbers

HOW TO KEEP WELL
4 BY JOHN W. S. Mc0tLLOUGH, M.D., D.P,H., CHIEF OFFICER
OF' THE PROVINCIAL BOARD OF HEALTH.
BEFORE GOING to a place for your summer vacation it is well to be
sere that the water -supply is not likely to give you or the mem-
bers of your family typhoid fever. Get a sterilized bottle from
One Pre iecial Board of Health Laboratory at No. 5 Queen's Park,
and bare the water examined. If you have a cottage of your own,
take particular ears that the contents of your water -closet is screened
against the ee.traawe of dies which may carry disease to your family or the
families of your neighbors. Besides, if you take those precautions, you. wilt
have a right to demand that your neighbors take litre precautions. If you
use a closet, be particularly careful that its contents do
TBE StI9llftlR not get to any source of water supply.
RESORT If there is a good supply of -sand near your cottage
it is a cheap and simple matter to instal a system of sub-
surface sewage disposal. The Provincial Board of Health will supply you
with a pamphlet telling all about how to establish a plant of this kind. If
there is no sant or gravel the safest system to use is a closet with buckets,
using dry earth or ashes to cover the excreta each time of using. I•Iave
close -fitting lids to the closet holes and a screen door to keep out the files,
It is a good plan to get your doctor to inoculate you against typhoid and
paratyphoid fevers.
If you are act satisfied that the drinking water is pure, either get a
safe supply or bell all water used about your place.

Some of the dieters aro complaining because the Registrar General is
prosecuting them for Yet reporting births. Well, they cannot complain that
they have Dot tad warning. Fos' years doctors an.d parents have been
repeatedly warned that they must obey the law regarding notification and
registration of births. Some few of the doctors say they
BIRTH should be paid for this service. In the opinion of the
REGISTRASr4ON waiter they should NOT bepaid for doing what is s.
plain duty, and for obeying the law. Any physician who
does not think enough of his patient to register the birth of her baby does
not deserve to have the baby's mother for a patient any longer. The Gov-
ernment demands that physicians shall forthwith notify the Division Re-
gistrar of the birth of a baby at which they attend. The Division Regietrar
will provide post -camel forms for this purpose. These are carried post free.
The neglect of the doctor does not relieve the parent or householder where
the birth oceiris. They too are supplied with post-free cards for this pur-
pose. It is the ditty of the Division Registrar if these returns are not
promptly made to b3en to get after both parents and doctors and obtain the
information, It it i.5 not supplied to him promptly be should notify the,
Registrar General, giving the names and dates, The Department will do
the rest.
