Beware! beware! for 1 come in my
might,
With a scream and a howl of worn,
With a speed like the mountain eagle's
flight,
As he rides the breeze of -morn.
Avaunt! avatint- for I heed you not,
With- my belching power of steam,
The battering rain to me is naught, .
In the blizzard I have been!.
I speed through the .cities' busy streets
Where the thronging crowds are
found,
And they fly at the sound of my iron
feet,
Like the hare front the baying hound.
Away, away, oft valley and plain,
T sweep with a voice of wrath,
In a fleecy cloud .I wrap my train
lie I tread my iron path.
My bowels are fire and my aunt is
steel,
My breath is a rolling cloud,
My voice reals out as 1 onward wheel
`y Like the, thunder rolling ;loud.

He says that a few drops of a drug
called freezone, applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn, , instantly re-
lieves .so ness, and .soon the entire
corn, rooand all, lifts right out.
This drug is a sticky ether compound,
but dries at once - and simply shrivels
up the corn Without inflaming or even
irritating the surrounding tissue..
It is claimed that a _ 9uartar of an
Ounce of f reezione obtained at any drug
store will cost very, li le but
suffi-
cient to remove every aor soft corn
or callas from ene'sefeet. Cut this out,
especially if you are a woman reader
who wears high heels. -
