[lured Bain Stomach Truuhla . and Headaches

Panuxtasron, ONT., JUN: aoth. 1913.

“I really believe that I owe my life

to “Fruit-a-tives". Ever since child- hood, I have been under the care of physicians and have been paying doctor‘s bills. I was so sick and worn out that people on the street often asked mc if I thought l could get along without help. The same old Stomach Trouble and distressing Headaches nearly drove me wild. Sometime ago, I got s box of “Fruit- s-tives” and the first box did me good. My husband was delighted and advi-

sed n continuation of their use.

Today, I am feeling fine, and I

physician meeting me on the street, noticed my improved appearance and asked the reason. Ireplied, “I ani _ taking Fruit-a-tives". Hesaid, "Well, if Fruit-a-tives are making yon look so well, go ahead and take them. They

are doing more for you than I can".

MRS. H. S. WILLIAMS.

dealers at 5oc. a box. 6 for $2.50, trial size 25c. or sent postpaid on receipt of price by Fruit-4-tives Limited, Ottawa

TO CURE THAT CORN i

A Safe and Simple Home Treatment.

(By Charles ll. Lerrigo, M. D.)

I have just read u hook of over a

thousand large pages; all about corns. And ut that it treats of only one var- iety--the corns for which you have at all times so tcndcr u concern and of which you are so 1-specially consider- uti- whcn u clnnigc oi' weather is in prospect.

'l‘hat is ont- nf tin- things discussed

But. uftcr all, lit- tlc that is new is said, and it leaves u ti corn a corn in spitc ol` its eilorts to fnstcn upon il u nunic which, ai least to thc ear, seems to possess sonic vague propriety-“heloma."

lt is nothing new to tcll us that a

corn is Natures att:-nlpl at protection against. irritation of thc skin. I say tin- skin ruihcr than the foot because it is u mistake to suppose that corns are thus liniitt-d_ Some persons have them on their hands and u pat- ient came recently claiming 'the unique distinction of ri corn on his scalp. though investigation showed ii to be u wen. -

Ono thing is certain. a corn is nl-

WHYS lite outcome of rubbing und cha- fing. This thcory serves to dispel the tcncliilul, of the old fashioned corn doctor that a corn is yet anotlier of thc mysterious dispcnsations of Pro- vitleucc, that it grows from roots, and that when hc “gets the root," und the-u only. is it ull over.

WHY A CORN HURTS

As a matter of fact at corn has no

root. llowevcr. ii inay fuirly bf- said to have at nnclcils or corc. This is composcd of thc siitvcessivv layers of skin which go into its rutt|»:int:. You urv inclined io think of your skin as it single slicct ol' protecting cnvclopt-. but rcally it is made up of many lay- ers. 'i`hcro is the cpidcrniis or top laycr. This has four subdivisions. Just br-low comcs thc coriurn. or truc skin, which is sululividcd into two lu_\'- r-rs and contains blood vt-sscls, nerves Hilti glands. iii-low this is the sub- :-utuucous iissuc, which contains hair folliclcs and swf-at glands. und has muscles of bnlh the voluntary and in- volinilury kind.

Rather odd to think of the skin hav-

ing nntsclt-s. but it is tln-ir involun- tary contraction :ii -.1 chill that omutcs the act of shivering, and it is thc cou~ traction of the hair musclcs \vhil'h in- duces the hair to stand on ond ut an appropriate thrill.

Knowing now of thcsc various lay-

ers of the skin, _vou will more rciulily understand thc formation of it corn and thc method oi' its curc. ’l‘hv first irritation canst-s thc top luycr of opi- dermis to beconn-. tliickcncd in :in.ul- tempt at protcction. Continued irri- tation will I.-xtcinl this thiclrf-ning: suc- cessively ilirough the low:-r hiyc-|-s, und it is wha-n it rout.-lics down to thc delicate layer involving blood vesscls 'and sensitive ne-rvcs that thc burning and shooting pain so cliui'uct.i~i'istic of thc formation is induced. l<l_v this Iiiuc you havc u kuol nf hard. iii.-:iso ti.~asu<» boring into at niosl tlclicutl- uct- worl-. of |n»=rv»-s, uvcry grudc nt’ pros- .=‘»||r1-. from abovc lu-fiuz iransniiitvtl through this iulcrni<~diuto corc.

Tin- necessity for removal of prcs-

surc is upparcnl to uuyonc giving philosophical consitlertitiou to the cou- dilious, and thc sufferer <‘on\prelientls it entircly apart from considerations of philosophy.

An eminent surgeon who ohscrvcd

how invariably thc corns of his frac- turo cases nunlc spontaur-ons cur:-s has suggcsied that thc licst absoluli- cure for corn is to brcak 0 lr-sr.

OTTA WA, June 4.-Canada's honor

roll is growing. it is nearing the eight thousand mark. and from pres- ent indications may mount to ten thousand.

\'estcrday's and overnight figures

from the front are among the heaviest i-4-ci-iw-ti since the battle of Langc- inarck. Severe losses in all divisions ard rt-corded, and the customary toll of dcad, wounded and missing is now be-ing added to by daily lists oi' pris- oners of war in Germany. The news whlli- not the most satisfactory, docs much to relicvt- the strain upon rela- tions and friends of ofhccrs who here- toforl- hurl bt-on reported as siniply missing.

The total oflicialiy reported ill 125

casualty lists is 7.450. Of this inun- bcr, 1,119 werc killed or died of their wounds; 4,083 are wounded and 1,525 missing. l'uder the last mcntloncd heading arc the prisoners, forty of whom were reported yesterday.

ers of horny tissue thereby giving some relief from pressure.

Vnforttmutely they are very st_%ld0In

able to fulfill the splendid promise Of the advertising matter whifrh B0 cheerfully proclaims their virtues. and frequently they create an uncer- atcd condition worse than the corn. For home treatment oi' corns the safe trcutmt-ni ls always slow, but may be none the less surc.

'l`he lirst essential is the absolute

rcmovnl of all pressure. if this en- tails the purchase of new shoes you may consider ii a part oi’ the pres- cription and take your medicine cheerfully. The next step is to dis- pose of the corn. Almost all corn cradicators have as their base sull- cylic acid, which possesses the pro- pcrty of softening the horny cells and causes them to separate without in- linnimution.

l-‘or hornc application the safest pre-

parutiou is one which any drugglsi will rcadily compound, consisting of thirty grains of salicylic acid and ten grains of extract of cannabis intlicn combined with one ounce of collodion. This is applied at night, and scraped oft' the ncxt morning or thc following night, and if used persistently will soon dispose ol’ the ordinarily* hard corn. lt should be used with cure, and any sign of irritation is an ludi- ciuion to suspcnd treatment.

ONE WORD OF CAUTION

Soft corns are generally found be-

iwccn the toes, hidden yet by no mt-,ans obscure. Soaking the feet in hot water containing bicarbonate of soda is good l'or these. Then dry thc fm-t 1--.u'vt`ull_v, rcmove the dead tissue but do not try to apply anything caustic, as in that location it muy easily lead to ulceration. Place n corn pad of felt or wool iu Buch a way as to kccp tho toes from rubbing and to rclit-vo pressure, und use borated talcum as ii dusting powder.

ln paving horns any instrument'

,uscd should be sterile. The corn should ucvcr bc cut to the point of blccding. it is wcll lo rt-menibt-r that in old pcoplc this simplc opvra- tion has cuuscd scnili- gungrcnc.

Wh(-n corns or bunions have reach-

cd thc point of ul<'¢~ralion and pus for- mation. they must bf- fronted just as any othcr such cnsc. The pus may hc rclicved hy hot poulliccs. The foot may be soaked in hot waicr and tht-n wrapped in cloths soaked in ai soothing mixture coiuposcd of equal parts of llnsccd oil and limo water with a drum of spirits of cnmphor uddcd to it four ouncc solution,-l<`arn1 :uid l"iri\sitlc_

SET A BROKEN LEG Wi-(ILE SHIP TOSSED.

LONDON, Juno 7.-A surigcou of

u British battleship in thc North Sea has written of one night`s cxpericucc :\,l.~c/ard ship during n gale in which n scuman received n broken leg.

A 21-foot torpedo. cvitlenily with-

The scaman whose leg was br0i%

“With the aid of u small packing

"and with n handkerchief and the hakcr‘s apron. wc made some temporary splints and bandages and fixed the patient. on top of one of the dough- mlxlng troughs, with a heavy sack of flour on one side of him to prevent him rolling to port, a bulkhead br-ing on his other side; and so we made him as comfortable as, circumstances would allow. During this time the ship was plunging and lurchlng from side to side, with all sorts of cork- screw movements and rolling from 25 to 40 degrees. There was quite a ton nf water in the little compartment rushing about wildly and adding to the general uproar of the storm so that it only by shouting that we could "one another heard,
