It is now said that a few drops of a drug called freeone applied directly upon a tender, aching corn relieves the soreness, and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted out without pain. For little cost a quarter of an ounce of freezone can be obtained from any drug store, which iR claimed to be sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callous from one's feet. This is a drug recently announced from Cincinnati. It is gummy but dries the moment it is applied and simply shrivels up the corn without inflaming or even irritating the healthy tissue or skin.

Killed by Poisons All scientists agree that poisonous products in the blood are eliminated by the kidneys. The kidneys act as a kind of filter lor these products. When th kidneys are changed or degenerated, by disease or old age, t hen these poisons are retained in the body. If we wish ta pre vent old age coming on too soon, or if wa want to increase our chances for a long life, Dr. Pierce of the Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., says that you should drink plenty of water daily between meals and with your meals to flush the kidneys. Then procure at your nearest drug store Anuric. This Anuric drives the uric acid out. If we wish to keep our kidneys in tha best condition a diet of milk and vege tables, with only little meat once a day, is the most suitable. Drink plenty of pure water, take Anuric three times a day for a month. Anuria is many times more potent than lithia and dissolves urio acid as hot water does sugar. MICHIGAN TO USE $5,000,000.
