Ah, how cool, easy and comfortable it makes them feel. In stantly corns and painful callouses .stop hurting and you will want to dance for joy. No foolishness. Ice mint will shrivel up any corn whether hard, soft or between the toes so that it can be lifted out easily with the lingers. There is no pain and not one bit of soreness when applying ice-mint or afterwards and It doesn't even ir ritate the surrounding skin. Try it. Just ask in any drug store for a little ice-mint and end your foot troubles for good. It costs little and acts so quickly and gently it seems like magic. You'll say so yourself.—Ad vertisement. 3-Grain Tablet Makes Flesh.

TO GO INTO COAL BUSINESS Is Succeeded Acre as Division Publicity Manager by J. li Taft, of Philadelphia ■ |. Hp kRB WILLIAM 11. HOWARD Bell Telephone Company men In Harrisburg learned with regret to day of the resignation of W. H. How ard, division publicity manager, who ' will return to his home town of Bethlehem to manage the large re-] tail coal business of the F. G. King I Coal Company, of which eventually] he will have a partnership. The j business opportunity offered was so 1 unusual that Mr. Howard felt com pelled to sever his long connection with the Bell Company. He was first employed by the Bell as cashier of the Reading district in April, 1907, and was promoted to be Bethlehem local manager in.July of that year. From that position he was advanced to division publicity manager in August 1914, which position he has since held with headquarters in Har risburg and residence at Camp Hill. MARRIED AT CHICAGO Blain, Pa.. May 2.—Benjamin Har rison Kell, son of Amos Kell, of Sa ville, this county, who graduated re cently at the MeCormiek Theological | Seminary, at Chicago, 111., was mar- ' ried on Thursday to Miss Harriet Mildred Drew, of Illinois, in the! Fourth Presbyterian Church, at Chi- ' cago. ' The Rev. Mr. Kell has been elected pastor of the Presbyterian charge at Good Hope, 111., and as- j sumed charge on May 1. Catarrhal Deafness May Be Overcome ! A simple, safe and reliable way that calls for no ugly trum- . pets, phones or other instruments. To be deaf is very annoying and embarrassing. People who are deaf are generally mighty sensitive on this subject. And yet many deaf folks carry around instruments that call at tention to their infirmity. Therefore people who are hard of hearing, who suffer from head noises, or who are actually deaf from catarrhal trouble, will be glad to know of a simple recipe that can be easily made up at home for a few cents' cost that is really quite efficient in relieving the disagreeable deafness * and head noises caused by catarrh. From any drug store get one ounce of Parmint (double strength) about 75c worth. Take this home and put it into a simple syrup made of pint of hot water and four ounces of I ordinary granulated sugar. Take a tablespoonful four times a day. This treatment should by tonic ac tion reduce the inflammation in the middle ear that a catarrhal condition would be likely to cause and with the inflammation gone the distressing head noises, headaches, cloudy think ing and that dull feeling in the ears should gradually disappear. Anyone who suffers from catarrh, catarrhal deafness or head noises should give Parmint a trial. It is pleasant to take and is quite inexpensive.—Advertise ment. ' ■ mm J. B. TAFT I His resignation becomes effective on May 15. Mr. Howard will be succeeded here i by J. It. Taft. now connected with the publicity department of the Bell I Telephone Company in Philadelphia, j Mr. Taft is married and now resides iin West Philadelphia. He comes j from Cambridge, Mass., and was j educated at a military academy in Boston, Phillips Exeter Academy, Exeter, N. H., and at the University of Pennsylvania where ho pursued the newspaper and arts course for two years. He has had newspaper ex perience with Frank A. Munsey and Company in Philadelphia; witli (he old Evening Times, of Philadelphia: the New York Press, as editorial and advertising man, and with the News paper Service Bureau, of Boston. He entered the employ of the Bell in 1915. Get Out and Hoe Garden Says Herrick Cleveland, May 2.—The country ' would be safeguarded against de- I liciency of foodstuffs if every able bodied man and woman in and around villages, towns and cities -•should rultivate al! the available ! vacant plots, according to Myron T. ! Herrick, member of the National Emergency Food Garden Commis sion. He declares that the produc tion of food from this source would | assure abundance of food for all our i needs. "It is the duty of all to get busy," he said to-day. If you cannot go to the front, get out in the backyard and hoe." Aside from the patriotic side to | this work, Mr. Herrick explained the ; good returns that can be realized by the planter on this kind of invest ! ment. , j One of the most wonderful suc | cesses through the cultivation of small plots mentioned by Mr. Her- i rick was the case of John S. Ware, I of Bridgeton, N. J., who produced 1 more than $2,100 worth of vege tables on one and one-eighth acres of ground, not counting what was used by his family. Bridgeton !s less than one-half day by freight from New York City. If all the farm land and vacant city lots within that distance of the metropolis were cultivated. New York would have foodstuffs produced practically at its very doors in suf ficient quantity not only for the needs of its millions, but also with I a surplus to send to the hard-pressed people across the Atlantic, accord ing to Mr. Herrick. Mr. Ware's example has ben fol lowed by others in Bridgeton until the town has become the center of a veritable garden spot. This outdoor life, besides being profitable, brings ! health and longevity. Mr. Herrick suggests that one- j fourth of a.n acre would be the! proper amount of land to cultivate | for a man who has office hours to j keep.

Carson Resigns as Head of the British Navy Hy Associated Press l..ondon, May 2. Rumors of im pending cJiuiifjes in tne admiralty continue current, one of them point ing to the* early resignation of . c 'ir Edward Carson. The Times claims to have authority to state that there is not the slightest difference between Sir Edward Carson and his col leagues, either regarding the naval policy or any other issue, but adds; "if Sir Edward Carson should de sire to leave the admiralty, which is likely enough, it would bo for entire ly different reasons. He is being at tacked on many sides for various mo tives and, although nobody is more hardened to criticism, he may con ceivably feel that the work of the navy is prejudiced by his proml- nence in controversies with which sailors are not concerned." (The latter expression is accepted as an allusion to the Irish.) MIS.
