• Says it is suicide to cut corns j
and tells how they lift
i right out. i
. ?
Ton simply'say to the drug store
man, "Give me a quarter of an ounce
of freezone." This will cost very little
but is sufficient to remove every hard
or soft corn from one's feet.
A few drops applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn should re
lieve the soreness instantly, and soon
the entire corn, root and all, can
be lifted out with the lingers with
out pain.
This new drug called freezone is
nn ether compound discovered by a
Cincinnati man, who says that while
I'reezone is sticky it dries in a
moment, and simply shrivels up the
corn without inflaming or even irri
tating the surrounding tissue or
.skin.
Don't let father die of infection
or lockjaw from whittling at his
corns, but cut this out and make him
.try it.

FORCE OF DRIVE
ON THE WANE,
EXPERTS SAY
British Obey Call of Field
Marshal Stand
as Wall
WimhinKtpii, April lfl.—Hope that
the force of the German stroke to
ward the Channel ports has largely
spent itself grew here yesterday as
the British lines stood fast under re
peated shocks. The day's advices in
dicated again . that Field Marshal
Haig's men were obeying to the let
ter his call for unyielding resistance.
The weekly review published by
the War Department, although it car
ried operations only up to last Sat
urday, showed that War College
opinion saw, then Indications that the
German wave was reaching its crest.
In Allied diplomatic and military cir
cles the same impression prevailed
yesterday, strengthened by more re
cent reports from the front.
Dispatches indicate that the fiercest
fighting is on the northern line of
the new salient driven into the Brit
ish front north of Arras. The
struggle for possession of Nouve
Eglise and towns in that region
looks to observers here like an ef
fort by the enemy to force a way
behind Ypres and the consequent
abandonment of that place and a
withdrawal of a large section of the
British line.
The Germans were in possession of
Ncuve Eglise by last accounts, but
they had previously captured it, only
to be driven out again. The situa
tion bad not stabilized on this par
ticular front further than to show
that the enemy is meeting with stub
born resistance to his effort to widen
his lighting front to the north.
Time Helps Allien
Kvei:,v hour gained by the British
in holding this ground means in
creased probability that they will
hold it permanently. Time allows the
assembling of supporting forces in
sufficient strength to meet any
shock. Or should a withdrawal and
realignment on better positions be
judged desirable, time will give op
portunity for the preparation of these
positions.
II is possible that the plans of
General Foch, commander-in-chief of
Ihe Allied and American armies in
France, hinge upon developments in
this narrow sector of the broad bat
tlefront. Such moves as he may be
ec ntemplating may well depend, it is
said, upon the stabilization of the
Allied left flank. On the right the
French appear to have succeeded in
effecting such a stabilization. Pre
sumably any plans for .a counter
< ffensive would be dependent upon
> these two positions,
j There is no question that many of
; fleers here view the situation as se
! rious. They do not all share the
hopeful outlook indicated by the War
! College review for last week. Even
I if the present, thrust toward Bethune
; is checked, they believe a third as
' stiult at other portion of the
British frot is to be expected, com
| ing with the suddenness of a storm
j from a clear sky.
Kxpect llrlve by Auxtrla
I There have been many reports in
' diciiting that the Austro-Hungarian
| forces were preparing for a drive |
I against the Italians. When it will 1
|be started cannot be foretold, but I
I some observers think that in case of j
I a detinita check to the German move
ment the Austrians would launch !
their effort."
In that case the scene of opera
j tions on the west front might shift 1
far to the south to the area where
I American troops are on the front.
I The railway function through which
1 French or British forces sent to
| Italy naturally would pass lies be- 1
I hind that sector. It is believed pos- |
I siblo that the Germans might throw 1
] their weight in that direction in an |
I effort to prevent any support reach- |
I ing Italy.
