How to take corns OUT, not merely off, without | plasters, dangerous cutting or 1 , caustic liquids. Also stops the j acid perspiration, which ruins i shoes and causes soreness, etc., j says C. S. Turner, of the Army Medical Corps. Perhaps you have invited blood j poison by hacking the top off that corn with a razor, or burnt it off ' with caustic pastes, liquids or plas- i ters. soaked it in hot water, picked 1 dubiously at it with your fingernails i and sprinkled it with various pow- ! ders to stop the aching. After doing all this and waiting a while for re- j suits, you either find that most of j the corn has stayed right on the job or else a brand new top has sprouted up to replace the old one and the ache is still doing business at the old \ stand, worse than ever, and plus considerable extra soreness of raw skin around the corn. This is be- •' cause you have only worried and ir- ; ritated the top of the corn without at all affecting the little pointed part | or core, which is the real business! end that causes all the pain by press- I ing on sensitive nerves, it would be | as logical to cut the top off an ach- ' ing tooth to stop the pain. It is only • alter aA these time-wasting experi- j ments with a corn, unpleasant as they are, that you are really ready j to appreciate the marvelous way | Kodell medicated water acts and how j totally different it is front anything else, it soon dissolves out the oil I from dead, hardened, calloused and ! "corny" skin, leaving it soft and' "mushy" as fresh putty, so that | corns can easily be picked right out, ! root and all; whereas callouses turn! white, curl up at edges and come i clean off with one scrape with the j dull edge of g knife. Sound, healthy skin Is not affected in any way by ; the water, except that it is wonder- j lully refreshing to sore, tired, tender, i aching teet. To prepare the tnedi-! cated water, which is also oxygenat ed, Invest a few cents in a quarter- ' pound of the refined Kodell com-1 pound, this being a standard prep-1 aration, often prescribed by physi-1 clans and kept in stock by most i druggists. Locally, Keller's Drug ; Store, G. A. Gorgas. Clark's Medi-t cal Co., H. C. Kennedy, would always 1 have it on hand. Use about a table-1 spoonful to a gallon of rather hot i water and rest the feet in this, but j first bid all your foot misery a iinal | farewell, for such tortures will soon ' be only unpleasant memories of the j past.

SEEKS TO OUST LOCAL MERCHANT [Continue*? from First Pago.] should not enter a defense to the judgment against them. Check Not Cashed It was stated in the petition to the court that the Holman-Haeseler Company received a notice a few weeks ago from the Bergner estate, announcing that the entire building had been taken over by the New York Company and that in the fu ture'payments of rent according to terms of leases should be made to the Schulte ttrm. November 2 the Holman-Haeseler Company sent a. check for $175 to the Schulte Company. No receipt was returned and as yet the con celled check has not been sent back through the bunks. Sheriff Askc Bond A few days later judgment was entered against the local firm for not complying with the terms of the lease, and a writ of possession was issued to be put into effect by the sheriff. At the sheriff's office at torneys for the New York firm were notified that the writ would not be served and the store closed ss the sheriff was given an ind ing bond of $15,000 by the . >te firm. The lawyers then loin the sheriff not to serve the wit and take the premises until they con sulted their client. Pay Second Time , • At the same time the sheriff was paid by attorneys for the Harris burg store the rent for November und all costs—making the second payment of the rent for this month. Even with this money in the hands of the sheriff the New York store refused to satisfy the judgment which had been entered. It was also brought out that the Schulte Company through its agents notified the local store that the judgment would be satisfied und the writ stopped if the five-year option clause in the lease was waived. This the Holman-Haeseler Company re fused to do and notified the attor neys that a petition would be pre sented to court asking that the writ should be stayed unless the 'judg ment was satisfied this morning. The Court Intervenes Judge Kunkel us soon as these farts were laid before him imme ■diutely ordered the proceedings to get possession of the premises stay ed and now lawyers for the Schulte tirni have ten days to lile an answer to shqw why the Hurrisburg busi nessmen should not be permitted to enter a defense and settle the action in court. Othr businessmen in the city were highly indignant when they learn ed of the procedure and the methods used by the New York firm against the local store which has been es tablished at 228 Market street for about four years. Some' of them declared that it was being done to get possession of the storeroom so that the Schulte Company could | open u cigar stou' there in compe tition to George w. Kochenour. who has a stand at Third and Market streets, in the JLcrgner building, and whose lease runs for more than three ' yearn. George F. L.umb, as attorney for Hoinmn-Haeseler Company, present ed the petition to-day. It was mat ed in legul circles that only on one or two occasions in recent years, have similar writs of possession been issued. The lease held by the Holman store ends March 31, next year, but carried a clause which will permit him to retain the premises for an additional live years under a new lease.
