The trouble about the water fron; the big tank is that it is pumped up out of the lake and is not clean, having been condemned by members of the board of health on various oc- c casions as not being fit to even wash in let alone drinking purposes. The water supplied by the ram at the ( county jail comes from an artesian well and is regarded as being as pure as any water in this section can be. \, It is stated that when the Towh of ConWay completes its sewer and water works plant by means of the * bonds now being issued, that then the supply of water from this new source will be as good as any and ^ will cost less than it does to pump it | new with the ram. 0 Prominent people are showing * great interest in the night school now * in contemplation and it goes without 3 saying that the institution will be a success.

LIFT YOUR CORNS OFF WITH FINGERS Tells how to loosen a tender corn or callus so it lifts out without pain. You reckless men and women who are pestered with corns and who have at least once a week invited an awful death from lockjaw 01* blood poison are now told by a Cincinnati authority to use a drug called freezone, which the moment a few drops are applied to any com or callus the sore noss is relieved and soon the entire ;orn or callus, mot and all, lifts oft *ith the finders. Freezone dries the moment it is applied, and simply shrivels the com >r callus without inflaming or even rritating the surrounding tissue or diin. A small bottle of freezone will :ost very little at any of the drug ?tores, but will positively rid one*9 feet of every hard or soft corn or lardened callus. If your druggist wasn't any freezone he can get it at any wholesale drug house for you.? adv.
