ABANDONMENT A CRIME. Will Be If Assemblyman Heber Wheeler Has His Way. Oanandaigua, Jan. 11. Assemblyman Heber E.

Wheeler will probably introduce into the Legislature at its present session a bill designed to amend the present penal law of this state in regard to the abandonment of wives by husbands. It is at present an indictable offense for a man to abandon minor children but he may abandon a wife where there are no minor children without much danger of becoming entangled in the meshes of the criminal law. It is proposed to so amend the law that any man who is guilty of abandoning his wife even" though there may be no children dependent upon him, may be adjudged guilty of a crime and punished accordingly. Iistrict-Attorney Nathan D. Lapbam, of this county, has requested such an amendment to be framed.

Monday, February 5th. DESERVES GOLD riEDALFoa Tins Cincinnati authority tells how to dry up a corn so it lifts out. You corn-pestered men and women need suffer no longer. 'Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because a few drops of freesone applied directly on a tender, aching corn stops soreness at once and soon the corn loosens so it can be lifted out, root and all, without pain. A quarter of an ounce of free zone costs very little at any drug store, but is sufficient to take off every hard or soft corn or callus.

This should be tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not to inflame or even irritate the surrounding tissue or skin. IL- Special Meeting of Trustees. Dtnsvllle, Jan. 11. A special meeting iU be held to-morrow evening by the vil-hge trustees st which Important business Ul be transacted.
