'I'll" German attack was made with I reatly sup rior numbers and every uviiilal.de iimn was needed on the, Itritlsh side to arrest Its onward sweep.

Shells suddenly began to fall about Mm engineers and almost Immediately they saw horde of t'lev coats 'harming toward them. The driver of the engine there was no time to linger nnd ran for nearby shell lif.le. His four helpers sought similar shelter and they reached cover before they were seen by the Germans, although one of the crew was wounded slightly by a shell splinter.

A bnsK, lively step is what charms more" than a lovely skin, but your h'gh neeis uve 'caused corns and you limp a little. Thut's bad, girls, and you know It. Corns destroy beauty and grace, besides corns are very easy to remu Rid your Pet of every corn by asking at the drug store for a quarter of an ounce of This wilt cost little but Is sufficient to rcmovf every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. A few drops applied directly upon a tender, achy corn relieves the sore-j ness and soon the entire corn, root nnd all, lifts right out without pain Th's freezone is a viumniy sun-stance which dries Instantly and simply shrivels up the corn without Inflaming or even irritating "Ihe surrounding skin.

Physicians Iho world over recommend the Inside bath, claiming this is of vastly more Importance than outside Jcanliness, becuuso the skin pores do not absorb Impurities Into the blood, causing lit health, while tho pores In the ten yards of bowels do. Men and women nre urged to drink each morning, before breakfast a glass of hot water with a tenspoonful of limestone phosphate in it, as a harmless means of helping to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous day's Indigestible material, poisons, sour bllo and toxins; thus cleansing, sweetening and puriflying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food.

Those who wake up with bad' breath, coated tongue, nasty tante or have a dull, aching head, sallow com- plexlon, acid stomach; others who I are subject to bilious attacks or con- 1 stlpaMon, should ytrtitaln a quarter pound of lfmestone phosphate nt the drug store. This will cost very little but is sufficient to demonstrate the value of Inside bathlnit.
