THE STILL ALARM —\, All those fee had Corns Watch the feet that now trip lightly. All of them had corns. But the owners learned of Blue-jay. They applied it in a minute. There was no more pain. The corn was forgotten. And in two days the corn came out. _ Soon or late you will treat your corns in that way. You will stop the paring, stop the old-time treatments, You will deal with corns in a scientific way. You will take them out, with no soreness, no pain, no inconvenience, Nearly half the corns in the country are now ended by Blue-jay—a million corns a month. Why wait? Other ways, as you well know, don’t really end a corn. Why don’t you try this easy, painless, most effective way? Why don’t you try it now? e Blue-jay For Corns 15 and 25 cents—at Druggists Bauer & Black, Chicago and New York Makers of Physicians’ Supplies | America’s natural winter re- | sorls— replete with open-air | pleasures, sports, and social entertainments are along the Southern Railway— Premier Carrier of the South Open Winter, Delightful Climate, Out- door Life, Golfing, Tennis, Riding, Motor- ing.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY OFFICES we, New York ‘Washington St., Boston, Retnoe 5 GPUS DAN WAN (er Gainniey ofatineeSlojuitihy Alabama's Press Agent LABAMA'S press agent has been at work, and, as a result, we read how wonderfully Alabama is getting along as a mineral producer, it being the second among the Southern States, surpassed by West Virginia alone. We are delighted to hear it. Not that producing minerals is the most impor- tant thing on earth. That isn’t the point at all. The point is that Alabama is developing a pride in herself and wants to put forth any claims to atten- tion she may have. That is laudable. Of course, it looks as if this press agent were hired by the Board of Trade, and Boards of Trade are noted for putting the accent on the wrong syllable of that important word, devel- opment. But it is a beginning. Just as in the case of a man who wants to improve his appearance, a more striking cravat calls for a little better hat, and thus throughout the entire sartorial gamut, so Alabama is likely to go on developing one boast-basis after another until some day, instead of bringing up an ignominious rear in education and child labor as at present, she will be calling from the housetops : “Lookce here! See what fine schools I have! See what beautiful, healthy children! Second to none south of Mason and Dixon's line!” And so on. It's bound to come We wish we were as sure of heaven.
