Why You Should

Never Pare a Corn.

If you are troubled with corns or calluses, do not run the risk of blood poison by paring- them. Statistics show that many deaths have occurred from this seemingly innocent practice of paring corns. Simply go to your druggist and got a few cents worth of Ice-Mint, rub a little on any painful corn or callus. Immediately the pain will disappear and ir a short time the corn or callus will loosen and lift off easily with the lingers root and all leaving the surrounding skin in a healthy, normal condition. This, together with the fact that IceMint overcomes such affections as sore, tirtd. aching, puffed or burning feet and makes them cool, easy and comfortable, is probably responsible for the hearty

endorsement given it by druggists. To rid one's feet of .every hard corn, j soft corn, corn between the toes or paln-

iui caiiuses in sucn a pleasant ana srie way, makes it seem tho heighth of folly for anyone to pare a corn, and people are warned to stop it. Adv.

The kids around State Line street anu riummer avenue are having a circus and the grown-ups are takin' it In. Master Freddie Kolb, son of Hammond City Clerk Kolb, is the manager, and his brother Billy, and John Kreiger, John Kolling, Vernon North and Pete Berelos are on the executive board. The management announced last night

to a packed house that all proceeds would be given over to the Red Cross. "It's our bit," Master Freddie said. And the most surprising thing of it all is, that it'9 a real carnival. Rice Bros, has nothing "on the neighborhood gang's" carnival, which for a name they have dubbed "The State Line Carnival." Championship Boats. The big show opened Monday night with great success. Elaborate preparations have been made by the boys. The show ground is Just around the corner from Plummer avenue -on the State line. The main show is where the championship bouts are pulled off. There the most rugged fight and wrestle for the pin-weight belt. The admission to this show is five cents. One man last night declared five cents was far too small a sum for so good a show and donated' twenty-five cents more to the treasurer. Another delighted spectator forked over fifteen more cents. All vouched that the boys put up "some scraps." Outside the main ring one finds the usual carnival outlay. There are the "can you ring, the can you get" stands, wheel of fortune, "red hot" and pink lemonade

stands and everything that makes a first class circus.

And regular prizes are given. T

"red hots" are real "dogs," and not the half-baked. Indigestible kind you find at other carnivals. Most of the food and prizes are donated by the parents of the lads. Last night the boys took in ov4fr $3. The show lasts all this week, the boys expect to turn over to the Red Cross society quite a sum at the end of the festivities.
