Bar- bour, has sent the following letter to the National Surgical Dressings Com- mittee of America. “It is with the greatest pleasure that the American Relief Clearing House bears testimony to the value and efficiency of the work done by your committee. From small begin- nings the work of this organization quickly increased until now it is mak- ing regular contributions to 1,000 hos- pitals. “It would be an excellent thing if most of the surgical dressings con- tributed by the United States should come through the National Surgical Dressings Committee, for this commit- tee has the best patterns and the best Information of the exact needs in this special line of work which is proved by the fact that 1,000 hospitals are demanding and being supplied with . dressings by this committee.” The Countess of Leicester, pres- ident of the Norfolk Branch (Eng-® land) of the Red Cross, says: “I write to thank you so very much for vour very kind thought of our Norfolk Hospitals, and please also convey my most grateful thanks to those who have so very generously contributed to help our poor wound- ed soldiers.” Soldiers Are Grateful. From the Military Hospital No. 35 —at St. Joseph-du-Ha-Madame Bibot writes: “I want to express my most earnest gratitude for the generous gift you have sent us. “The wounded men in French hos- < pitals (and that includes practically all the nationalities at war) are filled with gratitude and with admiration for the charity and the generosi great and unwearying—which i shown by people in the United States.

Tt is now said that a few drops of a drug called freezone applied directly upon a tender aching corn relieves the soreness and soon the entire corn, root and all, can be lifted out without pain. For little cost a quarter of an ounce of freezone can be obtained from any drug store which is claimed to be suf- ficient to remove every nard or soft corn or callous from one's feet. .This is a drug recently announced from Cincinnati. It is gummy but dries the moment it is applied and simply shrivels up the eorn without inflaming or even irritating the healthy tissue or skin.

GET RAISE | Council Votes Increased Salaries to Officers and Men Members of the New and police department last evening were given salary Increases by the common council, while the men them- selves were in the streets more than earning it.. With the increases voted the pay of the fire department will be as follows: Chief, $1,800; Britain fire istant chief, $600; I ment first year firemen, second year men, $2.90 per and third vear men, $3.15 per day.

The original motion was to increase the chief's pay to $1.900. but Council- man Landers and Mueller argued for $2,000 as they thought the job was worth it. Councilman Dehm opposed the $2,000 figure as the safety board had not recommended it and Coun- cilman McDonough also thought it best to accept the figures submitted by this board. On a vote Counciliian Lande amendment was passed, those voting for the raise being An- derson, . Chamberlain, Gould, May, Steiner, Curtis, Mueller, Wall, An- drews, Arata, Richards, McCabe and Landers.

The mayor set forth his rea- sons as follows: “My reason for dis- approving is in the interests of econ- omy. In view of the high cost. of labor I do not believw 1t snould be the policy of the city to engage in work which may be done later at a consid- erable saving. The veto was sus- tained. The city hall commission reported its approval, in conjun on with that of the committee on printing and sup- plies, of the resolution of the Southern New England Telephone company asking permission to place a pay st tion and telephone booth in city hall | where the city hall commission shall | designate.
