THE WORLD'S a rumrugmg POLISH - THE MAGIC FLUID Few drops and corns or calluges loosen and lift off with fingers. No pain! poLISHI MOPm . The world owes thanks to the gen- fus in Cincinnati who discovered free- sone, the new ether drug. 7 Tiny bottle of the ma- glc fluid can now be had at any drug store for a few cents. You simply apply a few drops of this freezone upon a tender, aching corn or a harden- ed callous, instantly the soreness disappears and shortly you will find the corn or callous so loose and shriveled that you 1lift it off with the fingers. Not a bit of pain or sore- ness is felt when apply- > ing freezone or after- wards. It doesn’t even irritate ' the skin or flesh. For a few cents one can now get rid of every hard corn, soft corn, or corn between the toes, as well as painful callouses on bottom of feet. Everyone who tries freezone becomes an enthusiast bécause it really doesn’t hurt or pain one particle. Genuine i freezone has a yellow label. Look for yellow label.

N, ENSR'S HALL ‘With the return of warm weather interest in the new Shuttle Meadow club situated on the southwestern out- skirts of the city is rapidly reviving. Many an enthusiastic golfer is re- garding his mashie and brassie with a critical eye and rubbing his palm in anticipation of the feel of shots “well” off. The greens committee of the new club has given a tentative promise that the course will be ready to be played over in the course of not more than two months. The work of last summer and fall is bearing fruit and the fairways and putting greens aro in fine condition considering the time of year and the length of their plant- ing. The club house too is well along toward completion and before the summer is through the city is assured of one of the best courses and clubs in New England. The Herald presents the first lay- out of the grounds that has been pub- lished- The length of the course |is 5,833 yards or over 3.3 miles from tee to green. The third hole is the longest, measuring 6548 yards. - The bridle path as laid out, is repregented by a dotted line and covers over, four and a half miles of way.
